Savage is a fake just like the Westboro Baptist Church phonies. His goal is to marginalize Conservatives with statements like “You should only get AIDS and die, you pig.” and then donating to Democrats.
I have often suspected this myself. I remember once when Scott Brown was running the first time, Savage was interviewing some Massachusetts GOP honcho. Savage used the term teabaggers to describe tea party activists. I could hear the guy doing a double take, but he politely let it pass. Then Savage says it AGAIN, seemingly unaware that it was a derogatory term seldom used by tea partiers themselves. I’m thinking its either another of his many gaffes or a Freudian slip. Psychogical nudity, indeed.
