When I read this story about Ukraine's Parliament I was instantly amused and insanely jealous.
Dude, these are adults elected by adults and they brought smoke bombs and eggs to work to express how pissed off they were at being sold out by other adults elected by adults.
You and I have been sold out as badly, and possibly on even worse terms, yet our Congress and Senate doesn't have a single person willing and able to bring eggs or smoke bombs to the floor. We get nervous when one of our elected politicians calls the President a liar, which is a bona fide qualification to run for the job of President.
Why can't we get leadership as good as the Ukraine? Do we have to let the former Soviet Union build bases in Iowa or can we just elect people with normal reactions to human outrages?
