Let's all have a giant steak on Saturday

Granholm’s proclamation, issued at the urging of vegetarian activists, cited the benefits of a plant-based diet and the increasing availability of alternatives to meat and dairy products for vegans and vegetarians. Following a series of “whereases,” Granholm encourages “the residents of this state to choose not to eat meat” on Saturday.

Never mind that she could have chosen any Friday other than tomorrow during Lent* and she would have had two million Catholics already on board.

Granholm's pissed off the Farm Bureau, and at the rate employable people are leaving Michigan she'd better be trying to support the cattle ranchers and pig farmers as much as she can - if Detroit keeps going the way it is, there won't be anything but farmland left soon. I'm really hoping they go through with their plan to have a barbecue on Saturday on the Capitol lawn. The Michigan Senate isn't too happy about it either - they've issued a resolution to counter the proclamation.

So let's support what few Michiganders are actually working to feed our country, and have a giant steak, or burger, or several dozen chicken wings, or half a roasted pig on Saturday. Like you need an excuse.

1 Spokeswoman Liz Boyd tried to restore calm this evening by saying the governor herself is not a vegetarian and is as likely to eat meat on Saturday as any other day (maybe a little more likely if her family ends up in front of the television watching NCAA basketball).

So, aside from being a dumbass, she's a fucking hypocrite, too. Awesome.

2 IIRC, back in 2002 or 3 George Will bemoaned the fact that Granholm would never be able to run for POTUS because of her Canadian birth, further proving what a fool he is

3 Yea, I'm celebrating Meatless Saturday. First I'm going to the CIRCUS (I just please hope there are protesters there ....fingers crossed) then I'm making a chicken chili and my Dad is making a pot roast. I'll try to include meat in my other two meals as well. YEA JENNY! You're the GREATEST!

6 Somebody probably already posted this, but here's Gov. Granholm giving $9 500 000 of taxpayers money to a convicted con man out on parole on Tuesday. He was rearrested on Wednesday.

7 Oops my mistake, it was only 9.1 million dollars.

Clearly Granhlom is not aware that tomorrow is a special holiday.

9 I thought that holiday was March 14. I suppose it makes more sense to have it on a different day, though, so as to not conflict with Pi Day.

10 I am a Redneck and I eat veggies...veggies surrounded by 2 pieces of bread and about 1/2 pound of cooked ground beef and a slice of cheese. Dumbass scrunt.
