“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.”

I really do not listen to him much, but from a conservative standpoint, Bush and a good number of GOPers richly deserve some criticism. Sucking up to the current GOP leadership is NOT a measure of one’s conservative credentials.

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.

I am not so clear what is meant by “OUR” side. Like I said in the previous post, conservatives should be critical of the Bush administration and much of the current GOP leadership.

* Syria isn’t nearly as bad as Iran, they can be spoken to, they don’t threaten Israel, they are nationalists not fundamentalists"

He is right here except the part about Syria not threatening Israel.

This is very true and some conservatives (on the radio and in everyday life) are just pathologically incapable of calling things like they are. This really damages their credibility. Savage's criticisms - from the right - of the admin is a breath of fresh air, even if he is over the top often. The alternatives in the top 3 talkers are shameless shills for the GOP to the point that it's very difficult for a clear-minded person to even listen to their never-ending, sing-song defense of Dubya and the GOP.
