Chelsea Clinton a vegetarian?
Best of the Web Today ^ | 05/21/08 | James Taranto

"People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has posted its online ballot to determine 2008's Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrity," reports the Chicago Tribune's Mark Caro:

Just give PETA your name and e-mail address (which wouldn't happen to be the point, now, would it?), and you can vote among more than 180 sexy vegetarians listed to succeed 2007's sexy-veg winners Carrie Underwood and "Tonight Show" bandleader Kevin Eubanks . . . Did we mention these vegetarians are sexy? We're talking Alicia Silverstone, Tobey Maguire, Naomi Watts, Casey Affleck, Christie Brinkley, Andre 3000, Natalie Portman, Joaquin Phoenix, Chelsea Clinton . . . the list goes on. Hey, hold on a second. Chelsea Clinton? The same Chelsea Clinton whose mother loves nothing more than to grab a shotgun, blast some animals and eat them is a vegetarian? To put it another way: Hillary Clinton, who won the votes of huge majorities of Appalachian animal-lovers (in the gustatory sense, of course), raised a vegetarian?

This is a scandal. It calls into serious question Mrs. Clinton's credentials as a hunter, or at least her ability as a spokesman for hunters. So let's give Barack Obama a boost among carnivorous Montanans and South Dakotans: Click here and vote for Chelsea.

I have never heard the Chelsea is a vegetarian? Is it true? Also, candidates are always pictured eating this, that, and the other thing on the campaign trail, as are their spouses and supporters. Chelsea has been on of the biggest campaigners for her mom. Any pictures of her eating non-vegetarian food? Such as a philly Cheesesteak when in PA, or a Sasuage in Chicago? Or a cheeseburger somewhere else?

She can eat lizzards if she wants to as long as it isn’t back in the White House.

She’s more likely to be a vagetarian.

Hillary posing with fire arms or drinking shots of booze would always strike me as similar to the eating bizarre food stunts on Survivor - something unpleasant she has to do to try to win the big prize.

Her parents, Hillary and Web, are/were both nutbags. Why should you expect she would be any different?

She ate so much arugula that it drove the price up and made Obama angry, bitter and clinging to his tofu.

She's in good company. Pol Pot, Adolf Hitler, Genghis Khan, Charles Manson, Cain...

Yep. She's a vegetarian alright.

Always remember to put Adolf Hitler on that list of vegetarians (ref: John Toland’s HITLER).

I’m sure Chelsea will grow up to be a Republican, as well. She’s just keeping her mouth shut out of misguided respect, until her parents pass away. ;)

I’m not a vegetarian because I love animals. I’m a vegetarian because I hate vegetables. I want to kill them and eat them!
