Where's the conservative voice as a counterpoint? There isn't one.
This was just on Diane Rehm today. It was a pretty good show.
Leadership and Future of the GOP
Republican National Committee Chair Michael Steele traded barbs with talk show host Rush Limbaugh. The latest on who is leading the GOP and internal strife within the party.

My other problem with NPR is they slurp at the public trough and without public funding they would be gone tomorrow. If they are so good why aren't they commercially viable?
From Wiki: About 2% of NPR's funding comes from bidding on government grants and programs, chiefly the Corporation for Public Broadcasting; the remainder comes from member station dues, foundation grants, and corporate underwriting.
That was $2.4M in 2005.
Click and Clack do rule.
