There has gotta be some trick to these Rants. I think I'm being hypnotized or something. He can't be right every bloody time.

Can he?

[gundamWWW]

I have a solution.

Send the MP's to the centre of the floor of the house, and let them fight it out.

Last MP standing wins.

Because the current system, seem to be on the brink of failure.

We actually HAD a teacher in grade 7 do just that... I believe he was an alcoholic but that's besides the point. By the end of the class there were chairs scattered, at least 3 people standing on desks, and we'd locked someone out of the classroom for laughs. Rick's exactly right, that's pretty much how I envision Question Period most of the time.

Well, that or howler monkeys. I'm always torn.

Some people here in the U.S. wonder why we don't have a question period where the Republicans get a chance at Obama and the Democrats. The President has almost done that as he has had a couple of "meetings" with the Republicans but thet haven't been very productive. Any thoughts? Would it be a good idea or a bad idea?

I have seen Question Period on Cable many years ago on TV and yes these 'politicians' actually will do exactly as Rick just said.They yell,pound their fist's on their desks ,chat,scream,everything but do a mature job.

I blew a hole in my Mukluk, and I can't start my canoe! Now I'll never be able to watch those fat arses act like kids, gees. Oh well, at leaste there is Rick! Except he isn't fat, or an arse, nor a politician for that matter, but still fun to watch.
