For the life of me I will never understand why there is so much hatred on FR for Savage. I enjoy Levin, Rush, (to a lesser degree) Hannity, and others. But to other FReepers it seems you can like Levin OR Savage but not both. I just don't get it. Are these paid shills for WABC radio or Levin? WABC GM Phil Boyce once hinted as much to me in an email which I saved. I just don't get it.
These are ALL great Americans. But Savage seems to be alone in daring to tell Bush and the GOP when they are wrong. On Dubai, Rush was a stooge and sounded stupid and out of touch. On immigration it was Savage screaming alone for years until the Minutemen became fashionable, and then Levin, Hannity and Rush (in that order) began to harp on it as well.
Come on, you've GOT to be kidding me. It's not the end of the world if he aims his arsenals towards Republicans 22 out of 24 months, but just before the election??? Saying there's no difference between Rep and Dems? Saying he won't vote? Mocking other CONSERVATIVE talk-show hosts? Mocking Tony "Snowjob" and calling him a liar? Juvenile taunts like "Sean Vanity", "Hush Bimbo", "Leprechaun". Calling Condi a dunce and an idiot. Calling for Rummy's firing and laughing at the juvenile phrase Ronald Dumsfeld?
If this were a war and we're being bombarded from all sides, and THEN we get pounded by friendly fire as well, I'd think they were treasonous. Savage is a DISGRACE in my opinion, and I'll keep speaking out against this SOB...
We have enough enemies and those on the left -the MSM, the Dems, colleges, gays/minorities/poor/entitlement seekers/etc, without this looney bin pounding the GOP...
If he had 1 million listeners, instead of 8.25, I wouldn't care nearly as much.
Do you want more reasons why I hate him? Saying Iraq was better off with Saddaam? Calling Iraq one of the worst blunders in history?
When one gets offended they can no longer function or reason rationally. On FR you have the Rush bots who Savage has offended, you have the Hannity-bots, also offended by Savage, you have the Levin-bots, whose leader is the bodyguard and attack dog for defending Hannity's honor from Savage's attacks, and then last but not least you have the Bush-bots.
So all in all I'd assume that represents a pretty good percentage of people here on FR and elsewhere who take it personal. Only the conservative 'purists' like you and me can understand a 'Savage'. LOL!
