So living in the DC area has it's disadvantages. LOTS of tourists, and then that number explodes whenever there is a demonstration downtown. It makes venturing downtown nigh impossible. It doesn't matter which side of the political spectrum you are it all contributes to a traffic nightmare.
It wasn't so bad this time. Apparently the Progressive-Democrats held a One People One Nation One Obama, Working Together rally. Instead of 'hundreds of thousands' it was 'hundreds maybe thousands.' No word on whether they cleaned up after themselves, which is a DANGEROUS habit the Tea Party types have picked up. C'mon Tea Party people! There is a whole industry down here devoted to cleaning up the litter after the events. If you hold 500,000 people rallies and leave NO trash on the Mall those people aren't paid overtime, in this tough economy
Anyway. It was definitely Progressives & Democrats on the Mall this weekend. No Socialists at all... SO don't call them that! It's those crazed right wing types that are supported by big money. These demonstrators were only supported by Unions like SEIU and AFL-CIO.
See, no Socialists?
