Washington To Be Nuked; FEMA, FBI Moving To Boonies

Facing the awful reality that Bush will definitely get DC nuked before he leaves office, FEMA and the FBI are among the federal agencies relocating to rural Virginia because it's "outside the blast zone."

That's the actual logic for the exodus, along with cheaper land and a bunch of bureaucrats already living an hour away from Washington because that's how far you need to go to afford a house.

Even the Department of Homeland Security is running for the countryside, as its leaders concede the best "homeland security" is to get as far away from the White House as possible.
