I think Parliamentary Question Time would be much more interesting to watch if the polititians were forced to breath helium before they spoke.

Yes, helium would be funnier. And as it's an asphyxiant I could at least hope for some (more) brain damage.

No, we don't have Question Time. We don't have any shouting from other parts of the chamber when somebody's speaking, either. Congress is supposed to be dignified and respectful. At times they put on a pretty good illusion of it.

Question Time seems like a great idea. The closest thing to it here is a press conference, but since a reporter has no official power the pol doesn't really have to answer any too-uncomfortable questions. They usually don't.
