Not so fast... The senate repassed the delay of it last night and now
the House is going to vote on it AGAIN today under normal house rules.

God, won't this ever end?? This delay won't do a thing.

WASHINGTON (AP) - White House press secretary Robert Gibbs says
President Barack Obama will sign a bill to give consumers more time to
get ready for the switch from analog to digital television broadcasts.
The switch under current law is set for Feb. 17.

The Senate earlier this week passed the bill to delay that until June,
but it failed in the House under a procedure that required a two-
thirds vote for passage.

The Senate passed the bill again Thursday night, and the House plans
to take another run at it next week under regular procedures. That
means a simple majority vote is required.

Gibbs said Obama will sign the bill because he wants more time to
ensure that people don't lose their television signals.


Boy Barry to the rescue!
