NPR will not change anything, so why post something and get all excited over a bread crumb?

So on your planet, NPR and PBS do not influence voters, so reducing their funding need not be a conservative priority.

As this “de-funding” debate goes on its merry course, I encourage you to make these points that the assets should be properly disposed.

You are, of course, dead right.

And what better way to dispose of the property than sell it to its listeners. Put a price on the assets...and if the employees and the listeners can't meet it...sell the operation to Fox...

But you agree it's gong to be a long, protracted fight? A war that won't be won by Mother's Day?
