So today we went to capitol hill for 8 hours.. the first 5 hours we were allowed to go wherever we wanted.. So we first went to the rayburn/longworth/cannon buildings to get gallery passes from our congressmen/women or senators.. it was pretty cool, I stood outside baracks office (already met him tho), hillary’s, and many other babes. Elton Gallegly gave me my gallery pass to the House and Senate so I left.. At the senate I saw John Kerry (he was speaking at the time) and other random ppl like barbara boxer (she had a pink suit so she stood out), Feinstein, joe biden, tom tancredo, etc. Oh yeah!! I was walking (I got lost) and came up on Pelosi’s office, i decided to stop by and she was just on her way out (they were debating the war budget today) so I met her too i guess… got to shake hands and be like, sup bitch? I saw Billy too.. we only talked for a while though but it was good to see someone that I actually knew! 
Oh yeah since they were discussing the war a bunch of code pink people showed up out of nowhere!!! It was scary but funny.. you could tell that no one wanted them there, yep they talked to us though
After that we wanted to go see the supreme court, which wasn’t that far from where we were.. so we did and got to see John Roberts (chief justice), Scalia, and Alito. When we went to the Congressional Reception at 5pm I met donna christensen (Virgin Islands Rep.) she was on the Colbert Report so we just talked about that haha..
Some of our other speakers:
James Sensenbrenner 
Judy Biggert: 
I have other pictures but I dont feel like putting them on… ehh too much work. Well here is my favorite picture. 
Oh and this one too…
This is the United States Botanic Garden Conservatory.. i guess thats cool
other stuff:
Secret hallway where I was prob not suppose to take pictures of.. oh well it’s where all the reps. have their offices
and finally the washington monument!! yyayayayay
It was really fun, now that i know my way around I kind of want to come back for the inauguration of the president (which would be better w/ ppl from school!) I love DC Oh yeah if I didn’t explain congressional workshop i will…. well it’s a one-on-one debate, one speaker affirmative the other Against whatever resolution you are assigned, I have my debate oon Wednesday and got my first pick Kyoto Protocol (which of course is SOOO easy to talk about) i am against joining and my opponent is for (duhh)… I already met her/him (i know her but she looks like a he, she/he is transsexual) It shouldn’t affect my debate at all but she’s ultra liberal, I have to hold back… uhhhhhh I’ll be nice, but I have an hour to do some damage!

hahahahahahahahahah.. wtf? ppl steal babies? Code Pink sounds like a candy…. IThe Code pink I met are part of this anti-war organization full of hippies and stoners (soccer moms on crack) they go around wearing pink and protesting the war, oh and on their free time they make up ridiculous statistics and t-shirts. {they tried to attack Condi once, they were painted in blood and ran up to her when she was entering the State Department (which we are going to tomorrow!!)}
Dude I can do that if I want to, I bet you would since your all christian and don’t like gays… It’s because I don’t know which one he/she would prefer…
Yeah I am actually considering the washington trip with Janes, I just realized that you’d prob be going too.. YES i have someone to make fun of… so that would be fun

****Hillary is pretty ok, I mean I don’t like her policies and stuff but when you meet these people in person you aren’t disrespectful to them.. that would get you shot…. Yeah i wouldn’t go up and say hey bitch you are stupid, i’d just give her an offensive look

DESTROY HIM/HER!!!!!!!
Don’t forget to mention that the Kyoto protocol is hypocritical because it lets developing countries, like China(which happens to be #1 in pollution and all that jazz), continue their environmental policy while developed countries get the shaft.
you’re pictures are very cool.
