NPR

I SWEAR I heard an announcer in the LA area, during a station ID, call it National Political Radio.

It went over my head, because ... well, sure.

Then it sank in.

We can only hope.

“Elimination of federal funding would result in fewer programs, less journalism…and eventually the loss of public radio stations.”

Summary: Without public funding we would be sh!t-out-of-luck and panhandling on street corners.

Did I read that right? The Soviet Union ‘invested’ the equivalent of TEN Marshall plans into Cuba? For a nation of 6.4 million people? And they are still dirt poor? A better indictment of ‘economic stimulus’ you will not find.

They don’t shill for socialism, they are socialists. Communists. Its like the mainstream press isn’t biased toward the Democrats, they are Democrats. Not bias, its what they are.

After all, “Federal funding is essential to public radio's service to the American public,” explains NPR’s own website. “Elimination of federal funding would result in fewer programs, less journalism…"

The Salon hack ACKNOWLEDGES that 100 million were killed but claims that it wasn’t because of a deliberate purge “some were commies too!”

What a fucking dumbass. No really. NO REALLY.

NPR should go classical 24/7 and be done with the foolery.

I KNOW I sound like a broken record, but there IS something you can do. Adjust your withholdings on your paycheck. Do a little math, see how much you owe in a typical year, and give them that AND NO MORE! Yes, you won’t get a ‘refund’ but that is YOUR confiscated money to begin with! How can you call yourself a CONSERVE-ative and not be FISCALLY Conservative?

If every working citizen would DO THIS, we’d start starving the beast that is Mother Government.

Also, consume less! Be aware of ALL the ‘hidden’ taxes you pay in a typical day and DO something about it, as in quit buying stuff!

That is all. :)

NPR doesn’t “service to the American public”, - they ‘service liberal elites.

Think of the outrage if an ‘all conservative nation-wide radio network’ ONLY serviced Tea Party members... on the federal dime. NPR doesn’t even service all democrats... we need to pull funding...
