If he and the liberal majority had "shoved a bill that should have been discussed and changed a lot more over a much longer time down our throats," then they would have passed it while they still had the supermajority and could pass it with a public option. And I actually do want this bill. I'm very happy about this…

So if it is that easy to prove, then prove it. How am I supposed to explain how I disagree with you if I don't know why you think what you think. The fact that I am asking you for examples makes it pretty clear that I disagree with your claim that examples of his poor policies are everywhere.

Aren't democracies supposed to work through working together? Yes, he could respond to the Republican party by throwing a giant temper tantrum and saying, "fine, if you don't want to do anything, we won't do anything!" or he could do what he's doing and show that he is making every attempt to come up with reasonable…

Can you give specific examples? It's hard to have a legitimate discussion when you only make claims without providing evidence.

So if there were a custody battle and one of the people involved found a letter implying that the other was unfit to parent, it would be unacceptable for the court to see that? Or if there was a corrupt politician, and prosecutors had a reasonable suspicion of incriminating evidence in that politician's emails, it…

Yes, there are problems with nuclear power in the US, but they should be treated as a separate issue from nuclear weapons. Grouping nuclear weapons in with nuclear power is just senseless fear-mongering. If we want to inspire a reasonable conversation we need to treat the issues as what they are—two separate issues.…

Not all religion denies evolution. I'm a Catholic, and I agree that evolution is the theory that best explains how life got to where it is, and this isn't in conflict with my faith. In fact, the Catholic Church has specifically said that science is good and that evolution does not conflict with the Catholic faith. And…

It's not a matter of energy. It's a matter of what type of radiation is present. X-rays are a type of radiation called ionizing radiation. Radio waves are non-ionizing radiation. It is very hard for non-ionizing radiation to cause ionization (as their name would suggest). For an overview of the difference, I would…

Can he bring back the deal where students get money off of an iPod when they buy a laptop?

It's a shame you can't reply without promoting.

And by the rest of the world, do you mean around 10% of people? For the majority of humans, summer is at the same time as the US's. Also, this is sold on a website with prices in USDs, Euros, and pounds, implying that it is marketed to Americans and Europeans.

Aren't they all just named after cats?

Promote.

Do they have the infrastructure to mass produce these vehicles? The US military currently has over 300,000 Humvees. No, they were not made all at once, but the reason that these contracts go to the big defense companies is because you have to make a pretty large number of vehicles to outfit one of the largest…

There was a study in Nature a while back about how the impact of eliminating mosquitoes would be little to none. [www.nature.com]

What about the elimination of smallpox, or rinderpest? It is possible to eliminate an organism (and yes, I am using organism loosely here) with minimal negative effects. Nature had an article about how eliminating mosquitoes wouldn't actually change that much for the worse, but it could eliminate some diseases.

Nonsense, they just need to open up the windows and get some fresh air moving around.

Probably one person. It looked like this was a sheet that they filled out for fun. I mean, it's three people filling out customs forms in a country that has many more people flying in and out every day.
