So far he's just a stander, not a jumper.
Kewl, a FReeper I.D. and tagline all in one!
FYI... We're boycotting WMAL since they suspended Michael Graham indefinitely.
Well can't some person in this endless litany of government stun gun his "mentally ill butt' and allow commerce to proceed so we can be taxed more?
The Roads Must Roll.

PING!
Oh for Pete's sake, someone tell Helen Thomas he's not going to run, already!
Update: northbound I-95 was reopened around 10 pm when the potential suicide shifted position on the bridge. However, both loops of the Beltway are backed up for about 2 miles due to the jumper. Local roads are clogged due to people trying to escape I-95.
I think they said the jumper is actually on the Old Gunpowder Road overpass, which is just north of 212. This situation could go on indefinitely.
It's probably little Dick Durbin trying to get some attention!
We really kicked their arses at Walter Reed tonight. I mean, it was not pretty on their side.
It sucked being Code Pink tonight.
It's Frist junping over to the Dark Side.
My wife is out there with my daughter, so I was particularly perturbed. She forgot the cell phone, so I couldn't call her to talk her around it.
She was heading up to baltimore. It will be interesting to hear her story. She hasn't called yet, but if she got where she was going after 12 she might not call. And of course now I'm on the internet and she couldn't call anyway (unless she remembers the cell phone number).
It looks like the overpass is about 20 feet high. I don't know why the don't just drive a bunch of trucks with mattresses underneath and push him off.
I also had a fantasy of being there, jumping out of my car, running toward the guy from below, waving a gun at him, and shouting "get the bleep off the bridge, or I'm going to shoot you, and when you fall down here I'm going to cut you slowly and painfully until you don't recognise yourself."
Sounds like something one of the really macho cop-guys would do before they got suspended, like Riggs or Cobra.
Anyway, I think we are very tolerant of people who are trying to kill themselves. Now, if he yelled that Islam was a terrorist organization, WMAL would insist he be suspended from the bridge :->
OK... if he wants to jump he should do it quickly, after you get on the railing its a little late to give it deep thought. /sarcasm
That's just one exit south of me.
And now we find out just how frustratd the Democrats really are.
