Light bulbs weren’t broken until environmentalists decided to fix them. Toilets weren’t broken until environmentalists decided to fix them….
San Francisco’s big push for low-flow toilets has turned into a multimillion-dollar plumbing stink.
Skimping on toilet water has resulted in more sludge backing up inside the sewer pipes, said Tyrone Jue, spokesman for the city Public Utilities Commission. That has created a rotten-egg stench near AT&T Park and elsewhere, especially during the dry summer months.
As recently illustrated in the Wisconsin state house, stench usually follows liberals by either their presence or their intentions.
Yeah, and guess who has to do the clean-up?

Public union clean up crew!
I know, I know …….. The public union members get to do the cleanup.
So much for the vaunted Liberal Intelligence. All of that water serves a purpose – to flush the $hi# away. Come to think of it, a tsunami in SF would have the same effect.
Of course, the truth is that we end up using at least as much water as before since we have to flush two or more times, often.
The whole light bulb thing is a diatribe I could go on for an hour about. But I’ll refrain, we all seem to be of the same mind here on that subject.
It seems that the liberal agenda is for human kind to be fully debased back to our primal animal status, just one more link in the food chain: no lights at night, no water for cleanliness, no vehicles or animal “exploitation” for transport, no meat for food. Actually, it seems that the liberal agenda is just to simply eliminate human-kind from the face of the planet, that somehow that would be better for the “mother”.
What they neglect to observe is that the “mother” (in their strange pantheon) is where we were created (evolved, whatever). We are imbued with the intelligence to change our environment and our living situations. So based on a purely evolutionary perspective, why shouldn’t we just do what the heck we want; it’s survival of the fittest isn’t it? As Richard Dawkins is so quick to point out, “we are just dancing to our DNA.” Well if that’s the case: damn the spotted owl, polar bear, minnows, african-gay-baby-whales, and DRILL, BABY, DRILL!
Freakin’ hypocrites.
Fool me once; shame on you. Fool me twice; shame on me. But, shame is not a progressive emote. When will they ever learn? Never; progressive greenie warmers can only emote. To learn from experience requires skills above their level.
An early example from the 60′s was Mayor John Lindsay’s comment to me that he wanted idea people. Kool-aide and a rendezvous with space craft was an idea. Hippie communes were an idea. Obama’s Hope and Change was an idea. Edison had a thousand ideas on light bulbs, but used reality to find the only idea that worked. But rewarding hard work and diligence conflicts with emoting about Social and Economic Justice
Technical: Using more water per flush causes a larger volume and weight to have the momentum and force to push farther against the friction from contact with the pipe. Flushing twice just allows the second flush to pass over the first flush’s residue. An example is trying to push a stuck object, where a strong push’s effect is effective and two or three or more weaker pushes not.
This was experimentally determined for flush toilets in the 19th Century. There were even flush toilets in the ruins at Knossos three thousand years ago, where progressives were probably killed by the minotaur..
@Tallyman – d’ya suppose they overran the Parthenon and played their drums and danced like idiots till they got their way? ‘Course, I expect that would have been brought to a swift conclusion….. SPARTA!!!
P.S. I know it’s not the right location and people, I just wanted to yell Sparta.
My Toilets seem to flush two different amounts. If you let the handle go right away, it only uses about half the tank. If you hold it until the tank is empty, well, obviously it uses the whole tank.
we’ve been over there many times, so I’m not surprised. I’ll have to remember that it stinks around AT&T park when I go to a giants game, but then again something ALWAYS smells funky around wharf, one way or another…
Can we safely conclude that the shit of far left libs stinks or do we need a government funded study to prove it? Maybe its due, in part, to the overpriced and overhyped natural and organic diets of so many of the enlightened residents. There is also the need to consider the possible effect of recycled paper used to wipe asses. Wow, this does merit a big study!
