White House has been evacuated, turn on the news.



Update:

Parts of White House Evacuated

WASHINGTON -- Fox News is reporting that parts of the White House have been evacuated.

Secret Service reportedly received some kind of alarm signals from dogs who picked up a scent from a car across the street.

Excerpt. Continues: Parts of White House evacuated

Building Near White House Evacuated

Associated Press

06.18.07

A government building near the White House was ordered evacuated Monday, apparently because of a bomb scare.

Security in the area was heightened because of the visit to Washington of Israeli Prime Minster Ehud Olmert.

Olmert is staying at the Blair House on Pennsylvania Avenue across from the White House. The evacuated building was the White House conference center, which is around the corner. The conference center temporarily houses the White House press corp during a renovation in the West wing.

Probably somebody called in a bomb threat, or there’s a fire alarm of some sort. Can’t think of any other likely reasons.

PARTS of the Whitehouse have been evacuated, not the entire building. A bomb sniffing dog got a 'hit' off a car. The Israeli Prime Minister is also visiting today, btw.

I’m sure there’s something illegal about mentioning Paris Hilton and bulges in the same post.

Any of you folks remember when the US Capital Building was bombed back in 1971? That is a very interesting story.

Nope! I looked in the book, first. There should, however, be a law. You see, there is no possibility that when one uses the word "bulge" with that person, it can't possibly be a bulge on her. Stick figures don't have bulges.

Actually, MSNBC covered it as Breaking News before the hour. Kelly O’Donnell was talking to the on air person about the press area being evacuated. Then . . . they went to Paris.
