Looking for a sure thing, easy-to-do agenda item you can hold your newly-elected Republican House member too? Tell him/her to completely abolish NPR. Get that horrible politically correct taxpayer-subsidized program off the government tit without delay.

Do you need any more reason than this? Juan Williams, a longtime liberal-leaning contributor to NPR, was just unceremoniously fired from the socialist network for the following comments, made on Fox News Monday night (NY Times, h/t Memeo):

“I mean, look, Bill, I’m not a bigot. You know the kind of books I’ve written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.”

What Williams is saying here essentially, is that most Muslims put their loyalty to their religion and Islamist ideology, over the United States. Not only a reasonable comment, but downright common sense.

Ironically, Rasmussen released a poll, earlier this week showing that Americans by overwhelming majority of 57%, believe that "American has become too politically correct." An astounding 74% believe that government favors political correctness over common sense.(Source: WALB TV)

We're gonna have all these incoming freshman Republican congressman in a couple weeks. If you're assisting in their campaign right now, get a solid commitment.

Don't ask the Congressman-elect to support something off-the-charts like drug legalization, abolishing the IRS or a return to the Gold Standard. We'll get to those items later. But do tell him or her right now, as you pick up those campaign brochures to walk another neighborhood, that you fully expect them to push for immediate elimination of all funding for NPR, PBS, the Ad Council and other government programming.
