... Q: How many Republicans does it take to screw in a light bulb? A: Four hundred and seventy one: 12 to investigate Clinton's involvement in the failure of the old bulb; 23 to deregulate the light bulb industry; 16 to cut funding for alternative lighting R&D; 34 to cut the marginal tax rate on high-wattage light bulbs; 9 to threaten trade sanctions if Germany and Japan don't start buying more 110-volt bulbs; 53 to design a block grant so the states can change the bulb; 41 to chat with defence contractors about equipping everyone in the building with night-vision gear instead;
And 283 to pass a law making it illegal to discuss naked bulbs, or screwing anything, on the Internet.
