Bomb threat by left-wing loons against Tea Party organizers for the 9/12 project and Freedomworks

I’m shocked! Shocked I tell you, that the peace loving, anti-war, “dissent is patriotic” left wing loons in this country, would issue threats against those involved in the 9/12 project march on DC today, which so far has an estimated attendance at around 2 million. (That remark about being shocked was sarcasm BTW). I’m actually more shocked that Another Barack Channel (ABC) had the gallstones to report on it. Of course, it wasn’t Jake Tapper, so that part at least isn’t a surprise:

Tens of thousands of anti-big government activists are expected in Washington on Saturday as part of a “March on Washington” being organized by FreedomWorks, a conservative group headed by former House Majority Leader Dick Armey, R-Texas.

A FreedomWorks staffer told ABC News that the organization’s offices at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue were evacuated on Friday afternoon by DC Metro Police because of a bomb scare.

DC Metro police has confirmed to ABC News’ Jason Ryan that the DC Metro police had, indeed, evacuated the organization’s offices after being told by the organization that it had received a bomb threat.

The threat came when a man called the FreedomWorks main line and told the organization’s female receptionist: “I put a bomb in your building, bitch.”

The FreedomWorks staffer who spoke with ABC News said that the organization has received multiple threats but that for some reason, the DC Metro police thought that this one was credible enough to evacuate the building.

The FreedomWorks staffer did not fear for his safety but worried that it was an effort to disrupt the organization’s ability to round up activists in advance of tomorrow’s “March on Washington” which is expected to bring tens of thousands of activists to the nation’s capital.

The FreedomWorks staffers says that 50 volunteers were forced to leave the office where they were making calls encouraging people to come to tomorrow’s event.
