- ProLifeWoman, on 01/09/2009, -0/+2oh and one more thing...how about we take all of the millions of $$$'s in tax money they are spending on this circus and buy converter boxes for all Americans. Oh wait...that would mean that Obama really gives a ***** about the people of this country...never mind.
- ProLifeWoman, on 01/09/2009, -0/+2best idea I have heard all day!
- chriskzoo, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1Wouldn't the common sense approach to this be to just broadcast a message over the analog signal for a couple months when the deadline hits that says "You TV no longer supports the current broadcast method. Please contact so-and-so to learn how to obtain a digital converter box for free."
- nordicmoxie, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1I second that!
- markgl, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1This is crap. they've been shouting for over a year about the change. if you aren't ready then you're an idiot!
- Jake81499, on 01/09/2009, -1/+2I only have one comment regarding this. Impeach Obama.
- Jake81499, on 01/10/2009, -0/+1Only one problem, the people with the analog TV's can no longer read. MTV has fried their brains.
- inactive, on 01/09/2009, -1/+2This is first pure form of socialism, and there will be many more.
Who gives a rats behind if 7 million TV"S go dark, I don't. Maybe the ywill get off their blanks and get a job instead of a welfare or SSI check.
Now since we took the energy t oget ready for another goverment bail out, we will be punished severely for doing whatwe were suppose t odo , being self reliant, paying our way.
So if all can't watch BHO, and his propaganda rhetoric, the nthe majority who were obeying the rules will be punished severely for the scabbing of a few.
I refuse to watch BHO, nor will I Listen to him, I get very PO"D - onemimi, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1Great idea
- eagle0468, on 01/09/2009, -0/+0chriskzoo, why should the government provide free converter boxes? TV is not something the government should be providing anyone. It's a luxery not a necessity. Just like the government subsidizes telephones for the poor, this would be a waste of money. What's next, give them a new computer and cable internet access because of a perceived need? Then our country dives deeper and deeper into a socialist driven welfare state that honestly I couldn't stomach.
- Jake81499, on 01/10/2009, -1/+1If you can FIND his parents.
- inactive, on 01/09/2009, -1/+1The democraps want to give free internet to all. WHY?. Big Brother will be watching, listening, mandating, controlling. indoctrinating.
Typical socialist rhetoric, if they can buy the election then the Messiah and his twelve disciples(count them) want to control the next one.also.
The sheep(middle class) are being led to the slaughter but only after they are broke and starving, there will be less resistance, because they can control the non self reliant, who are already indoctrinated into the fine art of scabbing.,
Take onecent of BHO"S hand out , and you have sold your soul, cheaply, which is the full aim of the Obama Regime, And lets not overlook the pitbull, her agenda is more exterminating tha nhis. - Dard001, on 01/09/2009, -0/+0rational thought is banned in this discussion board, thank you very much....come back when you're a little more crazy.
- nordicmoxie, on 01/09/2009, -0/+0He's treating the White House like a corporate office. Oh wait, is that because he is an inexperianced Senator? Hmmm...
- ProLifeWoman, on 01/09/2009, -1/+1This is just another way to keep people crippled and dependant. Sit in your house and watch tv.... the only source of your information will be CNN which is already funded and supported by our government. Just think...people might even have to go to work to afford the switch! And folks might go to the park or their kids' school conferences or to church! Or even worse they might turn on their radios and tune into Sean Hannity, Ruch Limbaugh, Dave Ramsey or Laura Ingram!!! Oh the humanity!!!
The libs are scared ***** that their pathetic followers will not be able to be spoon fed by the media without their tv's. This is scary folks but this country is getting exactly what it voted for...God help us all! - onemimi, on 01/09/2009, -0/+0If he can print more money for his econmic plan why can't he print more coupons?
- nordicmoxie, on 01/09/2009, -1/+0This is so typical..why is this even a priority? There are bigger issues he needs to get to work on NOW! So far, I give him a D grade with a notice to his parents.
