Eight people were taken to area hospitals after a suspicious substance was found Friday morning in an office at the Longworth House Office Building, according to a D.C. fire department spokesman.
The spokesman, Timothy Wilson, could not immediately describe the symptoms but said they were minor. He said fire crews evaluated 10 people and took eight to hospitals.

What are the odds of the capital keystoners blaming this on the Teaparty? Or some previously unknown militia group?
Said group being formed as we speak in some alphabet agency’s basement.

Odds are some college kids who work as interns are the ones hospitalized. It’d be luck if somebody in Congress was in contact.

House building? Were they building a house, or in a house inside of a building?

False alarm, it turned out to be a small amount of intellect. Nobody there had ever seen that substance before.

“suspicious substance”
If it was a spine, and was found in Republican offices, I see the point.

Hilarious! The best comedy seems to have a kernel of truth at it’s core. Your comment is a textbook example. Good one!
