“Michael Savage is not the issue, the left’s assault on freedom is the issue.”
I tend to agree. I can’t stand Savage; he’s an idiot at best, a plant to make conservatives look stupid at worst. He’s been used as a useful idiot by the Left on more than one occassion (the Dubai port deal being an example).
Indeed, I suspect he is a liberal who is playing his idea of what an over-the-top conservative might act.
That said, the man is engaging in SPEECH. He incites no one to violence.
This is basic censorship of ideas, no matter how silly the speaker.
I agree with you that he is volatile and on more than one occassion says things that are not helpful to conservatives. He’s ranted about Iraq being all about oil, then says both parties are all the same, then saying ‘where are the Republicans?’ without informing us of what they did. At the same time, he nails the liberals like Obama to the wall.
And I dont like his discounting of the other talk radio right.
I think its genuine though, in that anyone living in San Fran for 30 years will end up going crazy.
