D.C. residents pledge to dump trash at Boehner’s house
Source: Raw Story
By David Edwards

A government shutdown could literally be a mess for House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH).

Thousands of the Washington, D.C. residents who will be without trash service if the government shuts its doors are promising to take their garbage to the Speaker's residence.

A Facebook page is inviting people to join together Saturday morning and march to Boehner's D.C. home.

"Speaker John Boehner is ready to shut down the government, including DC city services like trash collection," the page explained.

5. Better:
Put your trash in RNC dumpsters. They have to pay to have the dumpsters removed. Bonus: it promotes private enterprise.

11. DO IT! DO IT! DO IT! I would...............
And as a post downthread said, don't just take it to Boener's house and office. Take it to ALL of the House Republican offices too. Surely there's enough garbage in DC to spread it around to ALL the deserving parties.
