Voting to defund NPR has the exact same effect as voting to repeal the stain's new healthcare law.

None.

Wrong, simple civics teaches you that the House controls the purse strings.

No money = no money.

And when they get around to writing the 2012 budget, then you will have a point. I was wrong on this for a while too. But today's bill was about defunding the 2011 budget. Its already in there. So it has to pass the House, Senate and be signed by Obama to actually be defunded for 2011.
