“Liberal Lion” Elena Kagan?

Posted 5/10/10 by Katie Zavadski

Obama’s Monday morning announcement came as a surprise to no one. Long rumored as a frontrunner for SCOTUS, Kagan was probably seen as a safe choice in his eyes – after all, she’s young, and she’s already been through confirmation hearings once. The former dean of HLS has done a fine job as Solicitor General, and is regarded by most as a great legal mind. So what’s the problem?

in defense of chivalry

Posted 5/10/10 by Nikko Pomata

By now you’ve probably read, or at least heard of, HRC VP Rachel Wagley’s recent Crimson op-ed A Defense of Manliness, in which she argues for ideals that all of us Democrats simply despise, such as chivalry and nobility.

Oh, wait, we’re not opposed to those. (To debunk another popular misconception, we also don’t engage in weekly baby-eating rituals. They’re once-monthly.)

THE DEMS WIN!

Posted 4/17/10 by Jason Berkenfeld

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

April 16, 2010

This evening, for the first time in 5 years, the Harvard College Democrats defeated the Harvard Republican Club in our annual Bipartisan Paintball Brawl! In an epic 7-game series, the Dems came out on top with a score of 4 to 3. This historic victory was a team effort, with every member demonstrating the highest standards of athletic ability. Indeed, the solidarity and camaraderie of the Dems’ team was inspiring. We left our hearts on the playing field, and we have the bruises and battle wounds to prove it.

For everyone who says Democrats can’t handle guns, this victory is for you.

For everyone who thinks Democrats are weak and fragile, this victory is for you.

And for everyone who predicted another Republican victory in the Bipartisan Paintball Brawl, this victory is for you especially.

On this rainy evening in April, there is a single refrain emanating from the lips of Harvard’s largest partisan organization: yes we did. Yes we did.

“This is only a sign of things to come,” said Jason Q. Berkenfeld, President of the Harvard College Democrats. “The odds were against us tonight, but we pulled out the victory nonetheless. Without a doubt, that will be the case in November as well. You can bet on it.”
