Victory! Berkley City Council Cuts & Runs Like Good Little Liberals!

J.J. Jackson | February 14, 2008 

Liberals cut and run when they are actually faced with having to fight for something. History bears this out and we can add another instance to the list:

BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) – City council members who were criticized for telling Marine recruiters they don’t belong here have moderated their position, saying they oppose the Iraq war but support the troops.
The Berkeley City Council voted two weeks ago to send a letter to a downtown recruitment station advising the Marines they were not welcome.After a marathon session that stretched into early Wednesday, the council decided against sending the letter, saying it recognizes recruiters’ right to be in Berkeley. The council members say they still strongly oppose the war and the recruitment of young people, but “deeply respect and support” the men and women of the armed forces.

…

Councilwoman Linda Maio said the council opposes recruitment, not the military. “It’s behavior that we oppose, not the people,” she said.

Yeah, yeah, we’ve heard this all before. The result is now basically more statements of “we support our baby killing soldiers who are too stupid to know they are being used by the imperialist United States”. Uh, thanks?

This is a major retreat from their prior stance which called for the Marines to get the hell out of town. Why? Because not even their buddies Code Pink, the commie anti-troop mommies, could field enough foot soldiers to combat the wave that was descending upon them.

Just look at the poll we are currently running here. When asked whether or not people agree with the liberals in Berkley, the results are astounding:

Does the Federal Government telling the Catholic Church it MUST provide contraceptive services to its employees through their health insurance plans violate the First Amendment?

As of me writting this:
87% HELL NO
6% No
7% Yes
When 93% stand against with you it’s hard to fight a battle. Especially when you are a bunch of cowards.

    Victory will only come when the Berkely community says
    ‘thank god we’ve got Marines stationed here.’

    The only reason the City of Berkley is changing their position is because their feet were held to the fire. That’s the difference between them and members of the military. We are willing to die for what we believe in.

    Berkley – The newest ‘hot spot’ for terrorist cells!!
