Funny how you never hear about conservatives complain about why any of those things are unconstitutional.....
Perhaps they have a better understanding than you? Those fall under Article 1 section 8 "common defense." The army was specifically mentioned in order to provide a restriction on how appropriations are to be made. The Navy was mentioned specifically so that that requirement would not be imposed on it.
Lexy tax, use proceeds to promote general welfare. The Federal Government was specifically empowered under Article 1, Section 8: The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States... There's your explanation. Where in the Constitution are they empowered to make me buy insurance?
The article indicates that a big portion of the patent covers prioritizing the search results based on a number of factors. One of the main factors listed as price. Google's search doesn't factor price into the rankings, so it likely both wouldn't infringe and would not be an example of prior art.

Under seventy years is not "always". Research as a significant portion of the Universities priorities is a product of the twentieth century, specifically the post WWII era. In 1961 Eisenhower warned us that "a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity." It is relatively rare today that a student is allowed to pursue pure research - the kind that has no direct application in a weapon ^h^h^h^h^h^h product.
I appreciate the clarification. I went to a couple of websites to verify this, and what I found is that the button images were served from the domain of the website I was visiting, and Facebook domains (facebook.com, fbcdn.net, etc.) only get tapped if the button is clicked. I do not suggest that this is always the case as my search was very cursory, but it might be less of an issue than suggested.
This project has generated better illustrative proof than ever before that randomness will eventually produce everything.
This project proves no such thing. It has shown only that randomness can reproduce (duplicate) something that already existed. This project can never reproduce War and Peace in the original Russian, as the Cyrillic alphabet is not included. It demonstrates effectively that some people will see what they want to see.
Perhaps a breakdown by party would be helpful to you. Kennedy was dead, and the act was legislation - not administrative. Johnson was instrumental in its passage, Kennedy never could have gotten it through Congress. Johnson twisted a lot of Democrats arms, but not nearly so many Republicans. Both parties are very different than the parties were in 1964, the historical legacies of each party is largely BS, but the historical facts remain a matter of record.
A treaty. Perhaps you were not aware that when the US signs a treaty, it is binding on our citizens and government, and can even pre-empt the Constitution according to the SCOTUS. If you don't like that, perhaps you will make your voice heard before the UN treaty on gun control that Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama are working on takes away your 2nd Amendment rights.
Everything you said about the DEA with respect to Primatene Mist is bullshit. Primatene Mist has epinephrine, not ephedrine. The DEA did seem to have a slanted view of Primatene tablets, but that seems to be in its favor rather than against.
No, you were TOLD you had to sign it. If you chose not to they would have no ability compel you to do so unless they had informed you of this requirement before you entered into their program. Imposing such a requirement after you had invested your time and tuition would constitute a unilateral change to the existing contract between you and the university.
It is a tool, but it is not appropriate for most children. Giving hammers to kindergarteners is more likely to produce mass destruction than carpentry. Watching one's own child and extrapolating that for an entire school system is a formula for failure.
Big oil pays no income taxes. They have effectively a negative income tax, a tax offset, which they use to reduce the other taxes they pay and royalties owed to the government for drilling on public lands, and fines for their malfeasances. The industry would have you believe that royalties are taxes, they are not, they are a cost of doing business just as postage is to Amazon.com. So, yes, they pay taxes, but a whole lot less than they claim. I would like to see tax offsets eliminated. So if you owe -$1M in income tax and owe $1M in royalties, the bill is $1M instead of $0. The government sucks at business and should, as you suggest, stop picking winners and losers.

And under which of these does the mandatory healthcare insurance fall? Try again because that article does not apply.
Not if its from Abby Normal.

Works?
That could be used as evidence that there is a benevolent God.

What part of "Don't use facebook" is so confusing to you? Requesting an image from Facebook and using Like Buttons ARE using Facebook.

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't let you do that.
Come to think of it I think this applies to OS X Lion vs Snow Leopard.

Based on your arguments in the dozens of posts above, I would have to agree that this definition is apt.
