I've always known there was something wrong with Michael Savage's schtick. It's intolerable. He talks like an absolute madman. He is just about as intemperate as you can get and still be on the radio.
Now I know what was wrong. The whole thing is a put-on:
Supporting a candidate out of your own wallet may be the most accurate gauge of what a donor believes in his heart. So it should come as a shock to fans to learn where their hero distributes his own political gifts. Which are not ungenerous. Just ask Jerry Brown, the decidedly liberal candidate (pro-abortion, pro-gun control, etc.) for California attorney general.
As the San Francisco Chronicle reports, Savage is a top contributor to Brown's campaign against conservative state senator Chuck Poochigian. His gift of $5,600, the maximum allowable under state law, was merited, Savage told the Chronicle after being outed. Why? Because "You have to make choices in an imperfect world."
RIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGHHHTTTTT.

"If he's also a complete phony that only makes him marginally worse IM(notso)HO"
He must be doing something right. he's the third largest show in the country.
And go ahead and insult his millions of listeners, they vote too.
And may i remind you that the GOP is not worried about your vote.
They will get your vote regardless of what they do.
The listeners of Savage nation is what the GOP is going after.
They are the independent conservatives that the GOP will need.
They have already got your vote and they know it.
You need to go back to street preaching. You are obviously not a listener of the Savage show, just a Levin shill.
Thanks for the advice, Captain N00bie.
I've been peddling this and that here for years before you ever heard of the place.
So it is with the utmost respect and adoration that I heed your advice.
I read it. As I said, it is superficial tripe. But I find YOUR continued inability to form a cogent argument of you OWN very amusing and not terribly surprising. Dude.
What does his competitive insults have to do with his positions? How do they make him a "left-winger" as the ignoramus who wrote this article asserts?
You're quite welcome. It is nice to see a FR old-timer like yourself appreciate the genius of Savage.
According to the Wikipedia article Savage wanted to be a comedian in the model of Lenny Bruce.
Get some sleep, buddy.
Why waste so much time on this crap?
Mike is who he is, and always will be. Deal with it.
How about Jerry Brown?
Read the discussion page of that article.
The writers ADMIT to hating Savage.
LOL! Oh well you might as well include the 2006 elections too because I heard him say the same thing just recently, however you need to keep it in context as it is usually related more to his frustration to what the Republicans are or are not doing more than to a promotion of anything Democrat OVER anything Republican and he makes that statement knowing his audience's disdain for anything Democrat.
However that's a long shot from actually advocating voting FOR a Democrat OVER a Republican in essence their ideals over our ideals and the discerning Savage listener knows this, and again the Brown donation is in no way altering the conservative/liberal landscape and it doesn't make sense to me why he would do it, but because of this Savage now a left-winger? The author of this piece is on crack!
Haven't learned paragraphs or line breaks yet, huh?
Too cool. Lends major credibility. Like radio.

I stopped listening to his show after the 2004 election so i cant comment on the newer stuff(i listened to him the other day for about 15 minutes just to see what was saying, and it was more BS, you know him thinking that he is a General)
Maybe this is Mike's idea of getting a little more attention.
A hit piece about once a month can generate alot of free publicity.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Remember, in two years we change commander-in-chief...Who will carry the mantle in the WOT? A democrat? Think again. I'll take Joe's help with so few patriotic democrats left in America.
Beats a 9 - 5 job and pays a hell of a lot more...........I'd do it myself if I could pull it off but I can't even lie to myself in the mirror.........
