Michael Savage, the conservative badboy shockjock whom progressives love to hate, is returning to the airwaves of the Bay Area next week -- with his debut on a local all-sports sports station.
Savage will debut on 50,000 watt KTRB-AM, which is known as XTRA Sports 860 AM, beginning Feb. 1, he says. He was a fixture on KSFO-AM until 2003 and after that on KNEW-AM -- but he was dropped last September after managers said the station was "headed in a new direction."

Like most that claim the title “conservative”, he’s very strong on some issues (language, borders, culture, defense) and weak on others, mainly economic issues and understanding Constitution and the role of the judiciary. There are many “conservatives” that are not sharp in these areas.
I’m not sure what about my post made you think I’m a dittohead.
FWIW, I’m not. I prefer to be informed, not told boring stories to.
Young Mike Behenna offered his life for your freedom, and now he’s in prison because of it....
