Package tossed near White House

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON -- Streets around the White House were closed Tuesday morning
after a woman threw a package into the courtyard of the adjacent Old
Executive Office Building.

The woman was taken into custody without incident and was being questioned
by the Secret Service, said Darrin Blackford, a spokesman for the service.
The package was being investigated but no immediate details were available.

The president was in the White House at the time of the incident.

Streets were closed along Pennsylvania Avenue, between 17th and 18th streets,
and along 17th Street between State Place and H Street.

1. A clue, perhaps.

Nicely wrapped for Christmas.

6. Ineffective, I'm afraid

If it was NOT dropped by a C-5 Galaxy from 40,000 feet onto BushCo's head, the clue was not:

a) big enough
b) direct enough
c) moving fast enough

Remember, he has a thick skull, a superinflated ego, a Reality Deflector Shield, fetal alcohol syndrome, AND a Somebody Else's Problem field generator.

And he's surrounded by people who want desperately for him to stay that way.

2. Delivering a holiday mincedmeat gut-bomb, perhaps?

I hate that when it happens.

He's always putting my mail in the wrong place--including on our sidewalk.

Someone hurry up and get it to him. He'll need to see what his role model Goofus is up to.
