Berkeley Backs Down

Bluto notes: [1]

From San Francisco’s KNTV [2]:

BERKELEY, Calif. — As six Republican senators devised a plan to yank $2.3 million in federal funding for Berkeley programs, the mayor of the famously liberal city apologized Wednesday for his hard stance against a Marine recruiting center.

Looks like talk isn’t always cheap, especially when the talk involves crapping all over your own country and the people who put their lives on the line to protect it. But wait, there’s more:

“That letter will probably be pulled back and maybe more moderate language will be put in place which is appropriate I think,” said Berkeley mayor Tom Bates.

Well, you could try moderating the language, Master Bates, but the only language real Americans want to read in the letter is your own resignation, swiftly followed by those of each of the stupid jackasses on the city council who voted for your original resolution.

Indeed. And yes, I think these idiots need to be made an example.
