I've grown tired of the way Savage badmouths Rush. Savage has no respect for the trail Rush blazed for talk radio and what he has done for the Conservative movement.
I dislike the way savage treats many of his callers depending on his mood. Recently a woman called his show who obviously was very nervous and was a huge fan of Savage. She gushed a moment or two about how much she liked him, the show and so one and the guy hung up on her. He said " Oh - God, I cant take it. I just cant take it!! " and began a rant about the woman.
I'll usually listen to his show on Fridays before I go out. On Friday's he more often in a good mood, plays some great 1950's rock, tells a few stories and shares some laughs.

Regarding Rush, what has he done LATELY? He's most definitely not on the cutting edge of societal evolution any longer. His hearing loss and "doctor shopping" scandal have defanged him. It's very unfortunate. He was once a very good, very entertaining host.

I can't stand Savage's style because he's too abrasive. However, he hammers quite well on the "borders, language, culture" importance if America is to remain the great nation it was for its first 200 years.

I think Savabe gets bored doing his show and takes it out on callers. He's just doing it for the money. When Friday rolls around, he's happier becuse the weekend is near.

The guy's a genius - but close to being nuts, too. When he goes on a philosophy-of-life riff, he can be startlingly wise and insightful. But he can also have outbursts of self-centered arrogance.

I think we all have great respect for Rush and what he ahs done for the movement, but he seems in some ways, on some issues, to have lost his edge. The charge that Savage makes that Rush is just a promoter for the Republican Party is not as far from the truth as Rush's friends and fans would like to believe. He seems to be developing a bit of a star complex.

I dislike the way savage treats many of his callers depending on his mood.

He can be rough sometimes, but he does tend to get more than his share of RDDBs and other troublemakers, and I can understand having only a limited amount of patience with people who babble. And Savage takes on issues that Rush and Sean, much as we love both of them, won't take on. All their voices are needed.

Sean, however, did a great job on the Terri Schiavo case.
