That is an unbelievable assertion. I have great respect for the Senator from Virginia, but it is unbelievable. I, too, drive down the road, and on my radio, for example, would listen to Rush Limbaugh, very entertaining, very smart. It is a program a lot of people listen to. What he does is, he relentlessly kicks the living daylights out of the opposite party. Is that found on NPR? The implication and the suggestion on the Senate floor and elsewhere that NPR is some sort of leftwing political show is absolute rubbish. I am sorry. It is absolute nonsense. I am so tired of hearing it.
