Reply #41: Have you ever watched when the U.K. Parliament asks the Prime Minister questions?

Edit to remove apostrophe that was unnecessary

It's usually much more entertaining than anything you might see in American politics. I remember a few years ago when one of the Ministers asked Tony Blair a question which he promptly avoided with some bullshit answer that didn't really address the question. Not much of a surprise for a politician to do that, but when the next Minister had his turn to ask a question he said (I'm paraphrasing here), "I have only one question. Are you going to answer his question?" (Referring to the previously inadequately answered question.) 'Twas a beautiful thing. I wish we would see things like that in the U.S.

BTW - I have seen Bush allow follow up questions, but certainly not when he doesn't like the original one.
