Hazmat Scare at Pres. Clinton's Harlem Office

By Jeff Pegues
(Harlem-WABC, April 27, 2004) — A suspicious package was sent to President Clinton's offices Tuesday afternoon, and hazmat teams rushed to the scene. Investigators are testing a vial filled with some sort of powder, sent to the former president's office in Harlem.

The secret service says a mysterious package was received in the former president's mailroom. An unknown powder was found inside. Initial chemical and radiological tests came back negative.

Further tests are being done to figure out what the substance may be. Clinton was not in the offices at the time.

One federal officer was taken to the hospital to be checked out.

Jeff Pegues is on the scene, and his full report will be here shortly.

5. Bill's BOOK is driving them

frigging insane..But, don't forget, they needed a DIVERSION because of Cheney's hearing...want to keep the heat off..They should fry the puke who sent it...Wonder how the guy is that was taken to the hospital..

2. What kind of idiot would do something so stupid and evil like this?

I hope they catch the bastard!

3. Same guy who anthraxed the rest of Bush's enemies?

Just a suggestion. This is probably a hoax. The anthrax sent to the editor who published photos of Jenna Bush wasn't.

4. You know Bill could avoid this if he just did the following

Call the vulgar junkie, the sow(Hannity), Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorim, etc. into a large meeting place. Then whip out your member and show it to all of them, so that way they can stop obsessing about the Clinton's private parts.

19. ..... sorry ......

It's intended to be darkly humorous... ;-)

[KeepItReal]

8. Hope the Secret Service investigates better than Ashcroft's people

Maybe they (Treasury Dept's Secret Service) can catch this idiot and the Anthrax mailer, since the Justice Department is all worried about other issues like Internet porn, illegal downloads, identifying anti-war protesters...

20. The problem is the Busheviks don't WANT to catch their chums

or THEMSELVES, if you count the Anthrax Assassin.

9. Bill Clinton for President!

:)

10. And of course the FReepers are saying its cocaine.... interesting

Because, they are just so fucking stupid that they will accuse Dems of anything and everything, wildly and without any foundation.

But you take someone like Bush, who has definate history of alcoholism and drunk driving, as well as the strong likelyhood of a cocaine addiction, and they just say that such claims are "rediculous slander".


Idiots

11. Probably the handywork of those those bu$h idiots.

I recall reading how some of them were disappointed he didn't base his office in the WTC.

[Digit]

12. It was only cocaine...

It was meant to go to the Selected President, but it was a shipping error....

[Nihil]

13. Holy Sh*t!

If George's package went to Bill then someone had better phone George
before he snorts the contents of the one *he* received!

(On second thoughts, don't rush ... :evilgrin:)

16. In a vial?

How effective would a biological agent be in a vial? Would the attacker expect someone to say, "Hmmm. What's this? I better open it and sniff it and taste it."

[PaDUer]

17. These people are sick..

they've got the publicity of Bill's book, Hillary's popularity in the senate, and now they're PO'd that Specter won the primary..My, things aren't going how they wanted...Then they start the ridiculous BS that the Clinton's don't want Kerry to win. These people have orgasms everytime * dresses up while playing Nintendo. Let's just see how many freepers march to Iraq when their idol calls.

18. I'd bet it was a radical right wing group.. n/t
