In a surprising (yeah, right) move, Berkley city councel reverses decision to send letter telling the US Marines that they are not welcome. Move comes just as 40 house members asked Pres. Bush to recind $2,000,000.00 in earmarks.

I'm sure code pink is appreciative of the city councils decision to sell thier values for a few earmarks.
Oh well...Cindy will get over it and handle it just as well as she handled the death of her son, Casey. (who was a hero to all but her)

All comes down to responsible dissent, of which Berkley is just now learning.
I wonder if the Marines will get thier parking space back?
