Wouldn't it be great if congress turned into the British Parliament tonight

[catmandu57]

Catcalling and booing and letting * know how much he was loved.

1. Bush would have to appear and answer questions, and we could get rid of the senate...

because the flyover states are grossly over-represented there.

Two Big Plusses.

2. I was just thnking the same thing.

I'd love to hear it, actual democratic representatives standing up and booing at obvious lies and spin!
Make *'s ignorant fans stop and wonder "well whuttid he say ta make 'em boo like that?"
Yea, televise the boo's!

3. No, It Would Be Completely Inappropriate. Trust Me, We Don't Want To Start This Precedent.

4. Aw c'mon

Wouldn't you just love to see the look on lil boots face when he finds out he's not god's gift to humanity? I'd love to see him lose control of his bowels in front of the whole world.

5. Be careful what you wish for

If congress turned into the British Parliament, you might suddenly find that Bush had a majority of Republicans there, totally disproportionate to his popular vote, and pretty well impregnable - instead of an opposition.

I see some advantages in the separation of powers. But then the grass is always greener, etc.

Don't American congress members ever boo or catcall?

7. I've never seen it

The best they can do is weak applause to show their displeasure. I don't want a parlimentary system, I just wish someone would stand up and call * the liar that he is.

6. I would prefer a stony silence.

Just complete silence as he waited for a round of applause that never came.

[Justitia]

8. We've definitely had some boos at past SOTUs, subtle, but noticeable.

I love when the camera pans the faces of the opposition party.

I want eye-rolling and pure disgust!

When an opposition mbr is smiling, I always wonder "what are you smiling about, dipshit?"

9. I will be very curious how the repigs are going to react

will they follow their leader over the cliff, and I wonder if Joe is going to get another kiss of death from W.
