Right-Winger Blasts O'Reilly

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."

Savage is a nasty drunk Jew!

Care to rephrase that?

Savage is not a “gay-basher.” We have to stop name calling and trying to stigmatize conservatives who stand up for the culture, our borders and language. There is a gay agenda to corrupt our morals. We are in a cultural war for our lives and the future.

Dunno, Savage can be funny, especially when he's in the depressive phase of his bipolarness.

I agree if Savage could get on some decent medication he could actually be quite and effective spokesman for the right :-)

[Exton1]

If Savage in not a conservative, he is a Nationalist. He is for America, Borders, Language, and culture. Which is more than I can say for Bush.

i like savage quite a bit. i listen to him out of 660AM in dallas. cant stand o'reilly.

[maine-iac7]

O'Reilly is a pompous, self-important, airheaded egotist with delusions of grandeur and relevance. And he's 1000 times better than Savage.

Spot on!

[maine-iac7]

Hannity IQ = 140 Savage = 70.

typo?

shouldn't that be Savage .07? :O)

[26lemoncharlie]

I'm not sure if any of you will remember this. Paula Zahn was on Fox then. She had Rushbo on as a guest!! He Identified her as a Liberal, she couldn't fathom how he did that!!

She left shortly after that, not because of this I'm sure. I believe it was about 6 months later!! It was Paula Gone!!

Michael Savage is a blabbering idiot and gives conservatives a bad name.

ditto that...

Right-Winger Blasts O'Reilly

This is amazing we have extremists on BOTH SIDES of the spectrum although i wouldn't call Oreilly an extremist i would say he has delusions of grandeur.....

Hannity is closer to a true Republican of modern times as he has the patience that most don't when it comes to asking questions and being persistent on getting them answered.....

Savage IS an extremist he pushes the envelope on nearly every subject of Border Language and Culture and he's damn good at pointing out the good and bad of each one of those subjects but his rants sometimes go to far for the meek at heart.....

Savage Is the Extremist because he says things and does things the other 2 don't want to risk saying for being seen as an extremist Savage falls into the category of an Alex Jones type Conservative ready to fight at the drop of a hat.....

Oreilly and Hannity remind me of todays Republican scared to take a broad step forward because of political downfalls


I sometimes wonder if we have lost what it takes to stand up for what is right for fear of retribution Oreilly and Hannity remind me of those republicans.....

Michael Savage needs to turn his program into less about politics and more about personal story-telling. He's at his best when relaying stories of his life.

Savage is in your face with an attitude.. honestly.. he isn't a pick-pocket..
Bush AND his Dad and Brother too (used to live in Florida) all 3 picked my pocket..
Don't trust any of them.. I like people I can trust..
Can't trust the Bushs.. Their sneaky as a Lyndon Johnson democrat..

[commonguymd]

I suggest carrying your wallet in the front pocket, and then you wouldn't get your pocket picked so much. /smirk

[bad company]

Savage is a nasty drunk Jew !

Ask the mods to pull your post and switch to decaf.

[ I suggest carrying your wallet in the front pocket, and then you wouldn't get your pocket picked so much. /smirk ]

Did that ever since "Read my lips NO new taxes"...
Carry a fake in back pocket..
G.W. and Jeb got wallets with "nasty notes".. /wink d;-'
They are even dumber than their Dad..

[Fresh Wind]

Is this why they call Mike Savage "Dr."

When you get your PhD, people will call you "Dr." as well. Vannity calls himself "Dr. Hannity" when he does his embarrassing and excruciatingly boring advice shows.

[Accygirl]

Correct about that. His political comments are embarrassing and give a bad name to conservatives everywhere.

As for O'Reilly, of course he's pompous and self-important, but that's what makes him so entertaining to watch.
