Hey, you know what they say -

"If all the Senators and Congressmen were laid end to end...

... it wouldn't surprise anyone."

Not a problem. Congress needs a break anyway.

I'm confused. The sign says, "WARNING, Prostitute Free Zone." Is this D.C.'s version of a tourist guide telling me that I need to look elsewhere?

This is not a ban or a warning. This is a humanitarian move on the part of the Police Department.

What they are actually doing is telling the prostitutes not to waste their time in D.C. this week since it's a Democratic Inauguration and Dems get all the companionship they want for free and don't need to pay for services. I would imagine the girls and boys will wander up to College Park for the week and catch the GOP stragglers, maybe even a few RNC mucketymucks.

If the republicans were going in on Tuesday, they would import all the prostitutes they could find and support them vigorously, but strictly as a pro-business gesture, not because they really had any interest, passion, or desire for such. Many of them couldn't get their money's worth anyway, no matter how hard they tried.

Yeah, that question's been raised. And DCPD officials were already feeling a little sheepish over having posted those misprints that read WARNING: FREE PROSTITUTE ZONE. Those drew a crowd pretty quickly...

You watch.

I don't doubt it. Would go nicely with your basic BEWARE PICKPOCKETS AND LOOSE WOMEN sign from New Orleans...
