Defending the Truth

I think he misread the origional post myself. Either that, or he didn't read the link he posted as his own proof.

I think he read it plainly, he just thought by posting an old story about it would prove it is a "rumor". It only proved to me that they have been trying to cut funding for a while now. LOL..

Now if he can post something showing different, he will fix his failing rep.

Considering every year the funding for public school is brought up again? You'd think he'd understand that anything to do with federal funding is put before the financial panel for review every year....Geezes.

What? wait, I thought that if you shot it down for funding once, it never came up again. MY BAD... /sarcasm

ROTFLMAOL!!! Yagmi, I'd spank you but you enjoy it too darn much.

Not me. I am not into all that mess. lol

First of all, you cry-babies really ought to do a little more research into how NPR gets its funding - as well as other information you might find helpful in real life.

For instance, this "urban legend" about cutting off NPR funding started in 1995 - aftere Nina Totenberg - and ultra-liberal NPR loud-mouth - went ape nuts after Newt Gingerich suggested NPRs $200 million per year federal funds be eliminated.

That was 12-years ago, boys and girls. It's too bad that the MORONS at MoveOn.org can't figure that out.

In other news:

Wal-Mart - much maligned by liberals everywhere - funds NPR and awards NPR scholarships.

McDonalds - through the wife of its founder, Ray Kroc - has contributed hundreds of millions to NPR. You remember McDonalds? That hell-hole that under-pays employees and is endangering Americans with it's horrible menus and animal-rights abusing practices?

The MacArthur Foundation is major contributor. You remember John D MacArthur - extremely rich banking/insurance mogul? Wasn't he the epitome of the rich big business fat-cats that liberals LOVE to HATE?

The Horace W Goldsmith Foundation - also funders of Planned Parenthood, the NAACP, the Sierra Club and other leftist organizations.



The list ultra-rich, ultra-liberal NPR sponsors goes on and on and on. But the bottom line is this: You girls can put this urban myth to bed.
