It ain’t rotting from acid rain. It’s melting from the inside from all that methane from the BS those guys spew. They’re all worthless. I wouldn’t fix it until they’re all thrown out.

I’ll make them a deal. If they return the federal government to what it was when the capitol was built, I’ll give them whatever is required to restore the capitol dome to its former glory.

and torn open by acid rain Haven't heard much about acid rain since the 1990s.
Talk of it disappeared with talk of "ozone holes".

Sixty million...
I can’t help but laugh out loud as I watch these idiots act as if a $60 million dollar expenditure would be something they would give a fig about.
Fiscal conservancy? LMAO

Well of COURSE it was damaged.
President Ike refused to make the necessary repairs in the 1950s.

Isn’t the capital dome figuratively on fire?
Kind of like what happened to the Reichstag?

The baby looks this way as God tries to remind us the damage the abortion advocates have done to this USA. This building and many others in D.C. are so responsible for the American holocaust.

I bet the thing implodes from disrepair and the elites blame it on the Bundy militia “terrorists”.

I agree, let the thing collapse, we would be better served if there was less marble and stone and more steel and concrete in Washington...
We have built temples to the false idols of government let the whole damn thing collapse.

Is “the baby” in the path of runoff water? If so, it would erode regardless of the pH of the H2O.
