A lot can be said about the Heritage Foundation. Its researchers continue to advocate marriage as a panacea to cure all ills, including, most recently, child abuse, but persist in opposing gay marriage (children of gay couples, the logic seems to be, are screwed either way.) Even as conservative and centrist opposition to the war in Iraq has rapidly increased (spreading even to their own, soon-fired staff members) and the lack of progress there has become more apparent, they continue to insist the surge is working. And the president of the organization continues to publish absurdly misleading and unscientific takes on global warming.
You might have other, less plausible, ideas, but to me that's what appears to be going on at the conservative think tank, whose grounds have been obscured by ominous, barbed-wire-topped fencing for the past couple of weeks.
Since the photos below were taken, Heritage's Liberty Bell logo has been removed from the building's entrance and it appears that the forces behind this are now digging some sort of moat.
Given the organization's repeatedly-professed fondness for the prison camp in question, it's no surprise if they're remodeling to better approximate Gitmo (where "detainee procedures exceed the requirements of the U.S. Constitution, U.S. law, and customary international law.")
