1. that's a great show
no way could Bush ever do that. Blair, for all his faults, is one articulate and sharp guy. It's fun watching the Prime Minister's Questions. Those guys get after Tony hardcore. It's entertaining as hell. Wait... is hell entertaining?

3. that is one sweet system they have...
and with Labor in control for many years the Brits have an excellent record of sharing the wealth. In this country the rich get super rich, poor get poorer.

4. I love watchin them
It so great how everyone can speak out when they want, yell "liar", laugh and applaud....they are so full of life and they call Blair out on everything. I don't understand how he hasn't been thrown out by now.

And they call the english stuffy? Our Congress is a complete controlled snoozer

5. Sir Tarpsell was hilarious
Asking Bliar about the "folly" of Iraq and the "divine guidance" used to go in there. Then asking which Archangel would give deliverance.
The whole gallery was raucous.

You just don't see this sort of hotseat thing in US politricks, it is sadly a missing component.

Bliar is so used to it , he handles it well and takes it in stride.

Bush would be calling for his mommy.
