Miller Brewing Company's blog blitz

The following was left as a comment from Miller Brewing Company,concerning the post, "Amnesty and citizenship for everybody". Actually the comment was left more than once, but I have deleted all but one. I understand from Michelle Malkin that other bloggers are getting similar canned comments.

I thought you folks would be interested in receiving the following official statement from Miller Brewing Company regarding the immigration issue:

Miller Brewing Company has never supported illegal immigration and we have always supported the full enforcement of current U.S. laws.

Miller did not sponsor the Labor Day immigration march held in Chicago.

Going forward, Miller will closely review all requests for support from community and charitable organizations to ensure that we are not indirectly funding or associating our name with advocacy efforts on the immigration issue.

We plan to stick to the business of brewing, marketing and selling great beer.

Thanks for your interest in this topic.

I'm not the only one posting on the subject of corporations who are helping illegal immigrants in their cause. The following based their aticles on a Chicago Tribune article, and I quote:

Now, march advertisements feature not just the organizing committee's trademark blue globe but Miller's logo and a Spanish translation of its "Live Responsibly" slogan, a company effort to build goodwill among Latinos.

"Immigrant rights march brought to you by Miller", from The Uncooperative Blogger
"Miller Beer sponsors Illegal Immigrant March", from Morning Coffee
"Immigrant Rights March Brought To You By Miller", from Common Sense America
"Miller Low Life", from Committees of Correspondence

Others have more on the subject.
The Chicago Tribune again, via Digger's Realm:

... as demonstrators march from Chinatown to House Speaker Dennis Hastert's (R-Ill.) Batavia office this weekend, they will have Miller Brewing Co., as a sponsor. The brewer has paid more than $30,000 for a planning convention, materials and newspaper ads publicizing the event.

There is even an official boycott website, at Porgie's Political Bullsheet.

Cop The Truth has updates, "Miller Sinking Fast".
BlackFive has a few words of advice for Miller.
"Just say no to Miller Beer and illegal aliens", from Right Voices
Bill's Bites at Old War Dogs (love them)

It seems Miller may have made a mistake by soliciting the illegal alien consumers and, um, alienating their legal American customers.
