Berkeley is starting to feel the heat of their actions. Both Code Pink's and the City of Berkeley's web sites crashed during the day due to the high-volume of traffic. I doubt that the millions of people accessing those pages are doing so in support of Code Pink and the City of Berkeley’s “noble efforts.”
Move America Forward has started a petition in support of the Marines under siege in Berkeley:
Senator DeMint, who is a true conservative, has been extremely encouraged over the outpouring of support he is receiving for his recommendation that federal funds destined for Berkeley be suspended:
“The First Amendment gives the city of Berkeley the right to be idiotic, but from now on they should do it with their own money.”
Michelle Malkin has been providing outstanding coverage of this outrage:

The Moonbat Prospective:
Lost in all of this is the fact that there are people supporting Code Pink/The City of Berkeley's efforts.

Peace and Justice Commission Petition:
Here is the originally posting of the petition presented to the Berkeley City Council
Copy of the Original Petition Supported by Berkeley
There were five main points made by the Peace and Justice Commission:
1. The US "has a history of launching illegal, immoral and unprovoked wars of
aggression"
2. The Bush Administration launched the most recent of those wars in Iraq.
3. The Marine Corps is a tool used to "Prolong" the wars.
4. The wars are illegal and unconstitutional
5. Military recruiters are filthy liars who victimize the youth.
