An idiot is an idiot no matter what his political strip. I wasn't aware that Michael Moore had a Talk Radio or TV show. When is it on the air?
The current crop of blow-dried loud-mouthed entertainers who are using their claimed conservatism to line their pockets with payola are eventually going to destroy the conservative movement. Each new clown that comes along knows that the fastest route to riches is by being the loudest, most virulent talking head on the scene. Eventually one of two things will happen. The public will either begin to equate all conservatives to those blow-dried fools and turn against conservatism entirely or a particuraly articulate con-artist with exceptional skills of persuasion will arrive on the scene to reap havoc.
We don't need entertainers with sky-high salaries to sell conservatism, they can only damage us later.
I, too, agree that idiots aren't limited by their...strips...uhm...man, you just put an image of Michael Moore and Michael Savage stripping in my head, not fun. :-) (stripe, I know, honest typo, couldn't resist the joke).
Nah, Michael Moore doesn't have a TV show (well, he did get a wee bit of air time at the Academy Awards), just an Oscar.
I see you don't bother to save your vitriol for me, either. ;-) Heh. However, surprise, I'm going to have to back up and agree with you.

I worry about that myself. Everybody wants to be Rush, but...only Rush is Rush, and charming enough to brush off criticism. The race to become conservative pundit of the week IS worrisome. It leads to op-ed pieces or TV appearances/shows that preach ONLY to the choir. This is pointless. We don't need any more convincing that we're right. We *do* need people who can write or speak effectively enough so that a liberal will listen to them EVEN if they disagree with them. Which is not the case with Savage -- a moderate is going to switch him off right away and file him away under "right-wing nut" in his head. Personally, I don't think he's a nut, but I'm part of the choir; Savage's job is NOT to convince me that his viewpoint is right, since I agree with him (mostly), but to convince the people who DISAGREE with him that he's right. Which he's not good at doing.
On the whole though, I'm just not as ticked as you about Savage, sorry. Too much outrage at too many other things; I only have time for so much, y'know? :-) This ranks rather low on my radar.
