That should reduce the deficit by 0.06%.

Can't imagine how the budget talks will go this fall/winter. Dems, '---- off, you can't be trusted.' Took a long time to learn that lesson.

We don't need state funded media. They aren't being taken off the air, just losing their taxpayer funding.

I love PBS. I never watch the news. I watch Masterpiece Theater, Masterpiece Mystery, various Ken Burns series, etc.

I love masterpiece theater.

Grew up watching it with my parents.

You're on the wrong side of history.

Soon to be replaced with Honey Boo Boo and Sister Wives.

It's funny Cons are always -------' about the state of American culture, yet they hate the ones who actually preserve it. You're not finding "An American Fourth" or the Lincoln Honors or Ken Burn's "Baseball" on a commercial station.

Liberals whining when someone takes their free money.

Who would have thunk it?
