NPR: ‘Patriots’ Are Dangerous to Our Government
Publius Forum ^ | 03/18/10 | Warner Todd Huston

Public supported National Public Radio (NPR) posted a report on March 17 during its "All Things Considered" radio show that warns its listeners that "patriot groups" are dangerous and are apparently increasingly prone to attacking government officials and facilities. Oddly the two examples it uses to prove its case have no ties whatsoever to any "patriot groups."

Headlined, "Hostility Against Federal Workers Troubles Officials," NPR blames "patriot groups" on these attacks and worries that "anti-government hate groups" are on the "upsurge." And what does NPR use to prove its case? Nothing but the say so the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center and a misconstruction of two recent attacks on government facilities by disturbed individuals.

NPR ominously begins its report with this...

Same thing with that Tennesse census worker death —they swore up and down that it was a case of murder against “a fed”. That was verrry convenient —the old homo had simply offed himself, and there was some insurance fraud angle to the incident...

IF they considered "all" things, they would have been outraged when Code Pink repeatedly manufactured or otherwise obtained creditentials to get near Republicans in the Bush Administration (and the GOP convention) to handcuff themselves to Republicans or otherwise wreck havoc (like interrupting McCain's acceptance speech).

Nina Totenberg wished AIDS on Jesse Helms "or one of his grandchildren".

Pravda Media at its wurst.

That’s funny, I could have sworn that “being anti-war was TRUE patriotism,” and that “liberals were the TRUE patriots.”

Dissent is no longer patriotic. A chill wind blows and so do Rat politics.

People who are dangerous to the government are people who are sworn to uphold the Constitution but instead use it as toilet paper.

NPR represents HALF of the government. They were against Boosh.

Remember, people, NPR is floated by OUR tax money!

One of the first things the new Republican congress should do, is to CUT OFF all public funding to this propaganda mouthpiece of 0bozo and the Democratic Party. At a time of $1.6 trillion annual budget deficits, the last thing we should be spending our tax dolars on, is a rabid outfit like NPR.

Pass legislation in name only and the details will be filled in after the signatures are obtained. And then you can learn what’s in the bill...

Mother Jones has a similar hit piece this month on the Oath Keepers and what makes them so dangerous to America.
