You're SO right. I love watching foreign politicians in their setting of parliament. Korea, for example, is a fave of mine cos they full on attack each other like it's a cage match. Blood is drawn.

American's carry an air of propriety that's really a farce so they can stab others in the back later on and to their own advantage. Really, an excuse to behave like a total douche bag to magnify their inhumanity.

Its a shame you probably don't have many moderate or actual centrist senior officers in the military. If i were one, I'd just send a firing squad in and put the republicans and the corporate sell outs up against a wall and shoot them.

Then take over the government and set about some actual reform. Its better than any of the weak sauce this guy will pass. It will also get rid of the corporate shrills and prevent the far right loons from coming to power again.

The yelling wasn't that bad though. The British parliament will normally jeer at each other during speeches. The speaker shouts "order" a few times. If you really want to make your point you go down to the floor and swing the parliamentary mace which will get you removed by the sergent at arms and banned for a few days. Although its not as much of a statement as it once was. :p

SO SAY WE ALL! I ♥ airlocks.

Also, if all these old rich upper crust pro slavery white dudes had no health care or money they sure as hell would be clamouring for the president to fix the problem for them. Self-righteous bastards. Total fuckwads.

It's sad that no matter how hard humans try to govern themselves one side will always loose. Transference of power would only lead to more problems so this is the lesser of two evils. *shrug* I mean seriously, this country could go to shit in two shakes of a stick.

I watch the Brit politics on CSPAN over here. It's pretty freaking funny. I did see one guy get maced, he fell over like a house of cards. Then they dragged his ass out door and he was STILL yelling. Politicians should all go to parliament after they've had a few pints, then it'd be MOAR fun. Drunken brawling in a public forum. LOL.

This is why I like Dune and BSG. It magnifies the stupidity of humans.

Hah. So true.

Honestly, that outburst of Wilson's was really unprofessional. It's one thing if you don't agree with the president is saying. Everyone's free to have their own opinion. If he disagrees, then he's free to bitch about it to the press like everyone else, but to do that right when the president is making his speech, in front of all of Congress? WTF?

Though, if you look at history, much much worse has happened. Senators attacking each other physically, beating the hell out of each other with canes. *snorts*

Such a jackass. If he's not careful, he may cause SC to go Democrat. *snerk* That would really flip Stephen Colbert's lid. ;D

Seriously. Don't republicans hold stock in Fox News or something... He's being an immature child throwing a temper tantrum cos he can't have his way. I love how people like Wilson pontificate about being a true American and the greatest blah blah of generational pride and yadda yadda ya when this country, as we know it today, was founded on immigration. It's amazing how weak-minded some people are and they're content to be that way.

I love watching parliaments of other nations. They totally go at it like a MMA fight.

LOL. I can see him now... "Nation..." LOL. He cracks me the hell up. Oh, satire.
