    What are the odds she wasn't armed at all, and all the shots fired were from law enforcement?

    I'm betting she was not armed.

    She was a Congressional page delivering papers to The White House and made a wrong turn.

    I don't understand the point of doing a press conference where the spokesman can't give any information at all. He doesn't know the condition of the suspect, whether or not there was a kid in the car, the condition of the injured officer, "Q: Was the driver a woman? A: We believe so." or anything else.

    Information is more limited due to budget crisis.

    Not to worry, I'm sure reporters will get lots of accurate info from anonymous law enforcement sources.

    Tapper says he wants to give us "bullet points." Not the best choice of words.
