    NPR is nowhere near 'as far left as you can get'. It's not even as far left as Pacifica Radio which last night ran an interview with someone who claimed to have proof (never demonstrated) that Bush, the Mafia and the drug cartels were secretly engineering the drug trade through Guatemala. It makes an entertaining story but it doesn't hold up. Cake for the masses mostly.
