Children, wait your turn... .

Rep. Beverly Woolley, in the speaker's chair while the speaker is politicking on the floor, just cut the mics when Anchia and Berman got into a heated argument over a bill. The two were raising their voices, and talking over each other, but it was nowhere NEAR the irritating yelling and interrupting that has happened TIME AND TIME AGAIN on the House floor.

It's raised my blood pressure more than once, try several times a week, several sessions running. Rarely does the chair tell them to quieten down and use your inside voices.

(After all, this ain't the Senate).

And yet twice during this relatively calm debate, Woolley in the chair has smacked her gavel.

The second time, she cut the mics and said, "One at a time, members."

WHAT?!! Is she lost? Does she know where she is?? Does she feel like a teacher up there, is she getting tired of doing what the parliamentarian tells her to do?

The House started whooping and mocking when she did that. I mean, really. Berman and Anchia is a match-up that NOBODY should be stopping.
