I wonder how long until you look back with fondness upon old GW Bush. I say, it will be 9 months or less. John Willkie, who only voted for him because of the idiots that he ran against for President in general elections. Hell, he's got a felony drunk-driving conviction and he's still better than the girly-men he ran against. -----Mensaje original----- De: opendtv-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:opendtv-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] En nombre de Richard C.

Unless Obama declares a national emergency, it will take congress 6 months to enact anything. I HATE g w bush with a passion. He is a lying bastard. But the current date (2/17/09) was an act of congress. Blame a weak congress, They even extended the deadline. Clinton was a great man. He got congress to set a deadline. It takes an act of congress to change it. This history is less than 20 years old. And, people can't remember. History forgotten begets history repeated. If you hadn't noticed, I wait with glee for the end of NTSC. It should have died years ago!
