Hehe. Maybe they should do random drugs testing for all parliaments around the world...You think taking mind influencing drugs could be considered doping? Does it help at all during the boring debates? :p

What I want to know is, what's with this European craze for snorting their coke off of toilets.

I was just being a smart alek. I think the only difference between a congress and a parliament is that in a parliamentary government, you vote for a party. While in a government featuring a congress, you elect the legislature by individual.
