College Park Democrats
About the Author
Anyone who goes to or has gone to College Park, join up! Don't forget to vote.

I know, there have already been posts about Mr. Colbert running for President. But what do you all think about this? I'm kind of split, myself.

On one hand, I want to be amused. Steve Colbert is running for President. Just saying that makes you laugh. I can't believe he's actually taking it this far, even if he is only running in South Carolina. The man is hilarious, and you have to love his satire style. Running on both sides? He'd better hurry up and have a sex scandal so he can assimilate himself into the Republican party.

On the other (more serious) hand, I am offended. He's making a mockery of the POTUS elections and obviously does not actually care about solving problems in our country or mending foreign policy, et cetera. Not to mention, all of the voters out there who don't take the election too seriously and will vote for Colbert are probably going to be Democrats, no? If he keeps this up, he could take votes away from the Democratic candidate. Not that it would matter because of the damned electoral college, but anyway.

I'm interested in hearing what the other Presidential hopefuls will have to say about this...Who here would seriously consider voting for Colbert?

Thoughts?

Hi, everybody. I have started making Barack Obama t-shirts. They don't have his logo or anything, but they're cheap!  So, general information:

The shirts can be either tank tops or t-shirts, and they come in MOST colors and sizes. The lettering on the shirts also comes in MOST colors.

If you would like one, please contact me through the site.  I am making them on an as-ordered basis, so feel free to choose your own colors as well as sizes.  I can't guarantee that I will have the colors you want, but it is likely. :)  Each shirt will be eight dollars- that will be enough for me to break even on the t-shirt costs, take care of shipping, and send the rest to the Barack Obama campaign!

I am posting the designs & their descriptions in EP; these are just random colors I chose to make my samples.  I realize that the black-and-white tank top sucks ass, but I have since learned how to use an iron all by myself (and without scorching the fabric!), and I promise you that I shall not send you an effed-up shirt.

Just wanted to let anyone in the Maryland/D.C. area know that Senator Obama will be speaking at a rally at Prince George's Community College tomorrow. Well, actually, today. The tenth. Go. Support him!

My roommate's sick. I really don't want to get sick. What cold medicines are the best? I need a magic cure, here...
They're finally being allowed actual counsel:

"U.S. officials have argued in court papers against granting lawyers access to the high-value detainees without special security rules, fearing that attorney-client conversations could reveal classified elements of the CIA's secret detention program and its controversial interrogation tactics."

Yeah, I guess I'd be pretty concerned if I were a CIA official using questionable and unconventional methods of interrogation, too.   Read More »

I don't care if they're all Christian, the entire country is not. They had no business asking that question- this is supposed to be a secular government. And Yankees vs. Red Sox? What the hell?! Fuck them. And fuck them for bringing up Hill's husband. They had no right to do that, either. Or Obama's smoking record. I am so indescribably angry right now.
