TAIPEI (XFN-ASIA) - The long-delayed bill on Taiwan's purchase of a 10 bln usd package of US weapons was blocked again at parliament after a legislator opened a can of tear gas at a procedural committee meeting to stop discussion of the proposed bill.
Independent legislator Lee Ao, known for his strong opposition to the bill, appeared at the podium donning a gas mask with a can of tear gas in hand.
'I am an old man and I can risk my life...and see who dares to pass the bill,' said Lee, who was also brandishing an electric stun gun.

Only if things were like that in our congress, there would have never been troubles in Iraq.
