Suspicious White Cooler of Hate Shuts Times Square

I once saw a photo of someone with a cooler at a tea party, so obviously it's a teabagger behind this latest disruption.

Police cleared streets around Times Square on Friday after finding a cooler left on a sidewalk a block away from where where a failed car bomb was found over the weekend.

Police have created some distance between the cooler and people and are "in an abundance of caution," looking into whether the white cooler was abandoned by someone, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said.

The bomb squad was X-raying the soft-sided cooler found on the pedestrian mall and planned to determine whether it posed a threat, Browne said.

A white cooler, no less.

Contessa Brewer anxiously prays a Muslim didn't do this.

Update: In a shocking development, police found water bottles in the cooler.
