Republicans didn’t win anything here.

Republicans were the source of this stupidity. As CrippleCreek points out for those in the know, Fred Upton, R-MI, was the sponsor of the legislation that banned 100W incandescent light bulbs from sale in the US.

Upton, moron that he is, attempted to reverse the ban this year, when it became abundantly clear that voters were furious about this meddling nonsense. He failed.

So now we’re left with the results of a law that people hold in contempt.

This is why the Republicans should be run out of DC at bayonet point... directly following the Democrats.

The poster child for why "Any republican is better than any democrat" is a bull puckey mantra spouted by morons who don't think for themselves.
