Michael Savage

[LL2]

Anyone listen to this guy?

http://michaelsavage.wnd.com/

I started to recently. He can be critical of the Republicans and Democrats. Like most talk show host he's full of himself to a certain extent, at the same time I think he's right on a lot.

What some of these guys--including Savage--lack is PRAGMATISM.

Follow their message and advice, and we will be ideologically pure, but perpetually, on the outside looking in. Several conservatives in this forum and others I've been in are the same way.

George W. Bush was not my first choice in 2000; McCain was not my first choice this year. However, PRAGMATICALLY SPEAKING, both of them gave us--good normal America-loving Americans--the best chance to win. Consider the alternatives--the extreme leftist anti-American pro-socialist alternatives--that obviously, Gore and Obama were, it would have been/is LUDICROUS to NOT support the Republican candidate.

The left and the leftist mainstream media have made an all out assault on the Bush record, pushing the bogus crap about how bad off we are, etc.

Well, I'm here to tell you--and I'd sure like to see some of your more ideologuish conservatives dispute it, WE WOULD BE A THOUSAND TIMES WORSE OFF WITH GORE, KERRY, OBAMA--any of these ........ sorry, I can't think of a better word than ASSHOLES ..... in office.

Issue #1--by a wide margin: preventing terrorism in America: The policies of any/all of these extreme leftists would have clearly left us WIDE OPEN for repeats of 9/11. The ........ ASSHOLES .......what else is there to call them? ........ have actively opposed ALL of the measures that have been so successful at protecting America--both in the area of interventionist/military strategies and in the area of internal security.

Issue #2--the Economy: The leftists have blatantly demagoguerd this issue, yet they, here too, have OPPOSED the very policies that have mitigated the glaring negative factor--the horrendous effects of 9/11. The simple fact is that with a Gore presidency and without the Bush tax cuts THIS COUNTRY WOULD HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO THIRD WORLD STATUS AFTER 9/11, and Gore the ........ there's that word again, ASSHOLE ....... would have reveled in that reduction of our lifestyle, pushing his sick anti-American socialist and wacko environmentalist agenda. I dare ANYBODY here to deny that--lame leftists OR good-hearted, but naive conservative idealists.

oops. Sorry for the double post. It was worth say twice, though.

I'm not a big Savage fan.

He's popular (#3 in Talk Radio after Rush and Sean Hannity), but he's too mean-spirited for me. He's got some guts and not afraid of confrontation, but lacks the humor of others to balance things off.

In general, I find that solid conservative hosts are quick to criticize either Democrats or Republicans. To them, Conservative ideology comes before party affiliation.

Savage has a long history and you can easily find info on him. He's got some good points, but I personally don't care much for his style.

Savage is very Pragmatic. Have you ever listened to them? He thinks both candidates aren't very good, however, he has stated over and over that when it comes to the choice it is a very easy one, vote for MCcain. He really disliked Obama and has a very good point that Obama is running to be the most important position in the United States however he would not be able to pass a background investigation to be in the FBI because of prior relationships with suspect characters.

Savage is my favorite radio personality because out of all of them hes the most real. And he just doesn't talk about politics either, he goes into everything in life and hes very insightful and knowledgeable; a lot of shit you can learn from.

Savage isn't conservative.

He's in love with himself and he lives in a paranoid fantasy world in which he is the holy vessel containing all Truth and Wisdom.

I consistently tune him out.

For that matter, I can barely stand Hannity for some of the same reasons, although he, at least, is philosophically a consistent conservative.

Dennis Miller is the most entertaining and fair-minded voice in talk radio.

Re: Michael Savage

He can be critical of the Republicans and Democrats.

ya, critical of the Republicans for being too left wing. Michael Savage is an extreme idealogue.

I pretty much agree..though I dont' find Miller entertaining at all...and I use to think he was a god.

I think Ms. Huffington hit the nail on the head when she warned him about becoming this generation's Sammy.

I guess comedians and humorists that swing too far away from center (wherever THAT is these days ) are gonna lose half their audience.

Jon Stewart doesn't do it for me, Colbert is a clone, and Bill Maher is a crude unfunny prick.

Leno holds the center as well as anyone in the arena of political humor.

I miss the Smothers Brothers.

I just dont' find him funny. I use to worship him, was a huge fan...and was in his corner when he got MNF...and still thought he deserved a longer shot.

Stewart: I think he is funny. He goes after both sides...and he hasn't been unafraid to have Newt, Mac, etc. on the show. But, i think his correspondents make the show.

Colbert: Clone? Of course he is...he is satirizing O'reilly. AFter awhile..the joke kinda wears thin....as does O'reilly.

Leno: I've always thought he was funny, though i was more of letterman guy...and am firmly in the O'brien camp.

Bravo!

Certainly no Edgar Bergen!

I listened to the guy for about 15 minutes while driving once. Seemed like a fucking wacko in that brief time.

I've heard of him, but not actually heard him. I don't think he's on down here. I'm glad to hear about the pragmatism thing, because it sounds like he might actually have some influence among certain types of conservatives who potentially could be drawn away from the bottom line: KEEP THE EXTREME LEFT OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE FOR THE GOOD OF AMERICA--and Obama is about as extreme left as they get.

Ok, I'll bite, explain to me how Savage is not a conservative.

And talking about other guys, ole Glenn Beck is always entertaining to listen to when it comes to political commentary. And as for late night hosts, Craig Ferguson is by far the best one. The dude comes up with so much wit off the top of his head, he just out shines the other hosts. And this is coming from a huge Obrien fan.
