Bush to cut funding for NPR and PBS
 
Just got a couple of interesting articles forwarded to me about
funding being cut for NPR and PBS. It appears that Bush is supporting
this. PBS says they will no longer be able to support children's
programming like Seasame Street. Any one know any details on this??

If NPR/PBS viewers and listeners want to support it, they can send in
their own money.

No more handouts.

Well, he's cutting funds on a *lot* of things, including Medicare, to
help support "the wrong war in the wrong country for the wrong reason".

Seems like there are a fair amount of old geezers here on this NG. Too
bad about Bert and Ernie, but how do you feel about your Medicare being
cut????

Wrong war? Gee, that's not what your gal Hillary was saying a few years ago.

Now, she sounds more and more like the failed faker of Purple Hearts, John
'Fraud' Kerry.

Are we talking about actual 'cuts' here or merely not raising the amount of any
increase that may have been requested?

As some of you may know, the Liberal/Democrat/Communist's like to portray
certain things as cuts when actually they are increases.

I wouldn't give PBS and NPR the sweat off of my balls.

But you will watch the shows you mentioned. Why not support what you
like, or do you just consider that to be someone else's problem?

Just curious.
