Letter sent to Obama tests positive for ricin, officials say
A letter addressed to President Barack Obama tested positive for the poison ricin and was from the same sender who mailed a letter to a senator that also tested positive, officials told NBC News on Wednesday.
The letter to Obama was received at an off-site White House mail facility and was being tested further, a Secret Service official told NBC News. A federal law enforcement official said that the letter was “very similar†to one addressed to a senator that tested positive in preliminary screening for ricin.
Authorities cleared the atrium of a Senate office building Wednesday, but it was not immediately clear why. Capitol police were also investigating a suspicious package at the office of Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala. Shelby’s staff had not been evacuated.
Ricin is made from castor beans and can kill within 36 hours. There is no antidote. Some threatening letters simply contain ground castor beans, resulting in a positive field test for ricin without the concentrated poison.

Honestly with all the racists and tea baggers out their, I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often.
:doh: Is it sad that the reactions of the primitives don't shock me anymore?

An R senator got one so Obama thought he deserved one too, huh?

But of course. If one has something that Obama doesn't have, the Messiah must have it. In fact, he must have MORE. After all, he is the boy king.

Yeah they said it's poison but it's probably a copy of the Second Amendment, it's very foreign to him.

This is reminding me of 9/11 and the anthrax attacks afterwards. I hope the perps get caught and brought to justice.

I hate the assholes at du. This should concern is all that someone is attempting to destabilize the US yet again. Yet all they see is their own hateful ways. Talk about acting against their own self interests. Do they really think the most likely culprits will spare their useless asses?

TWO Senators with an R by their name. Jeff Flake has gotten one too.

Add Richard Shelby to the list.

No one from the right is stupid enough to think that killing Obama would help anything. ::) All it would do is give the left a martyr, and put Biden in charge. Please remember that Biden is VP ONLY because his foot-in-mouth disease helps Obama look nearly smart. :thatsright:
