Rate-Limiting Question

If I'm trying to rate-limit traffic using a policy-map rather than interface
rate-limiting.

What's the difference between:

Router(config-pmap-c)#police ?
  <8000-2000000000> Bits per second <<<<<<<THIS OPTION
  cir Committed information rate
  rate Specify police rate <<<<<<<THIS OPTION

For example, using the second option, if I set the statement to "police rate
128000 bps conform-action transmit exceed action drop", what's the different
with just setting that bps in the first option?

Thanks,

Ed
