Those evil republicans, if only democrats were in power for the last 3 years they would punish those greedy rich and powerful corporations!!!!

It cracks me up the way the point and your head consistently maintain a wide berth.

[merig00]

You do know there is another party in Congress except republicans?

[xforge]

If only there were ANY people in Congress whose head wasn't planted about one mile up their own ass. Is what I think you mean.

And I am unsurprised....

There's a reason I keep calling the Republicans who just got elected Corporate prostitutes.

[cassandraleo]

Hey now, that's degrading to actual prostitutes.

[cassandraleo]

oh I somehow failed to notice the "corporate." That's better.

[carmy_w]

Yes, I was just trying to keep it clean, using prostitute rather than whore. But that's what I think of them, and you have a point; it does an injustice to prostitutes!
By the way, I laughed so hard at your first comment that I scared my dog!

NPR has now devolved into a totalitarian outfit functioning as an arm of the far left

Yo, Bill. "Publicly funded." If **people** didn't like what's on **public** broadcasting, **it wouldn't exist.** How do you NOT GET THAT?

I have this image of Garrison Keillor and Ira Glass leading a revolution, and somehow I want this conveyed in art, and I want this on a T-shirt.

NPR acknowledged only 2% of their funding comes from the government. The rest is donations. It's not like defunding NPR is going to make much difference but if they lose in private donations, they'll know why.
