What Is It About Congress...
That turns adults into twelve year olds with piss poor manners? I'm just saying, an august (august definition - Noble, venerable, majestic, awe-inspiring, often of the highest social class) body such as Congress, shouldn't have people screaming nasty things out of turn.
Yes, I understand there is a level of frustration, but there's always been debate in politics, and to scream out "You Lie," or "Babykiller" is slanderous and childish (it's the adult version of sticking your tongue out at someone). I went in search of information to find out how rare it is for outbursts in Congress and found this article. which, makes it seem like debate in Congress was more of a contact sport in the old days...
