Michael Savage Live Thread Wed. Apr. 26, 2006

The history of the Republican party is not one of conservatism. There have always been conservatives in the party, but our national leaders and Presidents have not been, by and large, conservative.

If you put George W. Bush's policies against other Republican Presidents, he will be at the conservative end of the spectrum.

It's a common misconception on this forum that being a Republican is being a Conservative and that all NON-conservative Republicans are RINO's.

It just doesn't line up with the history of the party.

And thanks for your kind words about my son. Mighty proud. :)

Dun-o is dead on (as others). Mikey's is nothing more than 3 hours of pure, untapped rant. That's all. Got tired of it after he got kicked off MSNBC and backpedaled about it. At least Howard Stern stands up for what he says (even if Howie is a total fraud). In the end, Mikey is in it for Mikey only. He only attacks other talk shows because he's not on the inside being lionized and his ring kissed at every moment.

As for Tony Snow? Good luck. The Bush administration is totally out of steam, relieved itself on it's base (Minuteman Project, Dubai Port, etc.), and is allowing the DNC to outmaneuver them on conservative issues. What can Snow do in two years? Sure he'll give it his best, but the damage is done.

If anything that Snow can impart, it's saying, "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! THE FIRST RULE OF WHEN YOU'RE IN A HOLE IS STOP DIGGING! PUT THE SHOVELS DOWN NOW! ALL OF YOU! PUT YOUR SHOVELS DOWN THIS MINUTE!" That's the best you can expect from the situation.
