I find their is little more liberating than a bit of outdoor living….
Maybe Obama will find a room at the Inn for all these freedom followers?

Welcome to the club Cheryl. The trappings of Empire. Some of our ex “empire” have a nuclear deterrent and a space program yet they still stand in line for our annual handouts and to feed our guilt.

What? No pictures of women dressed in tattered and filthy clothes, with their children dressed just as filthy clinging to them, begging for money or food on the downtown street corners? Send you some pics this winter just driving down Pennsylvania Ave., NW, (the Inaugural route from White House directly to Capitol Building) of the homeless wrapped in blankets sleeping on top of the grates along the street trying to get warmth from the steam coming up through. Want any pics from by the DC 14th Street Bridge of the homeless living under it wrapped in newspapers and garbage bags trying to keep warm?
