100 Watt Light Bulbs Soon To Be Illegal

OK, now this is getting personal. Everyone of my familiars knows that I detest dim light especially dim overhead light and now I learned today that 100 watt light bulbs are going to be banned!

I told ya liberal democrats are sinners and love darkness -- those Gorebulbs positively suck! They are too dim!!!! They are expensive and they don't last as long as they are supposed to. God forbid you should break one then you have hazardous materials on your hands -- those things contain mercury! Well actually I have to appropriately attack George Bush for this one because he sign this stupid bill trying to appease Pelosi and Reid. This is ridiculous. These stupid libtards and their environmental crap are honestly going to cause me to go postal. I can't imagine life without 100 watt light bulbs!

Do you righties have a connection with reality at all?; April 2, 2009 at 10:56 AM
Conservative Black Woman said...: UTS~Tucked into the legislation is a provision that mandates the phase-out of the 125-year-old incandescent bulb in the next four to 12 years in favor of a new generation of trendy, supposedly energy-efficient Gorebulbs.

I embedded that article because it mentions the legislation....good grief.

Do some research before you beat me up!!! The bulbs we have grown up with our whole lives are soon to be banned.; April 2, 2009 at 11:13 AM
JudyBright said...: The article didn't say it specifically, but the bill referenced does ban all incandescent light bulbs, I think by 2012.; April 2, 2009 at 11:13 AM

Well, CBW is right and UTS is....well, you know.

The article referenced states, "The new law increases the fuel-efficiency standards for passenger vehicles...requires fuel producers to use at least 36 billion gallons of ethanol and other biofuels by 2022...And it includes new rules and incentives to encourage greater efficiency in light bulbs and buildings."

There were numerous articles published earlier on the banning of the flourescent light bulb by 2012; "A Californian politician is aiming to bring in a law banning the sale of traditional light bulbs in the state.

"California Assemblyman Lloyd Levine wants incandescent light bulbs banned by 2012, in favour of energy-saving fluorescent lights."

G W Bush DID indeed sign onto that daffy legislation.

CBW is also right that the new (Gore bulbs) contain high levels of mercury, which IS a registered hazardous material, making disposal a major issue.

AND they're not as efficient or cost-effective as initially thought.

But so long as the Gores are happy, so is UTS, right!?; April 2, 2009 at 1:59 PM

What serendipity!

What a shocker huh.; April 2, 2009 at 2:01 PM
uptownsteve said...: I'm still looking for where it's stated that 100 watt light bulbs will be banned.

Any links or direct quotes would be nice.

A California assemblyman's statement doesn't not equate with Congressional legislation.

Duh.

Doncha just luv righties and their misinformation?

Bless their pointed little heads.; April 2, 2009 at 2:50 PM

BWahhhaahahah, in spite of your utter rudeness you crack me up.

ummm, they have already been banned in Europe...it's happening UTS.

Here's a link but I'm sure it will not convince you but hey I really hope you are right because seriously I need the 100w bulb.

Conservative Black Woman said...: Well do us both a favor and stop reading. But if you do a bit of research Sir or Madam you will find that I am absolutely on point with this post.; June 16, 2009 at 7:54 PM
Anonymous said...: If you live in the northern cold climate then "energy saving" CFL fluorescent light bulb do NO GOOD AT ALL. In the north, energy given off by REGULAR 100W and other size bulbs actually keeps your heater or central heat from turning on sooner. Hazardous waste - this is what LIBERALISM has to offer.; November 20, 2009 at 6:19 PM
MorganF said...: Yes, it is a sad day for the world now that the government is making it illegal to use the most ordinary light - the same light that led to the creation of modernity!!!

I'm thinking of trying to organize people to help bring back the lightbulb, I'd love to talk to you about it -- I want to stop the government from doing this but I don't know where to start...!; May 14, 2011 at 2:00 AM

About

Don't let the title of this blog deceive you. Yes, I'm a Conservative Black Woman -- Not to be confused with Republican Black Woman. At this point I am in fact a Political Atheist. I believe with every fiber of my being that America is no longer a Constitutional Republic but rather a Corporate Fascist Oligarchy. Our Presidents are just the puppets, tools, spokespersons for the Powers that Be...Council of Foreign Relations and various other NGO's who are beholden to the International Banking Cabal. No, I'm not a Conspiracy Theorist -- I am a Conspiracy Researcher and I'd advise you to do the same. Who said "I would not have you ignorant?" Yes, that's my "handler" for all of those who think I have one. Over the course of writing this blog. My paradigm has shifted ENTIRELY. Yes, the paragraph below still applies but the Left\Right, Democrat\Republican head fake no longer applies to me. I WOKE UP!!!!

"I am fed up with what has happening within the black community. Too many of our families are broken, too many of us are morally degenerate and too many of us are willing to blame all of our pathology on slavery, George Bush, the Republican party or anything but our failures as Parents, Husbands, Wives and Christians."

My Favorite Quotations.....

Truth is scarcely found. But integrity and truth are hardly found within the Black population as a whole at least not where it involves black people. Most blacks have pledged allegiance to their blackness, not truth, not to America, not even to God as many profess. Integrity and truth has to go out the window if it somehow poses a threat to the "positive" image of blackness. ~Anonymous

Regarding Obama's hit on Gadhafi's family: "He's spineless and shameless, except when his masters unleash him on people of color. Then he becomes a pit bull--a real life Sambo/Quimbo doing the dirty work of Simon Legree. TPTB knew exactly what they were doing when they "selected" Obama to manage their psychopathocracy." ~ Makheru Bradley

"Whenever I hear cats start talking that "community" shit I know they are not serious. No one is accountable in conversations about "da community". That "we as a people"... Plantation Negro segmentation nonsense is Kool-Aid left over from the 70's. It perpetuates the illusion that there is even such a thing as a "black community". There aint no "community" and hasn't been in 40 years. Most Negros don't even know their neighbors."The only effective group is FAMILY. Families are the cells of a society. Destruction of the cell is cancer. An effective institution, expectation and habit of marriage is the antidote." ~Denmark Vesey(A Bloggin' Beast!!!!)

The irony of having an economic system that you hate be the source of your entitlement that is in excess of your productive capacity. -- Constructive Feedback (Blogger Extraordinaire)

Most people can't think, most of the remainder won't think, the small fraction who do think mostly can't do it very well. The extremely tiny fraction who think regularly, accurately, creatively, and without self-delusion – in the long run, these are the only people who count. -Robert A. Heinlein

Illumination of the above Frederick Douglass quote by blogger extraordinaire Constructive Feedback

With all due respect to this great I am not sure that he could have imagined the day where:

"Non-justice" is delivered by the hands of favorable officials with racial diversity that realize "Black on Black violence" is not seen as "violent" as other modalities
Where allowing "ignorance to prevail" is a favorable strategy for the retention of power by those who position themselves as saviors
Where "conspiracy theories" are effective tools to allow people to remain unified against an external threat - even when it has moved away and they are all by themselves - otherwise having to manage the human resources before them toward a more conscious end.

In this environment - Robbery, the oppression of intimidation, and degradation put in the form of a music genre lead to an inevitable condition of insecurity for persons and property.
