Whatever it was, it was cruising. Probably checking up on their boy Wolf.

I would not believe it unless the UFO landed on the Mall and the alien went up to shake hands with Obama on national TV.
That’s change “I want to believe” in!
badum dum!
lol a flash video of a flash video.
Funny… a web video of a web video.
It is indeed a UFO. UFO simply means unidentified flying object. I can’t identify it, you can’t identify it, the news can’t either, so it is most definitely a UFO. If you are implying it’s alien technology, then maybe you are a bit kooky.
Well people, get used to it:
These days, in America, everything IS alien technology.
Looks like an insect at about 2 meters from the camera. I’d like to see the original video. Clearly you can see how the object flies infront of the washington monument on the slowed down pass. It’s a bug, oh weell fun while it lasted.
I love how they get more frames when they slow it down.
It was Bush returning to the White House. He forgot his car keys

I think it was a bird. Look at the flight path, it dips as it enters the screen. If you assume that it was a large object from far away this would be a huge drop in altitude.
A bird seen from a hundred yards or so would look the same.
The security people would have been throwing missiles at this thing if a.) Its more than glitch in a machine and b.) It was any size at all.
#10. Fastest damn bird I’ve ever seen.

Kinda cold and late in the season for an insect, don’t ya think?

Maybe a bird. Maybe.
Two, maybe three, million people and it was only spotted on a YouTube video?
Looked like a shoe to me.
looks like a bee about 5-7 feet out from the camera…

Much better image, this time from the HD stream on TV (so, not a flash artifact). . . It’s flying flat and fast, and it doesn’t have the profile of a horsefly or anything else that can reach an appreciable speed. Judging by how fast the size recedes once it banks in front of the monument, I’d say it’s going at least hundreds of miles an hour if it’s any bigger than an orange.
I used to keep bees, and I’ve never known one to fly more than a few feet above the ground. And horseflies don’t fly in the winter.
And missiles? Really? How, did you see that thing? Even if you knew it was coming it would be gone before you could even target it, above a large crowd of people no less.

You might need to copy and paste that link, it didn’t fully linkafy for some reason. 😛
I watched it in HD a bunch of times.
It’s a bird. It flies between the camera and the Washington Monument.
It was Dick Cheney’s ride.
I’m a little late to the party, but who did they hang from the left side of that tower in the background?

I don’t see anything.
If y’all are seeing things, we have drugs for that, you know.
Adam Curry needs to lay off the acid.
Tempest, meet teapot. Teapot, meet tempest. Bug, bird, machts nichts. Take your pick, it’s certainly not any kind of aircraft or spacecraft. Sheesh!
You -have- to click the HD option under the video, or it’s very hard to see.
