Right now he's talking about an article, "Wary Democrats discover a severe 'parents gap'".
My blood does not goil listening to him, and I listen to what he has to say occasionally. I'm sorry that yours does.

RABID radio host Michael Savage is whining that he has been banned from the Fox News Channel after he dissed Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity.
The controversial conservative — who was fired by MSNBC in 2003 after referring to a caller to his show as "a sodomite" who should "get AIDS and die" — recently burned more bridges by calling O'Reilly a "Leper-Con who poses as a conservative" and Hannity "another Republican bootlicker who began as a Rush [Limbaugh] understudy" on his "Savage Nation" radio show.
Savage claims that he's been bumped off four scheduled appearances on Fox News Channel in the wake of his caustic comments.
"These two are now acting the way the mainstream media has been acting for decades, thinking they are the gatekeepers of who shall be heard in the conservative world," Savage sputtered in a statement.
"Both are jealous of my audience and are trying to silence me because they do not want the competition."

Oops, typo... Man, I had a long day at work.
Nuff said!
I have no interest Savage's hatefilled rants.
Savage is no right winger.
I know he/she's talking about Savage/Donohue but he sounds more like he's talking about Savage/O'Reilly.
Michael Savage is the tazer-gun of the right.
Anyone who has listened to Savage knows he is an old leftist who claims to be "independant" now. I'm not fooled.
As long as I have Rush, the rest are little more than window dressing.
That's what people say about David Horowitz. Someone named Whittaker Chambers was also an old leftist before he switched sides and provided insights from the perspective of someone that was once steeped in the doctrines of the left. Don't mistake him for a LIEberal.
From a description of the book "Principles & Heresies":
In his roles as author, editor, columnist, activist, and amateur political philosopher, Frank Straus Meyer (1909-1972) played a decisive role in birth and growth of the post-World War II American conservative movement. Though he possessed a fiery and provocative personality, Meyer served as a unifying figure for conservatives because of his efforts to "fuse" the traditionalist and libertarian strands of conservatism, which then, as now, were often at odds.
His untiring labors paid off, providing the necessary cohesion for a fractious movement to eventually sweep to power with the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980. Today, Meyer's fusionist outlook has been adopted, at least implicitly, by virtually every self-identified conservative organization in America... as a young man Meyer was a radical revolutionary dedicated to the overthrow of the United States government. The Communist Party USA used him in a number of capacities: as an undercover recruiter at the University of Chicago; as a student organizer at the London School of Economics, from which Meyer was expelled for distributing communist literature; and as its educational director in the Indiana-Illinois region.
Sorry about the symbols but it helps moderate some of my traffic. If you just cut and paste my name (HowardLSmith.ô¿ô) into your standard ping address list it will work. Thanks for your PINGS!!!!!

That's what I did--copied and pasted it onto my list. We'll see if it works next time I send out a Laura PING (and if she's having breast cancer treatments, that may be a while).
Talk about a shameless attempt at publicity.
If Savage could offer half the insight O'Reilly does on a nightly basis he might be half as popular.
I'm not sure this guy really knows what he wants. He's attacking O'Reilly, one of (IMO) the best in the biz...yet he gets thrown off every radio and television network that lets him on. He's just a bit too much.
Well said, and my thoughts exactly on the four men.
The only thing I'd add -- and this is just a personal sore point with me -- is that O'Reilly's Orwellian use of the term "progressive" (when he's describing a left-winger) is getting on my last nerve. Basically I enjoy watching his show, but his increasing use of that word is bizarre.
And Rush is, simply put, God's gift.
I'm fed up with O'Reilly, too. At least Michael Savage hated the fact that Terri was dehydrated and starved to death. O'Reilly seemed like he couldn't care less.
It doesn't matter how much money Savage makes, how many books he sells, or how high his ratings are. He just can't stand that he's not accepted into the inner sanctum of Conservative media personalities and it eats at him like a cancer.
A better name for them would be "Social Revisionists."
