well it looks like the house voted not to delay the switch to digital
TV. The idea of leaving it up to stations if they wanted to do it or
not until June was looney tunes stuff. The date has been set in stone
for years now, just switch and get over it.
I just heard something on the radio about a possible do-over vote in the
House?


At 2:45 EST the House vote 258 to 168 to delay the conversion. It
required a 2/3rds majority under the conditions of that vote. If the
Dems bring it up for a floor vote a simple majority would do the
job. Any way the Senate voted unanimously in favor of it so there
has to be a joint conference if there is not a floor vote.


It's Obama's first legislative defeat!

Keep those defeats coming!



Well, he was better than the alternative...

that said, tightening CAFE instead of raising fuel taxes and delaying
DTV don't seem to be particularly intelligent decisions.


What a shocking surprise!

Expect more dumb decisions, you won't be disappointed.
