True story: after the Promise Keepers marched in Washington, they picked up not only their own trash, but everybody else's, too. The DC public works people said they'd never seen the place so clean.

Fast forward to last weekend. Saturday the anti-war rally.

Sunday we went to the National Gallery and the Freer Museum. I have never seen the National Mall so filthy. Looked like the aftermath of Mardi Gras.

Torn up signs, toilet paper, broken glass, empty water bottles, pamphlets. Picked up some sodden trampled pamplets, proclaiming "Socialism in 2007." Yeah, whatever.

Not good. Pick up your own trash.

Big difference between believing that it's your job to pick up your trash, and believing it's somebody else's.
