UPDATE: The good ship Lolly-POTUS...

6:14 pm - In a briefing just now, President Obama referred to the “senseless loss” in Boston due to “explosions”, but did not characterize them as terrorist.

Yup... maybe they were poorly maintained hotdog carts... wait a minute...

"Police investigators had contacted the local gas and electric company and determined that the explosions were not related to gas or electrical service."

"The authorities also found a device at St. James and Trinity Streets that did not explode, the person said, and two other devices were found, including one in Newton, outside of Boston."

Dear Mr President... if it's a bomb(s)... it doesn't matter who set it off... it's terrorism.

CORRECTION: Only two bombs have been found

Apparently, they were pressure cookers filled with nails & ball bearings, gruesome anti-personnel explosives used frequently in the Middle East.

UPDATE2: Dead & maimed children

"One of the two victims of today’s horrific Marathon double-bombing is an 8-year-old, the Herald has learned."

To make this incident even more horrific, this boy's mother is brain damaged and his 6 year-old sister has been maimed.
