What a waste of everybody's time that was. This person was obviously invited here to answer questions not listen to speeches.

If you want to be the better governors, you have to start governing better. That means put your emotions in check.

The speech wasn't for him. You missing the point doesn't make it a waste of time.

Grandstanding. Plain and simple. Still a waste of everybody's time. Always has been and always will be. If you take the role of a questioner, do your job.

She is an elected representative of a state. She has innumerable opportunities to make a speech. This wasn't intended to be one of them.

Wait till you see what the people on the right have to say when it's their turn. Will you criticize them as well for what you think shouldn't take place in an official forum? I bet you won't.

Wait? Are you new here? Both sides have been grandstanding every chance they get since before you or I were born, and, like I said, it's a waste of time.

If they plan to give speeches when they accepted the job of questioner, they lied. Regardless of their (or my) party affiliation, they shouldn't be in that position to waste the important time of the legislature.

From the EU and agree, American politics is fucked and this kind of behaviour shouldn't be praised, yet it seems to be what both sides cheer on
