    NPR is a joke. A few weeks ago they had a show on that essentially implied that Limbaugh was done because he wouldn't be able to get advertisers.

    First, NPR have many programs that have nothing to with politics or news. They have car talk, money program, cooking, travel, music, etc. Second, if NPR is a joke, I would not know what to say about programs like Rush's show. If NPR is biased sometimes, Rush is is like off the scale when it come to bias and misleading information.

    Rush admits his bias. George Soros funded NPR tries to deny it.

    They are all biased. Difference is that at least the other sources aren't doing it on the taxpayer's dime.

    They are less biased than any other source, humans are biased by default.

    Really? You're asking me what I would prefer to taking this land back to 1890 or 1590?

    Um, I would prefer to think forward, be pro-evidence, pro-science and learn from the mistakes of the past. For example, incredibly low taxes and regulation led to lots of starving people, child labor, ridiculous working conditions, and eventually to the great depression.

    And that's the good version, versus pre-enlightenment thinking.

    To have more choices than what basically amounts to two Republicans. If our current president was white and had an R next to his name, there'd be airports renamed after him.

    Lots of speculation on your part...just speculation. But that's how the left rolls. You guys are so high on your "intent" that you've become oblivious to the ramifications. You even accept falsehoods if it flatters your "intent".

    are you capable of forming an original thought?

    That's funny. I remember NPR telling me that the controversy wasn't going to have any lasting impact on Rush because his listenership wasn't hurt, so he won't have any shortage of advertisers in the long run.
