Hold the bus a moment... Isn't PBS & NPR both fully funded by the public and different sponsors? I didn't know they received funding from the governement other than grants.

I checked the web site you mentioned and they offer no information on how they came to the conclusion Bush was cutting funding for NPR. They only offer a button to push and sign their petition. In fact, unless there's an error on their site they only offer those or other sign-up buttons.

Oddly enough when I checked the PBS and NPR sites, there no mention of this fund cutting. They have great information on their sponsors yet nothing about the USG. One would think if this were the real deal there would at least be mention of it by the said victims PBS/NPR.

Sorry, but these sites like move on aren't the most accurate and I'm being kind with that assessment. Aw what the heck, I think they rate right up there just below the National Enquirer anmd Star Magazine in the belivability department. Seems they're great at playing on the fact people hate George Bush and they get people to react. In the meantime while we're pushing those little buttons for our petition, we are doing nothing but making money for someone who's feeding us "facr" they fail to even begin to prove.

Believe what you will but I sure wouldn't blindly put my trust in any organization that's serves nothing up other than hype.

If there is even a whisper of either schemes being removed....react

...as the whisper may very well be founded in truth...reseach it...ask questions...find out...don't just sit with the grinch apathy of so many

...you lose your public health schemes...then the private medical system has too many options and a free rein on charges...a compounding problem to the already financially disadvantaged.
