Another look at the Inauguration.Historic Trash
...The mountain of rubbish left behind was of historic proportions.Okay, I made that last quote up.
"More than any Fourth of July, more than any event we've seen," Park Service spokesman William Line said.
The detritus included handwarmer packets, bottles, food, newspapers, blankets, gloves, coolers and a table or two, in addition to items bought from street vendors.
"They left behind Obama hats, Obama bags, Obama socks, Obama Birkenstocks" said Mafara Hobson, spokeswoman for Mayor Adrian M. Fenty (D). "Trash is as trash does and yesterday's trash left behind a lot of trash."
Don't want to quibble on such an historic day, but hey, don't hafta be an environmentalist whacko to understand the simple concept: You Tote It In, You Tote It Out.
Guess it's still not easy being Green. Especially when you gotta focus on all the hopey-changiness.
Somebody else'll clean up after us, we're not Liberals, we're Progressives.
