The story of a shooting involving the White House is just breaking wide open this morning. Drudge is all over it as is Twitter. But the shooting occurred last Friday night, and a full two days ago the media quietly reported the following:
Police in the nations capital searched the Occupy D.C. encampment in McPherson Square on Monday for a 21-year-old man wanted in Friday nights incident where gunfire was reported near the White House.Yes, thats right, a man suspected of firing a shot that hit the White House might be associated with the MSMs precious Occupy Wall Street movement.
As the Washington Examiner reported, U.S. Park Police officers conducted a sweep of the park and were seen pulling an Occupy protester out of a tent and questioning him.
That search was unsuccessful, The Associated Press reported. Park Police Sgt. David Schlosser told the AP that callers informed police that a man matching the description of Oscar Ramiro Ortega was seen in the park, located two blocks north of the White House.
But check out the headline of that article as well as this AP headline(Man who fired shots near White House at large) The disconnect is obvious. The AP headline doesnt connect the shooter to the Occupy movement
What if this was the Tea Party?
...This is a five day old story about a man who may have fired shots at the White House with the intent of killing our President, and he has connections to the Occupy Wall Street movement. But for all intents and purposes, the MSM is covering up and underplaying these facts. And theyre most certainly doing everything in their power to keep us from connecting those dots.

Sounds like a good rumor to spread to me.
Listen to Chris Plante on WMAL AM 630 — the guy is an occupy dc maggot, came here to be with them, lived there, and the press said, “he infiltrated” the movement. Covering up, big time. If he was at a tea party thing, would they say he “infiltrated” the event?
The reported suspect has been dientified , arrested , and identified. A second round has been recovered.
Still no word from Lamestream media ( Ministry of Propoganda ) - 5 days after the fact.
Nor any mention made that he alledgedly was an “Occupy Washington” participant, which would explain the delay .
Remember , only the “tea Party” is violent ... /sarc
First thing I thought of...if it were some Ohio Militia guy, they were have sounded off the national emergency broadcast squeals. But remaining relatively quiet would be indicative of some OWS punks—people Obama, Pewlosi, et al, said they were sympathetic with.
Hey, the media has ignored robberies, rapes, assaults, criminal actions, defecating in the streets and so on and so on.
Why shouldn’t they ignore a connection to the White House shooting?
Who gives a damn about the kids and Moochelle?? It's all about him.
Here is the reporting from CNN,:
WASHINGTON (CNN) - Police are still looking for a suspect in Friday night's shooting near the White House and Washington Monument and say they haven't found any bullets in buildings, cars or trees to indicate what the shooter might have been aiming at. No one was injured....Schlosser said law enforcement officials believe Ortega has been in the Washington area for several weeks. link
Don't worry, feel safe, we have brave men of great ability like John Boehner and Mitch McConnell on the job. And the Cavalry is on the way, with other great RINOs, like Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, the Newt and the Nut, (Ron Paul). As I see it, the job is no longer trying to save America, she's already lost. The job is to try to rebuild her, from the ground up. But that hain't gonna happen with this crew of Pubbies we're looking at right now. It's plain to see that the Tea Party candidates have been successfully marginalized and eliminated by the media and the Republican establishment types. The real problem is there is a lack of brains within the American voting block, and there is no substitute for brains. For the most part, Americans watch TV so the girly groups and the pundits can tell us how to think and who to vote for.
It is no rumor it was an OWS participant from the story I read this morning. Compounded by the fact he is an illegal no wonder the media is trying to ignore it.It’s one of Yahoo’s lead stories right now so they won’t keep it secret long.
WOW, haven't heard that yet.
An occupy protester, Illegal Alien, shots the White House window.
The media covers Cain 15 yr old story.
Could the Pope possibly be Catholic?
Think about how corrupt the MSM is. We may have a man on the loose with the intent to kill our President, and the media is likely underplaying the story to protect the Occupy Wall Street movement. Maybe if this had been the story it deserved to be two or three days ago, the suspect wouldve been caught already.
Rush is covering how all the mayors are shutting down the protests in unison. This may because of this incident and violence.
shoots, correction
The problem with this story, as with everything coming from the whitehut, is that they lie about EVERYTHING.
Time for some common sense gun control.
It seems that this may be a “staged” shooting, just like the larger play, Fast and Furious.
