>>>are you implying that Savage is a PhD? If so, Im shocked.

Be shocked. He has two Master's Degrees as well as a PhD (from Berkeley).

>>>Only people on amphetamines are crazy enough to find his abrasive exterior appealing.

I stand by what I originally wrote, look again:

"People who let Savage's abrasive exterior scare them away miss out on the wisdom he has to impart."

If you actually read what I wrote, I never said anything about finding Savage's abrasive exterior appealing. I'm sure some of Savage's listeners like the grit; but his mainstream appeal and national ratings success cannot be dismissed as schtick.

Savage listeners are like the first guy to crack open a pineapple--everyone before him missed out because the ugly exterior scared them off.

Look past the exterior. Y'know...don't judge a book by it's cover.

Dave S. sounds like a hollywood idiot. I doubt he will tone down his head-in-the-sand comments.

Weiner claims he was denied his "academic birthright" because of affirmative action. You decide if Weiner was more qualified than the man who got the job.
