I agree with you on that, DC. If you have ever watched a Parliamentary session and the PM question thingy it's awesome. When I was in DC, my roomates and I loved watching C-Span and marvel at the Brits in action (the other MPs are good too). Tony Blair (regardless of whether you like or agree with him) is fantastic to watch in action. He is simply an amazing speaker and politician.
While I do like the British system in many ways, I am partial to the US checks and balances.
Oh DC, I sympathize with the whole "Taxation Without Representation" thing out there. It certainly seems like someone messed that one up.
I voted for Clinton twice, Gore once and Kerry once. As a conservative (erstwhile moderate), I certainly do NOT take responsibility for George Bush's actions, thank you very much. I take accountability and responsibility for MY OWN actions.
