Two white men were being questioned Friday after an unidentified man claimed to have a suspicious device in his car close to the U.S. Capitol.
Police cordoned off several streets near where the gray 2005 Chevy Impala was parked on the corner of First Street and Constitution Ave., N.W. That's very close to the Senate offices.
Brian Doyle, a spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security, said hazardous materials teams had been dispatched to the site. "We don't know if it's an explosive device," he said.
There were no immediate details available on how the suspicious vehicle came to the attention of police. The Capitol had not been evacuated one hour and 20 minutes after the incident was first reported.

Someone else in the car said "I hope you don't search my car like they did in Mexico"
I'd guess its 50/50 that a Tancredo fan Freeper's car is about to be blasted by a water cannon...
"Your right, I feel really stupid right now. I'm not proud, I'm just a dumb ass white guy."
Did I say anything resembling that? I did not. I just cannot see what there is to be proud of about one's skin color.
I suppose someone might be proud of a suntan that was carefully nurtured, but that would be pretty silly too.
I don't suppose you are a "dumb ass white guy." I have no idea how smart you are. I'm a "white guy" too, or maybe a pinkish guy.
I'm proud of lots of things I have accomplished, but I can't say that my skin color is anything I had anything to do with.
If police were questioning me about a bomb, I'd turn white too.
Big silly hat alert!
"There will be a loud noise in 5 minutes."
FNC says the explosion of the bomb/car will be in less than 5 minutes.
>>"There will be a loud noise in 5 minutes."
Ted Kennedy had beans for lunch.
Is NBC going to be filming this?
Pay attention: If they're white men, it gets mentioned. If they're black, we're left to guess. But the question is: Are they WHITE Muslim terrorists? or stupid white criminals?
explosion...rear seats
Dayside poofboy asking if the police considered checking the trunk, too. Thank goodness we have the brilliant media to protect us.
"Two white men".......is that MSM code for 'non-Muslims"?
Heck, muslims aren't "black", so it could be they don't want to say "Two Muslim Men".
Maybe they're the last two white men in D.C. that aren't politicians.
Love the name, Diddle E.
Slightly OT - I've been off line for a few days and don't know if this turd has floated to the top of the MSM punch bowl yet.
FBI investigates claims of bomb threat on campus
http://community-research.com/first.htm
"The FBI is investigating allegations that a Prairie View A&M student arrested last week on charges of trying to pass off counterfeit bills may have also had bomb-making materials in his dorm room."
Oh and get a load of this. His name is Okwudili Franklin Aluka. He's 30 years old and his immigration status is under investigation.
Does anybody have any more info? I didn't turn up anything on a thread search...but I'm a novice...
Let's get this to the OU bombing group. PhiKapMom, see post #35.
I think you were trying to say you're not ashamed of the color of your skin. I think most of us knew what you meant. :)

To tell you the truth, I don't take the world too seriously and enjoy sarcasm. But your right, the only guilt I feel comes from my own mistakes. Everyone is capable of goodness and I see it goodness everywhere.
You've got a great sense of humor. I loved your response.
The next time someone tells me that what I posted was "a new low for Free Republic" - as I was told a couple of weeks ago - will you help me come up with a witty reply? please?
