The US Secret Service says it has intercepted a letter addressed to President Barack Obama that contained a “suspicious substance”.

Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan said on Wednesday that the letter was intercepted at a facility away from the White House. He says the letter was received on Tuesday.

“This facility routinely identifies letters or parcels that require secondary screening or scientific testing before delivery,” Donovan said.

    DNO, you see what I am talking about your source of news?

    This is it!

    I have not heard that about the president as of yet on any Television Station in Los Angeles; I heard about the Senator’s letter yesterday, and today.

    The news about the president’s letter is true, your source is doing a good job.

    Look out for the thumbs down again fore my simply words here!

      Well I read the same thing on the NY Times website. Is that source credible enough for you??

      Actually I wanted to say ” if the news about the president is true”.

      Anyway, DNO was way ahead, because I only heard about the Presidents letter at BOUT 10:47 A. M. Los Angeles time, such new DNO, I do not know how many hours prior to that, at this time of the year Dominica’s time is almost four hours ahead of Los Angeles.

      We are in Spring, in the dead of Winter, Dominica is about four hours ahead.

        In 1 month to a year, you will be talking about Dry and Hurricane seasons instead.
