Can't stick around to do much discussing tonight, but Savage is REALLY feeding the Bush bashers today. He's at his MOST obnoxious right now.
He's attacking Bush for NOT being rude and offensive at the Clinton portrait unveiling. He says Bush didn't say anything good about Reagan at the funeral.
Savage is an ignorant buffoon, IMHO.
He's in San Francisco.
I agree in general that Savage is being a jerk, Bush did not have to suck up to the Clintons today. This is not necessary for him to host the Clintons portrait being painted. He could have let some flunky at the White House take care of it. He should not have been rude, but he did not have to suck up to Clinton either.
He's in San Francisco - then he means BUTT CHEEK!
W.T.F.?!?! The man is either drunk or delusional (or both.)
What an idiot he has turned into.

HEH HEH that is my tag line for long time now. ;-)
Savage is a friggin Moron. He's controlled more by a spirit of Contrarianism than Conservatism. He's the Loserdopian's man on the radio.
Michael like the term quisling, I think it fits.
Heh. Got that right.
Bush = Class.
Savage = No class.
Savage can't help himself, he just hates Clinton that much.
Head of State is a ceremonial, not a political role. A very large part of any president's time is taken up by ceremonial Head of State duties, and unveiling the portraits of a president's immediate predecessor is one of those duties. Partisan politics are simply inappropriate at such occasions.
Clinton had to do it for Bush 41. Reagan had to do it for Carter, who had to do it for Ford, and so on, as far back as these ceremonial unveilings have been taking place. If Savage doesn't know that, he's ignorant. If he knows but doesn't understand it, he's stupid. If he knows and understands, but doesn't care, he's an ass.
He pats himself on the back more than anyone I've ever seen -- a total narcissist. It's hilarious when he calls himself a "scientist" and a "scholar." What's his degree in, nutrition? Also claims that Dubya stole the term "compassionate conservatism" from him, and that Rush steals a bunch of stuff every week. Complete BS, all of it.
I tend to think Bush had to treat the Clintons graciously today. But IF you think Clinton was a brutal rapist (and I do) to cite just one example, then it can be viewed as moral cowardice to treat him with respect. I happen to think Clinton did a long list of things which disqualify him from decent public treatment, but most Republicans are too "clever" to call a degenerate a degenerate.
I quit listening the day he aired the Nick Berg audio at the top of the first hour with no warning. He's a nut. An inconsiderate nut at that...

And on FR, you call them trolls, Evil-DUers, (Actually, I just made that one up, I think!) and other things without actually getting to the heart of the issue.
The issue is: Why all the ass-kissing for "The Great Stainmaker" ???
He could have done what Ah-Nuld (another FR favorite) is supposedly planning to do at the convention: Give a subdued, non-glowing, polite presentation without the jokes, back slapping, and laudatory praise.
If I was in Bush's position, I could not bring myself to praise a man that sold our nuclear technology to China, forever disgracing th Presidency, and endangering the Greatest Nation On God's Green Earth. Anyone disagree? If you do, call me at 1 800 955 1776...Whoops! I have been listening to too much Michael Medved as well.
By the way: He is DEAD ON about "Tah-raaaay-zah Hind's-end Kerry"
