Thanks for the clarification. Reports that Obama took the same bridge this morning. ?? Something doesn’t smell right.

Has a gubermint spokesperson come out with the “It’s not terrorism” line yet? I thought that was SOP.

Why are all the boats booking it away from the boat in question?

They're under the command of ensign Kerry.

Fox now saying “reliable source” *may* be saying this was a CG exercise.

FBI source is saying “something happened” — direct quote.

CG has the lead on it, according to FBI source.

Anything even remotely resembling a terrorist attack won’t garner any sympathy for obama as he is too closely related to the filth of islam...

I got this tweet from BNONews: BULLETIN — COAST GUARD: “INCIDENT” IN D.C. WAS A DRILL.

CNN is reporting that the Coast Guard has fired 10 rounds at a “suspicious vessel” in the Potomac River.

D.C. Harbor Patrol, however, said that the incident may be a training exercise.

A temporary restricted zone had been set up on the river due to the Pentagon 9/11 ceremony, according to CNN.
