Take a Moment to Remember
Posted by Michael Ubbens on September 11th, 2008
From an enewsletter post at Susquehanna University:
“As students wake up and faculty return to campus on 9/11, they will notice 2,977 flags placed in grass near the fountain outside of Deg. Each flag commemorates a life lost seven years ago. The flags will remain in the grass for a few days to allow the campus community to take time to reflect on the events of the tragic day. The SU College Republicans acquired the flags, however a number of SU students helped the club members place them in the ground. Thank you to everyone who helped! ”
Please take a moment of silence to remember those whose lives were lost on this tragic day. No matter what political affliliation, this is a day to remember our friends and loved ones.
Sarah Palin
Posted by Jacey Paladino on September 10th, 2008
Anyone that knows me knows that I am as anti-feminist as it is possible to get. I hate the idea of breaking up the family unit all in the name of “women empowerment” and abortion on demand. I hate the “chickification”, as Rush Limbaugh terms it, of the male population because the feminazis take offense at men acting like men.
Recently, however, I have felt like a feminist. I am almost ashamed to admit it. Almost…The reason why I can admit that freely and hold my head high is two words: Sarah Palin.
Common Courtesy…

Over the past few weeks, I have been reading all of the comments on the PACR blog, and I have a few things to say:
1. Please refrain from attacks that are directed toward any particular person. I understand that many of you have strong opinions about certain issues/individuals, but I will not allow this blog to turn into a negative free-for-all. You can properly express your opinions without the use of dergatory speech. A certain decorum is expected on this site, and comments that are considered to be especially distasteful will not be accepted.
2. Please make sure that the comments you are making are actually associated with the post you are commenting on. Questions that have nothing to do with the topic at hand will be removed, as they seem to do nothing but cause trouble and detract from the original purpose of the blog, which is to create discussion around the topic at hand.
3. Please remember that people are busy. If you post a comment and do not receive an immediate response, you are not being ignored; the author of the post is probably just making sure that their school work (which should be the top priority of any college student), is being completed.
All of that being said, remember this: We’re all adults… I shouldn’t even have to post something like this, but I feel it necessary. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact the PA Federation of College Republicans at pacollegerepublicans@gmail.com
Sincerely,
Jessica Thompson
2nd Vice Chairwoman

Obama/Biden?
Posted by Jacey Paladino on August 27th, 2008
Obama selected Biden for VP. Does Barry remember that Joe said he wasn’t ready?
“The Presidency is not something that lends itself to on the job training.”
Mr. Biden, you are a political opportunist. Why would you say yes to being the running mate of someone who you don’t think can cut it?
Guest Post: Lou Barletta for Congress
Posted by Lou Barletta on August 24th, 2008
As I write this, it’s just over 75 days until Election Day.
And I couldn’t be more excited and upbeat about how my campaign for the 11th Congressional District seat is going.
To date, we’ve received contributions from people in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. These aren’t the big PAC checks my opponent is receiving (mostly from the subprime mortgage , banking, and insurance industries, which he’s supposed to regulate), but from “average” American citizens. Even more encouraging are the notes and letters that accompany those contributions.
The Real Barack Obama
Posted by Kristin Hills on August 21st, 2008
The last time I checked, this country was founded on Christian principles. Our founders were great people in the faith and that is why our country has had great morals for the most part (minus some of the not so great leaders that we’ve had). When I saw this video, I was in complete shock. The last time that I watched the news, Barack Obama called himself a “Christian.” He completely contradicts himself in the video. I seriously don’t know when to believe Obama anymore. Here’s the website to check out the video: http://www.phforamerica.com. If Obama gets elected in November as President, what are his beliefs going to be when he gets into the White House since he keeps on changing?
Ann Coulter on the John Edwards Sex Scandal

As always, Ann Coulter says it best….
EVEN BY TRIAL LAWYER STANDARDS, EDWARDS A REAL SLEAZEBAG
August 13, 2008
The good news: DNA testing has confirmed that John Edwards is not the father of Rielle Hunter’s baby.Senatorial Privilege: The Chappaquiddick Cover-up by Leo Damore, the evidence suggested that Kopechne died gasping for breath in the car while Teddy Kennedy was busy trying to convince various people to say that they were driving his car.
The bad news: The father is Bill Clinton.
Why I am a Republican
Posted by Chris Huether on August 18th, 2008
I recieved this from a friend a while back!
A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age, she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat, and among other liberal ideals, was very much in favor of higher taxes to support more government programs, in other words, redistribution of wealth.
She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican, a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his. One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the need for more government programs. The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He responded by asking how she was doing in school.
Pics! John McCain in Wilkes Barre/Scranton
Posted by Kathleen Klein on August 18th, 2008
Mike Ubbens and myself were able to go to a John McCain event about a month ago in Wilkes Barre/Scranton. Our crew of College Republicans were interviewed by local papers, NPR (did anyone hear me on NPR??), and The Wall Street Journal. Pretty exciting! I finally got the pictures on to the computer. It’s a good thing I am NOT going to school for photography. The only video I got was McCain blowing his nose so thats obviously not going up. Anyway here are the pictures for your viewing pleasure 
I found these 2 pics:
My advice: Get out there! Get to events! If you feel comfortable do some interviews but always be polite, educated on the topic and well spoken Check out this picture. CR’s totally took over the stage!
