Shave their empty heads, wake them at dawn, kick their butts, and send them to the desert

Max Blumenthal, writing for The Nation, spoke to several of those in attendance at the College Republican National Convention in Virginia. Here is my favorite excerpt:

In interviews, more than a dozen conventiongoers explained why it is important that they stay on campus while other, less fortunate people their age wage a bloody war in Iraq. They strongly support the war, they told me, but they also want to enjoy college life and pursue interesting careers. Being a College Republican allows them to do both.

One interviewer said "I'm a fighter, but with words."

Smelling salts, please!

Sorry, Nice Interviewer Man, but I've got frat parties to go to, and, like, dying is so, like, sad. I haven't even begun to live. I can't die now. When would I intern at the Heritage Foundation? And, like, hellloooo, I'm, like, running for treasurer of the Student Union board and rushing Tri Delt this month. Soooorry! See you at Sig Ep later!
