The guys making bank selling the “Death to Capitalism” bumper stickers must be laughing their butts off at all the hippies and Occupiers buying them.

DuPont Circle is also known as the “fruit loop”.

"The Secret Service is at the scene and may take over the investigation, D.C. police said."

0bama probably wants to recruit him for a Cabinet position.

“DuPont Circle is also known as the “fruit loop”.”

Back in about 1952, we lived in a second floor apartment across the street, clockwise, from the old Peoples Drugstore on DuPont Circle. Of course DC was a whole lot different back then.

I just started an album for freebies of bumper sticker/t shirt slogans for others to print. So far I've only put up two versions of this but there will be others coming.

The Honda Civic is missing its Obama stickers.

It is very possible he was going around the circle in an effort to gain supports of his cause.

D.C. has gone through a boat load of changes over the years.

As far as cities go, I still think it’s the best city in the world. Expensive, but I don’t know of any other city that has the open spaces with so many monuments, memorials and access to history than D.C.
