So....its only been a few months since Obama got voted in and he's not even sworn in yet and already he's pissing me off. Not that I'm surprised; in fact, I find it disappointingly predictable. Don't get my wrong, I'm not from the McCain camp or the Republican camp. Frankly, I think the biggest political challenge we face is to break the stranglehold of the two major parties, but that topic will need to wait for another day.
The first pissing off was last week when I saw that he wanted congress to hold off on the whole switch to HDTV for all TV broadcasters. Never mind the fact that I can't understand how the government became empowered to tell private citizens (the owners of the broadcasting companies) how to transmit; my qualm is with Obama's assertion that we have to provide more money for people who want to watch broadcast TV in HDTV.
Really? How'd we come to this? Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of....TV????
I don't have time to watch TV most of the time because I have to feed my family....and pay the tax burden of providing TV for others?
WOW...how far we have fallen.
And thus socialism marches on in America.
