Actually, I wouldn't care if they let NPR go, but DON'T end PBS or AMTRAK! I use both of them... AMTRAK is absolutely essential for me to continue my career because it's the only way I can really travel any long distance.
But yeah, Obama was so lazy. I wish he'd taken the offensive posture away from Romney. Here's hoping in the next one that he will.
Obama's not a fighter. As it has been painfully obviously from the last 4 years, he wants to be a compromising supersenator who gets consensus from the Republicans, even though they are determined to not. I bet he wishes he could have a beer summit with Lehrer and Romney where they quietly work out their differences. But of course Romney isn't interested in that.
