In the House of Representatives the Republican leader ship has some decisions to make. They now have control of the House and must decide who will be committee chairmen. If you thought some form of sanity would prevail, dig this. The ranking republican member on the energy and commerce committee is Fred Upton of Michigan. Common sense would say put Upton as the chairman of that committee. But Rush Limbaugh and the wing nuts feel he is not “conservative enough”. Why? Because Upton supported legislation to phase out the use of incandescent light bulbs. I have written about this issue before. (See april 7 2009 post.)
The incandescent bulb is the horse and buggy in the age of space travel. This shows how crazy the right is. Their test of loyalty is support of a light source that hasn’t changed in a 130 years! These are the people who want to lead us into the future. That future looks pretty dim.
Pardon the bulb pun!
