Here's a follow-up:

Similar story from the Moonie Rag:

http://washingtontimes.com/national/20070130-114007-1417r.htm

Anyway, the US Capitol Police Chief denies telling anyone not to make 
arrests.  He also denies telling anyone to fall back.  So the story might 
have been false.  Apparently, some unnamed reporters claim that some 
unnamed officers contradict the Chief's story.  Well, who are these 
people.

You will probably notice that there are apparent inconsistencies within 
these stories.  Or maybe Jack Kingman just doesn't believe the Capitol 
Police Chief.

Anyway, I'm sure there will be more about this.  If you search google 
news, you will see that it is an obsession of the Christian right at this 
time.  They are quite sure that Nancy Pelosi was behind it even though 
they have no evidence whatsoever and she was in Afghanistan when it 
happened.
