Savage Success

Michael Savage, already the author of 25 nonfiction books, penned a debut novel “Abuse of Power,” which was released in mid-September. It reached as high as No. 4 on the New York Times best-seller list for hardcover fiction.

And the inevitable question: Will a film script follow? The concept of primary character Jack Hatfield — a former war correspondent “smeared as a bigot and extremist by a radical leftist media-watchdog group” — could either intrigue or ultimately terrify Hollywood.

Ummmm.....

Where do we start on that comment?

An ENTIRE nation declared a US citizen to be “verboten” because of the manner of HIS SPEECH on a very American medium: talk radio!

Over the years since, not a single talk radio host, and only one congressman, to my knowledge, has come to his defense.

Why?

As a result, Savage is forced to “pat his own back” in order to get the news of this travesty in the public eye.

That is what “Abuse of Power”, the novel, is all about.

Formally, I take issue with your remarks.

I sort of wonder if the book was authored by Michael Weiner or under the pseudonym, Michael Savage.

this guy was siding with Ron Paul and Code Pink on the drone missle takeout of Al Alwaki yesterday. Either he is a complete poser or he’s mentally unstable.

I have tried listening to him and find him to be a ratings whore who puts down other conservatives (like he's the one and only) to boost himself in the ratings. I mean no disrespect to people who listen and like him but I find him to be very self righteous over the top ignoramus. I am glad I am not very opinionated.

And rush, hannity and levin wouldn't dream of patting themselves on the back would they now.

I find the others you mentioned way more interesting and less likely to throw other conservatives under the bus.

[rockabyebaby]

Your comment wasn't about him being interesting or throwing other conservatives under the bus. You specifically stated that he loves to pat his own back.

I'm pointing out that rush, hannity and levin are worse than him in that department. Amazing that you can get past their egos but you can't get past Savage's. Levin throws Savage under the bus just as much as Savage throws him under the bus. rush claims he's never heard of Savage and call that a big fat lie.

...The W. Times, good for them. Been years but it was the only paper I used to buy off the news stand...

...Hmmmm, looks like #3 got pulled. Not good......Am I being watched? Someones looking at me!!!

_{...I'm not paranoid, it's happened, Really, I'm not kidding!!!} /sarc

[gargoyle]

...rush, hannity, and levin are worse...

...I'm offended at your obvious dislike of rush, hannity, and levin, and you should be ashamed of yourself!!!

..._{Did I over do it???} (-;)

...I guess a lot of us that oppose BHO’s policies are on the list. Hope your ready for that possibility...

[gargoyle]

...Your fortunate that on this thread we welcome criticism that is reasoned,,, or not. On other talk show threads they are much more likely to have you silenced permanently...

Michael Weiner should use his real name and
not a name that is fake. Then his radio show
would be called Weiner Nation. There may be
listeners who might wonder why Michael Weiner
insists on using a name that has been completely
fabricated and IMO, somewhat misleading.


And since Michael Weiner has nothing to hide,
he should just reveal his real self. Yessiree,
let the chips fall where they may. Man up, etc.
