not tickled pink over berkeley's actions...
...showdown in Berkeley between pro-military and anti-war groups...
For a picture of Mayor Tom Bates in a fetching pink beret, click here. Frankly, his city should protest that sartorial violation as well. In double-quick time.
The City Council will consider rescinding its letter on Tuesday, when pro-military and anti-war groups are planning to stage all-day protests outside City Hall.
Mayor Tom Bates is also urging a statement clarifying the city's support of U.S. troops despite its opposition to White House policy in Iraq.
Berkeley leaders have said they are just voicing the position of residents of the city, where sentiment against the Iraq war is strong now, as it has been in the past. The city and its university were hotbeds of protest against the Vietnam War in the 1960s.
These Code Pinkos are sickening. I linked to this video so that others could see it too. Thanks for sharing it Piper!
