Waking up to that almost makes up for the three hours of sleep I got last night. (And then she has the gall to look like this at 8 am. WTF BABIES.)
Good heavens, but that is cute!
I wish I'd had a camera, some of the signs in the rotunda were just so clever and awesome. My favorite was one that said something to the effect "We are prison guards who protect you from criminals. Who is going to protect us from this criminal?"
That's ok! These people have been posting pictures! [link]
I don't think anyone who isn't being dishonest can call the protesters "thugs."

From the link:
The first video is of the Firefighter Bagpipers entering and then playing a few tunes at the center of the Rotunda. One of the tunes is Amazing Grace. This really is beautiful to see and hear. Catch the smile at the end.
Totally
a bunch of thugs....
Fleece-lined tights: there's a wide range of prices. I feel tempted to buy, but then I remember--CA. Southern CA. But it's chilly today, I swear it. You have no idea, guys. No idea.
Sparky, those people deserve to have the law laid down for them. Maybe msbelle can give you some tips on listing their toys for ebay.
Last week or so I read a Jezebel story about a mother who listed her sons' beyblades or something on ebay because they'd trashed the bathtub playing with them, and she wanted to recoup repair costs. She also included a picture of them crying, and then 4chan went to town on her and illegally jacked up the auction price, and I think they posted her private details.
Whatever. I think selling your kids toys, the specific ones they messed up with, sounds like a great object lesson. The picture thing is mean, but not beyond the pale.
Unlike the mother who duct-taped her kid and then showed pics to the police.
A government shutdown is looking more likely:
Government Funding Talks Dissolving, Shutdown Now Floated As Negotiating Tactic
Behind the scenes, aides say, talks have taken on an even more ominous tone. According to sources familiar with the discussions, Republican negotiators have said that the only way they could build support within their own party for reducing the size of the cuts -- even in the stopgap measure -- would be to let the government actually shut down.
Such a scenario, a Democratic aide paraphrased a Republican counterpart as saying, would "be what it takes to convince the [party's] conservative members that they pulled out all the stops." A second Democratic Senate aide, briefed on the talks, confirmed this account.
...
Whether or not the line was said, a government shut down does appear to be creeping closer to fruition. The opening bid by House Republican negotiators was, in essence, to not negotiate at all.
When's the deadline? March 4th?
I have an idea, Sparky. Sell the toys and use the money to buy a minifridge for nanny share parents.
Jessica, the evolutionary adaptation of adorability in infants never ceases to amaze me.
Now, if it remains constant in five year olds with attitude, it may be helpful to a certain daughter of mine.
Cash, Sara saw the picture of Owen at the radio station, and now she wants you all to come visit. I think she's looking at Owen like an ally in world domination or something.

Yes, please, let's get all the powder kegs together and light a match.
Sara clearly thought, "Here's a kid who knows how to reach the masses ..."
