Also -- it's funny how this article mentions GOP voters who wear Birkenstocks, while in another article in today's NYT about Birkenstock sandals, the entire slant is that no one other than liberals wear Birkenstocks!

From article:
But Dreher's greatest passion is the devotional approach to eating and food that he considers essential to the crunchy-con way. After he spelled out his principles in a National Review Online article called "Birkenstocked Burkeans," Dreher writes, he was deluged with responses like, "We thought we were the only evangelical Christians in the world with a copy of 'The Moosewood Cookbook.' " He introduces several evangelicals who say they are organic farmers "because we're Christians." And he raves about the European Slow Food movement and about "The Supper of the Lamb," a classic 1967 cookbook and devotional by an Episcopal priest, Robert Farrar Capon.

This whole "Crunchy Cons" subject is one of the lamest topics ever manufactured. Never has so much hot air been generated about a more meaningless topic. Everything about it - from the fundamental concepts to the very name - is a huge bore. This is the first and last time I ever intend to comment about it anywhere.

It's funny how shallow liberals have to create classifications that everybody is supposed to conform to.
Could Birks just be another comfortable shoe??....Gasp!.... the horror!

LOL...thanks for your post.
But, I disagree with you. I think it is quite an interesting topic. Most Dem posters would never imagine such voters even exist. And, I think most Dem politicians are in ther dark about these voters, too. But I always knew they were out there. So, I really enjoyed reading this article.

re your post #9 - ROTFLMAO! See, I knew it! And, you are not alone on this forum. Believe me, I have talked to enough posters on this forum over the years to know that!

...right-wing hippies (Groan) Typical MSM dogma. Plenty of "right wingers" in this country but no "left wingers" Lot's of "right wing" talk radio, no "left wing" talkers. Plenty of "right wing" congressman, no "left wing" congressmen"
I could go on and on, but you get the point. Just one of the 1000+ reasons you can't trust the media.

Maybe that part is not you, but I can tell you this: food threads tend to get a ton of hits on this forum.
