Drudge Report ^ | 1/01/03 | Matt Drudge

[GWB00]

Update from Drudge:

"A car penetrated the security perimeter around the arena where President Bush was speaking Saturday and rammed the building. Authorities swarmed the vehicle... AUTHORITIES SHOT OUT THE TIRES; CRASHED INTO LOADING DOCK OF ARENA...

Hillary is the queen of down-talking, she has a different accent for every crowd.

[Maigrey]

Well, the local rag also ran with the AP headline as well.

I'll look and see if anyone from the CA was there. Probably not, since the President has an R after his name.

[ridesthemiles]

There was a woman and three kids in the car.
Yes, but there was another car that approached from a grassy knoll.


There are female suicide bombers in Israel. Why not the same here-kids or not? There are some very dangerous people out there. Keep Bush safe.

A car penetrated the [Bush] security perimeter....

....briefly. :o)

[chainsaw]

Sounds like some crazy woman with her kids rammed her car into a loading dock. Seems like President Bush wasn't in any danger from her.

She was just learning how to park.

Darn, just walked in from lunch and see this.....

Speaking of headlines, most newspapers will probably have something like

BUSH MOTORCADE CAUSES CAR CRASH

MOTHER AND CHILDREN OK

[frithguild]

audience members screamed their support for Bush and Barbour through plexiglass boards left over from a hockey game

"C'MON - DROP THE GLOVES!!!" They screamed as the Jumbotron displayed an image of Howard Dean.

[billbears]

No doubt someone that may have gotten lost and without any security to turn her away probably drove down the wrong way

[Consort]

...Drudge still says that the tires were shot out, but Fox reporter says the tires were flattened by tire spikes on the ground.

[Ciexyz]

Fox News is calling it a Security Breach and will have an update on it....after the commercial. Sheesh, I wanna know the details NOW!

[Bogey78O]

Liberalism count?

[vp_cal]

does not look like there is a connection this time

but we need to be careful so that these mishaps
are not used as a dress rehearsal for something
else.

[Wait4Truth]

The Fox producer said the woman was distraught and was screaming something but she couldn't make out what she was saying. It was probably one of the Bush-hating DU crowd..LOL!

[boycott]

"about 40 yards from the car."

Secret Service needs to take notice. Are they not familiar with the bomb at OKC? Are they not aware that terrorists few planes into our World Trade Center?

There should be concrete barricades surrounding the President anytime and everytime he speaks. There's way too many terrorists thugs out there.

[Conservative til I die]

It was Howard Dean!

[altura]

[HoustonCurmudgeon]

Here is my eyewitness account: I was standing about 5 feet away from the car while she was navigating around the second patrol car. Just before entering the road leading around the stadium a SWAT officer approached her with a drawn gun. She proceeded anyway. She had two young kids in her car who were yelling "Please Mom stop". After she drove around the second car the chase begun. I would say that within 1 minute of the chase they had her apprehended.

AP/Yahoo said no shots were fired
