Dim all the lights sweet darling,
'Cause tonight it's all the way.
Turn up the old Victrola,
Gonna dance the night away.
Love just don't come easy,
No, it seldom does.
When you find the perfect love,
Let it fill you up.

What sort of sick satisfaction do you get to sit in your home in Chicago and rejoice in what I can't do in my home in Philly.

You can do anything you want, buy all the incandescent bulbs you want. They'll still be around as long as anyone wants to buy them. If enough people don't want them, they'll go away.
But thanks to the standards you'll have many more choices of bulbs.

When this standards law passed in 2007, 100 Republicans in Congress were all for it, and Bush signed it. Now that we that other guy in the White House, suddenly improving efficiency becomes a bad idea.
You guys crack me up, really you do.

They are so obvious, that's what kills me. And they get so upset that people can see right through them.

---

You are not reading the same law I am reading. Does this look like I can buy whatever I want?

As of Jan. 1, 2012, inefficient 100-watt bulbs will no longer be available at most stores. Also on the way out are traditional 75-watt bulbs in 2013 and 40-watt and 60-watt versions in 2014.

Oh, the selective cut and paste. Cute.

"Incandescent bulbs are not disappearing. Today's energy-savings choices include incandescent lighting that is more efficient, and more expensive to purchase, than the old standbys.

Rep. Ed Markey, D-Mass., held up a new Sylvania incandescent that meets the efficiency standards and costs $1.69. "You don't have to buy one of those funny-looking new light bulbs," he said.

Under existing rules, new bulbs will have to be 25 to 30 percent more efficient than traditional incandescent models. As of Jan. 1, 2012, inefficient 100-watt bulbs will no longer be available at most stores. Also on the way out are traditional 75-watt bulbs in 2013 and 40-watt and 60-watt versions in 2014.""

Because politics is all he has, otherwise, why would he spend so much time here?

What makes it ridiculous is not only is he terrible at defending his own party here, he ardently defends the groups that want nothing to do with him (except to fleece him of his money).

If he was defending my organization, I would tell him to cool it, as I don't think he has converted anyone to his way of thinking.

Is this the same as what Obama said about coal? Oh, you can have coal-fired plans. It is just that you go bankrupt building them. Where is the rack where I can buy 25% more efficient tungsten bulbs? Cowards can't even say what they mean.

You better run out and buy a few crates of the old bulbs.

You can store them next to the catalytic converter, seat-belts, airbags, and all that other stuff you ripped out of your car because you are so opposed to government overreach.

If you have an industrial or high-tech job - or really, any job other than those available in a slave-powered cash crop economy (ie, a third world economy) thank a liberal.

If you're not a slave or "indentured servant" (white slave), don't think protection of slavery belongs in the constitution, if you've never been chained to a boat where half the passengers die, been whipped, had your family split up, been forced to "breed" with another slave you've never met, been raped by your boss, or killed for not being profitable, thank a liberal.

If you oppose political parties starting massive wars to destroy America, just because they lost the election, and killing hundreds of thousands of Americans in process - if you just don't have that much fanatical hatred of Lincoln's policy of to restricting slavery to states where it already existed, thank a liberal.

If you are not a slave toiling to build a pyramid for some lazy dictator who's so spoiled he thinks he's god, and won't even see it until he's dead, thank a liberal.

If you have not been killed as a human sacrifice in the name of some god, thank a liberal.

In short, if you've ever enjoyed anything of the post-stone-age world, thank a liberal.

...And if not, become a conservative.

Hey, if ACME toilet paper is good enough for the Coyote, it's good enough for me.

Leave it to Markey to be the spokesman for dim bulbs.

I am trying to think how in any way liberals have had to change their personal lives as a result of a law that they did not like. It is easy to tell other how to live. The beauty of this light bulb fiasco is that it shines the light on who they really are.

Yep, Republicans have never told anyone how to live ... or whom they can/cannot marry, where they can/cannot live, when/how/if they can vote or where they can get proper health care. You seriously live in a fantasy world.

One has to excuse such posters that do think before they type.

If you have never suffered from an economy of massive deflation, and have never even heard of an economic phenomenon called a "panic", thank a liberal.

If your children go to school instead of working in coal mines, thank a liberal.

If you're a Native American and have not been killed or died in a concentration camp, or if you live near Native Americans and are not at war with them, thank a liberal.

If you have an industrial or high-tech job - or really, any job other than those available in a slave-powered cash crop economy (ie, a third world economy) thank a liberal.

If you're not a slave or "indentured servant" (white slave), don't think protection of slavery belongs in the constitution, if you've never been chained to a boat where half the passengers die, been whipped, had your family split up, been forced to "breed" with another slave you've never met, been raped by your boss, or killed for not being profitable, thank a liberal.

If you oppose political parties starting massive wars to destroy America, just because they lost the election, and killing hundreds of thousands of Americans in process - if you just don't have that much fanatical hatred of Lincoln's policy of to restricting slavery to states where it already existed, thank a liberal.

If you're part-Irish, Catholic, Jewish, or for that matter anything not Anglo-Saxon Protestant, and are allowed to live in America, and are not harassed and attacked for failing to be born Anglo-Saxon Protestant, or if you've ever bought or used anything built by a non-ASP American, thank a liberal.

If you kind of like freedom of speech, and don't want the state government to be able to censor you - (you think the 14th amendment is a good idea) - thank a liberal.

If you have ever bought or sold anything transported by the transcontinental railroad, or eaten food from a farm created by the railroad, thank a liberal.

If you think the US constitution is pretty cool, and have ever traveled to or done business with a country whose democracy was inspired by the American revolution, thank a liberal.

If you have not been drafted and used as cannon-fodder in some war caused by some petty insult between nobles, clan leaders, or other various overfed dictators, or suffered rape or looting in one of those countless wars, thank a liberal.

If you have not been tortured to death in a religious inquisition, thank a liberal.

If you don't have to walk though ankle-deep sewage in the streets (because sewers are big gummint), thank a liberal.

If you have never been raped, and then had the rapist escape punishment on the grounds that he marry you, thank a liberal.

If you are not a slave toiling to build a pyramid for some lazy dictator who's so spoiled he thinks he's god, and won't even see it until he's dead, thank a liberal.

If you have not been killed as a human sacrifice in the name of some god, thank a liberal.

In short, if you've ever enjoyed anything of the post-stone-age world, thank a liberal.

...And if not, become a conservative.

Poor SDguy has been working on a response to this post for several hours . . . watch this space.

He may not waste his time on cut and paste postings like a certain someone rails against.

And you know that TPPA John Dough is not the original author how?

Dakota's not mentioned even once.

Is it really necessary to quote the thing every time? Or is this a deliberate effort to kill the thread?

All they can do is try and make this about me, yet NONE of the points I posted have been challenged. I cannot imagine how it must feel to sit and squirm when faced with things that your party railed against, yet you enjoy.

BTW, the facts are not from me, but from here.

PS (for Dakota): I often edit my posts to make sure that I get my facts right. You may want to try it some time.

PPS (for billb): not everything I write is about the forum clown. Sometimes I just let him go and let him fail on his own.

it is not YOUR post, doofus. Even Black could tell.

Poor SDguy has been working on a response to this post for several hours . . . watch this space.

He may not waste his time on cut and paste postings like a certain someone rails against.

And you know that TPPA John Dough is not the original author how?

Dakota's not mentioned even once.

This gem needs to be repeated over and over again. Imagine how long dough boy has worked on it. How do I know? At his edit rate, this would have needed 15 edits at least.

Hi, $tevie!!

Any questions ... ?

You guys are nothing but a pack of cards!

@billb-- that was good!

After you discover you're riding a dead horse, your best strategy is to dismount.

NO ONE ever reads though lists like that except for cheerleaders - don't be silly

and there are some on that list that YOU disagree with...

"If you've ever driven on an interstate highway, thank a liberal."

You DO realize that is was SF liberals that said, "ENOUGH WITH THIS SH¡T! quit ruining our neighborhoods for GM's sake" and stopped several interstates from being built.

"If you have not been killed as a human sacrifice in the name of some god, thank a liberal."

WTF? are you going back 1000 years for this one?

several more are just utter BS - C&P is no substitute for writing and in this case is clearly was no help to the cause at all...

I don't agree with it all, yet the point I was trying to make was that there are things that liberals have championed that were for the betterment of society, where the GOP has repeatedly fought to stop (school integration comes to mind). Yes, there are some things I don't agree with 100% (no way in hell do I agree with the extreme leftists - I am right wing by their standards) yet I do agree with most.

I just copied the points from the link I provided, not from the link that Dakota pointed out (which, if he were to read what he linked to, that page referenced MY original source).

I was not trying to be a cheerleader, just driving home that the right has a pattern of being more pro business and anti change than the left.

Fine, cutting & pasting is no way a substitute for writing, but what does it matter for some on this side? You can provide all of the facts you want (and this has been done over and over) to prove their points incorrect, and they still come back with the same fact-free arguments. Maybe that seems like fun for you, but after a while, it is boring.

BTW, the facts are not from me, but from here.

Not only do you not post facts, you cannot read.

You only admitted to the wholesale lifting of the passage after you originally posted it, and only after you were called on it. Don't dig the hole any deeper.

I never said it was my words. I agree with the sentiment and most of the points. I posted it as it showed dozens of examples where liberals made this country (and world) a better place.

The heart of the matter of this thread (hint: it is not my "lifting" ) is that liberals should be thanked for changing things that your party fought to keep from happening. You like to deflect when you are getting foiled here, and this is just another of the many examples. You duck and run from the debate and try and make it about anything else.

Answer the question: can you point out any of the points I presented that is not true?

If you are feeling bold, can you name one thing that your party is doing now to make this a better country? So far I have seen nothing.

As I have said before: put up or shut up.

Is it really necessary to quote the thing every time? Or is this a deliberate effort to kill the thread?

If any thread ever deserved to die, this one would be a prime candidate.

Hear that, dough boy?

You poisoned the thread, as usual.

You are either not bright enough to answer simple questions on your own or just a flat out coward.
