Pelosi's "Green" Lights That Will Take 10 Years to Pay for Themselves

Is this really a good use of taxpayer money during a time of fiscal crisis?

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called a Capitol Hill press conference Wednesday to unveil new light fixtures in the House cafeteria. The light fixtures cost $140,000 and will take almost 10 years to pay off in saved energy.

And I'll bet the energy savings will never equal whatever had been promised. Kiss those bucks goodbye.
