Okay, all you environmental zealots too damned busy to help me beat Pelosi senseless....
What become of the lighting fixtures and bulbs that were taken down? I'm thinking landfill. I thought you Greenies were all about "Reduce, reuse, recycle"?
What did it cost (in environmental units...carbon credits, for example) to manufacture and transport the new lighting fixtures and bulbs to the Capitol?
How come LED undercabinet lighting on HGTV for kitchen remodels costs about $200, fixture and bulbs included, while a Capitol LED light fixture cannot be had for less than $140,000?

In fact, you can illuminate an entire basement with LED lights for about $200 per light and that includes a choice between pot lights and decorative fixtures.

How are LED light fixtures/bulbs "cutting edge" if they have been on the market for over a year, and that's only if you start the clock running after price floors were broken?

Face it. Pelosi was not "greening" the Capitol -- she was decorating it.
Bitch.
You do realize that your talking about the cafeteria of the capitol building, not your basement?
Uh, it's a bit bigger and feeds all of congress and then some.
I mean we are talking about the primary seat of power of the most powerful govenment of the most powerful nation that has ever existed.
Not your bathroom.
