The Rivier College Republicans also received a private tour of the Capitol Building and were personally escorted to the CPAC conference. The Rivier College Republicans also met and had their photos taken with Senator John Sununu. Visiting Washington, D.C. and attending CPAC gave the Rivier College Republicans many experiences that most people may never have. The future is bright for the Rivier College Republicans.

Hillary Clinton Plants Questions



Is Hillary cheating? Can she not handle real questions on her own? Do we want somebody who plants questions because she is too afraid to handle real ones as our President?

Maybe that's one of the many reasons why she is dropping in the polls.

Meeting Mayor Rudy Giuliani

The Rivier College Republicans carved pumpkins for our college's Halloween Extravaganza.






Mayor Rudy Giuliani was in Nashua, NH this week, and a couple of us went to see him. He gave a short speech on his famous "12 Commitments."

After speaking, he met with some people and answered questions. We were lucky enough to meet him and have photos with him.

Hillary Scariest Candidate

Hillary Clinton, in a poll by the Associated Press-Ipsos, was voted as the candidate who would be the scariest Halloween costume.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,305861,00.html



But, what's really scary is Hillary's horrific history.
Robert M. Duncan, a journalist from HumanEvents.com, writes about Hillary, "according to a book written by two veteran New York Times reporters, Hillary in 1992 listened in on secretly-recorded phone conversations of political opponents. But what is truly amazing is that, while she is eager and willing to listen in on political opponents, she has fought against giving our intelligence experts the tools they need to monitor terrorists who might be calling to activate their sleeper cells in the United States.
It is a stunning stance. Here is an individual who is willing to listen into conversations conducted by political opponents, and yet, as she vies to be our next President, she opposes conducting surveillance against terrorists as they plan to kill Americans. Can she possibly be serious?
Earlier this year, she said that she would “of course” support funding for the troops. But then she turned around and voted against emergency funding for our men and women in uniform. And when MoveOn.org went so far as to attack the loyalty of our commander in Iraq, General David Petraeus, Hillary was in the small minority who voted against a Senate resolution condemning the vicious smear.
The pattern holds on issue after issue. She’s shifted her position on using strong interrogation techniques on terrorists. She is seeking advice from Sandy Berger, a man who admitted to stealing and destroying classified national security documents. She refuses to give straight answers on questions about how she would keep rogue nations like Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
The question ultimately is whether Hillary is more serious about our safety or about winning her election."

No Flag for Obama

Barack Obama, the motivational speaker in a politician's costume, refuses to wear an American flag pin. Obama, who accomplished hardly anything during his time in office, says that he "won't wear that pin on my chest."

Obama thinks (no oxymoron intended) that it is "cliche" to show one's patriotism by proudly displaying their support by wearing an American flag pin. Obama thinks that he is more of a patriot by not wearing the pin.

By using that logic, those who wear a cross around their necks aren't true Christians. No, those people, who are proud to wear the cross because it means something to them, are just being cliche.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,299439,00.html

The next President of the United States should be proud to wear the American flag. The next President should not criticize people for publicly displaying their support of something that means a lot to them, and calling it cliche to do so.

Yet, what does Obama have to display that he is proud of? Not much.

"He has led no causes, fought no major legislative battles in the past two years he has been in the Senate, and seems to be deeply risk-adverse to getting into a principled fight about anything larger than himself.” - Donald Lambro - The Washington Times - 12/14/06
