An early version at Huffington Post, here:
Digital TV Transition Delay: Obama Asks Congress For More Time----
'Delay it' until it dies. Shades of killing the SST boondoggle in the '70s (... '80s ... '90s). And rehearsal for ending Ronnie Raygun's Star Wars boondoggle.
Obama says to wait until there is some spare money in the budget (to buy everyone a converter box). Yeah, like that's going to happen ....
Just forget about it. Get over it. NO digital TV 'conversion.' Ever.
We've got bigger, important, clear-and-present-danger (Bush) issues to legislate about. NO BAILOUT for the TV mind-bending 'industry.'
