Vegetarian Star

Does a plant-based diet guarantee you the ability to kick Stephen Colbert‘s arse at push-ups when you’re 80 years old?

Maybe not, but former General Motors vice chairman Bob Lutz put the satirical talk show host to shame when they went head to head, leaving Colbert red-faced and out of breath and Lutz as steady as a sedan on cruise control.

Saturday Night Live chose to poke fun of potential Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney in a skit where he “claimed to be interested in things we know he is not interested in.”

Like animal welfare, for instance.

The skit touted Romney as both the future “cat-neutering president” and the “cock-fighting president,” reminding those that follow a politician’s record on animal rights about an all too heartbreaking incident in 1983 when Romney allegedly took a trip to Canada with a dog strapped to the roof of the car.

This hasn’t stopped her from hiring a vegetarian, although most of us would rather see him in a better position than that of a BUTCHER!
