Let's see: Our Wisconsin Supreme Court is choking each other. Our New Jersey lawmakers are threatening to punch each other in the head. But when it comes to crazy fights in government, we're still way behind Afghanistan. 

At least the fight in their Parliament was over something important: The impeachment of President Hamid Karzai. Our conflicts have generally been over such noble causes as getting even after personal slights. 

Nevertheless, this showdown raised once again that timeless question: Which would you rather get hit by? A shoe or a water bottle?
