Conservatives Need To Be Tricked Into Buying Better Lightbulbs

If only manufactures called them "electric magnums," or the NRA endorsed them:

...when the CFLs came with a "protect the environment" label, conservatives and even moderates were less likely to buy them.

What kind of idiot are you? Those dumb light bulbs are the most ridiculous thing ever forced upon the American public. They don’t last near as long as advertised, they are dim and contain toxic substances like mercury . there is absolutely no reason to believe they are better for the environment. Although Madison liberals are silly and good for a few laughs, they can become a real menace when they try to push their foolish ideology on others. Hey, how about that global warming?? Look outside you moron.

CFL bulbs have less environmental impact, and cost less to operate.

However, contact your local FIRST Robotics team for LED lights that address all the fake Nonnim Muss concerns, as well as help a local high school team encourage kids in science and technology.

Also, "It's cold out so global warming nonny nonny boo boo" is LOL. news flash: what you see outside your window =/= the entire world.

What you see out your window is climate in the extremes - - as predicted by climate change science.

The CFLs are fine - - even for a person like me with vision issues. We still have some originals from 1993. We've saved a ton of money over the years.

The incandescent bulbs went away under a George Bush initiative. It was non-partisan.

And the LEDs coming in are the best yet.

Celebrate progress, savings, cleaner air.
