Girlieman: Beserkeley Mayor Tom Bates
Antics: He’s a spineless piece of peacepunk crap.

As much as I hate the crap that Beserkeley’s peace punk lefties are perpetrating on our brave men and women in uniform, there’s something I hate even more. What is it? A weasel who takes a strong stand, climbs out on that limb and bellows to the world that "I’m a peacepunk asshat" then scurries for cover when that bull crap flies back to smack him on the face.

Welcome to the yellow-bellied scumbag world infested by a reeking piece of peace punk crap, Beserkeley Mayor Tom Bates. He was full of himself and ‘it’ when the Beserekely City Council voted to fire off a letter to the U.S. Marines telling them that, among other things, they were unwanted, unwelcome, intruders in Beserkeley. He had no problem at all with giving the Code Pink peace skanks a parking place in front of the U.S. Marine recruiting station on Shattuck Avenue. He had no qualms at all about having Beserkeley cops stand around and do nothing while the putrid Code Pink cunts staged protests at the recruiting station. He had no problem with any of it, until the bull shit hit the damn fan:

• Spearheaded by Senator Jim DeMint, 6 United States senators ginned up a painful response that would, if enacted, snuff out $2.3 million in federal funding headed Beserkeley’s way. Instead of paying for schools, water ferries and police communications gear, the funds would be sent to the United States Marine Corps.

• Closer to home, Mexifornia Assemblyman, Guy Houston, has his own idea for some coffers nuking payback. "What we're doing is we're announcing a bill that we intend to get on the floor to strip transportation from the city of Berkeley. What they have done in Berkeley is they have set aside a parking spot and in my opinion a public right of way, a public transportation corridor, specifically for a private organization -- in this case Code Pink -- to harass and annoy the United States Marine Corps and their recruiting efforts. We think that playing around and having an agenda with the public right of way is subject to ramifications. There is $2.3 million in proposition 1B transportation dollars. We think that should be in jeopardy."

Did this threat - a toothless one, given certain legislative realities at the state and national level - find its mark? You be the judge:

"That letter will probably be pulled back and maybe more moderate language will be put in place which is appropriate I think. There's really no correlation between federal funds for schools, water ferries and police communications systems and the council's actions, for God's sake. We apologize for any offense to any families of anyone who may serve in Iraq. We want them to come home and be safe at home." (Beserkeley Mayor Tom "The Gutless Weasel" Bates.)

This turd pretending to be human is beneath contempt. As much as I hate this retired U.S. Army captain’s peace punk antics, I would give him a pass, if he had some nads about it. I would hate his actions, but grudgingly give him credit for being a man by taking a tough stand and sticking to it. That takes a regulation set of nads, something this asshole lacks. He goes gutless and furtive at the first sign of trouble, no matter how unlikely it is to hit home.

For lacking the balls to stay the course...for piling on against his brothers and sisters in uniform because the howling peace puke mob made him wet himself...for being a stinking stain on humanity’s skivvies, Beserkeley Mayor Tom Bates is the Politically Incorrect Gazette’s Girlieman of the Week.
