If all the women on Capitol Hill were dust bunnies, #princeharry would be a Dyson Vacuum. Every woman is gone. Every. Single. One.

Tragedy. (Female) staffers cleared out by police. Grumpy faces

There were more Prince Harry fans here earlier -- mostly young women who work at the Capitol -- but they were politely to clear out.

The image of female Hill staffers being ushered away from Prince Harry and forced do things like, say, staff the principal, is delightful.

And so, Prince Harry left. Hallways cleared. Female staffers returned to their lives, unfulfilled dreams of being a princess.
