WASHINGTON - A law enforcement official says police are investigating letters sent to Capitol Hill offices showing pictures of a Times Square military recruiting station that was bombed.

According to the official, who was briefed on the investigation, the letters included words to the effect of, "We did it." The official did not know which offices received the letters.

The small bomb caused minor damage to the New York military recruiting station before dawn Thursday and police were searching for a hooded bicyclist seen on a surveillance video peddling away.

Sounds like it was motivated by politics.

thanks for the thread Brillant. More than one letter sent. Fox News is trying to determine what offices on Cap Hill recieved the letters

Only one comment has been reported from the letter, "We did it."

The politics are those of Nancy Pelosi who ordered up the hit

Whoever did this horrible deed probably did it because they don’t like the violence of war. Who could be our suspects? Code Pink??? Hollywood??? Sean Penn??? Michael Moore??? Chris Matthews???

Dems are going down-none of them reported it...what a shock. I can’t wait to hear these 8 moonbats explain this one away.

I just heard this on Fox - pics were sent of the recruiting station, prior to the bombing, to 8 Democrat critters. I’m curious who they are and what they did when they first received the pics. WHAT DID THEY KNOW AND WHEN DID THEY KNOW IT????? :-)

It bothers me that they keep refering to this bomb as small. Any pedestrian that would have been walking by could have been killed or severely injured by this blast.

This just sucks. *I'm* a bicyclist.

No cheers, unfortunately.

Send the bombers to Iraq and have them perform sweeps for IEDs since they seem to be interested in explosions?

Cheers!

Politico manifesto. I’ll tell you how we stop this from the wacky left. Start hanging people in the middle of NYC and they won’t do it anymore.

Pics of a man in front of the building with his arms out and a note that said, “We did it,” along with a manifesto.
