   Just like that church venue in New Jersey (?) that wouldn’t do a civil union ceremony. Don’t follow the rule of law set forth, you’ll lose that tax exemption status.

   What law, pray tell, did Schiller, Schiller and Liley break?

   RedDog, just to clarify my angst…as our country gets more and more destroyed by the regressives, and we are not allowed to even try to become properous again by tapping our energy resources, building nuclear plants, etc., and as the people on the left become more and more unhinged, nasty, violent and destructive…I have become a lot less tolerant of anyone with the regressive point of view. I have decided that they are traitors to this country. I can’t abide that. I am not lumping reasonable democrats into that category, who simply disagree on some general things. There will always be that difference and that is a good thing. I am talking about those who are very obviously far left and who agree with the way this country is going right now. They are my enemy, and I can’t stop that from “getting to me”.

   FirstSkirt,

   Oh believe me I’d love to see it if only for the pyrotechnic/entertainment value. The problem ‘is’, the Primary Dealers ( meaning Too Big To Fail Banks ) would have to -eat- all the Defaulted/Soon-to-BE-Defaulted Mortgage Backed Securities.

   Essentially we’d be revisiting Fall ’08 all over again. The verge of financial collapse. That said… we’re not helping our own cause by keeping them in Intensive Care indef. either?

   Just curious, in the Air Guard we’d typically ref. to “First Skirt” as a 1st Sgt. of the Female variety. Wasn’t sure there was any similarity to your screen name and your position. Please advise. Low-life Enlisted pukes wanna’ know!

   Did not say they broke a law. Just wanted to see how consistent people are here. You agree since NPR is funded by the govt, this bias should be grounds for being let go.

   I don’t recall people being so agreeable when the church was threatened with losing it’s tax exempt status for not opening the venues doors to other ceremonies.

   Sometimes when you receive government funds or tax preferrences there are different rules.

   If anybody needs any more proof that liberals dont just hold non-mainstream views; that they are actually active traitors to this Country, well here it is. And the fact that one lousy penny of my tax money would go to fund this scumbag media outlet, is enough to make steam come out of my ears.

    I did not say that, nor did anyone else here. Perhaps it was the voices in your head.

    On the contrary, I object to ANY media outlet being subsidized with taxpayer money. Let them compete on their own merit in the arena of ideas and opinions.

    The fact that their ideas and opinions are repugnant to many might make it a bit more challenging. See Air America.

    I agree. The problem is that Democrats/Progressive are big on the democracy, debate, transparency talk but they show precious little of it. Even the basics like common sense budgeting and econ are thrown out the window in favor of entitlement packages for all Dem loyalists. The money tree is dead at the roots,. The Progressives have bled it dry.

    Buy a copy of the Schiller Video (CD) at $40 and you become a member of PBS. For $100 you receive the Video, membership of PBS along with an autographed copy of Ms. Schiller resignation letter.

    Bereans43 for the win.

    @kentroyals5 – I see where you were going with your comments, and yes, the anger and frustration with these goobers is indeed because they are funded by our tax money. If they were a solely private enterprise, we would not like what they say but would acknowledge their right to say it, however untrue. Of course, we would have the right to confront any lies with truth.

    But it goes deeper than that. It wasn’t just these remarks. It’s compounded by all the actions and statements over the years while they have suckled at the government teat.

    They are lying, hypocritical bastions of the leftie empire who have been parading as unbiased and independent. So you can forgive those of us who gloat just a bit over their well-deserved comeuppance.

    To everyone on here – let’s not jump on Ms. Schiller too hastily. I am sure that her views are something that are best kept between her and her psychiatrist.

    Okay, I’ve turned off the sarc button from that last paragraph. But darn, it was just too easy and too much fun.

    It’s funny how the Left went off on the mockery derision and ridicule wagon when Reagan proposed the the missile defense shield “Stars Wars” they called it. We don’t have the tech, it can’t be done, they said. We have the tech and we did it. We can also supply all our own energy needs with nukes and petroleum but the Left wants us to “go green” immediately when there are no legitimate alternatives except pig sh*t and some wind… Try heating your house and getting to work on that. America cannot afford to indulge the nirvana wet dreams of an irrational Left Wing political religion.

    Obama understands this but he does not care. The useful idiots are merely creating the various and sundry crises he uses to advance Statist control of the society.

    Not only is the interim CEO a major contributor, he is also NPR’s chief legal counsel. Wasn’t there a #2 person in the chain of command? When corporations lose a CEO to scandal, don’t they move someone up from the ranks or assign someone from the board as an interim replacement? Just axin’.

    I’d bet the GOP elites will be pushing for the likes of Romney, Gingrich, or other nationally known political commodities that lean comfortably slightly right of center as their chosen one, but never a political outsider such as Cain. Even if Sarah Palin hadn’t already been introduced on the national scene, she’d be ignored by the GOP, who’d never have seen any potential in her as a rising star and been content with her remaining in Alaska where she’d likely still be a relatively unknown governor.

    Changing leadership changes nothing at NPR. The only logical solution is for congress to defund them and send them to the private sector to see how well they can do in a little place we like to call reality land.

    Why does the government fund companies that directly compete with the private sector anyway?
