Not So Fast

(Fox News) - City council members in Berkeley, California are having second thoughts about last week's resolutions condemning recruiters for the Marine Corps as "unwanted intruders." Two members have proposed the council rescind its letter condemning the recruiters — and publicly declare that Berkeley is against the war but supports the troops.

Berkeley has been besieged by criticism since last week's vote. Congressional Republicans have introduced legislation that would rescind more than $2 million in earmarks for Berkeley— and transfer it to the Marine Corps.

Says one council member who opposed the action against the Marines — "People are used to Berkeley taking a stand for peace, but you have to do it intelligently... I think we have an obligation to be thoughtful and sensitive and not be counterproductive to the cause of peace."
