I know that having heard about this fiasco, I wish I could have been there.

Well, Berkeley was nice enough to videotape their session, and I managed to upload to YouTube some interesting clips:

Because of the procedures they use, the main resolution asking the Marines to leave (Item 12) was not called to the floor for discussion, it was instead accepted as part of the Constant Calendar.  The real debate was about the parking permit and fee waivers for Code Pink (Item 15).

But before that got started, I did find this interesting clip of Council member Olds, who spoke against Item 12 and recorded her no vote, but still managed to totally trash the Marine Corp in the process.

Yes there it is again.  They can’t get real jobs or go to college so they join the Marines.  Of course, since the office they are protesting is an Officers Recruiting Center, that is pure nonsense, as they are specifically looking for college graduates.

The second clip is a very strong and rational rebuttal to Item 15, the parking resolution, made by the only member to vote against it, Council Member Wozniak. As it was rational, it was mostly ignored.

Third up is the Code Pink people and their supporters speaking in favor of the measure.

Fourth is a ironic collage about the noise issue, and the impact to the surrounding area. 

Finally the other Council members speak, including one whose wife is a member of Code Pink.  No conflict of interest there….

Sad enough to hear a former Marine turn so far left.  Honestly I could spend a day on how messed up the one sided bias here is. There are so much stupidity.

Oh, and lest I forget, Hot Air notes that:

Senator John Cornyn joins SC Senator Jim DeMint in proposing a cut off of all federal funds to Berkeley.
