Obama: Delay What We Planned For Years

Apparently, announcing it constantly starting a couple of years ago and having commercials all over the television wasn't enough to let people know that the switch to HDTV was coming, like it or not. No wait, that's not it. We know that's not it because the demand for "free" (YOU pay for it) antenna converters from the gummint is so far above supply that there is a waiting list. So instead of telling people they have no right to television and they can wait or else get their own converter boxes, Obama has a different idea: don't switch when we said we would. Of course, coming from a liar, a desire to have the entire US government lie to its citizens for a few years should be no surprise. Of course, the people they are worried about are probably the same ones using low-power stations that won't have to switch to digital anyhow, but the State must care for her children, n'est-ce pas?
