Dimwits Announce New "Lighting Standards"

The new Democrat strategy is to keep you in the dark and cold... literally... while the President sets his thermostat on very-very warm in the winter and very-very cool in the summer and jets around the globe in Air Force One wasting taxpayer money on dates with his wife.

WASHINGTON -- Aiming to keep the focus on climate change legislation, President Barack Obama put a plug in for administration efforts to make lamps and lighting equipment use less energy.

"I know light bulbs may not seem sexy, but this simple action holds enormous promise because 7 percent of all the energy consumed in America is used to light our homes and businesses," the president said, standing alongside Energy Secretary Steven Chu at the White House.

So while we are sitting in the dark saving money while not having enough light to read by and not being able to drive our car and not being able to run our air conditioners or heaters.... it is comforting to know that at least our fearless leader is comfortable and cozy.

Had enough yet?
