"The War is on here" --Canadian Parliament ready to rumble

[whirlygigspin]

Ottawa,
Non stop screaming, shouting and insult throwing were the order of the day today, as the Canadian House of Commons descended into a rowdy raucous "shark feeding frenzy" on the Government during Question Period.

1. Quite the slugfest!

I have been overdosing on popcorn lately, lol.

3. Damn, I had the afternoon off and it never occured to me to

turn on CPAC

4. That's the first time I've seen Question Period...

...it makes the U.K. House of Commons look like evensong in a Monastery.

Very entertaining though.
