republicans are keeping up their track
record of doing absolutely nothing about
job creation what they were ostensibly
elected to do but they're doubling down
on other really important problem facing
the country
national public radio
the house rules committee called and
quote emergency meeting this afternoon
to consider a bill that would cut
government funding for n_p_r_ the house
will debate a bill tomorrow
and a really sick thing is that the
fraud james osha's committed with yet
another one of his doctored videos his
so-called expose of npr created the
momentum for this bill
as is working in these cases
npr didn't fight back
instead they fire there topeople and was
left open glenn beck's website of all
places to point out just how our context
ope these videos were really work
one of the reasons why n_p_r_'s eg
arrive schiller lost his job was because
he was caught on tape ascribing tea
party members as quote zeal phobic
seriously races people but it turns out
which shows said that he was not giving
his own opinion the tea party he was
actually recounting views expressed film
by two republicans article about uncut
version and look at how it starts
cast
solitary a as a christmas card
sandwiched between the parties
don't tell me
congressman ever believed they could
never in my life center of the
handy
here
yes
hit
bcc seven
here
guarding the white
america
thanks very much
serious
no keep never explain it sure was
talking about republicans you know
saying that
he left impression that was all shot his
opinion
that because that is ok is not
journalists is a political hatchet man
he's part of a republican machine but in
the end produced bills to kill off what
they view as a political enemies
there are at least seven instances of
questionable aditi
including on the important issue for me
but let me show you one more o'keefe
edit the video to show schiller happy
about the about the fake organization
seeking the spread sharia law cross the
world
extension to the way that was added
meac website it said the organization
sought to prevent the spread of the
acceptance of sharia across the world
mentally sick
night seems like they're trying to make
sure your loyal
take a look at uncorrected
he
kessler's
harriet also monitor
tyson
bc then had nothing to do is show what
they were joking around about the
resignation
look you gotta understand this needs a
free country all keep in the wall the
casey wants
for the rest of the media should not
take it seriously
and certainly
congress should not take it seriously
when they go to defund n_p_r_ base on
this clownish nis
bounds of reason
now my next guest has tried to reason
with his colleagues in congress
imploring them not to be fun n_p_r_
especially the rationale is a
deceptively edited video put together by
a guy who specializes in those political
here jobs congressman or a blowing our
of organ joins me now
congressman what's the current status
now
lightly is this the passed the house
well based on what we saw previously
with the continuing resolution
it's very likely
rates it's doubtful that the republican
leadership would've rush this through
the floor violating their own rules for
seventy two hours notice without
emergency meeting of the rules committee
unless they were fairly confident that
it would in fact pass
doesn't do you think this former
coordinated campaign
he's a great you know they know that
okie was going to do these videos
o'keefe knows with their agenda is
and then they get repeated on place like
partners but he doesn't have been backs
website here the blaze
which defunct u_n_ and and let me tell
you something it's amazing that is so
bad that even types websites like
no that's that's felt totally edited but
do you think is part of the whole
machinery
of going after places like npr
road no question about it
people are
they have an agenda it's aggressive and
in fact the proposal dot we're voting on
tomorrow
goes beyond just defunding n_p_r_'s
it would be cripple
public broadcasting stations around the
country particularly in rural
or small-town america
and prohibit them from purchasing
content from any source
prairie home companion wait wait don't
tell me or programming from other public
broadcasting stations
uh... it's just really unbelievable
that they would do this to try and shut
the system down
alright n and i want to be clear the
blaze na firefox and so it's on the
carpet base i said earlier
has a real quick last question for you
do you think the senate or the white
house will eventually stop this war is
there any chance that if you're actually
it's
i think there is very likely to be a
strong push back
the overwhelming majority of the
american public support keeping the
funding as it is or even increasing
in fact two-thirds of republicans
support keeping funding or increasing at
i think that they may have bitten off
more than they can chew i certainly hope
the senate and the white house pushes
back the american public deserves it and
i think this is a case where these
people have just reach too far
archives for normal mail thank for your
time tonight we appreciate it
