“The power under the constitution will always be in the people. It is entrusted for certain defined purposes, and for a certain limited period, to representatives of their own choosing; and whenever it is executed contrary to their interest, or not agreeable to their wishes, their servants can and undoubtedly will, be recalled.”

~ George Washington (1787)

"Inside the Beltway"....

......is a phrase anyone involved with the Federal government has heard.  It refers to the Interstates circling Washington, DC, and the insulation from the rest of the country that exists for those who work inside it.

But there's a new phrase to describe this:  The Washington, DC Bubble.  More accurate, and much more frightening.
