NPR says grid lock will hurt business (hint vote Democratic) bias news
NPR claims that they are fair and non biased then the CEO of NPR fires liberal Juan Williams a commentator during the middle of a fund raising campaign for apparently going on Fox. Well Monday on "All Things Considered" they aired a piece about how with unemployment so high the economy will suffer if you have grid lock in Congress.
That is with the President and one or both houses in opposition to each other there will be uncertainty in future rules and regulation and business does not like that and will suffer. This is pure BS and the subtle message is to vote Democrat and keep things the way they are. They are real clever and don't want to alienate non liberal voters by saying vote Democrat but do it in a subtle way thinking we can not see what their real message is.
The real message should be vote against public funding for a left wing voice piece for the Democratic Party. Thank you very much"I could have ended the war in a month. I could have made North Vietnam look like a mud puddle."
"I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them."

No direct federal funding for NPR exists now - so don't worry - your taxes aren't being used to finance commies. http://www.npr.org/about/aboutnpr/pu...ofinances.html

Actually, gridlock is probably the best thing that can happen right now.

A quote from the show would have been nice for an intelligent conversation.

Thanks already tried. I was driving back from Flagler Beach, Florida all day yesterday and heard a short commentary on the subject by a so called business commentator somewhere between 3 and 6 pm. Originally Posted by pageyjim

If you ask me we need a lot less now than more to help private enterprise and this was aired to help push the "undecideds" over the the Democratic side.
I just can't find it on the net but I did hear it and didn't make this up. Thank you very much"I could have ended the war in a month. I could have made North Vietnam look like a mud puddle."

I already I have said that I have tried and I could not find it. I guess I have to repeat myself here. Thank you very much. Originally Posted by pageyjim

For what it is worth I have contacted them requesting info on that short program for where I can get a transcript. If and when they contact me I'll post the info. Thank you very much. Originally Posted by glennac

NPR has always been rediculously liberal, I do like their old radio shows but i wont send them a dime.
You sure are cocky for a starving pilgrim.
