So the fluff-head below implies ("silence any voices"). Since when was there an obligation for the taxpayer to pay for Leftist propaganda? Refusing to pay for something is a lot different from stopping broadcasts that someone HAS paid for.
"Dumb and dumber: that’s not only what all too many of our current politicians and right-wing pundits are, it’s how they want the American public to be.
The right wing in this country is on a concerted campaign to silence any voices that question its goals, tactics and assault on dialogue and civility.
Hence, as part of the House of Representatives’ attack on everything, we have H.R. 1076, the bill to bar all federal funding to National Public Radio (NPR)."

NPR is 95% privately funded anyway. They have had a lot of rich Leftist donors. And I am sure that Mr Obama's Wall St. friends would soon cough up any shortfall in funding.

NPR is a all time waste of money to continue to finance this bastion of leftists propeganda
Apparently, they think we're trying to shut them down because that's what they're actively trying to do to us. (See "Fairness Doctrine", "Projection")
Once again, we see the Left using one of their oldest and most effective tricks. Blame your opponents for doing what you yourself do all the time, that being, stifling the voice of the opposition. Sadly, that this tactic is still effective only highlights the weakness of Republicans and the Right.
The only way to defeat the Left is to use their on tactics against them.
Since when do I the taxpayer have to foot the bill for someone else's "free speech"?

All the time and rightfully so. Government must protect people's rights and that includes the right of free speech.
However, the NPR defunding is not about "free speech," or "censorship." It is the exact opposite. It is government funding a group who presents only one side of issues. In other words, instead of being neutral, the government funds aid in a position and that infringes on the rights of others.
LESSON #10 from the How to be a Leftist handbook:
Yup, the best propaganda is to put on the "victim" mask.
Then when your opponent has a tinge of remorse, Strike at the jugular!
I wonder if this buffoon would feel the same way about the fairness doctrine?
Didn't think so!

Right and Wrong.
The government must protect everyone’s free speech, good and bad. it's doesn't have to fund one side or the other to make it "fair!"
I remember my lessons on the constitution and bill of rights in school. Even my pocket version doesn’t have the word “FAIR” in it!
