'Liberalism is not a political position, it is a mental disorder-Michael Savage

Wow, this guy's nuts.

I just went over to WOKV.com, and found this:

Yes, Michael Savage is the guy who coined the phrase "Compassionate Conservative" and then had the guts to sue George W. Bush for stealing it!

Then I went over to MichaelSavage.com, and found this:

Afghanistan Extreme radical Fundamentalist Muslim terrorist
groups & non-Muslim Osama bin Laden heads a terrorist group
called Al Quada (The Souce) whose headquarters were in
Afghanistan.

So Osama bin Laden is not a Muslim, and heads a terrorist group called The Souce? OK...

He is Muslim (fundamentalist, but Muslim) and it's The Base.

This guy seems to be an incredibly poor representative of conservatism.

 

This is only my opinion, but the fact that this guy probably has a double-digit (millions) audience really terrifies me.

V-03

 

I'll stick to listening to Tom Leykis.

 

I haven't heard of this guy, and I think people should keep listening to Rush, Hannity, and that Ingram lady. I also listen to NPR and PRI, but that is what I call entertainment.

 

(nevermind)

 

nothin' wrong with listenin' to NPR and PRI. i listen to those stations all the time. NPR and PRI rock!

just out of curiosity, i was checkin up on savage and listening in on one of his shows. i couldn't stand more than 30 minutes of him. he is far worse and far more extreme than michael moore. savage is a friggin' nut! enough said!

cheers!

 

Why does this Savage guy deserve a thread? It's not like there's any shortage of right-wing nuts out there

 

I love listening to the "Savage Nation." Unfortunately, this time of year, the local NBA team is on the station that carries Michael. I can listen on nights when they have no game.

 

Liberalism is idealism.

 

Listen to Savage from 7-10est here

or

Here

 

I want to pit Mike Savage against Dan Savage in a death match. My money is on Dan Savage.

 

I do despise it when people refer to liberalism as idealism. There is nothing idealistic about it whatsoever. I might as well make a statement like conservatism is fascism - one I know to be false, but is based on another ridiculous stereotype.

Michael Savage and Ann Coulter?

Ahh,

 

I want to pit Mike Savage against Dan Savage in a death match. My money is on Dan Savage.

Macho Man Randy Savage would own both of them.


Just from what I've read in this thread I'd guess that this guy is a blowhard who has found his own hook to garner an audience.

 

POLUNIS:

Nazism claimed to be National Socialism, but it wasn't based on socialist ideas. Its name is very misleading; the Nazi's were of the far right, rather than the left.

Nazism kind of embodied a lot of things from either 'side,' and some things from neither. It was made mostly of far-right things like racism, elimination of minorities, gender discrimination, a 'paternal state' (more in a moment), rigid nationalism, a strong military and imperialism.

It had one or two things from the far left, too, like using the workers to achieve its ideals, but mostly only preached of left-wing things, without implementing them.

There were also some things from neither 'side' - most especially totalitarianism. Classical conservatives believed in a paternal state, in which law and order is maintained by the authority, but resisted totalitarianism as an infringement of personal rights. Neo-conservatism tends to be more about a 'night watchman' state; it is small, efficient and generally stays out of peoples lives, except when to protect their freedoms. Classical socialism (Marxism, Communism) is based upon the idea of no state, whereas more modern socialism (Social Democracy) advocates a state much the same as the neo-conservative model, with slightly more interference when protecting peoples rights and managing the economy. As you can see, none of the above is totalitarian.

In general, Nazism can be best defined as a fascist, which means:

- Racism,
- Nationalism,
- Belief in a strong military,
- and a charismatic leader,
- Organic national growth,
- Imperialism,
- A society based on geographic proximity,
- Totalitarianism,
- belief in history and traditional values, such as gender roles and 'heroes' (you'll notice that all totalitarian regimes tend to drag out martyrs from the past (people who often would have found it extremely be distasteful to be used as a representative of them (think Marx in Russia; Marx himself would have hated the USSR, but they still glorified him)).

- Scarlet.

 

Savage is jewish, so I doubt he is a nazi.

 

Savage now has a television show on MSNBC.

Despite the protests of militant gay groups, whom Savage labeled as "Nazi Bastards", the show garnered a .5 rating.

It wasn't as good as his radio show, but it was better than all of the other crap on MSNBC.

 

I saw most of that show.

While I didn't like his style (I could tell that he wasn't really that comfortable in front of the camera), some of his topics were interesting.

I liked that fact that he kept showing the people that Saddam had killed, and that he tried to get footage of people jumping out of the WTC.

I might watch again.

Latre!

 

the funny thing about the extreams of the political spectrum, is they all start bending the same way. both sides want exactly the samething they just do it for different reasons.

I am a fairly conservative person, but Micheal Savage is a little to off the deep end. if we all went no holds barred like he does notthing would ever get done. rahter most people need to be rational and open to compromise.

And both sides have people who are like that. i cna almost honestly compare Moore and Savage. but i cant scince i cant stand to listen to any of the, talk for over five minutes.

 

Despite the protests of militant gay groups, whom Savage labeled as 'Nazi Bastards'..."

How the hell can Savage associate gays with Nazis? The Nazis (well, Hitler anyways) HATED gays.

 

He is not saying they are literally Nazi Party members, he is saying the tactics they are using are Nazi/Gastapo-like.

 

I like Savage. I disagree with a few of his ideas, but I agree with him a lot.
Yes, he's unbalanced. But aren't we all?


'Liberalism is not a political position, it is a mental disorder

It's true!

Actually, he was labelling them "Nazi Bastards" as they was trying to stop his show from being on the air. It didn't have anything to do with the fact they were gay.

 

This association of "conservative" and "racist" annoys me to no end -- particularly because it's not based in reality.

Compare Limbaugh and Buckley to race-baiting liberals like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. There's no comparison.

 

I wouldn't say that liberalism is as tight a knit unit at conservativism, so just because Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are "liberals" doesn't mean that liberal is as Jesse and Al do.

Secondly, the Macho Man Randy Savage would kill Michael Savage. Steel Cage death match...Salthough Mike should take the win in the first match, to set up for the Macho Man win at the PPV.

 

Dude, is your signature Truth. Beauty. Freedom. LOVE?

Are you SURE you're a conservative?
