Can you believe it?
One guy (allegedly) goes gonzo & they close the place down.
While I think a closed down capitol's the next best thing to gridlock, I don't buy this baloney, either.

Wouldn't you think if the crooked SOBs had wanted the day off so bad, they'd have come up with something a bit more creative?

...politicians, geshhh.

Would have been nice if you had included the word Building in title.

Between the stampeed your catchy title created and the relentless attacks of the Sultans of Graphics it took my low bandwith connection three attempts to find out what was being reported.

Capitol Reopens After Short Incident
Suspicious Protester Wraps Himself In Duct Tape

POSTED: 2:29 p.m. EST March 6, 2003
UPDATED: 2:45 p.m. EST March 6, 2003

WASHINGTON -- Parts of the U.S. Capitol were closed off Thursday afternoon because of a suspicious protester.

News4 has learned a person wearing long white robes was in the area of the first floor of the Capitol and was holding some type of protest.

Witnesses said the man was wrapping himself in duct tape and talking about why the United States should not engage in a conflict with Iraq.

The middle portion of the Capitol was closed off on all floors, but the building was not evacuated.

The man was taken into custody and the building has since reopened. Investigators said the man had nothing dangerous.
