Hoeg's Visit to Parliament proves more exciting than Obama and McCain!

After McCain and Obama were done visiting the United Kingdom as a part of their presidential nominee world tours, it was time for the Political Juggernaut Carl Hoeg to arrive in London. While McCain arrived to little fanfare and Obama arrived too much, it can be certain that the most thrilling reception was saved for Hoeg. Such is the concern that Hoeg, a major rising force in the US political scene, will rise to unprecedented levels of power within the US in the coming years that his opponents deemed it necessary to attempt to bump him off during his visit to the British Parliament.

No sooner had Hoeg set foot inside one of the Parliamentary office buildings and met his private tour (Ruth Larkin), then he was being told to move away from the front of the building due to a suspicious vehicle. Only Minutes later Hoeg along with the rest of the people in the building had to be evacuated from the building due to the concern that the abandoned vehicle outside the office building could be a car bomb. Indeed all adjacent buildings were evacuated, the nearby subway stations were closed down and London’s finest were called in to deal with the situation. The cavalry police were controlling the civilians while bomb squads, police, and other authorities dealt with the suspect vehicle. The situation defused when one very surprised looking British chap tried to make his way back to his abandoned car with a small can of gasoline. When the situation had concluded Hoeg, like Obama and McCain before him was allowed to go on his tour of Parliament. While it appears that Hoeg managed to steer clear of disaster in this instance, as his assent to power continues one can only wonder if their will be more instances like this in the future.

Once again, Herr Hoeg ... you are following in your father's footsteps! Ask your Dad some day about his run-in with the Norwegian secret police in Oslo. Your Mom completely disavowed her relationship with your father at the time by making a hasty exit from the developing situation!
