Picture From Protest March At Berkeley (NWS)

You have to admire his honestly and sense of priorities.

Do we know anyone who goes to Berkeley?

If you continue to think that Berkeley is the last outpost of hippy liberalism, you are still stuck in the 60's. I would venture to say that conservatives probably outnumber liberals now. They just aren't as active.
Berkeley has become a fairly elite school that does not accept everyone. It costs about $20,000 per year. It is a very difficult school, so it doesn't draw as much of the party crowd as other state universities.
During the months leading up to the 2004 general election, conservative groups were very active on campus. I went to some of their rallies. They were easy to get along with, because the majority of them were intellectual and non-confrontational. They stayed fairly low key, since most people continue to perceive Berkeley as a hippy paradise.
Believe it or not, students don't come to Berkeley to protest. They come to get a great education.

It would probably work for a while too, like those signs the drunk beggars have that shay, "Why lie, I need a beer..." when they are panhandling.

um... I plead blondeness on this one. :scratch:

Gabriella...do I detect a sense of humor?

 

[Shattered]

You need one hell of a sense of humor to spend 20+ years as a lib.

Kissing ass to get into the green.

 

[Gabriella84]

I've always shown a sense of humor, although it normally surfaces as mocking sarcasm.

But it would take a LOT of green to make me kiss anyone's ass. I leave that task to Congressional lobbyists.

 

[GotZoom]

You know all those things I said....

I was wondering about Gabriella and all.

Never mind.

 

[Gabriella84]

Don't worry too much about it. I say some nice and thoughtful things occasionally. But deep down inside, I remain despicable liberal scum. :blah2:
