Trash Flash Mob

Funny. I was just wondering about this last night. Apparently, DC trash collectors are not essential federal employees. So if the GOPers succeed in shutting down the government this weekend, DC will be one stinking mess in a matter of days. Especially with the weather warming up.

This leaves Speaker Boehner ripe for a flash trash action. I'm generally against littering but since the GOP apparently wants to throw the process of responsible governance into the refuse pile, there's a certain poetic symbolism to this citizen response that you have to love. [graphic via]
