Quantcast Vegetarian StarLaura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted In Defense of Animal’s Hope Bohanec and the two discussed San Francisco’s recent declaration of observing Meatless Monday in the city.

Ingraham called the movement “elitist” and suggested other issues such as workers’ wages were more pressing.

While it’s true that economic problems may be a great threat now, promoting less meat certainly isn’t subtracting any funds or time devoted to those issues, as the movement is being promoted by small groups devoted to the interest and no one is being taxed for their hamburgers.

Hope mentions that eating just two meals a week vegetarian has a greater environmental impact than buying all food locally.

Ingraham responds with data of her own, saying the whole methane gas from cow farts study was exaggerated.

Watch the debate and decide for yourself.

Barack Obama: Dijon Mustard Burger Whipping Boy

Obama, Biden eat lunch in Arlington

President Barack Obama and Vice Pres Joe Biden recently had lunch at Ray’s Hell Burger in Arlington, Virginia.

Though some would look at this as the President showing he’s a regular guy, eating at a local diner, Obama and his second leading boy did not score points with conservatives. Why? You see, Obama, ordered a cheeseburger with “dijon” mustard, which was viewed as elitist.

So while talk show conservatives Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, and Rush Limbaugh Show guest host Mark Steyn have beaten Obama for his elitist condiment, we decided there’s no better time to give him a whipping for his choice of meal as well.

A hamburger? Really? In this age of obesity and health care crisis, that he even said can be greatly tackled by encouraging Americans to change their diet, which includes more fruits and vegetables, and he orders a hamburger with cheese.

Yeah, he admitted to liking a steak every once in awhile. Does this mean he has to flaunt his cow indulgences for the entire world to see and imitate?

There could have easily been Pres and Vice Pres male bonding over a whole wheat pasta without meatballs dish, a fresh salad, heck, even a bean burrito, tortilla chips and salsa.

But Obama chose beef that day. And that’s why we currently have a beef with him.
