Probably planted by a philosophy major at NYU. Those NYU students just L-l-l-o-o-v-v-v-v-e-e America.
Make that 'Dear Teleprompterer'.
(Or should it be 'Dear Teleprompteree'?)
Exactly what I thought. Similar to the bombing of the military recruitment center in Times Square in the early hours of March 6, 2008 (March 6th is the anniversary of the Weather Underground townhouse explosion/March 6, 1970). This one was during the early morning hours of Memorial Day.
99.99% probability that commie anarchists were behind it.
Nothing to see here.... It’s was probably just some mischievous kids.... really nothing to see here.....Swine flu pandemic, I’m going to release some more CIA memos, Republican party needs to be more inclusive, blah, blah, blah, hopenchange, unicorns and rainbows.
From the New York Post...
“Placed under a bench outside a Starbucks on E. 92nd Street near Third Avenue, the bomb went off at 3:25 a.m., blowing a hole in the bench and shattering two windows, police said.
The circumstances of the explosion resembled that of similar bombings at the Times Square Army recruiting center and the Mexican consulate in recent years, but Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said that other than the early morning hour, there was no apparent connection.”

Sounds like some kids idea of a prank - not terrorism.
Has this made the news at all? I have been watching for about an hour now, and I haven’t seen it reported? Did N Korea overshadow it?
A bomb? Is it near Broadway?
Whoa Nelly! And hold onto my seat. Did you really type "loser," not "looser"? Congratulations! That is a rarity around here. Well done.
Oh, Oh, looks like home grown leftest unnatural disaster. Janel Napolitano may need to revise her report.
You couldn't be serious?
I was just thinking that. SB goes to the extreme letting people know they are environmentally conscious... and what do they get?
The last price increase of a Venti Double Non-Fat With Extra Foam finally became too much to bear?
Quick, lock down all schools in NYC.

Couldn't be anarchists, they would actually have to have a leader and an organization to pull something like this off.
I don't know. I haven't been watching the news.
You forgot to add the 'sarc' tag.
It obviously was an anti-capitalist/anti-American message delivered early on Memorial Day.
