Title: Liberal NPR Gets Defunded
Post by: 1-Term-BHO on 03 17, 11, 10:29:58:PM
Taxpayers will no longer have to support NPR and their one-sided Liberal Agenda.  The House voted today to defund it.
 
The House Members came to the realization that NPR has become indistiguishable from Air America.

No, NPR did not get defunded.  Why do you guys always lie so much?

That's okay.  I couldn't believe that a nation of liberty-loving people funded a radio station with coerced money -- but it's no lie.

NPR has not been defunded.  Why do you continue to lie?

All funding Bills originate in the House of Reps.  So, how is NPR going to keep getting our money?
 
I never understood why they got our money in the first place.

One more time, let's stick to the facts and be truthful.  NPR has not been defunded.  (http://www.aesopsretreat.com/forum/Smileys/classic/hattip.gif)


But since you don't seem to know how to find out about how NPR receives its funding:

BO, ddint you read the article you posted?
 
The last line says:
 
"While the House spent several hours of its afternoon debating the legislation, the Democratic-led Senate is unlikely ever to bring up the measure for a vote."


Title: Re: Liberal NPR Gets Defunded
Post by: chuck_curtis on 03 18, 11, 12:36:05:AM
Which begs the question: if they don't bring the spending bill up for a vote in the Senate, how will other things get funded?

Do you need me to Google that for you Chuck?

Defund the darned thing. Put it into a CR and make the Dems shut down the government over it. I’m sure that’ll go over fabulously with the blue-collar Democrats.
 
I understand that it won’t go anywhere in the Senate. But then, Senate funding shouldn’t go anywhere in the House. That would have the effect of stopping the funding, as funding doesn’t occur unless it’s approved.
 
Why not cut it off by refusing to pass funding rather than specifically defunding?
If Democrats want to shut down the government over money to National Public Radio, let them. Let them defend it.
 
All we’re trying to do is trim the fat. Ask them to explain why we should fund NPR when even Obama is calling for heat subsidy decreases.
 
We can’t afford heat for the poor but we can afford NPR?
 
No big changes until Americans get Obama out and take the senate.

Hitler was very feckless which is why he lost the war...  A poor leader who had difficulty making important decisions.  He gave inspiring speeches though... That is a fact.
