National Review obsesses about "crunchy conservatism" in their crunchy blog. Those interested may find it worth a look.

Very interesting -- I tool a quick look and I see Dreher posts on that blog. Maybe he started it. BTW, I never heard of any of this before I read the book review. If someone had mentioned the phrase "crunchy con" to me prior to that, I probably would have thought it a new breakfast cereal! But, since being on FR, I always knew those kind of conservatives exist, and as I said, such an image really goes against the image of conservatives that some Dem bloggers want to promote. Perhaps that's one reason their candidates never win elections these days.

No they want to say that conservatives are a bunch of squares not at all interested in health food, environment and wearing earth shoes. Actually my hippie shoe of choice is okabashis. Cheap and made in the USA.
