Just had an eye examination and my eye doc tells me the bulbs that the dems have now decided we have to use, are BAD FOR YOUR EYES. We need to work to get this law changed before we all go blind or have to wear coke bottles glasses. Let it to the democratzi's to ruin everything they attempt to regulate. Wonder how long it will take them to destroy the best healthcare system in the world???????

the other part of the question is: How many bureaucrats will it take to clean up a condemned house because a broken CFL has spilled mercury throughout, and maybe made the family sick? Another question: How much money will it cost the taxpayer and the homeowner?

Can you spell: black market for incandescent light bulbs?

Start keeping a list folks, of all the things that have to be reversed once the Dems are out of office. That, of course, is if there is a US after BO is out of office!
