If the obscure and has-been comedians who appear on National Public Radio want to mock conservatives and spread left-wing propaganda, they should do it on their own damned dime.
The government-sponsored radio conglomerate broadcasts a weekend show called “Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me!” It leans heavily on laugh tracks to prop up the lame punchlines of the likes of liberal humorist Paula Poundstone and describes its purpose thusly: “Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me! is NPR’s weekly hour-long quiz program. Each week on the radio you can test your knowledge against some of the best and brightest in the news and entertainment world while figuring out what’s real news and what’s made up.”
The “best and brightest” include a Muslim comedian named Maz Jabrani, whom NPR has been promoting as “the face of Middle Eastern humor in America today.”
Judging from his latest bit performed on this weekend’s show, the face of Middle Eastern humor looks a lot like the face of your typical CAIR mouthpiece. Tea Party-bashers Ron Schiller and Vivian Schiller may be gone and the House may have defunded the public radio enterprise, but the conservatives=racist smear narrative is alive and well at NPR.
Here’s a transcript and here’s the audio:

liberal humorist Paula Poundstone?
liberal child endangering drunk driving and possibly molesting humorist Paula Poundstone.........there, fixed it...............
Exactly.
You forgot the quotes. “humorist” is more accurate.
Seriously —> How do we stop bullying among children when they see the adults around them, e.g. NPR and the Democrats, in general, bullying anyone and everyone they disagree with?
“Wait, wiat” is a very poor copy of the MUCH funnier “News Quiz” on the BBC, where, although still liberal, the panelists are actually funny.
There is no depth below which a liberal will not sink.
They still claim to have no bias??
I know they are now calling themselves “Privately Funded”
The morose Poundstone is about as funny as mass starvation.
Why are we paying for NPR?
Why are we going to keep paying for NPR?
:(
Privately funded must mean that the Democrats tax even the lowest ranking members of the army to pay for NPR.
Poundstone became popular because she had the right credentials: she was a single, left/liberal woman which tends to describe practically every female comedian. And she is a lesbian. In fact, Poundstone writes a regular column for The Nation or Mother Jones I forget which one. That’s pretty far left. I’ve watched some of her shows in the eighties or nineties trying to figure out why she was supposed to be funny. One thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of the improvisational-type comedians are just not very funny. Poundstone is one of those.
If they can't even get rid of this miniscule rotten money pit then they have no balls whatsoever.
Until they start getting rid of these kind of programs don't expect them to tackle the big programs.
THEY'RE EFFING WIMPS, PERIOD!
Ask you liberal friends if they contribute to NPR fund drives or are they NPR moochers?.................
Did you hear about the new German microwave oven?
It seats eight mudsucking subhuman Zionist Jewish pigdogs, Allah be praised.
Muslim humor:
“when we bomb, we REALLY BOMB!”
NPR liberal humor? When I first read this Garrison Keilor of “Prairie Home Companion” came to mind. He rips conservatives while promoting leftists every chance he gets.
It seats eight mudsucking subhuman Zionist Jewish pigdogs, Allah be praised.
Well if those pig dogs were Krugman, Alter, Klein, Klein, Emmanuel, geithner, Sunstein, Axelrod, Allah in fact be praised.
I am invoking the “I am a Jew I can say this” clause.
