This map clearly shows that this is indeed Louis Farrakhan's home.

At 7:20 local time the pool was holding at Woodlawn and 49th, next to a large sandstone mansion that the Chicago reporters say is the home of one Louis Farrakhan. Our Secret Service agent allowed us off the bus (Air!) and as a dozen of us congregated on the sidewalk, inevitably some shoes touched grass. Immediately a polite man in jeans and Tshirt emerged to ask us to stay off the grass. Though this grass was the curbside city property, we obliged.
Soon, however, he was pacing and talking on a cell phone. He went inside the mansion's black wrought iron fence, crossed the well-landscaped yard, lifted a water bucket behind rose bushes and, voila!, a walkie-talkie. He was heard to refer to "the CIA" once he began speaking into it. Soon he approached our agent, asking him to move the van and its occupants, though your pooler could not hear much else he said. But the agent said, "How is this a security breach?" And he asked if the house was a government property.
The man said something else and at that point the agent stuck out his hand to shake hands and introduced himself as a Secret Service agent. He added, "Sir, I can assure you that we will do nothing to interfere with whatever is going on in there."
The man is back to pacing and talking on his cell, walkie-talkie in hand.
A co-pooler searched the Internet for the address and found it listed on a Web site called NotForTourists and another called Taxexemptworld.com. Indeed, another pooler found a county Web site that confirmed this property is tax exempt for being a religious institution.
Reinforcements arrived--three men in Tshirts reading "Wide or Die!" One surly man has been staring daggers at us. Asked if this is Minister Farrakhan's house, he just stared at your pooler. Asked again, he said, "I don't have no comment."
You should have the WH statement on top kill's failure. At nearly 8 pm local time we are still holding while POTUS and family remain at the Nesbitts.

It's 8:45 and nearly dark; your pool has retreated back inside the van. We're outnumbered now by roughly a dozen Fruit of Islam agents for the Nation of Islam. As each casually dressed man arrives, he exchanges elaborate handshake/hug/double air-kisses with others. Two walked by your pooler chanting "Islam."
Several have filmed and photographed your poolers, the van and its license plates with their cell phones.
One came and stood close to a couple poolers and OUR agent. He asked if he could help. No answer. He asked again. The man said no. The agent said, "Secret Service -- Please move away from this group of people."
He did.
Soon the agent asked us to go in the bus.
We did.
But several poolers, hearing the call of nature, are asking whether they might ask the Fruit about using their bathroom.

9:20 local time and our agent got reinforcements from three Secret Service agents. One shook hands with one of the 22 Fruit members we now can count from the van. After a short discussion the three Secret Service agents walked away again.
No word on when we get to leave. We're guessing POTUS is watching the Blackhawks game at the Nesbitts' home.

The power of pool reportage! Standoff ends, apparently with help of intermediary in Detroit:
Your pooler got a call at about 10:15 local time from a pool report reader who identified himself as the Rev. Gary Hunter, a Baptist minister in Motown who writes and blogs for the Detroit Times. He said he had called Minister Farrakhan and his son and asked them to have the Fruit stand down.
"I told him you were good people," Rev. Hunter said. "He said he didn't know you all were just waiting for the president."
As it happens, the FOI indeed had mostly gone by then. The Rev Hunter apparently is remembered by Ms. Tubman, and he said he knows our frequent press rustler Ben Finkenbinder from past travels with Obama, and -- sorry, Ben -- could he make that name up?
Anyway, at 10:33 we pulled away and we are at the Obama residence. Never saw Potus et al. WE HAVE A FULL LID.
(Louis Farrakhan's) property (his house) is tax exempt for being a religious institution.
Unfreakingbelievable.
*ping* - longer eyewitness version here.
Yet the libs tolerated and encouraged bussed in mobs at the Maryland home of the BofA exec. Nothing to learn from this. /sarc
Fruit of islam = Turd burglars for allah.
Hmmm... leftist radicals hell-bent on destroying our way of life fighting amongst one another... who to root for?
I suppose that it would be too much to expect the cowering press to understand that they are seeing the face of the coming tyranny in this little morality play on a Chicago lawn. We are headed for the worst forms of dictatorship and it is our submissive press that is leading the way — visions of Germany in the 1930’s — and with a name like Finkbinder no less.
obama hanging with his REAL FAMILY... islam... we should ban islam from American shores forever!

Curious about the motown reporter from the Detroit Times. The last edition of the Detroit Times was printed November 6, 1960.
Farrakhan, Ayers, Wright, Obama...it’s not Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood.
WAKE UP AMERICA!
Looks like press intimidation.
Thanks, but that’s a different article — that one is not nearly as comprehensive as this one.
I am quite sure Obama wants to give “special executive privileges to his friends”.
Looks like press intimidation.
As I have stated before, the press will put up with his BS until he treads on THEIR rights, only then will they start to complain - looks like they are starting to get their toes stepped on. Good, I hope they are happy with the hope and change that they wanted.
YES
In my opinion, when Obama talked about a civilian Army on par with the military Army, He was talking about Farrakhan and the Black Panthers. Obama is exposed and weakened now. He has only a residual amount of the power he had when he came into office. But yes, I believe that in his peak, he wanted or at least considered a Black American civilian Army to enforce his edicts.
Remember when he first came to office and so many Black people wanted to make it illegal to the point that you could be arrested, that is they wanted to make it against the law, to criticize the anointed one.
Fortunately, most of that Messiah Obama insanity is gone and over.
