The U.S. Capitol is the hotbed of democracy, the very center of a well respected, much adored way of life.
According to Wikianswers.com, 15 million people visit Washington D.C. each year. Some come to see the museums, some to walk the "hollow grounds" of democracy, (o.k. so I made that up), most take the tour of the capitol which welcomes all to get a glimpse of the inner workings of our government.

Apparently democracy was closed that day.
