I don't like this one bit.

And I didn't hear about it anywhere but in Michelle Malkin's blog. She reports that the energy bill foisted onto the public by the Democrat congress (and signed by President Bush--sigh) on Tuesday contains "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."

No way.

I HATE those compact flourescent bulbs (CFLs). The light they give off does not compare with the pleasant light of the incandescents. And whatever happened to choice?? I thought these libs claimed to be all about choice? If they self-righteously want others to use CFLs, they can create incentives. But simply taking away the choice of incandescent lights altogether goes way too far.

Some of you won't care at all that this is happening, but I'm going to have to contact my national representatives to complain, and I urge anyone who feels similarly to do likewise. Besides, those CFLs contain mercury. The disposal problem this creates will be enormous. And this, at a time when they fairly recently killed off the last available mercury thermometer at the drugstores.

Since they actually give people the "choice" whether to end a life in the womb, I consider it completely ridiculous that citizens are forbidden the choice of what kind of lighting they wish to have in their homes.

Completely. Insane.
