Does the fact that there’s a not insignificant couple of religions that look unfavorably upon the consumption of pork make this a more accurate comparison than you perhaps intended?

There’s a lot of people that may have walked into the voting booth and said, “I read in a book (or have been told repeatedly) that Ham is an abomination unto the Lord”. You can make an effort to separate church and state in your government, but it’s awfully tough to keep out of a curtained voting booth.

You’re also ignoring the militant vegetarians. Sure, I would have walked in and thought “Bacon? Not for me, but whatever.” Some people would probably be inclined to say “No food with a face! MEAT IS MURDER!” and voted in line with their fervent moral standards.

I find it funny that you used pokr as an analogy because this clearly is a sausage issue.

Me, I prefer hickory smoked bacon to ham.

And I’ll definitely be voting NO on 8. I want to wear a bridesmaid’s dress but once in my life and Lord willing, it’ll be at Showcase’s wedding.

So, water bill paid, and I made it to work not too much later than I normally would have. Tomorrow is election day. If you haven’t already voted early, don’t forget to get out and do it. If you’re in California, voteNo on 8.
