npr insults Tea Party citizens on our dime
npr ^ | 1/4/10 | npr

Posted on 01/04/2010 11:35:35 AM PST by Atomic Vomit

Have a look at this piece of cartoon "humour" appearing today at npr's site.

A disgraceful taxpayer-funded attack on patriotic Americans engaged in their civil right to speak freely.

The liberal parasites at npr mock us. Register in comment and join the avalanche of commenters who call npr what it is- ugly and rotten.

Privatize npr in 2011!


TOPICS: Culture/Society; Government; News/Current Events
KEYWORDS: defundnpr; liberaltalkradio; npr; slur; teaparty
99% of the comments are anti-npr. They deserve many more.

Register and let 'em have it, Freepers!

That would be a pipe dream as NPR continued to receive increased funding from 1995 to 2007 when the Republicans controlled the House and Senate.

They just lost a LOT of donations from middle America with that nasty insult.

And they are the most generous of all Americans, according to all polls.

Now you’ve gone and done it. Those were the Bush years (partially). Don’t you know Bush didn’t do anything wrong. What are you a DU plant? Go on over to DU where you belong, you jerk. /s

We had the Legislative and Executive branches of government in our hands for the first time in my lifetime, or at the very least decades. And then we did diddly squat with the opportunity.

Welcome to reality Conservatives.

Nice use of the term “tea bag”. About as enlightened as using the N word. Great job NPR.

It won't matter. The Corp. for Public Broadcasting has roots deep into the DC establishment. They will never be defunded, privatized or shut down. If bureaucrats know anything, they know how to save their jobs.

We need to focus on what WE have to do, and not what gnats like npr and others are belching.

They're all about justifying their grants...that's all; follow the money.

As posted...

I found it somewhat amusing, this admonition about rules:


Comments

Please note that all comments must adhere to the NPR.org discussion rules and terms of use. See also the Community FAQ.


Let me see if I’ve got this straight.

If I want to make comments here, I have to play by the rules.

If however, you get hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to fund your enterprise, you don’t have to play by the rules.

You are not non-partisan. You are a propaganda wing of the Leftist movement in the United States.

You have violated the rules you are supposed to operate under, so that you qualify for government funding.

It’s time for you to go.
