Eyewitness News' political reporter Dave Evans says the first sign of something going on came when security around the president's visit got even tighter than usual.
He says authorities are looking for a 55-year-old man named Lawrence J. Ward in connection with the reported attempt on the president's life.
Ward is said to be driving a blue Toyota sedan with a New York license plate: BRF-6596.
Seventh Avenue is blocked off because of the incident.
We'll have the latest here as it's available and on Eyewitness News tonight.
In the line of fire?
Very good, grasshopper!
Congradulations DU is down, He He He.
>>>I was sitting in Starbucks and saw a bomb-squad vehicle race by at 80 miles an hour.
What time was this Firebrand?
:-)
What can we expect with all of the hatred the leftist's have been spewing for over 3 years. They are irresponsible, and should be visited by the SS themselves!!! And they know who they are!
I'm glad someone mentioned that Seventh Avenue is closed. I'll go home up the East Side and then over when I get into the Himalayas.
Stay Safe! And keep us updated!
So it was more than a threat, apparently. Attempt means he tried something. Wonder what?
Why no "Fox New" gong? Why no news coverage of this?
Yep, I've been pray protection for GWB and family daily but even more so after the Drudge "story".
Did you see Firebrand's post?

I wonder if the bomb squad was related to this? If so? What was attempted?
Here is the prayer we are using:
Father GOD .. we thank you for Your Word which says that NO weapon formed against our President, or his family, or his administration, can prosper; and every tongue that rises up against him is condemned already.
Everytime you are promted with a thought of the President or his family or an admin member, say this prayer over them.
I just pulled that DVD to the top of the stack and was to watch it tonight or tomorrow:)
Interesting.... I posted a couple days ago my concern for this possibility. I suspected the culprits were more likely raging liberals than terrorists.

Prayers for Bush and family.
This is news? The lib wackos have been threatening him ever since he was elected!
I believe the word above was attempt, not threatened.
Thanks for the ping. I noticed something was up as I was walking over to Penn earlier. Security was extremely tight. Then I heard the bulletin on the radio that the secret service issued a BOLO for some guy from upstate NY who threatened the President. Scary
