You nailed it.
And Ronald Reagan is credited with saying (paraphrased from memory), "80% of conservative political views is good enough for me".
I stopped listening to Michael Savage when it was revealed that he made the maximum allowable contribution to Jerry Brown, aka Governor Moonbeam.
Wondering if Savage will go the way of Glenn Beck ....
Hunterdon County New Jersey in 2012....She pressed ‘R’ but the thing changed to ‘D’......Hello 4 million ‘no shows?’
I’ve often thought the same thing.
I tried listening to him a couple of times last week while on a long trip. It was nothing more than a 4 hour commercial for his new book. Even the call in’s were either staged or prepped to ask questions that related completely to his book. I am not going to waste my time listening to a 4 hour infomercial. Turned XM/Sirius back on.
Michael Savage brought up weeks ago that the enterovirus outbreak sickening hundreds, killed four kids and paralyzed several more in Colorado was endemic to Central America and spread by the “unaccompanied minor children” in this summer’s immigration surge, distributed around the nation and then put in school as “homeless” so they don’t have to have vaccination records.
Now the CDC admits there’s a link

Except for illegal amnesty(he is not the first to do it), Obama’s damage to the country in his remaining term is likely to be limited. He is disenchanted. His domestic policy has failed. Blacks standard of living is lower than when he started in spite of spending zillions of our dollars. His socialist health care ideas have been a failure already. His international policy has failed. Millions of homeless are in Syria. 200,000 murdered. Ukraine invaded. Russia humiliating him regularly.
He got to do much of what he wanted to do politically and it all failed. Now he just wants to play golf and be left alone.
Really? I have listened to him for years and have never heard him bash Israel or the Founding Fathers.
I’m not the biggest Savage fan but he’s right about Obama. Of course the guy would take over if he could and I’m not sure he won’t try in the next two years.
Mark Levin seemed visibly shaken to me on Hannity the other night. He’s very concerned about what Obama is going to start doing after the Midterm elections. So am I.
He can pick a topic and waste a whole day on it.
Not all, but many, possibly a majority of veterans are crybabies, who are milking the free-government money train. I work with see them at my reunions and see them at my reunions all the time.
"I saw (or claimed I saw) bad things - now where do I pick up my check... FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE."
I should amend that to make it clear that the majority of veterans getting disability payments for PTSD are milking the system - not veterans in general.
Though very many who have been in the sandbox will claim PTSD. Word gets around, and it's hard to turn down free money.
Seems like whenever I have listened to him, he’s done that.
To me the top conservative talkers all have their own qualities. They would be:
1. Rush Limbaugh
2. Glenn Beck
3. Mark Levin
4. Sean Hannity
5. Michael Savage
6. Hugh Hewitt
7. Laura Ingraham
8. Dana Loesch
9. Doc Thompson
10. Steve Deace
You could also add a few other National shows on that list But I did the ones that came off the top of my head. I would recommend Laurie Roth or Roger Hedgecock as well. Still my point is all the radio personalities have good things about them and also bad things too. The big thing is Savage is up against Hannity and also part of Dana Loesch’s show. So if one cared youtube has his archives since he has no podcast page. Hannity, which most here don’t like, moved his podcast page to a Iheart area and closed the section on his website.
25% of the general population is predisposed to PTS. Children who are sexually abused or mentally abused are around 30%. Rape, abortion, abused women, 25%.
PTS is separate from depression. Can co-habitate, but can be experienced separately.
There will always be scammers. My main concern is those with depression and PTS who are fighting the fight and may someday give up. TBI is a big factor, too. We have so many wounded who would not have survived in other wars.

Don’t be afraid to find out how many veterans have killed themselves. Many of the guys in the trenches of WW1 killed themselves in the trenches.
Whenever I caught the show he was talking about restaurants, or his dog, or herbal remedies ...
Oh, Savage also believes the SEALs were traded for Ben Laden. After the trade, or Extortion 17, the suicide rate went up among our cry-baby SEALs. Then there was Benghazi, another stab in the back and actually what I consider BETRAYAL so, for all those who believe that the rising suicide rate is crying...I say Benghazi: What difference did it make in the lives of our Special Forces???
I also know that there are those without the predisposition to PTS who actually use the trauma to do good. If you know what the statistical bell curve looks like, I would bet that the one end 25% are those who suffer PTS and the other end of the bell curve are the 25% whose brains can handle the trauma and use the memory which is not debilitating to create a better environment or do something with it.
I want the neurologists to do a comparative study of those brains. There was an article about those who survived 9-11 and were the non-sufferers who acted creatively with it. I want to know how we heal or strengthen those brains that are predisposed to PTS (if possible). I know those with PTS can recover. I read their testimonies.
hmmm. I wonder if there is a way to find out if people are predisposed to depression. I’ll have to do some more searching. Have a great weekend and pray Satan doesn’t get anyone to give up. Thank God (I do) that you don’t have either one.
