Mike used to be part of the leftist counter-culture, and like David Horowitz, this makes him an extremely formidable and vicious foe of leftists everywhere.

Mike has learned his lessons very well, and he fights well. Some lessons:

1. Fight dirty

2. Make the fight reallllly personal. You might be tempted to use logic, but don't get carried away: if a man is ugly or bald, use that --salt the dagger and push it in deep. Remind the enemy YOU stabbed him, that you ENJOYED stabbing him! If the enemy is a woman, insult her body, especially if she's fat. Note that ankles and thighs yield bonus points.

3. Try to make the enemy lose his/her mind. Make use of sophisticated arguments to burnish your credentials, but mostly picture your audience as taxi drivers, truckers, and cops. Keep the attack loud, fast, funny, and above all, PERSONAL. Tears and rage are the goal.

4. Switch your arguments --sometimes you must aggressively court the allies of the chief enemy.

5. Claim that AT HEART you're a liberal.

6. Say sentimental crap about birds, indians, nature, the sea, and the like. Really let it flow. Get maudlin and wax poetic.

Horowitz is cerebral, but Mike is more effective. Once again, the foot-soldier recruit is the taxi driver, not an accountant, not a personal trainer. Keep the attack funny, simple, personal and RELENTLESS.

Dumbest thing he ever did was interview Charlie Schumer on the air --TWICE. He attacked Schumer, right? Wrong! Savage lost his mind, and began obseqiously kissing his ass..!

I kept waiting for Savage to shift and viciously stab Schumer in the back, alas the attack never came.

I was left with....confusion, malaise, and then much later, intense rage.

I didn't listen again for YEARS.

BRILLIANT!!!

Gaijin, you put all the other Savage critics to SHAME.

I agree with your post about Shumer as well: Mike should have known better.
