   Davis, CA - Could there be a Slovak conspiracy in ASUCD? Consider the striking resemblence between the flag on the right (the flag of Slovakia), and the flag on the left, (the ASUCD Christian Democrat Party)!

   When approached for comment, Christian Democrat leader Subcommandant Ostrowski noted that he was sure "presiel som veverichkoo" could be a good slogan.
   "First the destruction of Czechoslovakia, now ASUCD!!" bemoaned ASUCD Director of External Affairs, James Schwab, when approached on the subject.
   Emosnail correspondants (seen here standing on top of a tank in Slovakia*) report that "presiel som veverichkoo" is Slovak for "I just ran over a squirrel."

   Emosnail's main Slovak correspondant, Branislav Ciberej, could not be reached for comment, but he is probably making an extensive report on the subject in this video.


Balancing the Force in ASUCD
   Originally, there was Darth Lloyd, whose dark intentions for ASUCD were clearly evident. Somehow he even managed to finagle his way onto the liberal Lead party despite being an obvious republican. Darth Lloyd brought us his apprentices, Justice Raff, who wasn't quite evil enough, and then Darth Laabs. In fact, the exact moment Laabs crossed over to the Dark Side has been documented.
   "I learned a lot from him. I learned about the power of the bylaws, and his knowledge of the bylaws was strong. However, he was dispatched ... to Berkeley, where they have cookies that make people have feelings of dread," related Laabs on the subject of Lloyd.
   More recently, after being deposed from the self-proclaimed position of ASUCD Pope, and left for politically dead, Darth Harms has reemerged as a new member of hte ASUCD sith by several accounts. Laabs reports "his current plans involve more duct tape, and I believe, the popeship of SGAO." Harms rolemodel in ASUCD however, Comptroller Kai "Cromwell" Savaree-Ruess has not generally had the Sith title applied to him.
   And finally, most recently, Ostrowski of the Slovak Christian party has declared his sithship. This brings currently identified ASUCD sith to 3. Ostrowski speculated that are are probably actually about five, noting that there are both liberal and conservative ones. Though many assume there can only be two Sith present at a time, Sith expert Sean Wallitch informs us that there in fact can be many, vying with eachother for power.
   Ostrowski reports that since he thinks a sith name should describe the person, he is going to take on the sith name of "Darth Steve."
   When asked to speculate as to who else might be Sith, both "Darth Steve" & Darth Laabs noted that Senator Molnar, whose ascension to the Senate was regarded with tremendous dread a year ago, has turned out to be "too good natured." Savaree-Ruess's name was mentioned but "he just hangs out with Chris Harold all the time" according to Ostrowski.
