The whole liberal and conservative thing is just a political charade. I'm amazed people still fall for it because it's obvious now. Bush and Obama have ran the same agenda, so I guess parties no longer matter. There are two kinds of people. Crooks and those who are honest. Both political parties seem to be sorely lacking in the latter.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar! -
Well, this example illustrates exactly how the KKKochs, FAUX Noize, and hate radio have brainwashed millions of people into believing that it's somehow "socialist", "liberal" or "communist" to give a shit about the only planet you have the option of living on.
Not that CFL bulbs are perfect either, they do contain mercury, and are technically considered "hazardous materials" when being disposed of. But they burn much slower than regular bulbs, and consume less power while giving off the same amount of light.
If people considered the issues rather than the partisan labels, we would have a much better country. And those who call themselves "conservatives" might actually be in favor of conserving.Eat Us And Smile

You should at least try to drop the whole left/right game...
The sooner people do that and realize that the government doesn't have our best intrests at heart, we'll be better off...

But that's not to say there isn't a specific group of people to blame for what's fucked up this country the last 32 years. And they certainly have used the Republican party as their primary vehicle to do their damage, though their infiltration into the Democratic party has sadly increased over the last two decades. Neither Clinton or Obama have acted like a Democratic President should, at least half the time (and I'm being generous with that estimation)
Which brings me back to that series of issue polls which I talked about doing several weeks ago. Backburnered that whole idea for a while, but I'm still working on it.......Eat Us And Smile

It's the right wing. Specifically the corporatist right wing in this case, but a lot of people who don't consider themselves corporatists, and certainly don't benefit economically or otherwise from predatory corporatism, are falling for this bullshit.Eat Us And Smile

Dude...you are way off.
Nobody will dispute that CFL bulbs use less energy...hell I am a bigger fan of LED bulbs.
The idea that Right wingers won't buy them is absolute crap.
You want to play stereotypes?
How about left wingers won't buy them they expect the state to buy them for them.
Just as ridiculous.Comment

Maybe things are different in Canada, because you don't have the degree of propagandizing up there yet (since you wisely kept FAUX out. But I'm sure Sun is working on it.....)
As for left wingers expecting the state to buy them... can't say I know anybody who believes that. But once a year or so, the local corporate energy monopoly (actually not so local anymore, since they were bought by Australians) has a promotion where they will exchange a CFL bulb "free" for an incandescent bulb. They set up shop in the Fred Meyer parking lot and have ridiculous lines at this event all day long.
Even though the gas it took to get there, and the time you wasted standing in line probably cost a lot more than it would to simply walk into Fred Meyer and buy the same light bulb. Or even a better one, since the "giveaway" bulbs seem to be the lower grade CFL bulbs, and not the better quality ones which are closer to natural light.
And yes, obviously the LED bulbs are the best quality of all, but they're still new technology, and therefore more expensive up front, which scares a lot of people off. As for me, I live in an older house with wiring that seems to eat up bulbs (even the CFL kind) faster than normal, so I don't want to buy the LED's if they'll just burn up too fast and defeat the whole purpose of buying them (which is supposed to be that they last literally years without a replacement)Eat Us And Smile
