Daylight savings Time Vs Dubbya - Just tell me the damn time

This has been a thorn in my side since its' inception. Back a few years ago, wanting some sort of legacy, George W. Bush decided in his inifinate stupidity that changing the length of daylight savings time would be a good thing for the environment. I guess this was better than angering his gas guzzling chronies back in the Lonestar state by making some real environment helping changes.

So what does this mean for you, the person searching for various time related keywords like daylight savings time, time change 2008, daylight savings time 2008 usa, fall back 2008, daylight savings time change, daylight savings time, daylight savings, when is daylight savings time, what time is it, time, time change fall, time change 2008, daylight savings time 2008, time change, daylight saving time, daylight savings time, daylight saving time, standard time, world time clock, time and various other related search terms....

Basically it means, if your cellphone moved the time up by one hour, you have an extra hour to sleep. no hold on Fall is fall back so that would mean what was 8AM is now 7Am but because of George Bush it is really 8AM for another 2 weeks because Bush is a fvcking idiot. My head hurts and I just want to know "WHAT TIME IS IT?"

In honour of Dubbya, and as a public service to the masses, let the Pigs tell you the real time.

PACIFIC STANDARD TIME (PST)


EASTERN STANDARD TIME (EST)


MOUNTAIN STANDARD TIME (MST)




The bill amends the Uniform Time Act of 1966 by changing the start and end dates of daylight saving time, beginning in 2007. Clocks were set ahead one hour on the second Sunday of March (March 11, 2007) instead of on the first Sunday of April (April 1, 2007). Clocks were set back one hour on the first Sunday in November (November 4, 2007), rather than on the last Sunday of October (October 28, 2007).
