Sarah Palin made no bones about her love of hunting during the 2008 campaign and her new book Going Rogue even devotes a bit to her lack of fondness for vegans and vegetarians. In more than one point in the book she details her love of munching on animal carcasses.
“If any vegans came over for dinner, I could whip them up a salad, then explain my philosophy on being a carnivore,” she wrote. “If God had not intended for us to eat animals, how come He made them out of meat?”
It seems Sarah forgot the little fact that humans are also made of meat as are dogs and cats. Sarah Palin supports cannibalism!
She continues:
“I love meat, I eat pork chops, thick bacon burgers, and the seared fatty edges of a medium-well-done steak. But I especially love moose and caribou. I always remind people from outside our state that there’s plenty of room for all Alaska’s animals — right next to the mashed potatoes.”
Here she shows she’s not original and may want to check the mail for a plagiarism suit. Sarah Palin is just pandering to a fringe base of people with the self-centered juvenile ideals like those of hunting-nutbag Ted Nugent. Did she forget her speechwriter for the 2008 Presidential campaign was vegan?
Leave it to Sarah Palin to alienate any group of people and to make assumptions that vegetarianism is strictly a left-of-center idea.

I admit, I drink way too much coffee even though I drink less now that I once did. At one time I was putting down 8 cups a day of sock juice (brewed coffee) since it was entirely too convenient. I could fill the french press and drink away and not even realize I was on that sixth cup before I had my eighth. I am also somewhat of an artsy-fartsy coffee connoisseur. I make soy lattes throughout the day, though I cut myself off at about 5pm, and occasionally douse them with this flavoring or that syrup.
There are those days when I’m not home and occasionally feel I like throwing down $4 on a cup of coffee. Those days don’t come often as I am pretty tight with my cash. I have been working on a list of coffee houses around Nashville to get your fix and all of those on the list include soymilk in their milk selections and one, DrinkHaus, also offers rice milk and sometimes almond milk.
I always prefer the local coffee houses. To me it always tastes better and I like not knowing exactly what to expect. I always search out a local coffee house when I travel and usually take home a pound from the places I like. Of course Starbucks is on every street but why go to the corporate bean when you can get your swill from a local coffee joint?
If your favorite coffee isn’t on the list let me know and tell me why it’s your favorite.
