"Why aren't we demanding erudition, seriousness, and quiet dignity of our spokesmen?"

Like NPR?

Consider that we've had this guy for years and he fits your description:

...but Buckley never motivated me to take my anger and frustration with the Clinton regine and turn it to useful action.

One night while listening to Savage, he suggested candlelight vigils during the 2000 election debacle....I wanted more, so I called in and said that I would be in Justin Herman Plaza to march through San Francisco to tell Gore "No More". We had a large crowd that weekend and we all discovered that there are really many conservatives around here...not just a couple.

We need to push the envelope and take our frustration with years of dignified and lonely passive conservatism, and turn it into decisive, well planned, public action to move the sheeple away from the cliff of socialism.

Savage and Rush give us that fire....not that they are always 100% correct in content or form, nobody is...but they have the brass cajones and aren't afraid to put them up on the block.

Congratulations Savage! A lonely voice in the world CAN make a difference.

I sometimes get mad at Michael Savage -- so mad that I turn off the radio. But I always go back. I have a certain loyalty to him. You see, I started listening to him in November 2000 -- right after the election. I was so mad, and so scared -- the Republicans are always so polite and I thought, surely they will just concede to the hard-ass hard-ball being played by Gore (actually Begala, Carvile and McAuliffe)(not to mention Daley!). I had to listen to all the people at work putting down Bush and laughing that he would be a pushover for Gore. Michael Savage was the ONLY one who said what I felt. Every evening, as I went home in my car, I'd listen to what he said. Sometimes quietly, sometimes crying, sometimes cheering, and sometimes doing what I call "Scream Along With Mike!" (for those old enough to remember "Sing Along with Mitch"!)

Especially here in the Bay Area, but I suspect all over the country, the liberal media made everyone feel like the liberal worldview was the ONLY worldview. If you dared to think, "But wait, that doesn't fit with my experience, or with common sense!" -- you were ignored, you were wrong, your experience was discounted.

Did you ever see the old movie "Gaslight" where Ingrid Bergman is being tormented by her evil husband (Claud Rains? Peter Lorre?). He wants her money and is trying to drive her crazy so he can have her committed. So he has someone go in the attic and make noises -- when Ingrid gets spooked and says "What was that???" he looks at her like she's crazy -- "I didn't hear anything dear, are you sure you're feeling all right?" She begins to doubt her own thoughts, even her own senses.

Those B---ds have been trying to "Gaslight" us for years. Thanks to Michael Savage (and Jim Robinson, and all you Freepers) now we KNOW we are not alone. We are not even a minority. We are a majority, and we won't be a Silent Majority anymore! We NEED Warriors like Savage. We NEED people to fight back! He is right, only a more savage nation will survive!
