College Republicans Stand By Their Beliefs

Gotta love this Democrat. :-)

Blagojevich Asks For Anti-Blagojevich Shirt from College Republicans

URBANA, Ill. (AP) -- Democratic Governor Rod Blagojevich could have been snippy. He could have been terse.

Instead, he had some fun with a group of College Republicans who came out to his appearance at the University of Illinois yesterday.

The group wore blue T-shirts emblazoned with an anti-Blagojevich slogan (Blagojevich sucks!) to protest a decision that could put some of the Illinois Student Assistance Commission's student loan portfolio up for sale.

The governor announced the program and touted its potential to provide student aid to more students. Then he looked at the College Republicans and said he wanted a T-shirt. In Blagojevich's words, "I promise you if I get a blue one like that, I'll wear it when I go out jogging."

The College Republicans quickly handed up a blue T-shirt and posed for pictures with the governor.
