How many Republicans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Four hundred and sixty-two:
twelve to investigate Clinton's involvement in the failure of the old bulb,
twenty-three to deregulate the light bulb industry, sixteen to cut funding
for alternative lighting R&D, thirty-four to cut the tax rate on light
bulbs, fifty-three to design a block grant so the states can change the
bulb, forty-one to talk with defense contractors about night-vision gear
instead, and two hundred and eighty-three to pass a law making it illegal
to discuss naked bulbs (or screwing anything) on the Internet.
