Wow. This is one time where freedom of the press is a disadvantage. They just lied to us, Bush obviously asked the guard to let the agent go. Never mind, then.
The article describes him as 'diving into a crowd to rescue' his agent. He walked (quickly) pushed his way past one person, and told the security to let his guard in.
The White House should downplay the situation. Nothing courageous, nor negative really happened.
