<p>The crazy b*tches from Code Pink <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/printer_friendly_story/0,3566,354400,00.html" target="_blank">are still protesting</a> outside the Marine recruiting center in Berkeley, California. The protests which made headlines around the country a few months ago still continue to this day, albeit significantly smaller.</p>
<p>However, what Code Pink lacks in numbers they make-up for with pure insanity. The group has told ralliers to come equipped with spells and pointy hats today for &#8220;Witches, clowns and sirens day,&#8221; the last of the group&#8217;s weeklong homage to Mother&#8217;s Day.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Women are coming to cast spells and do rituals and to impart wisdom to figure out how we&#8217;re going to end war,&#8221; Zanne Sam Joi of Bay Area Code Pink told FOXNews.com.</p></blockquote>
<p>This entire week of protesting has had a different bizarre theme each day in hopes it will attract new protesters to the group&#8217;s efforts. The week has included a day for &#8220;raging grannies&#8221; in which grannies came to protest, some as old as 90 and in wheel chairs no less.</p>
<p>The group also had &#8220;Take your daughter To Protest Day&#8221; in hopes of creating a brand new generation of looney anti-American b*tches.</p>
<p>The Marines say that protests have been going on outside the recruitment center for so long that they barely even notice.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Most of the time they are just practicing their right to protest and their freedom of speech or whatever, so it&#8217;s not usually a problem for us. But sometimes it crosses the line, and that happened [Monday] when the grannies were here blocking the entrance and banging on the door,&#8221; Capt. John Paul Wheatcroft told Fox News.</p></blockquote>
<p>Wheatcroft said the protests have actually been a good thing, because their numbers are up. He said the Marines could never afford to pay for the kind of publicity they&#8217;ve received for free thanks to Code Pink&#8217;s efforts.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Ironically, it&#8217;s actually helped us by putting our name out. We&#8217;re now well known. And people know who we are, and where we are, and they come in to talk to us about enlisting. They&#8217;ve gotten us the publicity that we could&#8217;ve never afforded to pay for ourselves,&#8221; Wheatcroft said.</p></blockquote>
<p>Regardless of whether or not the protests have helped the recruitment effort, it&#8217;s nevertheless disgusting and despicable for Code Pink to be trying to cast &#8220;spells&#8221; on our men and women in uniform.</p>
<p>Those folks are serving their country for very little pay and don&#8217;t deserve to be disrespected by the left-wing clowns in Berkeley.</p>
<p>Fox News actually has a 24-hour &#8220;Protest Cam&#8221; set-up in front of the recruitment center which you can look at <strong><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/printer_friendly_story/0,3566,354400,00.html" target="_blank">HERE</a></strong> to stay abreast of all the action.</p>

<p>The disgraceful anti-war pigs at Berkely are not only protesting in front of the recruitment center, but refusing to allow people to enter the facility. U.S. citizens have a constitutional right to enter a Marine Corps. recruitment center if they so choose.</p>
<p>The incredibly incompetent Police just stand there and allow these idiots to break the law. The one cop says, &#8220;we&#8217;re trying to remain as neutral as possible.&#8221;</p>
<p>Last I checked the Police were supposed to enforce the law, not remain neutral. Does that mean I can rob a bank in Berkeley and the Police will remain neutral?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s amazing people trying to get into the recruitment center actually put up with that crap. It be great to see some marines come pouring out of that building cracking some skulls, but unfortunately that&#8217;s not likely to happen.</p>

<p>Let me repeat that, the Berkeley City Council regards the United States Marines as &#8220;unwelcome intruders.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p> In addition, the council voted to explore enforcing its law prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation against the Marines because of the military&#8217;s don&#8217;t ask, don&#8217;t tell policy. And it officially encouraged the women&#8217;s peace group Code Pink to impede the work of the Marines in the city by protesting in front of the station.</p>
<p>In a separate item, the council voted 8-1 to give Code Pink a designated parking space in front of the recruiting station once a week for six months and a free sound permit for protesting once a week from noon to 4 p.m.</p></blockquote>
<p>Here&#8217;s what Berkeley&#8217;s Mayor had to say:</p>
<blockquote><p> &#8220;I believe in the Code Pink cause. The Marines don&#8217;t belong here, they shouldn&#8217;t have come here, and they should leave,&#8221; said Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates after votes were cast.</p></blockquote>
<p>Mayor Bates has it all wrong. It is he who doesn&#8217;t belong here and shouldn&#8217;t have come here. It is he who should not only leave Berkeley, but leave the United States.</p>
<p>We don&#8217;t need disgraceful cowards in this country. Mayor Bates and the entire City Council deserve to be spit on for disrespecting our military.</p>
<p>In a perfect world we could lock those Code Pink bitches up for good. Encouraging those traitorous broads to in effect drive the Marines out of town is totally outrageous and shameful.</p>
<p>All Federal money should be immediately cut off for the city. If they are going to pursue a disgraceful agenda, then they should find a way to be a self-sustaining.</p>

<p>The Army began its recruiting year Oct. 1 with fewer <a href="http://www.breitbart.com/print.php?id=D8SKFA6O0&amp;show_article=1" target="_blank">signed up for basic training</a> than in any year since it became an all-volunteer service in 1973.</p>
<p>Gen. William S. Wallace, whose duties as commander of Army Training and Doctrine Command include management of recruiting, told reporters at the Pentagon that the historic dip will make it harder to achieve the full-year recruiting goal—after just barely reaching it in the year ended Sept. 30.</p>
<p>Achieving the Army&#8217;s recruiting goals is a challenge even in the best of times, but finding new recruits is more important than ever with the Army being so heavily deployed.</p>
<p>The Army has decided that it must grow its active-duty force by several thousand soldiers a year in order to relieve strain on war-weary troops.</p>
<p>With a mixture of <a href="http://www.goarmy.com/benefits/money_bonuses.jsp#Enlistment" target="_blank">financial and other incentives</a>, Gen. Wallace feels confident that he will meet the recruiting goal of 80,000 troops.</p>
<p>The Army is currently offering an incentive they call the &#8220;Quick Ship Bonus.&#8221; This offers a new recruit an additional $20,000 bonus if he/she agrees to leave for basic training the same month as they sign-up.</p>
