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 Dont 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 Dont Tell Me! is NPRs 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 whats real news and whats 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 weekends 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.
Heres a transcript and heres the audio:

Far be it from me to challenge the “I am a Jew I can say this” clause. I wouldn’t go any where near that. To many Muslims, though, it’s not really a joke. Then again, there is very little about Islam that is funny.
Sorry, I was just referring to those eight.
I almost never laughed at Poundstone’s “comedy” even before I knew what a leftist freak she was. Back in the 90’s Rosie O’Donnell had an HBO special that actually WAS funny. maybe because it wasn’t overtly political. She really went after Woody Allen and O.J. I admit I laughed. Now, you couldn’t PAY me to watch either of these two. I guarantee it’s all Palin/Bush “jokes”. And uber-liberal Will Farrell? NOT funny in movies OR real life. And he’s a bad man. He consistently gets the most votes for being an asshole to his fans by Autograph magazine. O’Donnell says she doesn’t sign autographs, either.
