Personally his stories are one of the reasons why I listen. He's a great story teller IMO. As far as his political beliefs--they are definitely not perfect but when I want a more reasonable, optimistic take on the current issues I go to a different source. He's right on some things and he's wrong on some things but he's not boring. His show yesterday was very entertaining.

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

And Jerry Brown will do what to preserve those ideals? I will answer for you, NOTHING!

You have been had.

He is taking you for a ride!

Is he crazy?

Yes.

Is he wrong?

Yes.

Is he dishonest?

I don't think so. People who live in one party states sometimes do find themselves voting for candidates from the other side. I doubt things are like that in California as a whole, but it's probably something San Francisco Republicans or conservatives are used to. It's not a wise or rational decision. It's emotive, and Michael Savage is an emotional guy, more than he's a cool-headed analyst.

There's more here, but the big news you'll find there is that San Francisco's mayor has a 20-year-old girlfriend, the intriguingly named Brittanie Mountz.

My sister in law, who is totally apolitical, went with a friend to see a Micheal Savage show. She came away not liking conservatives.

Not surprising; that's his aim.

I saw through his act soon after I started listening in 2001 during China / U.S. spy plane incident. Savage called - screamed, actually - for the U.S. to nuke China ASAP. ....total annihilation. And then he repeated this lunacy innumerable times in the following days. I guess it didn't occur to him that China also has ICBMs, and that Savage's current residence would probably be among the cities on the target list. No matter, it was the emotion behind his message that mattered. Savage, like leftists in general, elevate emotion above reason.

I just read a bit of this thread--I listen to Savage most nights--I like him but find many contradictions in things that he says from day to day/week to week.

I don't understand your post. I am very curious--could you explain a bit further please?

I will be gone from the computer for a good while but will check back later.
Thank you. Nancy

What exactly does Savage advocate that isn't conservative?

Voting for Jerry Brown.

"there sure are a lot of savage supporters here"

I monitor the Weiner fans on their thread and estimate that there are about 9 of them on FR. On the thread, usually 3 maybe 4 are active during the day.

And for the rest of you posting from your goober eating states: Don't tell us Californians how to vote.

Dude, take some medical marijuana and chill out.

;-)

No one's telling you how to vote. But Savage is a nationally syndicated talk show host (or a guy who plays a nationally syndicated talk show host). If he's an actor, we have a right to discuss it.

Did you mean "wiener" or "whiner"?

"I figure him to be as conservative as any other Ph.D. from New York City living in San Francisco. "

Great line and very fitting.

That contribution did it for me... no way would I support Brown over ANY GOP candidate... the man is going to be a disaster for California as AG.

Now there's a deep, thought provoking insight to bring to the debate (/sarc).

Mike Savage must sit down after the show and read over his emails and the latest from the blogosphere. Then he must pick the most boneheaded arguments that have a grain of truth in them as show topics. Never is there a serious discussion of the facts that you see from other talk show hosts. For instance, Mark Levin can go into similar type rants. However, Levin always has good facts to support his arguments. And, of course, Rush's knowledge of the facts would eat Savage's lunch.
