WASHINGTON — With the clock ticking toward the Feb. 17 deadline for TV broadcasters to shut off their analog signals and go entirely digital, analysts say more than 6.5 million households are not ready.

Now Congress appears poised to postpone the transition to June — but a delay could bring its own problems.

To avoid blacking out TV sets in unprepared homes next month, the Obama administration is seeking the delay to give the government more time to fix a subsidy program that has run out of money for coupons that help consumers pay for digital converter boxes for older TVs.

We've been preparing for this transition for 3 years. Anybody who still hasn't gotten their government subsidized converter box is either plain stupid, plain lazy or both. Here's the thing, Obama has been told that the miserable people who still watch TV with rabbit ears, are the same people who're receiving government checks every month...in other words, democrat voters. You watch, the Obama administration and it's wretched, democrat counterparts in Congress will rationalize using stimulus money to fund another round of converter box give-aways to shiftless degenerates in muddy trailors, who refuse to pay for basic cable, or even get off their asses and go get a free box(it's free to them, but you and I paid for it).

There is nothing, nothing I tell you, that loathsome democrats and craven republicans won't attempt to spend money on in the name of the stimulus package.
