Consider it done! Glad to know you lurk on the Savage thread, however it's not really nice to bash us without pinging us. :-o

To those that don't know Savage or listen to him, he claims to be an "independent conservative"... He surely does espouse some conservative views, but the vile he spews towards Bush, his cabinet, and other Republicans and GOPers could be mistaken for Air America trash.
It would be easy to blow him off as another looney blow-hard, but he's the 3rd most listened-to talk show host in the nation... He has over 8 million listeners, and in calling himself a conservative, he DOES have some real influence there. He's supposed to be on our side, but shifts positions so often, he's become a joke. He embodies every lefty criticism of our side.
In listening to parts of his show last night, he has the following things to say, in a short time span...
* Syria isn't nearly as bad as Iran, they can be spoken to, they don't threaten Israel, they are nationalists not fundamentalists
* The war was started to benefit Oil companies.
* Blasted Bush to no end, said Rice should have been fired a long time ago, blasted the rest of the cabinet
* Said it was OK for Pelosi to go talk to Syria
* Asked why is there a division between GOP and Dems, why do we automatically assume everything they do should be hated, etc.
In my view, this scum is far more dangerous than Air America and nearly every lib out there. He's pretending to be a conservative, yet does more damage to our causes than any other non-politician I can think of, because he has the influence to sway people.
This guy is an utter disgrace and a phony.

So Wiener thinks he’s the messiah? Explains a lot.
The ‘06 election, for starters
Thanks for posting that list. BTW, where’s the guy that consolidated all of that?

To be fair, I pinged TARK... I don’t have access to a Savage ping list.
I can see why Savage would have ticked off strong conservatives yesterday because he appeared to me to be on a bender. As to what prompted that, it's unimportant. He clearly had a bug up his arse yesterday and was being deliberately provocative - he knows that hostile callers give him a better opportunity to indulge in his 'act,' and it makes for great radio.
I will say that basically, Savage's position boils down to two things: 1. wait and see how the Pelosi trip turns out, and don't impute all sorts of bad things to her until we get a more full report, and 2. don't dismiss ideas simply because they come from a dem or a lib. He is right on both counts, though I think he is more right on the latter - liberals can come up with good ideas now and then, and denying them isn't productive at all/
A person who thinks in 1-D doesn't take to this message very well. A person who thinks in 3-D knows it's the best way to approach life.
Really?
You think THAT many people even have access to his show, let alone listen?
How many stations carry his show, how many markets?
Limbaugh is still on 500 stations (I guess) and still probably claims to have an audience of 20 million?
It could be argued that he is far more influential than savage...... yet your position is that savage trew the election to the democrats?
Anything that undermines Bush becomes a talking point for this psycho.
Checkers and I did most of it.
Limbaugh appeals to conservatives, that’s his base. Savage claims to be a conservative, yet spews far more venom and bile towards conservatives and GOPers than he does at anyone else. There’s a huge difference there. Especially in a very divided nation.
No, I posted that verse in regards to the freemasons, who rejected Jesus.
That’s who I was thinking of. Is he still around? Haven’t seen him post for a while
I agree, he wants to be the radio voice of 'independent' conservatives, rather than party line conservatives, which necessitates him going off the reservation now and then.
Savage can call himself whatever he wants. I just call him a nut.
Going off the reservation??? Man, that’s funny. He’s all over the map, many of the things he espouses aren’t remotely conservative.
You're so typical of the run of the mill Savage-hater, distorting the facts to try to make a point.
Glad I'm here to clarify things to others who weren't there. Actually it was Tark who was doing most of the shouting, no one shouted back at him UNTIL he started tossing personal verbal grenades at some of us who didn't sahre his outrage.
And even then it was only ONE poster who shouted back at him for his personal attack, certainly it had nothing to do with Tark's disagreement with Savage as you so inaccurately claim here, and there was no "cult-like" response from any of the Savage thread regulars shouting at Tark, for that matter I was the only one on the thread who agreed with Savage. So now you can apologize to us for putting out misinformation yet again.
Expect some World of Wiener Warcraft style posts too.
Here are some graphics you requested...
He he!!!
FYI
Don't flatter yourself, NYC Republican. That's been his tagline for some time.
Misinformation? Anyone that wants to see what happened can view yesterday’s Savage thread on their own, and decide for themselves who’s right. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1811457/posts
