Update from Berkeley

Remember when Code Pink and the Berkeley City Council took on the U.S. Marines in a head on frontal assault?

Silly hippies. Seems a few Republican Congressman took it the wrong way. They sent a genteel message, “Back off or lose 2.3 million dollars in Federal funding”.

Bullies. Guess who kissed and made up?

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.

Two City Council members vowed to soften their stance as well.

Speak.
