Berkeley’s and the far Left’s latest bout of self-marginalization was cunningly planted by Karl Rove, and of course the neocons. On top of the lovely, pointless self-parody from the Berkeley City Council, check out this item, from the same news story:
Code Pink on Wednesday started circulating petitions to put a measure on the November ballot in Berkeley that would make it more difficult to open military recruiting offices near homes, parks, schools, churches libraries or health clinics. The group needs 5,000 signatures to make the ballot.
I mean, that wouldn’t be even remotely effective, even if it were enacted and upheld against a preemption challenge — it’s just an attempt to insult the Marines. Karl and the neocons say, “Bwahahaha! Everything is going just as we planned.”
