- Picture of US Capital Building after British burned it in the War of 1812.
- It was this day in 1814 that the British entered Washington DC and burned it down. It was also this day that an extraordinarily rare tornado struck Washington DC and drove the occupying British out and back to their ships. They never returned. Click it to read the story.
- So, the moral of the story is that really, really bad weather saved the American people from being ruled over instead of self-governing before.
- With Hurricane Irene driving up the east coast this weekend, do we get a second big weather strike on DC which will drive out the current occupational forces (ie, oligarchy) and restore self-rule to the people?
- Dare to dream.
