4. Sorry...

I was talking about the fact that we now have so little faith in our government, we wouldn't much of what was being offered as answers.

3. Nope. But many of their politicians were trained in oratory. Ours, generally, were not.

When on their feet, most of ours are, to be blunt, inarticulate oafs.

5. I live watching it, much wittier than congress.

6. I love Question Time!

[Aristus]

7. No. I love it.

I find it riveting politics. And very entertaining.

I'll never forget the mockery Conservative Prime Minister John Major used to get, justifiably, for his standard retort: "I refeh my right honorable friend to the awnswer I gave a maw-ment ago..."

I imagine it's what a session of the US House or Senate would have looked like, in terms of debate, discussion, and oration, in the early to mid 19th Century. Of course, as we are not a parliamentary govt style of the Westminster System, PM's Question time is not feasible.

SNL did a spoof of Prime Ministers Questions in the late 1990s, Mike Myers played John Major...
