Dog Days....

[exedir]

No, it is not Al Pacino, or Attica!, or the dangers of taking a flight out of or into Kennedy, no, this is August in Washington, Washington, D.C.

And no, no one wants to be there, Washington, D.C., that is, and so they won't. It will be a recess for all, recharge the batteries(or solar cells) for the iPhones and iPads, as we see all escape to other places, such as, Martha's Vineyard for those that can.

And yes, the nation slumbers in the heat(blamed on climate change) watching the Atlantic convergent zone, hoping for no named storms to head their way.

All peace and peaceful. Be wait, there is a storm coming and it does have a name, the Republican House, or rather the Republican House caucus.

And no, FEMA is not going to put on alert, or seen as the blame for a response, no optics of devastation with politicians walking about. And yes, the nation seeks its rest. What will happen is the media will move on from the royal baby thing to; the budget, the debt, immigration, and most importantly the elections, 2014 and 2016 and beyond.

In the meantime, it is the coming Dog Days, Anthony Weiner and Al-Qaeda
