Why is it that Republicans of the female persuasion are always so good looking? On TV and at the California College Republican convention... outstanding!

Your photo is a fake. No body piercing. Can't have a legitimate protest without self-immolation. Besides, they look too happy.

I do not know. But being a member of College Republicans at Mizzou, I do NOT look a gift horse in the mouth. They are waaaaay more attractive than the hippie liberal chicks around here. My guess is the hygiene factor.

Oh yeah, gj CR!! College Republicans r0x0r!!

I suspect that Republican women are demonstrably more lovely that democrat/leftists because their souls are more beautiful.

What, you don't like hairy armpits, nipple rings, and the smell of patchouli?

Your photo is a fake. No body piercing. Can't have a legitimate protest without self-immolation.

Or defocating on the sidewalk!
Yep. It was a fake alright.

Berkeley's left must have been in "shock and awe" upon seeing this fearless group waving flags instead of burning them on campus.

First Baghdad, now Berkeley! :)

Can Hollywood be next?

I got a phone call from a student at Berkeley Sunday. In the background was so much shouting, screaming, laughing, whooping and partying that I thought he was calling from a toga party.

When he said the noise was from "some Republican rally," I thought he was being sarcastic.

Most excellent reality. Party on.

In recent years, the Berkeley college Republican chapter has grown and thrived. Once only a few dozen in number, the chapter now boasts more than 500 members and is one of the biggest student organizations on campus.

This is GREAT now if we can make similar inroads in the Berkeley faculty.

WooHoo! Straight into the belly of the beast! I'll bet the sight of the American flag being proudly waved caused some of the Berkeley crowd to have seizures.
