DC Tea Party Planners Forced Out of Meeting After Bomb Threat …Update: Massive Turnout Expected

Leftist Caller Tells Receptionist: “I put a bomb in your building b*tch!”

ABC News reported that a bomb threat forced Tea Party planners to evacuate their building last night:

On the eve of what organizers call a ‘Big Ol’ TEA Party’, the Washington, D.C., offices of FreedomWorks were evacuated by DC Metro police on Friday afternoon after the conservative organization reported to authorities at 3:42 pm ET that it had received a bomb threat.

At 4:48 pm ET, the organization put out a message saying that it turned out to be a false alarm but the organization is not happy about the disruption.

My colleague, ABC News’ Teddy Davis has the story:

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.”

Of course, it surprises no one that the left would resort to violence when their power under threat.

UPDATE: The democrats are concerned about a massive turnout today in DC.
Initial estimates suggest from 1-2 million patriots may show up for the march and rally today at the nation’s capital.
