If you study and work hard to make yourself smart, you can do well. If you don't, you wind up spewing leftist crap on the radio at taxpayer expense.

So true.

I'm surprised they didn't manage to get some sort of homosexual theme in their so-called "report."

Seeing the name in print does not give you the full effect of the accented R-rolling pronunciation of her name, along with the undiluted accent with which she broadcasts. NPR has always had a thing about any Central or South American accent being broadcast undiluted, whereas accents from other geographical locations are anglicized.

Japanes in Hawaii - a territory at the time with no presidential voting rights- joined and formed the 422 Infantry Brigade comprised of mostly Japanese-Americans.

Didn't you mean to say the 442nd Combat Infantry Brigade?

Why is NPR still funded? Air America isn't. You would think that a Republican Congress, Senate and Executive could at least reduce their funding to about two dollars and twelve cents.

They were the most highly decorated in WWII. They served their country well, and of course I mean the U.S. Japan was the former country of their parents, but these Nisei were all Americans. I play golf with 3 of them here in Hilo, HI. Their combined age is 256 years. You can take it from me that they are 100% loyal to our country.

I was born in NYC and my father was born in NYC but his father was born in San Juan and worked as a welder in the Brooklyn Navy Yard in WWII.

My grandfather on my mothers side was in the American army stationed in PR .

My uncles and brothers have served in Vietnam and Iraq and Kuwait.

To HELL with the communists at NPR and to Hell with the DONKOCRAP party.

Gee this brings back memories. My Dad was stationed in Japan 1956-58. I was in the fourth grade and just hearing about Pearl Harbor for the first time. We went on field trips and met with Japanese kids who seemed just the same as us. But it was only when I got to know Nisei folks who were 100% American and who only looked Japanese that I realized what being an American really is.

BTW, wasn't it the 442d Regimental Combat Team that became known as the `Purple Heart Batallion'?

When someone makes a clear and concise statement and then tells me "they regret that I misinerpreted their statement", that only furthers their insult.

Well, Puerto Ricans ARE serving, and serving proudly alongside their fellow American citizens in Iraq and Afghanistan. My niece just got back from her tour in Iraq. 100% American, Puerto Rican and Marine.

Sadly we in the military overseas are subjected to at least 3 hours a day of their news programming on AFN.

I have often thought that tailing journalists and reporting their dirt is a sure way to defeat them.

It is so ironical that without brave and honorable people such as yourself, NPR would be hard pressed to spew the ideology masquerading as news they are known for...

Y'all just ignore their nonsensical blather as much as possible and know there are millions and millions of us who thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your service and sacrifice to our country.

I am, but, one of those...THANK YOU!!!

Oh...and as for Jon Carry, just remember he's so brilliant, he has no clue he stuck his foot in this mouth so far that he still can't understand why his chin is dragging the ground everytime he tries to take a step!

Stay safe and hurry home!!!
