...and 154 right wing republicans who criticize the methodology of the democrats (who like to reply but can't for being called morons and stupid) for making light bulbs available to every american even when they don't deserve them!:D

Summerlove I respect you for speaking up, I'm sure you're not the only Democrat on the Boards (there must be 2 or 3:D ). It is too bad people can't have a different point of few with out someone saying "your an idiot". Really shows the intelligence of those people, in fact I wonder how many of the people filling the ***boat forums with political threads are that educated in politics and take the time to do nonbiased research on the topics they know so much about. If I ever see you at Havasu I'm coming your way with some cold ones.

As I have said in the past. I Hate to confuse Liberals with the facts........:D :idea2: Then it becomes name calling........:confused:

Don't forget 1 to mention that it's okay to change light bulbs while drinking because changing a light bulb is a drinking type event and light bullb changing fatalities were often NOT caused by people drinking.
Also another 1 to make some kind of homosexual reffernce to changing light bulbs.

Actually Summerlove, you are right. It was included in the last budget in California. Fees on monitors, plastic trash bags, light bulbs, CDs, light bulbs, a virtual cornucopia of consumer goods that might or do impact the "solid waste stream". They were fees because they didn't need a 2/3 majority to enact them. Kind of like the proposed .05 gas fee (tax) that the democrats are proposing now (Tom Torlaksen D, Antioch).
And I was just pulling your leg.........;) :D
