Fox: FBI reports "suspicious activity" related to Emperor Bush Coronation
FBI Warns of Suspicious Inaugural Activity

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,144427,00.html

WASHINGTON — The federal government is receiving reports of "suspicious activity" around buildings where presidential inaugural (search) events and a parade are scheduled to occur Jan. 20 in Washington, FOX News learned Friday.

FOX News obtained an intelligence bulletin sent this week to law enforcement by the FBI's Washington field office, which is coordinating the security for next week's inaugural along with the U.S. Secret Service (search).

An FBI official confirmed the authenticity of the bulletin and said, "there is no credible threat information but we are looking at everything and anything out of an abundance of caution." More than 6,000 law enforcement personnel will be on duty Jan. 20, the day President Bush (search) is sworn in for a second term.

Reports of suspicious activity noted by the FBI include people taking pictures and writing descriptive notes while being near the buildings. But there is no indication that any of these activities are linked to terrorist activity. Plus, many of the buildings and streets in question consistently receive numerous suspicious activity reports due to their high visibility in the Washington area.

1. Chimperor assassination in the works?

He is going nuts with the religion thing... maybe the CIA can't stand to let him have another 4 years...?

Or perhaps this is just more Fox propaganda to generate public support for the even more stringent "security checks" and "preventive arrests" we all know are going to happen.

I'd say the latter.

8. Activists and others.....
?? maybe. If I was co-ordinating one of the Boot-the-Bastard events, I'd be doing walk-thru's, taking pictures and planning. Obviously, we have so many things going on, there's "suspicious activity" everywhere! LOL!!

9. the most suspicious activity that will happen
on Jan 20 is the thief taking the oath. Now THAT will be a crime. Let's see...impersonating an elected official, stealing an election, lying to the public, raiding social security...is DC a 3-strikes district???
