And I'm shocked, shocked to find out that it's a middle-aged, disgruntled white man from a red state who sent President Obama a "white powder" letter.
A man from the Denver area pleaded guilty Thursday to sending letters containing white powder to President Barack Obama, members of Congress from Colorado and Alabama, and Argentine consulates.
Jay DeVaughn, 41, of Aurora faced 13 federal counts of mailing threatening communications.

He mailed a letter to Obama that was intercepted Sept. 10, 2009, according to court documents. The letter called health care reform championed by Obama and passed by Congress a "joke" and contained a plastic bag of white powder and a reference to anthrax.
The white powder in all the letters was harmless, but emergency personnel were called when the various offices received the mail, authorities said.
Still no massive bioterrorist attack as predicted by the Graham-Talent comedy team.
