Michael Savage: Left-Winger
Copyright 2006 The American Spectator ^ | Friday, October 27, 2006 @ 8:36:18 PM | Posted By: Hunter Baker

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 Savage wanted to reward Moonbeam for the military academy, he could always send the money to the *school* - not Jerry's AG campaign.

Now bootless, quit exposing flaws in other peoples logic....that's not nice of you.

You get what you deserve

And you keep on being programmed by someone who
has convinced you that they are smarter than yourself.

Dumbass.

Levin is actually an effective voice in advancing the conservative agenda. Of course, if one were not a conservative, they might not take any comfort in that.

I like Levin, always did even before he got his radio show and I think he is a great asset in the trenches to help champion the conservative cause and I only wish his show leaps and bounds and I would be surprised if most Savage listeners didn't feel the same way.

By the same token the feeling isn't mutual from Levin's listeners toward Savage or his ilk for whatever reason. It seems to be my brand of conservatism is better than your brand, na-nah-nah-na-na!

If I want someone to defend conservatism, I like the way Savage or Levin or Coulter does it, but it seems in today's politically charged politically incorrect atmosphere the Republican Party does not care to defend or champion conservatism, they'd rather sell it under a new name and a new flavor but in the process the message has become just a skeleton of what it once was. Savage sees it now, eventually all conservatives will.

" I could go on and on but afterall this is just Der "Weiner' that I'm agreeing with. So start contesting FRiend!"

Most of those issues are common among 75% of America and doesn't make you into some super bread of Conservative.

That's funny, because all I hear is crickets on your thread when he...

Supports a minimum wage
Supports Moonbeam Brown
Claims global conspiracies against US companies
Claims conspiracies against Oil companies

I could go on and on. Contest those facts my FRiend, or at a minimum, answer how you agree with him on the minimum wage.

I have never heard one of you Weiner friends defend his minimum wage position.

Here is your chance.

Not at all. I only listen to Rush or Glenn Beck occasionally. I just recognize the fact that Savage is a loon and a fraud.

As flawed as the Republicans are (and they are flawed), they are the only home for conservatives in this two party nation of ours...democrats are NOT an option...so we who consider ourselves conservatives, have to work to elect REPUBLICANS - while working to make the republican party more conservative.

I don't hate Michael (perplexed by his choice to support to a Rat, perhaps)...I just don't get his brand of bombast...It's a personality thing...a brand preference, I guess.

If you love America and hate radical Islam (and you vote pubbie)...I have no quarrel with you my FRiend...

Oh, sorry. I forgot myself for a moment.

(grin)

All I'd like to see here is some intellectual honesty in the argument. Yes, it pained me the first time I saw the President stumble in the immigration debate. It has been sorely disappointing. I would love for him to be the conservative's conservative. He's not. But he's a good man, who was the right man at the right time after the 9/11 attacks. But would I toss him overboard in favor of Kerry, just to "teach him a lesson?" HELL NO!

The perfect is the enemy of the good, and the Democrat Party is, for the most part, not pulling the rope in the right direction. And I don't want to vote them the "rope" to hang us all with.

Boiler plate photo montage from the Fishtank arsenal.

Savage is a TALK SHOW HOST. Period.

He is NOT the Bush RNC (Republican National Committee) which supported both Arlen Specter and then Lincoln Chaffee against REAL Republican primary opponents.

These aren't the RINO political campaign contributions you're looking for.

Move along.

Note to self: better late than never on this post..........

Actually I'd prefer you just go on and on.

"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."

"superficial tripe"

Hmmm...what does that mean?

Here we are on a thread written by a national Conservative magazine which is critical of Dr. Weiner. I agree with everything written because it is the same stuff I have been telling you guys.

I can simplify it in my own personal way if you like.

Savage attacks all of us, so I'm just doing my duty and fighting back. He is bad for the Conservative movement. I beg you to realize this.

His main theme is the preservation of our Borders, Language and Culture.

Savage is savage in his manners, his beliefs, his courtesy, his language, his voice tones, and is most interested in the preservation of Savage and really doesn't give a hoot about any of his inbound callers as he calculates he is the top cheese and his ideas (taken from others) are the utmost and will spare no words belittling moderates and other conservatives.
