Happy Democrats' Day!

Or is it April Fool's Day? They're one in the same. On this April 1st, make a promise to not be fooled by the Democrats and their double-speak. Take a look at some of the examples below from The Four Fools. Obama's quotation is actually right...for once.



“We are going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.”
– Hillary Clinton


“Torture is an American value.” – Ted Kennedy

“Why don't we just ask Osama bin -- Osama Obama -- Obama what -- since he won by such a big amount.” – Ted Kennedy


"I actually did vote for the $87 billion, before I voted against it." – John Kerry


“President Bush said he wanted to export American-style democracy and, by God, I think it's working." – Barack Hussein Obama

Pelosi Plotting Amnesty for Illegal Aliens

"But unfortunately, the Democrats are putting together an elaborate con job: using tough-sounding rhetoric while working behind the scenes... to defeat a bipartisan bill that takes a no-amnesty, enforcement-oriented approach..."

-The Washington Times

The Washington Times is talking about the Secure America Through Verification and Enforcement Act of 2007 or SAVE Act of 2007, a bill that will add 8,000 agents to secure our borders and implement systems that will allow employers to verify workers' immigration status.

The Washington Times also said:

"But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the House Democratic leadership are open-borders advocates who want no part of the SAVE Act, and have thus far managed to keep the bill buried..."

And if Pelosi and company have their way, the SAVE Act of 2007 will NEVER get a vote on the floor of the House of Representatives!

But, YOU have the power to STOP this obstruction!

Congressmen Brian Bilbray (R-California) and Heath Shuler (D-North Carolina) initiated what is called a "discharge petition." Under House rules, if a simple majority, 218 Members, sign this discharge petition, the SAVE Act of 2007 will be FORCED to the floor of the House for a fair-up-or-down vote!

Right now, 181 Members have signed this discharge petition and we are only 37 votes short! 38 Members of Congress who actually sponsored the SAVE Act of 2007 have NOT, as of yet, signed the discharge petition!

If these 38 Members simply moved to give the legislation they so proudly sponsored a fair up-or-down vote, this Pelosi-inspired obstruction would be stopped DEAD in its tracks!

And that's where YOU come in!

If you take them to task -- RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT NOW -- they will do the right thing. And if the SAVE Act of 2007 passes, we thwart Pelosi's plans to bring back AMNESTY!

Use the hyperlink below to send your urgent and personalized 40 Blast Fax messages to President George W. Bush, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and the 38 Members of the House of Representatives who sponsored the SAVE Act of 2007 but have not signed the discharge petition to force it to the floor of the House for a fair up-or-down vote!

Tell them they can NOT have it both ways. Tell them they can NOT proudly proclaim their support of common-sense border enforcement legislation to the American people on the one hand and enable those who are trying to kill this bill by their silence on the other!

Is Ted Kennedy Drunk on Tequila?

In keeping with his support of illegal immigrants, Ted Kennedy drank an unknown amount of tequila and called a Spanish-language radio show. He then sang a song...IN SPANISH! He signed off by saying he's "not going to let down" the illegal immigrants. Let's just hope he wasn't calling in while driving near Chappaquiddick.

Not only did the Rivier College Republicans meet and hear top conservative speakers at CPAC and take part in interesting workshops, but some members were also interviewed by NBC and FOX News. 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.

CPAC Photos and Hearing President Bush



President George W. Bush spoke this morning at CPAC. He delivered a powerfully stirring speech that highlighted the ability of the country and the President to stand their ground during difficult times and among liberal criticism of so-called "experts.". He urged Congress to pass the intelligence surveillance program that expires next week, saying that the threat of Al-Qaeda "will not expire next week." President Bush stated that the U.S.A. does not need permission from the world, MoveOn.org, or Code Pink to protect its interests. He went on to state how his tax cuts, strategy in Iraq, and improvements of education has helped make the country a better place to live. He spoke before a packed room, and people gave him a very, very warm reception. A couple peopled shouted "We love you, George!" One student would always say "Yay...[insert point President Bush was trying to make]" For instance, President Bush said we must protect liberty, and this student said, "Yay, liberty!" Students cheered heavily for President Bush as he outlined the accomplishments of his administration. Here are some photos from CPAC.












Yay, blog!

Romney Concedes, McCain Criticized

Political news is swirling here at CPAC. Mitt Romney has decided to end his campaign for president. He said that if he continued his pursuit of the White House, then it would be likely that Mrs. Bill Clinton or Obama would win the presidency. He doesn't want to divide the party and has decided that dropping out would give the best chance of putting a Republican in the White House.

McCain was heavily criticized today at the Omni Shoreham, where CPAC is taking place. People held signs that read, "Republicans Against McCain" and "Fight McCain Amnesty," which refers to McCain's so-called liberal plan for allowing illegal immigrants to become citizens and find work. Pictures and more political news will come later as I'm blogging live from CPAC.
