It was a false alarm - construction workers operating some equipment in an underground carpark are believed to have caused the bangs - but it prompted wags to suggest the gunfire was actually the Republican Speaker of the House, Dennis Hastert, shooting himself in the foot.

If it is the second reason, note what I said in my previous posting.
"They did not scream separation of powers when the FBI got warrants and raided judges offices before.So there has been a president set."
I knew it had been said the congressional offices had not been searched in 219 years but in listening to Britt Hume (I think it was) this morning he told about the FBI searching Judges offices before, so there goes the separation of powers argument.
