The Republicans Are At It Again!

The Republicans Are At It Again!
This time with a vengeance to take NPR & PBS forever FROM OUR LIVES.

The Republicans are against anything that may have something to do with a social issue. They also can't stand the idea that actual and real facts can expose some of the misinformation they dish out about anything social “Public”. Republicans are so blatant about this they don't even try to conceal their ambition to make everything private and thus out of reach for many lower income people ( a group growing in number so quickly that it’s turning the middle class into an anomaly known anew as the working poor). If we want Democracy to flourish we must first fight against those who wish to dismantle it right here at home. And to achieve this weakening of democracy the Conservatives must first do away with any public broadcasting known for its factual information. In the unprogressive world of the Rightwing, Ignorance Is Bliss. Please sign the petition (below) to stop the Republicans from doing away with NPR and PBS.

The Republicans just released their budget proposal, and it zeroes out funding for both NPR and PBS--the worst proposal in more than a decade. We need to tell Republicans that cutting off funding was unacceptable last time they were in charge, and it's unacceptable now.
I signed a petition to save NPR and PBS. Can you join me at the link below?
