Paraphrasing here, he was talking about the boom in diagnosis of ADD, ADHD, and Autism, for purposes of getting on the government gravy train.
He was not talking about the truly autistic, or mentally disabled.
Remember, he had a brother who died, that was severely mentally disabled.
MM is on a jihad against free speech, and talk radio in particular.
Of course it's not what he said, he didn't say any of that. I'm a regular listener, so I should know.
Yea, where were they when Bill Maher famously said some years ago that "mentally retarded children should be equated to dogs because that's how they should be considered as".
I don’t know what to make of Savage. I sometimes listen to him precisely because I never know what he will say. Sometimes (often) he says things that are outlandish. When Savage gets off topic, he will say something about music, literature, history, his travels, etc. At least there is a chance that what he says will be interesting. Rush is a more balanced person and overall more listenable but when Rush gets off topic, he will ramble on about football or golf - I find sports statistics to be about as comprehensible and entertaining as reading the tax code so at that point I always turn Limbaugh off.
