"If any vegans came over for dinner, I could whip them up a salad, then explain my philosophy on being a carnivore: If God had not intended for us to eat animals, how come He made them out of meat?"
Hmmm.......here are three choices to guess who said this:
1. An English professor explaining the subtleties of the English language.
2. A sincere 8-year old kid trying to understand from mommy what a "vegan" is.
3. A hopeful for the post of the US President
My choices pretty much gave it away didn't they: the answer is 3. This irrefutable logic comes from the brain of none other than Sarah Palin. I am beginning to think the animals that she hunts may be dying of shame rather than mortal wounds.
I've deleted about three drafts of my rebuttal...but I cannot think of an appropriate one that would sound honest but not derogatory. I think the statement is so absurd that you actually need to think hard to come up with an appropriate response!

Sometimes there is no rebuttal that makes sense when the original arguement is so completely flawed.
Sarah Palin is a comic's dream She provides so much good material.
Do you not know a joke when you hear one?
