I think their premise is accurate. LCD TV's with CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lamps) consume more energy than the newer LED LCD TVs. The only difference between the two is the backlighting. Most LCD TVs now use CCFL for backlighting and the LED TVs uses well, LED's for backlighting. This results in an average of about 35%-40% less power usage.

Having said that,. I DON"T think the government has any business dictating which one to use. The free market would have eventually switched to LED LCD TVs on it's own and the CCFL LCD TVs would be obsolete. All which would have probably happened by 2013 anyway. This is a free market society and the government needs to stay out of it.

My sentiment exactly. With this way of thinking, why would someone not open, say an opium store? This is not a hard problem to solve.

Just what is the ultimate end game here?

See what happens when you let an amateur do the work of a pro. Should have called Dr. Tiller four weeks earlier and let his clinic take care of the "problem". He would have done a much cleaner job of evacuating the cranial cavity and no one would have been accused of being insane.

It is about time a POLITICIAN stood up for conservative principles they believe in. Good for you, Palin!
Exercise term limits! Vote 2010 and make some real changes!

Try to stay focused on the issue here.

We are so grateful OBlahblahblah. STFU.
What an idiot and a real threat to our freedoms.
I take that back, we are the idiots for voting these guys in office.

Exercise term limits, VOTE these guys out!. Reps or Dems both have got to go!

Remember 2010, exercise your right to enforce term limits. Both parties need to have new blood every two years to keep them straight. IT IS part of our (the people) checks and balance.

About Ford. I have been in the Automotive supplier business for the better part of 28 years. Ford just a few months ago, sent a letter to all it's suppliers instructing them to begin quoting with Mexican labor by 2011....

The Clinton 3 step plan. Deny, Fudge a little, then throw up your hands in disgust.
1. Throw a fit when first asked about it, deny, deny and deny
2. Later add a little more truth to your story but not enough to disclose anything.
3. Lastly, throw your hands up and state you are tired of being asked about this matter, I have answered all your questions. We need to move on, the public is tired of hearing about it.

She has learned it well.

BTW, if the CIA lied, why is anyone not calling for an investigation. What about it Pelosi? If the CIA lied to Congress it would be breaking the law, right? Call for an investigation, that is if what you are saying is true.
