The Secret Service was responding Tuesday night to an escalating protest that may have involved a smoke bomb being thrown over the White House fence.

An estimated 1,000 protesters have gathered. No arrests have been made, but authorities are on alert.

The tense scene outside the White House follows an earlier protest on the West Lawn of the Capitol, in which several hundred protesters affiliated with the Occupy Wall Street movement decried the influence of corporate money in politics and voice myriad other grievances.

Organizers had touted the rally, known as Occupy Congress, as the largest national gathering of Occupy protesters to date and secured a permit that would have allowed up to 10,000 people to participate. By mid-afternoon, the protest appeared to have fallen far short of those goals.

Only a smoke bomb? Wusses.

Next they will fart in the general direction of the White Hut, and threaten to taunt them again.

Yes I noticed that Fox News ran this stroy at 10 o’clock when Greta came on. I flipped over to CNN and MSNBC to see if they were covering this story. One might think they would so they could parley into a story where they could blame republican rheteric for the attack but then I realized that they probably knew by now that its most likely an Occutard doing this.

I agree

And we may have to make it so

Q: What is the difference between and OWS protester and a pizza?

A: A Pizza can feed a family of four.

The way I heard it, it was a drummer in a garage band ... but a good one no less.

Hmmmm....I see they are rather “Reichstagging” early in the season. I would expect this more around late October, to make Marxist Obongo look like a decent, centrist capitalist of some sort, and not on his mission to DESTROY AMERICA as he currently is.
