We're sure this is in keeping with NPR's strict journalistic standards.
If I were her and anybody in NPR i’d be afraid too. I hope one of the first thing the new house will do is to defund them!
Gridlock is good.
If she wants to get rid of her fear of the Tea Party, maybe the Tea Partiers could board an airplane with her while dressed in Muslim garb.
She is afraid of free and fair elections. She probably has no problem with dictators who win 92% or 100% of the vote.
Be afraid! Be very afraid! We love it!
She doesn’t seem to care for America very much. Maybe she’d be happier in France.
Sorry Nina,
I am not.
DEFUND NPR!!! Nina a PIG.
“If I were her and anybody in NPR id be afraid too. I hope one of the first thing the new house will do is to defund them!”
If we can’t defund them, perhaps we could make funding conditional on all NPR commentators wearing a clown nose before expressing opinions on the air. Nina and Bill Moyers would, in addition, be required to wear orange clown wigs approved by the FCC.
I guess if NPR takes the money, it can be required to conform to decent public standards. At a minimum, it would make their news commentary more fun than the earnest and tendentious affair it is today.

That would work, too. Or a very visible hammer and sickle on their lapels.
NPR’s Nina Totenberg said Friday that she’s very afraid of the upcoming elections.
Newsweek’s Evan Thomas, her co-panelist on “Inside Washington,” said historians might look upon November 2, 2010 “as kind of a joke...obviously the political systems a mess” (video follows with transcript and commentary):
GORDON PETERSON: Nina, columnist Paul Krugman says if the election goes as expected, his advice is be afraid, be very afraid. Should we take his advice?
NINA TOTENBERG, NPR: I am already afraid, very afraid. I mean, its not like governance has been going great. I think well, I don’t know whether I should be afraid, but there will be gridlock.
PETERSON: Evan, Krugman also says that future historians will probably look back at the 2010 election as a catastrophe for America. You are a historian. You agree with that?
EVAN THOMAS, NEWSWEEK: No, but they might look on it as kind of a joke. There is sort of a circus aspect to it that people, its become comic and a kind of a dark way. You know, Krugman is a professional doomsayer. So, you have to take that with a grain of salt. But obviously the political systems a mess.
Nina Toten-the-Left’s-water-berg has lived off the public teats long enough....
What a great use of tax dollars: the fools Totenberg and Thomas discussing a prediction buy uberfool Krugman.
I understand she was the caddy for Kim Jong Il on his first golf outing. It was 3 hole in one’s wasn’t it.....
Oh yeah, teh same Evan Thomas whose grandfather was the socialist candidate for President? Ok, apple...tree
I can imagine the look on her face come Tuesday night!
What is truly comical is that their blinding white hypocrisy does even embarrass them...are they that arrogant or just incredibly ignorant?
I am sick of seeing these assholes on TV that obviously hate the American people. The election has become “a joke”??? Why? Because it isn’t going the way they want it to.
The media/”ruling class” are a bunch of spoiled children who stomp their feet, whine, and ultimately belittle anyone or anything they don’t like. And it is clear, they do not like “US” ...
Juan: “A little nervous” when a muslim walks onto a plane
Nina: “Very afraid” when a patriot walks into a voting booth.
