A. impeach several Supreme Court justices
B. eliminate the Supreme Court

Mad Scientist -- You did great. Are you sure about #8A?

The question I thought was the trickiest was the last one, on taxes.
 
So far, great marks from everyone. I knew the people on this message board were pretty bright -- academically speaking...

FDR was evil. We are still suffering from his policies.
 
Are you saying that because you got that question wrong? LOL!

xsited1 -- that was what I got.

I actually got that one right. I missed the Lincoln debate question and the one about Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and that other guy. I can't remember what the other two were. I'm sure it's Bush's fault.

Nice. It seems like quite a few of us got tripped up by the last question. To me, that answer is incorrect. I picked A.
