3. They'd better tape it fast

Washington DC is COLD this time of year.

4. They already did

Saw it on HuffPoo a few weeks ago.

5. Good, they're not as nuts as they sound

You'd think they'd want to tape it before the first hard frost, when it looked like a garden instead of a dead weed patch.

6. Oh God. I can hear the Repukes now.

Squawking off about how this is another affont to Democracy and an attempt at imposing Communism and destroying Truth, Justice, and the American Way!

Of course, what DON'T they criticize? No solutions, only problems from that group.
