Obama and the demos just want to make a little cash off this maybe put a new tax on tvs and cellphones to pay for the poor to get new hdtvs. Like al gores cell phone tax to give the poor Hdtvs. Don't get me wrong McCain thought the whole digital thing had something to do with those new clocks with numbers and no hands.

Are you stupid? This has nothing to do with Obama...this transition has been in the making for years, so the benefit Obama would make off this being delayed or even if it happened would be slim to NONE!

Ok Tuxedo- I guess you dont read the news much. Here I will attempt to EDUCATE YOU with some news links on JUST HOW HUSSEIN OBAMAS TEAM IS PUSHING TO STOP THE DIGITAL TV SWITCH.
FROM AP: "Obama team urges delay in digital TV transition". APS headline not mine.

AL GORES PHONE TAX 1996:
For decades, Congress mandated that telecommunications companies ensure universal telephone service to the poor and to high-cost rural areas. In 1996, Congress passed the Telecommunications Act, which included a provision championed by Al Gore to expand the definition of "universal service" to include high-tech services, and endow the Federal Communications Commissi...

TO IMIKE imo you and people like you who cannot debate the man's policies without trying to stigmatize it by putting Hussien in BOLD is just silly. That is one of the main reasons McCain lost the election because he was less about substance and more about silliness. Also, if you read that article in depth you will see that the main reason they want to do this is because the feds cannot fund the voucher program. Politics aside, I think that if the feds will let business past costs on to consumers for new mandates then the feds should also help consumers out when the mandate something that directly affects the consumer. Again, they should NOT stop the transition just find the money for the vouchers. If they can fund silly research about g...

I am little confused as to how Obama and the demos can make cash off of this 😳

I wanted to take what you seriously but when you try the same campaign bs to try to link him to Saddam Hussien in Iraq because you cannot intelligently debate the shortcomings of his policies it shows ignorance. You can also blame this on the previous administration if you want to nit-pick because they have been the ones slow to inform the entire public and get the vouchers into the hands of those who need them. Your comment is just plain silly 🙄

And BTW. If you're going to try and demean somebody by using their middle name, you might want to spell it correctly. It makes you sound even more ignorant than you already are.

Ha the spelling and grammer troll has checked in.
Come on man. I didnt name the man that is his name any thought you have in your head about a name his mom gave him well thats your issue.
See my other posts for other names he uses.
As for bigot how do you know what my ethnic background or middle name is? Who is the bigot now.
He is OBAMA going to try and tax this. Delaying the digital transition IS NOT CHANGE and slows business and technology.
