It's the fact that Congress and the President couldn't agree on things, that helped the economy; It wasn't the Rebublican congress(and it wasn't Clinton either.)
My three step plan to drive down the cost of drugs and healthcare:
A. Outlaw drug advertising just like ads for cigarettes and hard liquor. Its totally inappropriate and disceptive to advertise drugs using slick ads, like soda pop or underarm deodorant. Confine them to advertising to doctors and then only in the form of factual dissertations on the pros and cons of the drug, audited by a 3rd party for accuracy.
B. Mandate that drugs and publicly funded health breakthroughs be provided to the public at cost or with a regulated profit margin.
C. Rather than outlawing U.S. agencies, like Medicare, from negotiating fair prices for wholesale drug purchases, make it law that those agencies MUST negotiate fair wholesale prices, like Canada and most other sane nations do.
Or they could just get rid of the patent system and competition will eliminate all those problems.
1000 years is about the time from the founding of Rome to its fall. If you only consider when it was an empire it would be more like 500 years. If you considered the time from the founding of the US to its fall it would be at least 250 years, and it would be about 1000 years for the French Monarchy. You're comparison isn't anymore accurate than Microsoft's comparisons between Windows running on a supercomputer and Linux running on an underclocked 386
Democracy is great... I'm not sure that it can ever really work in practice
Arrow's Theorem says it can't. To have a true democracy you actually need a condition that implies both monotonicity and independence of irrelevent alternatives; voting your true preferences shouldn't hurt your interests.
This was the standard the Supreme Court used to decide that child porn for instance, could be outlawed, while most pornography couldn't. It sounds to me like this Parent's TV organization wants porn on television.
3) Shows like Southpark are not mentioned. Why? Probably because they realize southpark would make a show about them and tear their organization to shreds in the minds of most teenagers, so they ignore it.
They lost all credibility among teenagers, when they put the word parent's in their name.
South Park shows a hamster being insterted into and traveling through a man's colon but bleeps the word "fuck". I don't fucking get it. We are prudes and nasty fuckers all in the same show.
And they also show Paris Hilton being inserted in there.
He's using Euler's Theorem, which is a generalization of Fermat's Little Theorem; Other than giving the wrong name for the theorem, what he said is correct.
You're right that two sets can have different sizes, but your explanation is completely wrong. For instance the set of even natural numbers is a subset of the set of natural numbers, but they are the same size because one can be obtained from the other by renaming it's elements.
I'll say this to you, as I say to a lot of people who belittle the religious/moral, PROVE THEM WRONG! Until you can definitively prove them wrong on God or their faith, your opinion on the matter isn't worth it's wait in salt.
And until you can prove yourself right on the matter your opinion is worthless too. The difference is that you are shoving your worthless opinion down their throats, while they aren't doing anything with their worthless opinions that affects you in any way.

There's no such thing as fat cells.

yes
Actually Bush Sr. was only vice president for 8 years not 80.

And obviously the fact that the government gives people money when they are old has stopped them from dying as children.
No, the WMDs were abducted by aliens.
There is the Libertarian Party.
They were talking about special relativity, not general relativity
Many libertarians, myself included, think that limited liability should be abolished, and private industry would have to pay their bills.

Not only are they Christians, but they don't know/care what Christ had to say on the matter(see eg. Matt 6:5-6.)

Yes; They don't make linux any worse by doing that, and Linux programmers could reverse engineer it and implement the changes themselves.

No they'll have a hearing on the 'fact' the sky is green.

It doesn't conflict with the copyright clause; It was an amendment, and so replaces it, just as the 13th amendment eliminated the 3/5 clause.

You did.
If not, do you think geeks would still be around?
In his example the money was given to the charities voluntarily too, but that doesn't change the fact that it was stolen from a bank(taxpayers) first.
