Berkeley veteran's day back on, including moonbat, sans veterans

You probably remember Berkeley cancelling Veteran's Day because veteran's groups opposed moonbat Bill Mitchell being a speaker at the event.

Well, the event is back on, and the moonbat will be there to mock the veterans (emphasis mine):

The local chapter of Disabled American Veterans, which has participated in past Berkeley Veterans Day events, had threatened to pull out if Mitchell were included, saying he would inject partisanship into the occasion.

But the committee approved Bates' compromise: Mitchell is in, although not as the keynote speaker, and the DAV is out, although individual members will still attend.

Bates promised to talk to Mitchell and warn him to keep his remarks non-partisan.

"But by his very presence, he'll be making a statement,'' the mayor admitted.

Some one in Berkeley is missing the point. Veteran's Day is about the veterans, not those that hate them.
