Savage did try to help the Marines charged in Haditha. He did donate money, have the parents on, and encourage listeners to donate for their defense. I was very glad he spoke up and did something for those soldiers.
Savage is a fake.Savage/Weiner is a liberal/communist . This is just one example here of millions Ive heard.

Michael Savage calls for gun control, government censorship, and praises Obama in that video above.
I think I heard that show too...I was like damn...dude is really prickly.
If someone called me a great American, I’d thank them.
Schnitt does the same exact thing on his show. Last week, he claimed not to like the term "low information voter" that Rush uses. He claims to prefer a phrase that he came up with, "low information moron", since the beginning of his talk radio career. He also claimed that he was the first to have a name for that idiot group that votes for Democrats.
All that these guys (Schnitt and Savage) do is go down Drudge's page, line by line and make a 3 hour show out of it. No talent, no originality. Neither of them.
Me too, but they are not soldiers -- they are MARINES.
Mark mentioned googling Savage and fiji. So I did:
Michael Savage
AKA Michael Alan Weiner
Before becoming Michael Savage, he authored more than a dozen books.
One of his books was a work of fiction called Vital Signs, in which the protagonist wrestles with his attraction to masculine beauty. “I choose to override my desires for men when they swell in me”, Weiner wrote, “waiting out the passions like a storm, below decks.” At one time, Weiner self-published his own zines featuring inflammatory pieces about gay sex at San Francisco bathhouses. He was apparently opposed to such things. But he was a friend of beat poet Allen Ginsberg, the very, very out gay author of Howl. In a 1970 letter to Ginsberg, someone signed Michael Weiner described a semi-erotic encounter he had had with another man in Fiji. Weiner says he did not write the letter, though the return address was in Honolulu, where Weiner resided at the time.
His self-aggrandizing demeanor gets old.
Thanks for the correction. :)
Savages real surname is WEINER. It is German, and so was pronounced originally VINE-er. It means someone who deals in wine.
WIENER is that former NY congress-critter. His name was originally pronounced VEEN-er, meaning someone from Vienna. Neither name has anything to do with human anatomy, of course.
I can understand Savages not using his true surname, because people would never get the pronunciation right. This is because English spelling is so irregular, and American knowledge of foreign languages is so poor, and so many people are dyslexic anyway, that there is little chance of getting his said name right, unless it is real simple.
Heck, many people can’t even get either right. There is a long story behind that word, but the original English pronunciation was EE-ther, not EYE-ther. We Americans are more likely to say it the first way (in most parts of the country), which is good, old, Shakespearian pronunciation. The way most Brits say it is not original and (as far as I am concerned) is aberrant.
Savage is funny in small samples. But he is a bit off the wall. And his callers are far more on the fringe than the others. Mark, Sean, Rush, Laura, etc are mainstream conservative. Beck is good too, but a bit too conspiratorial for me.
Of them all, I enjoy Mark Levin the most.
They have all received their reward....big egos.. big bank accounts... they are as lost as bill maher or that boy on msnbc.... Babylonians just the same...
I like Savage and his radio show. He gets angry and its good radio. Enjoy it very much.
Sean Hannity supports Illegal Alien Amnesty....$6 trillion in spending for the Amnesty bill
Hannity is not a conservative...its not debateable
And, no, Levin did not beat Savage in the ratings. In fact, Levin is losing audience....the local affiliate for Levin here in Orlando pulled Levin off 6-9 pm after they moved Savage.... and Levin did worse in ratings than Savage in the time slot
Levin lost this...and badly
Weiner over Whiner
That is incorrect
Savage has contributed to the defense funds of military folks who were being railroaded in court-martials when they defended themselves against Islamic terrorists. Also he has contributed his own money to defense funds of law enforcement who were being railroaded by race baiters
This is BS from Levin if he said this.
Sounds like Levin is getting ready to support Illegal Alien Amnesty.... wayyy too cozy with Hannity and Rubio. Mark my words
Schnitt was a Romney supporter very early in the primary season....very early
Savage is terrible
I think the guy is nuts, but I find some of his diatribes to be absolutely hilarious. If I could cobble together an audio file of the best five minutes from each hour of his show, it would be a talk radio classic. The problem I have with him is that he’s unbearable for the other 55 minutes every hour.
Hannity is a “Reagan” conservative, don’t you know? He annoyingly says it every few minutes.
If Hannity is Reagan Conservative, then I’m George Washington winning the American Revolution...lol
re: “They have all received their reward....big egos.. big bank accounts... they are as lost as bill maher or that boy on msnbc.... Babylonians just the same...”
Rush would be the first to agree he has an ego, but “lost as bill maher. . . Babylonians just the same”??
What do you mean by “lost”?
I know that Glen Beck has a Mormon background and Sean Hannity is Catholic. Michael Savage has a Jewish upbringing.
I really don’t know what Mark Levin’s religious views are (except that he is not hostile to the Judeo-Christian worldview, and, in fact promotes that world-view). Rush definitely has a Christian world-view. Unless YOU have the ability of God to know the heart of any of these men, YOU really have no clue (with the exception of Beck’s mormonism v. orthodox Christianity) as to their spiritual condition or destination.
Yes, they have been successful financially in their field - does that mean they are “Babylonian”? By that I take it to mean you think they are all morally deficient?
None of these men have claimed to be religious leaders or experts or spokesmen for any particular religion even though they do unashamedly espouse a Judeo-Christian world-view.
Your quip that “they have received their reward” is a reference to Jesus’s rebuke to the religious leaders of His day who made a show of their supposed devotion to God, but were really just vying for the acclaim of men - that was the “reward” that Jesus spoke of.
It seems as though you equate financial success and fame with hypocracy and spiritual decadence. I think you should be careful of judging the thoughts, motives, hearts, and spiritual condition of others based on the criteria you gave.
