BS!!

We can only hope this fails.

Absolute waste of taxpayer money for a competely unnecessary delay.

There's absolutely no good reason the taxpayers and broadcasters should be forced to open their wallets to support this ridiculous bill.

Again, a waste of time, money and effort on something that should be dead last on the list of economic priorities.

What do you get when you cross a Politician and a mink lined toilet seat?
A top-of-the-line Sh**

When do they propose taking that vote,
AFTER the shutdown?
That's like buying an airline ticket
after the plane crashes.
What about the pirate transmitters
that will be popping up with analog
broadcasts? They shut one down,
another will pop up somewhere else.
It will be a game of 'Whack-a-mole'
between the FCC, Justice Dept., and
the pirate broadcasters! There won't
be enough prisons to hold 'em all!
At least until DTV infrastructure
has been improved and there is some
standardization with equipment.

Stop this insanity... if they're not ready now they won't be ready in four months. This is absurd. Going to make the television stations pay more for broadcasting both digital and analog signals, and put their efforts to prepare for the transition in two weeks for nothing... this is such a waste. And the kicker is, it'll pass. Ugh.
