Protestors at the White House

The tea party protest in Lafayette Park briefly shut down the White House’s northwest gate around 2:30 p.m. Wednesday after a protestor threw something – reportedly a tea bag – over the White House fence.


Secret Service kept reporters inside the briefing room – and away from the cameras on Pebble Beach – for approximately half an hour while dealing with the situation.

Welcome to the world of the White House Mr. President. Now maybe things are a little clearer for you that you don't have the mandate that you thought you had. You sold a lot of things that you can't back up and people are angry.
