WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The U.S. Coast Guard tried Friday to prevent a boat from entering a security zone on the Potomac River not far from the Pentagon, where President Obama was at an event commemorating the September 11 attacks. There were reports on police scanners of shots being fired, but those reports could not immediately be confirmed.

I know. Up until last year I would never have entertained such a notion. But things have changed.
Well, if they fired 10 rounds and didn’t hit anybody, there was nobody on the boat and it probably was a training exercise. Either that, or there are bodies floating on the Potomac.
If you believe that (on 9/11 near the President), I have a Bridge in Brooklyn for ya.
My concern for these dear, wonderful man also overflows! May God hold him near, that he remain safe and unharmed and not even a little ruffled! Nothing should happen to this man, despite his embrace of Communism and his wish to destroy our country. Better 200 million people die of starvation and being killed in camps, then one hair on his head be slightly disturbed! Hail! HAIL! HAIL!!!!

WTOP:
The Coast Guard conducted a training exercise in the Potomac River near the Pentagon amid Sept. 11 commemorations Friday, sparking confusion.
Coast Guard Chief Keith Moore said Friday no shots were fired as part of the exercise. Media reports suggested shots had been fired in the river and showed vessels circling in the water, near the bridge where President Barack Obama’s motorcade passed as he traveled to a Sept. 11 memorial at the Pentagon.
Coast Guard spokesman John Edwards said references to shots fired were picked up in radio chatter. As part of its exercise Friday, the Coast Guard aired simulated instructions to participants to fire 10 rounds. But Edwards said there were no shots actually fired and there were no suspicious boats.
The Coast Guard conducts this sort of training everyday. The training had nothing to do with the 9/11 anniversary, Edwards said.
“This is routine training for us and we train everyday,” Edwards said.
Obama had traveled to the Pentagon to lay a wreath in a ceremony commemorating the eighth anniversary of the terrorist attacks.

Is anyone reporting that the Coast Guard had one of their orange helicopters do a low-altitude fly-over of the river as well?
Mini-false flag? Puts him on “our” side.
Very timely propaganda, if so.
Oh, c’mon. Admit it. You just don’t want to have to look at all those black velvet paintings (sold at all flea markets and by every street vendor) that would surely ensue if Dear Leader ever should ever tragically meet the grim reaper.
Maybe it was some sort of combination Kennedy memorial for JFK, Ted and, who we know as, the last Kennedy brother...were there any cars in the water?
Tragedy ? I'd pop a bottle of Dom Perignon
Oh! Gosh! I forgot about the glorious, beautiful and terribly sane Ms. Pelosi! No harm should come to such a dedicated Marxist, lest her dream of equality and spread wealth perish! She among all, understands the need to kill vast quantities of the little Nazis populating the town halls. She knows what to do with those people! It's about time we found a lovely, kind, forceful person like her to tell us what we need to do. With any luck, NOTHING bad will EVER happen to this AMAZING, BRILLIANT AND WONDERFUL PERSON!
LOL....my cork popping would echo yours for sure! Cheers!
garbage scow lost its way.....
I am sure Madam President in waiting has her safe house well stocked with organic snacks and puppies, just in case.
Staged by Obama?
Real terrorists?
Lots of questions going through my mind.
Where are all the media reports?
Absent like they were on 9-11?
Maybe they were taking Michelle on a tour. You know like the NYC flyover in AF1?
Well DRESSED little nazis.
