FREEP THIS POLL!!!!

Here's the story:

Student Senator Who Sponsored Pro-Flag Resolution May Be Impeached!

The September 19, 2001 edition of the NCRepublicans.com newsletter contained a story about a pro-flag resolution that was defeated by the Arizona State University student senate. The resolution was introduced because Sodexho Marriott, a vendor contracted by the university, removed American Flags posted by students in the campus' Sahuaro Hall Market. In response, Student Senator Oubai Shahbandar (who happens to be of Syrian descent) introduced Senate Bill 29, entitled: "A Resolution in Support of ASU Students' God Given Right for the Open Display of Patriotism and Love of Country." On September 18th, the Associated Students of Arizona State University voted 9-12 to reject the resolution (9 for, 6 against 6 abstaining).

Now, the real kicker: NCRepublicans has received a copy of an emergency meeting notice which stated the following: "Due to pressure from various students and faculty in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, I am hereby calling an emergency meeting of the CLASCC executive committee to discuss and vote on the impeachment of Oubai Shahbandar from his seat on the ASASU Senate.

Complete details, including the text of the defeated pro-flag resolution, a list of the student senators who voted for and against the resolution, and more are available at http://www.ncrepublicans.com.
