A woman in a dog crate atop a car parodies U.S. Repuglican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and the story of him taking his dog Seamus on vacation atop the family car, during the Takoma Park Independence Day parade in Takoma Park, MD, July 4th, 2012. Millions of Americans headed for parades and fireworks shows on Wednesday to mark a sweltering 4th of July holiday, some even celebrating as the nation’s founders did —— without electricity. Parts of Takoma Park, a suburb of Washington, DC, remained without power during the parade. |
