Nice picture! One who worked hard to command the respect that comes with high office, and the other one, who isn't a Muppet.

Ofcourse it figures! Public radio and NPR (National Propaganda Radio) are just more forms of the same controlled and contrived co-opted and compromised corporate brainwashing and social engineering platforms designed to keep the mass public in the dark! Alternative news sources are far more enlightening, accurate, and honest about the world, health, and our so-called leaders! There's a whole new world of information out there waiting for you to find it!

Since the average listener to NPR or viewer of PBS is significantly better off than the average american, public funding of these enterprises amounts to a subsidy for the wealthy, and should be cut-off immediately. But the bigger issue is pay in non-profits (which are effectively tax-payer subsidized) - I see no reason why the government shouldn't limit compensation and benefits for employees of these organizations if they want to organize as not-for-profit rather than regular corporations.

Step 1 is defunding all Public Broadcasting, period! Step 2 is disallow all (including Religious) non-profits and non-partisan orgs until they go through a full audit and justification.

Right! Let's get rid of thoughtful journalism that covers the world with insight and analysis and all listen to news/talk radio with no news and nothing but syndicated "talk" from Rush and the folks from Fox -- home of those who can't think. Why is the NPR audience made up of professionals and managers and all of them highly educated -- because nothing else on the radio and little else on television provides thoughtful coverage of what is going on in their country and the world. They know what is important and they seek it ought and many of them pay hundreds if not thousands of their own dollars to keep it on the air for all of us. Oh, your portion -- from your taxes -- can be measured in pocket change.
