Card carrying Republican from California, who has been a vegetarian for over 25 years. Can't stand Al Sharpton or Algore. Drive a Lincoln Gator, because it pulls my boat.

I'm probably moderate or conservative, but to talk about cars doesn't have anything to do with it.
A friend, who has owned European cars for years along with most of his family, bought a top of the line new GM flagship car, the Corvette. He was wanting one for a long time.
Turns out it had to go to the shop a few times and now he want to get rid of it and get a foreign car, because stats show they are more reliable.
I've never liked the way American cars are marketed (based on the latest fads, if the model is not successful then ditch it and change the model name next time) which is part of the reason I believe Japanese and European cars are popular.
If I had a lot of money I wouldn't have any problem buying them, but I need something reliable for the price.

I'm a vegetarian and am quite conservative. For the record, my Japanese truck was made entirely in America, not Mexico or Canada like some "American" cars are. Being a healthier, less cruel person transcends political affiliations.

i got this message from this person earlier today, it gives you some sort of clue where he's coming from...planet Mars....
From: John Q. Republican
Subject: You are wrong.
Message: Humans were meant to eat meat. Humans have eaten meat for centuries. It's in the bible. God gave man DOMINION OVER ANIMALS. Do you not believe in God?
As for animal rights, the Idea is SO rediculous. Humans will NEVER stop eating meat. Vegans and Vegetarians will ALWAYS be an infinitesimal percentage of the human population. Read the bible "God gave man DOMINION OVER ANIMALS." Animals are supposed to be LOWER than humans. That's why they're stupid.
I'm eating a BIG ******* bag of pork rinds as I'm typing this. For every animal you don't eat I WILL EAT THREE!
-----cut------
What a srange person this is, how on earth did he learn to type in a straight jacket ?

I'm a 100%raw vegan, and am so for health reasons, not because I love animals or because it's trendy.
I *do* drive a used toyota camry. *shrug* What can I say? I wanted a quality, long lasting vehicle. Toyota has ford and chevy squarely beaten in that regard. If American made was just as good, I would shell out the extra fundulation for it. Alas...*sigh*.
I'm not a conservative, liberal, cenerist or a moderate.
I'm a Libertarian, just like Neal Boortz and Clint Eastwood:

Make my day!
Namaste.

That's pretty funny about the cars - get in yours and take a little tour of the hospital and lawyer office parking lots. That's where you'll find the bastions of conservative politics, and where you'll find almost all Lexus, Mercedes, BMW's, etc.
But to answer your question, there are vegetarians of all political persuasions.

I'm sort of conservative. I live in Canada and our conservatives are "lighter" than yours are.
I think Al gore is a fool, Michael Moore is selective with the truth and Al Sharpton is quite a weener. I am pro-stem cell, pro-christian, pro-gay rights, pro-choice moderate. I don't drive, i am a vegetarian, and think global warming is baloney.
I am also opposed to the death penalty but think it's great to see murderers sent to jail for 25 to life.

to answer your question, I am vegetarian, and about as conservative as you can get. I don't get involved in politics, cuz I don't agree with any of them. But I go to church every week, belive in saving sex for marriage, belive abortion is murder (no letters on this please) and many, many other things that make me about as conservative as you get.
so, y es.. we do exist.. in fact, I know a ton of people just like me (conservative vegetarians).
I do not believe it is hating america to drive a foriegn car. America is built on consumer options. That's the whole point of our economy. The consumer gets to chose which product (i..e.. car) he likes best.
I drive a Mazda Protege. That does not make me unpatriotic OR liberal.

Hmpf. Shows you how much YOU know.
I consider myself a Democrat, but due to the fact that I staunchly practice my Roman CATHOLIC religion, I tend to be conservative about many issues - including abortion and stem cell research.
Yes, I drive a Honda because American cars are not as reliable....
Insane? I'm insane about saving the environment (I recycle), about living a healthy life (which is why I'm a vegetarian) and about helping the less fortunate - which is something that the Republicans cannot claim that they do with a straight face.
So before you come pointing fingers over here and calling people insane, realize that there are three pointing back at you.
Cheers.

Another young rube, talking off the top of his head?
My wife's a vegetarian and a Dem. She drives a Japanese car, a 4-yr old Honda Pilot which I leased (that was assembled, parts made in Ohio.. that's the USA... P.S. - many American cars are now made in Canada or Mexico). She was duped by the Al Gore movie, like many who see it -- as he speaks of his 8yrs in the White House (damaging on this issue) in half-a-sentence, in a 2 hr movie. My spouse doesn't care of Al Sharpton. She also can eat a salad -- and want the Capitol Punishment of just about any murderer, rapist or kidnapper publicized. In fact, when it's ALL boiled down.. I'd term her a "conservative Democrat".
As a meat-eating republican myself.. I can absolutely say to you, that you need a CLUE and a shave. (You also can use a dictionary- to try to spell a word like "limo" correctly.) Now, go back to watching dopey chat-shows where 4 goofballs sit around a table and recite articles they'd read - to people like you that ingest stereotypes and squeeze-out 2-3% cognition of what's going on around you.
