If he believes all that he says about Muslims and their countries and their governments... why does he advocate policies and a political party that would seek to make us MORE LIKE THEM?

   I don't think advocating 'borders/language/culture' is the same as promoting Islam terrorism. I'll say he supports legal immigration, and strict enforcement of illegal entry rules and guidelines. Does that make us more like them? Well, perhaps you have a point. Because if you try to gain entry into ANY other nation you will need authorization by their border patrol.

And Savage wants us to put our troops "on the streets of America"... That goes beyond just a strict immigration policy.

   And have you ever walked down the streets of any major city during the evening/night hours? Why not put military on the streets? There are more murders happening daily on American streets than happen to American troops yearly in Iraq. You claim a need/want to leave Iraq and stop the deaths of our troops, but you seem to be saying the murders of our American public isn't so bad so why try stopping that?

As a matter of fact I do walk the streets of a major city at night and, yes, my city has had troops patrolling the streets due to a catastrophic disaster. However, except under extraordinary emergency circumstances the purpose and mission of the U.S. military is not one of policing American streets, as you and Savage suggest.  

However, except under extraordinary emergency circumstances the purpose and mission of the U.S. military is not one of policing American streets, as you and Savage suggest.

And not even then. That is the precise reason for posse comitatus.

You need to go live in a police state, phil. You might feel safer. The rest of us, we'll live here in America, the land of the free and the home of the brave.

I've walked the streets of America (New York, Newark, Philadelphia, Bridgeport, New Haven) after dark for more than fifty-nine years. I've never had a problem, I've never been afraid.

Where the hell do you live?

There are more murders happening daily on American streets than happen to American troops yearly in Iraq. - philib

BS.  The most recent statistics I could find gave a total of about 52 homicides a day in the US.  American soldiers in Iraq have been dying at a rate of more than 750 per year.

Is honesty unnecessary when spitting out a talking point?

In the large majority of homicides the victim and the killer know each other.  Troops on the streets would have no effect on those.

Troops on the streets is many steps closer to a police state than most people, even most conservatives, would want to take.  You've gone off the deep end there.

   Ok, I was just making a point, didn't think I needed to be exact. Let's change the numbers. More murders happened on American streets per week than US troops being killed in Iraq all of this year. More murders occur per month (by far) than any given year in Iraq.

Philib wrote:

>>Ok, I was just making a point, didn't think I needed to be exact.

Really? You thought you could use a statistic that was wrong and still make your point? The rest of your argument is silly. Yes, more people die in American streets because there are *300 million* people in America, and something like 1/300th (or less) as many soldiers in Iraq. You need to look at the rate of deaths in relation to the whole population, and when you do, you'll find that the death rate of American soldiers far exceeds that of people back home. (That's not even to mention comparing the number of Iraqi civilians who die in relation to Americans.) 

Philib, you're clearly not  a bright 5th grader.  If you accept the correction you were given: a toll of ~ 50 murders per day in the USA versus 750 deaths per year in Iraq  and if you know that there are 7 days in a week, you should have concluded that it would take just over a fortnight for the numbers to be about equal. FYI, a fortnight is equal to two weeks and 14 x 50 = 700.  With the exception of February, half a month would have been a better time frame to compare murders in the good old USA to the annual American soldier deaths in Iraq which, according to the latest stat is 4601, or just over 760 per annum.  Of course, you didn't bother to take into account the other casualties: the number of soldiers wounded in Iraq is now well in excess of 30,000.  Perhaps you need some advanced math course to figure to average that over the almost 6 years that Dubya has been putting our troops in harm's way.  (If you can't handle the products and quotients of two and three digit numbers, you must be freaking out over trying to contemplate a nine digit integer which is the daily cost of this war.  Sample problem: divide $10,000,000,000--our monthly cost--by ~30 a nice round average month.  Don't bother you little head about the repeating decimal.)

Do yourself a favor: go back to elementary school.

"Philib, you're clearly not  a bright 5th grader."

   Hey, that's good.  Did you know everyone can see your nose hairs, since you have your nose stuck so far up in the air? Obviously, you're another liberal. You're all alike.

No, we only look alike because we're all so much brighter then you, you can't see the difference between us.

"we're all so much brighter then you, "

   I think that should be "than you". Check with writer (he's a professional). Oh yeah...you're much brighter then me!  ;)

Why not put military on the streets?

Well, how about this? Most Americans are pretty much opposed to living in a Soviet-style Police State

Why not put military on the streets?

If you'd prefer living in a police state, Phil, then I suggest you pack your things and move to either Cuba or North Korea.

  Or, if I want to live in socialist Russia or communist China I could vote for O'bama.

Don't be an idiot.  Hu = Putin = Obama?  From a RW POV that's practially flattery.

   O'bama is the most socialist senator in the senate. Name ONE senator who is farther left than O'bama.

Well, you have probably screamed about Ted Kennedy for decades. How quickly the dullards forget their old targets.

   Kennedy is the only examply you can come up with?  Wow! You guys really do live in denial.

Senators Sanders, Feingold, Boxer, Inouye, Brown, Akaka, Menendez, Whitehouse, Kohl, Klobuchar, Tester, Dodd, Durbin, Harkin, Levin, Lautenberg and Murray are all arguably more liberal than senator Obama. Is that good enough for you?   

"are all arguably more liberal than senator Obama."

   I ask for one senator who IS farther left than O'bama, and all you can do is list some who might be.

I said arguably because some of them are more liberal on some issues and less on others, and which issues are most important depends on ones point of view. Do you know who Feingold and Sanders are? They are both undeniably more liberal. If you want to be difficult instead of being honest and forthright go right ahead, you just make yourself look unreasonable. All of those senators have overall more liberal records than Obama, but you just can't admit you are wrong so you parse and mince, but you never manage to prove anything.

Or any Muslim country.

Where would we be getting these troops that you'd like to see patrolling our streets?

The troop fairy?

Well, for startes, we could bring back the draft!  Then, we could raise taxes to pay the soldiers' salaries.

As long as we draft the trolls first.

No , draft the young college Republicans first. I'm sure there so tired of their mission of taking care of things over here. That's the reason they give for not volunteering for Iraq. Perhaps if they were drafted and actually had to put their arse on the line, things like whether or not Bunny Skylar is going to next weeks brunch will no longer be most important thing to them. It's  high time for those who are blessed with so much to start making some damn sacrifices around here. That includes the sanctimonious goons like Hannity, O'Reilly, Limbaugh, and Boortz. Can anyone guess how much sacrifice those idiots have made for this nation? War is great as long as some other poor shlub is getting shot at.

I absolutely can't stand those guys and these college republicans with their Ward Cleaver haircuts while they wave the flag as others do the dying. It makes me sick.   

I agree Chris.

You've probably seen this video but it shows exactly what you describe about the young Republicans.

Thanks Worrier.

Phil

And you're not serving in Iraq because...?

Hold on there. Doing the dirty work for me?

Explain who's been supporting the war in Iraq and who now suggests we put troops on the streets of our cities.

Let us know how much dirty work you've done yourself Phil.

Where and when did you serve?

"Explain who's been supporting the war in Iraq"

  I have. 

"and who now suggests we put troops on the streets of our cities."

  You are.

   So which part are you confused with? That I support our troops or that you want a police state? Well, consider I am a conservative and that means I would support the troops (it's well known liberals do not). You are a liberal which would mean you support a government control in every aspect of life (it's also well known conservatives do not). How simple can it get?

"Why not put military on the streets? There are more murders happening daily on American streets than happen to American troops yearly in Iraq. You claim a need/want to leave Iraq and stop the deaths of our troops, but you seem to be saying the murders of our American public isn't so bad so why try stopping that?"

The above quote by you is what started this discussion. I asked you where are we going to get the troops you want to have patrolling our streets.

Please explain where I said I wanted a police state? I responded to your post suggesting we turn America into a police state.

irony: "And Savage wants us to put our troops "on the streets of America"... That goes beyond just a strict immigration policy." 

   It isn't unexpected that you take a response to another post and twist it into something it isn't...you are the typical liberal. Try reading BEFORE my post. I'm not the one suggesting troops on American streets...Savage is! I didn't start this little mini-topic about something no one is talking about. Perhaps your age and the drug use is clouding your thought patterns. If you're one of the ilk who claim and or fear that McCain is too old to be president because of his age, then I suggest you stop posting as if you have knowledge. You're probably the same age as McCain.

 

"Where and when did you serve?"

  My military record is public knowledge. I have told you several times where/when I served. If your days of druggin while in Nam make your memory short that is not my problem.

Typical of you right-wing, war hawk, religious zealots to defame someone else's service as you sit out another war.

  That's funny, you get drafted into one war and claim to be a veteran of every one. How many have YOU sat out? Do you even remember the one you were in? It was a long time ago and everyone knows all you Nam vets did was do drugs and kill babies. Well, that's what I hear from all the liberals I know. Are you going to tell us some war stories? Come on, don't be rude and claim experience without sharing.

Your incoherent ramblings are priceless. I made no such claim. You twist your own words and positions and then accuse everyone else of doing it to you.

You become more like Dr. Weiner with each response that you make. 

That won't work. Trolls are too lazy to do any work, dirty or otherwise. They certainly don't expend any energy thinking.

Phil

Savage is a hater, remember what he said in 2003 on MSNBC , telling a caller he hopes he dies of AIDS.

Savage is the preferred reading of mass murderers everywhere.

1) Intolerance of other religions

2) Against women's equality and rights

3) Intolerant of homosexuals

4) Intolerant of anything they consider "indecent" in books/moves/etc...

5) No protections for the accused, under the rule of law

6) Agenda of putting more religion in the government, and taking away the liberties (and sometime the liberty) of those that don't hold the same opinion.  (IOW - forcing their superstitions onto the rest of us.)

All polices of Islamic Goverments, also all policies of the Republican party and American Conservatism in general.

So I ask you again: IF THEY ARE SO BAD, WHY DO YOU WANT US TO BE MORE LIKE THEM?!

You can't take the curse off it just because you change the name.  The policies of the Christian Right would make us more like them.  No way to debate that.  And as for terrorism?  They spport the Iraq War don't they?  How is that not terrorism?  [Iraq] had no weapons, had not violated any UN sanctions, and made no agressive actions.  Yet we violated their soverignty and toppled the government, killing 100's of 1000's of civilians in the process.  And why?  For oil?  For a religious crusade?  If not, then why?  We didn't stand to gain in any other way, and we've embolded Iran, and bogged down our military.  Both history and current events are against you, my friend.

well, now the mission is "to start a revolution of democracy doers , taking on the evil doers over there, instead of having to confront evil at the local hockey rink"

I may have slightly misquoted that, but you get the idea. Mainly, my friend, if a tough as nails Republican starts a war it is a galactic battle of good vs. evil, otherwise it is a doomed to fail nation building effort, which the US must never do.

I don't think

That's just about the only completely true statement you've ever posted at MMFA, Phil!!!!

:-)

"What is the societal benefit of bringing in throwbacks...

Is that like wetbacks?

Michael Savage, just a real lovely man.  <sarcasm>

  Liberals are kind hearted and fair to everyone.  <sarcasm>

We try...and we certainly don't regard it as a character flaw.

   I think you need to try harder. <not sarcasm>

  suefeld:  "Savage is a hater"   she said moments after saying she tries, too.  So, obviously, the sarcasm slipped right past both of you.

Phil,

How would you describe Savage's rhetoric?

I can't do it without using the word "hateful."

Savage IS a hater.  The man is FULL of hate.  You've got to be deaf, stupid or insane not to realize this.

And liberals DO try to make it fair for everyone.  How you can say otherwise defies logic.  You of the party of the few who wish to dominate the many. 

"Savage IS a hater.  The man is FULL of hate.  You've got to be deaf, stupid or insane not to realize this.    And liberals DO try to make it fair for everyone."

   Yes, you are correct. Liberals DO try to hate as much as everyone else you claim to be haters. And, you're very good at it. Somewhat better than Savage, only Savage knows what he's talking about. You don't.

Philib wrote:

Really? Savage knows what he is talking about? I didn't know that one could just spew racism and still be thought of as someone who knows what he is talking about.  

" I didn't know that one could just spew racism and still be thought of as someone who knows what he is talking about."

   2 words: Jeremiah Wright

Two more words: Ignorant bigot.

You pick 15 seconds out of 20+ years of sermons, are ignorant of the rest, yet you have the idiotic gall to suggest that Wright "just spews racism?"

When did you first realize you couldn't think logically and decided to attempt to cover it with know-nothing bluster?

Right, the esteemed revverend Wright must have not taken his anti-depressants that morining, and his true colors he briefly showed.

Really, he's a great guy, he just has an ackward tendency to spew (yes i said it) anti-white racist lunacy only SOME of the time. So its really quite okay!!

You a sad, strange little man.

I'm just curious, ol phil. Take savage's rants calling liberals the worst names in the book, add in limbaugh, o'reilly, hannity, coulter, maulkin, schussel, rodgers, beck and the other uncounted minions of the right, blast it on the air every day, why do you think we should treat right wingers with any respect when we get a facefull of disdain every single day?

"why do you think we should treat right wingers with any respect when we get a facefull of disdain every single day?"

   Because the so-many of you who claim to be Christian are taught to forgive by Jesus. For those of you who don't follow the teachings of Jesus Christ will not forgive, and I would expect nothing less of you.

Then how do you respond to the fact that many of these right wing tools who are throwing out the invective also claim to be christian? Are you giving them a pass, because I sure haven't seen you condemn them.

I believe in forgiveness but only if someone shows earnest remorse and asks for forgiveness. 

But I will show forgiveness:

Philib, I forgive you for all the times you have lied, smeared, and tried to derail a thread.

Go and sin no more, my son.

or daughter

"I believe in forgiveness but only if someone shows earnest remorse and asks for forgiveness. "

   You are being very judgemental of that "someone". At least Jesus doesn't demand 'works' for forgiveness, like you do. I've always been told by liberals that judgeing others is wrong. "Judge not, lest you be judged" they always tell me. How can you demand "earnest remorse" for your forgiveness when Jesus does not demand that? Are you better than God?

Phillib wrote:

>>At least Jesus doesn't demand 'works' for forgiveness, like you do. 

And how would you even now what Jesus wanted? The only words we supposedly have from Jesus (the New Testament) was written long after his death, by adherents to a certain sect. Further, the New Testament is really a series of fragments pieced together, and re-written to fit certain ideologies. But maybe you have a special time machine that can go back and actually listen to Jesus?

Beyond that, "earnest remorse" is the least you should expect from someone if you want to extend forgiveness to them.  

"The only words we supposedly have from Jesus (the New Testament) was written long after his death, by adherents to a certain sect."

   Well, I guess you are not being talked about, then. As I said, for those who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ would forgive. Those (like you) who don't follow His teachings would not forgive and, like I said, I would expect nothing less from you.

"I've always been told by liberals that judgeing (sic) others is wrong. 'judge not, lest you be judged' they always tell me." - Philib

Uh... you do realize that the words that you just quoted are those of Jesus, don't you?

Or is that just your way of acknowledging that Jesus Christ was a liberal?

Get off your high horse Philib. You come here and say all liberals are the same and then tell us we are judgmental. You accuse liberals of being hateful, yet you obviously hate liberals with a passion. Look, there are plenty of liberals who are hypocrites, who are judgmental and who are hateful, I've met quite a few. But don't sit there and act like those behaviors subside solely on the left when conservatives are consistently as bad, and in my opinion, often times worse. The truth is, we are human and we are all flawed. We all can be hypocritical and judgmental. So just quit acting like your s**t don't stink, 'cause I can smell it from here.

"Look, there are plenty of liberals who are hypocrites, who are judgmental and who are hateful, I've met quite a few."

   I know there are, and I said so. Why are you mad at me, again?  Trust me, I don't hate the liberal, I hate the ideals of liberalism. Which corrupts so much worse than any other system in America.

   BTW, I never claimed liberals are the only haters. I point out that while you sit on YOUR high horse and complain about Savage for being hateful you ignore the plank in your own eye.

I'm not mad at you, I just think it rings a little hollow when you behave like a huge hypocrite and then proceed to bash liberals who are nowhere near as bad as you are. I don't really care what you think about liberal ideology. I think it is healthy and good that we don't all think the same. I am willing to have an honest debate about philosophy with conservatives, but most I have met only want to throw out insults and call me a commie or some such thing. You are also like that, and it's sad.

Phil,

I forgive Savage and I pray that his heart empties of the hate he seems to thrive upon, but that still makes his rhetoric over the top, bigoted uncalled for, and downright nasty.

There is a special place in hell for all you pharosies, taking the Lord's name in vain for political and personal game.  Jerry Falwell is already these.  It will be LOADED with these 'holier-than-thou' republicans who falsely claim to be christians and the 'party of god/jesus.'  Using religion to support a greedy, capalist agenda that screws over poor and working peple is blasphemous saclidge.  Jesus would more likely thwack these people with his staff to punnish them for their pride then he would be to vote for them.  So repent or you will be down there with them!

(And Liberals do not by and large do what they due becuase thet are chritsian.  If they are, then they are, but that is incosenquential.  Liberals do what they do (and believe as the do) because they are GOOD.  And that's not the same thing - just look at the republicans!)

Jesus has a place for those who prey.

Have you ever heard fundamentalist Christians try to explain away the very hippie-ish Book of Matthew?

It's hilarious. 

 

I agree, Philib.  They sure don't make Jews like Jesus anymore...

C'mon folks, no need to pile on this little flatulence named PHILIB.  As noted earlier, the opinions of those who can't handle 2 and 3 digit numbers is easily discounted.  His arguments resemble those of his guru--the one who recently noted that McCain failed to meet the over 100% accuracy test for truth.  I believe that guru goes by the name of Turdblossom. Philib is but an afterwhiff in his wake.

   Do you have eyes? Your nose is still stuck so far up in the air, nobody can tell. Try looking down (at the little people) once in a while. You may see there is more to life than golf and sailing.

Hmm...I believe someone once said "we're going to get those terrorists....now watch this drive."  Who was that?  Hmmmm....I believe the same person also swore off golf to support the troops, then played golf less than a month later...Man, I can't remember his name....

At least that guy kept his head down during his drive so no one could see his nose hair. Of course, with your head that far down, you can't see the "little people" either, unless you look sideways at the caddie.

For those of you who don't follow the teachings of Jesus Christ will not forgive, and I would expect nothing less of you.

Jesus's Dad also said we shouldn't lie. You not only think that the GOP is above the law, you apparently think they're above the Ten Commandments.

   That's where you're wrong, wingnut. I believe in personal accountability. Which would include the GOP and liberals and conservatives and anyone else. When you can find a statement that says I think the GOP is above the law, please provide it. Otherwise, you'll find me pointing out the hypocrisy of the liberal for highlighting conservative failures as if a liberal never does them.

I try and be, unless i am treated unfairly or I see others treated unfairly. I call anyone out on that regardless of Liberal or Conservative. I have even been attacked on here because sometimes I am critical of "Liberals" on MSNBC. 

Awww, come on! There's no liberals on MSNBC, remember? They all got canned? <sarcasm>

True Sue, you have put up with alot and Survived. You were right on about some on MSNBC this past year, and even survived attacks on here by some of the real hateful posters who accused you of having multiple names.

It is very ironic because one of those people has been outed as being Ellie and other names in the past.

Anyway Phil is completely off his rocker, how can anyone other than a hateful person support and defend Michael Savage? The man is the ultimate slimeball in American radio today. The fact that he has an audience is not only scary but insulting and I have called on in the past a boycott of advertisers. My local station WOR in NY I have written too and I have had my friends do the same, sadly greed over respect.

 

"sadly greed over respect."

   Or, it could be honesty over demonization. Liberals demonize everyone who doesn't fall lock-step into their demand criteria and you call conservatives bad.

Philib wrote:

You use the word "liberal" like you were trained by the neocons. "Liberal" is not a some other race, it's a word used to describe one's political or social leanings as it relates to a "center". So stop saying "liberals" this and "liberals" that...what the hell are you talking about? It's going to be hard to ever get these false dichotomies from our political dialogue. People here will say they are "liberal" but they don't mean what you mean.

You use the word "liberal" like you were trained by the neocons. "Liberal" is not a some other race, it's a word used to describe one's political or social leanings as it relates to a "center".

Yes, well put.  I would add that the so-called Liberals of today are mostly Centrists given how far right (or radical) the Right has moved.  And not only are "Liberals " not a foreign race, they are patriotic Americans, not a foreign force who's established a beachhead here, biding their time for a great attack upon America or "Conservatives"; or every day scheming to bring down the country on top of their own heads as well as everyone else's.

Michael Savage, just a real lovely man. 

For me to POOP ON!!!!!

You can put lipstick on a crazed pit bull and it's still a crazed pit bull...  ;>)

SAVAGE: "...a nation that is as evolved as America..."

MMfA: "The Savage Nation reaches at least 8.25 million listeners each week, according to Talkers Magazine, making it one of the most listened-to talk radio shows in the nation, behind only The Rush Limbaugh Show and The Sean Hannity Show."

One of these statements cannot be the truth.  it defies Darwin.

The MMfA statement would seem implausible.  The fact that it isn't depresses me...

That's 1.75 million per day, multiplied by five days.

Not so big, considering how many stations he's on.

I've heard him inflate this number to 20,000,000, during a soliloquoy on how amazing he is.  Michael Weiner is such a f*#king disgusting narcissist, I find it hard to look past any of his delusional ravings to even begin to pick apart the substance of his rants, most of the time. 

It's like picking corn out of your own poop, the day after a carne asada, corn-on-the-cob marathon:  listening to him makes me feel gross. Yet. I. Can't. Resist.  He's like "The Girls Next Door", in this regard, only for mentally retarded bigots who listened to a Dostoyevski novel on tape once.   

Michael Savage asked, "Why would a nation that is as evolved as America, and as liberal as America is socially, want to bring in throwbacks who are living in the 15th century?"

And I ask why would a nation that is as evolved as America want to have its airwaves polluted with the lies and hatred spewed by the likes of Michael Weiner?  He's a throwback to the Neanderthals.

AH come on.  Why insult Neanderthals?

   Sure, you can ask that. But, you still ignore the main question, which concerns bringing in people who believe in honor-killings, hanging homosexuals, stoning adulterers and cutting hands off thieves. WHY haven't you addressed that part of his statement??

  Let me guess...because you are afraid to!! Typical liberal

I used to live in a city with a large Muslim population, and I had many friends at work who were Muslim. They were all very sweet people who left their countries to flee the very things you speak of. That's not to say there weren't cultural differences which bred some small amount of conflict, but that isn't uncommon with new immigrants. You act as if every Muslim is a terrorist who wants to institute sharia law, and that is simply not true. Furthermore, I find it interesting that people like you and Savage, who disdain the same things as fundamentalist Muslims, have such a hatred for them. It seems to me as if you would be natural allies.

Savage uses very violent language towards gay people, and I do not doubt that if he had any power other than being a whiny subpar radio host he would use it to subjugate those different from him in similar ways to that of those who impose sharia law.

"You act as if every Muslim is a terrorist who wants to institute sharia law, "

   No, I do not. But, I don't live in denial, like you, who thinks there are none.

When did I say there were none? You don't know what I think. I am only going by the impression you give from what you've said, but in order for you to "win" an argument you have to make stuff up.

This coming from a Christofascist who I'm sure pickets the funerals of dead American soldiers. "Because the US Army are a bunch of liberals! A bunch of Pat Tillmans and John Kerrys bitching about purple hearts! That's why I support BLACKWATER instead!" Right, Hitler-Savage? Seriously, read "Mein Kampf" and then read one of Savage's books - and replace "Jew" with "Muslim". Tell me if you find ANY difference.

What are American ideals??? What does an American look like? What church do they

go to??...please somebody tell me...i need to conform...

I would by no means by this statement think it would change anyone's mind who thinks that Savage is a hater......but......

 Savage proclaims to love America...in turn wanting to promote the protection of our borders, our language, and culture.  The culture in America is indeed a melting pot of people.  But just 50-60years ago this country looked and acting nothing like what we see today.  Savage is from that time when America was different.......America has always been accepting of people....people who want to work hard "ask not what my country can do for me, but what can I do for my country'!

 But now we see an America given over to compromise....Compromised values being the number one issue why you can now see such vulgarities on tv...you name it it's on prime time.

 Some would say..."I want to taste the fruit"....well now you see the results of tasting fruits no one should....so Savage says he's sick of a decaying society.....on this one point he sees how we are allowing people from countries that primarily hate America into our country.  Not all those people are bad, but it is foolish to think that ALL those people mean well....just look at the example of the terrorists from 9/11....were they here to promote America and further our culture and ways of life...or destroy it!

 Just food for thought that maybe savage, who is brutal and harsh, just might actually LOVE America and want our country to survive.

I'm sure Savage LOVES America.  He just happens to be a moron who thinks he knows what's best for the country, and is consistently wrong.  He is not inherently evil, just misguided.

...or maybe he really is evil?

Charles-

I also agree that vulgar language on television is the key values issue of our time.  You really hit the nail on the head, there. 

Savage should vote for John McCain, he'll clean up the airwaves!

He actually endorsed McCain a few months ago with an article praising Bush on his site, entitled “Bush’s Legacy: The Greatest American President?” - so much for that faux Bush-bashing he's been swinging around before Senator Obama became the Democratic nominee. A few excerpts from the article:

"George W. Bush may be remembered as the greatest American president. America was on the verge of boiling over with anger at one liberal decision after another. Bush has many failings, but when it comes to the core issues of our civilization, he does the right thing. [...] You have Obama, a leftist socialist who would give us another gun-grabbing Ginsburg on the court, or McCain, who would appoint a conservative like Bush did."

How I long to hear Mikey's head explode when Obama wins on Election Day.

Ah, yes, I remember the time before Bush.  Why were we all so angry back then?  I just remember it bubbling over and saying "enough with this peace and economic prosperity!  I just can't take it anymore!"

   Yeah, tell that to the hundreds of Americans who were killed by terrorist actions during Clinton's administration. Clinton's peaceful response was to bomb Bosnia for weeks, killing thousands more innocent women, children. Oh yeah, those were such peaceful prosperous times. It always helps when you keep your head in the sand, that way you don't see what is really going on in the world. You ignored the danger of terrorists then, and you deny the danger of terrorists now. All you seem to think about is your own personal comfort. Typical liberal

right on Savage! He is someone who speaks about what most Americans talk about with their families in private. The Paul Revere of our time.

"...what most Americans talk about with their families in private."

If the family happens to be named Himler, Göring or Goebbels.

I also agree with Kevin Franks.  Michael Savage is just like the Pope, in that he can never be wrong.  In fact, I believe Michael Savage is next in line for Pope!  He truly is a benevolent and handsome man.

kvnfranks, the only "American" families that talk like that in private are members of the klan or ariyan (sp?) nation. Those are not "most Americans". 

The image of Savage on a horse does have an appeal. Maybe the Colonel can lend him one.

Hey! You cropped the picture.

I can only see Savage's ears.

And we can't see his other end at all.

Just as long as he (the Col.) doesn't include a polo mallet in the deal.

My comments are more broad than just cursing on tv or things of that ilk......the society is indeed waaaaaayyyy more progressive than it was back in the 1950's......now not to say that there wasn't any subversive culture back then either...just read "On The Road", one of my favorite books.  But the subversive culture was not THE CULTURE in America. 

 The Culture in America today is the same culture in Sodom & Gomorrah from the Old Testiment.....it is disgusting!

Savage has said time and time again he doesn't care if you are Muslim, Christian, Jewish, or whatever...but if you are in America, Love America for what it provides you...opportunity and freedom....what Savage is railing against is those people who come here and stick there nose in the air against America and want America to bend over backwards to cater to them....now not all these types are terrorists...but they sure as heck shouldn't be in a country they themselves hate.  Now these haters are extremists...and not the norm.  But these people are out there....just look at some of the illegal and legals here in this country from Mexico...they parade in the streets for protest burning American flags and tell everyone to shove it if we don't like it. 

 Now is that who you guys want in America...such nice and caring people who want nothing but good..right?

 The Culture in America today is the same culture in that compares America to Sodom & Gomorrah from the Old Testiment.....it is disgusting!

Savage has said time and time again he doesn't care if you are Muslim, Christian, Jewish, or whatever...but if you are in America, Love America for what it provides you...opportunity and freedom....what Savage should be railing against is those people who are already here and stick there nose in the air against America and want America to bend over backwards to cater to them....now not all these types are bigots...but they sure as heck shouldn't be in a country they themselves hate.  Now these haters are extremists...and not the norm.  But these people are out there....just look at some of the neonazis and skinheads here in this country from Alabama...they parade in the streets for protest burning American flags and tell everyone to shove it if we don't like it. 

 Now is that who you guys want in America...such nice and caring people who want nothing but good..right?

"....just look at some of the neonazis and skinheads here in this country from Alabama..."

   I don't think you achieved what you wanted to. All you did was to reinforce what CPA was saying. He clearly said that Savage does not like those who get here then complain because we don't conform to their own standards. And, yes, CPA included the skinheads and nazi's in his statement. And your bigoted rant against Alabama should include every state in America, because if you know anything about those groups, they live everywhere.

CPA5, Savage says a lot of things---often contradictory.  He gets people on his side who are bewildered by the GOP's anti common-man governance and then he gulls you into still voting for the same people when the elections roll around.

"then he gulls you into still voting for the same people when the elections roll around."

   Look at it from our point of view. I'm a conservative (very conservative), I will vote for someone who stands for my main concerns. I see 2 choices; O'bama and McCain. Will O'bama give me fair judges who won't create law instead of judging law? Will O'bama promise to make abortion (as a form of birth control) harder to get? Will O'bama try to win the war on terrorism? Now, I ask the same questions of McCain and I get 3 different answers. Which would you vote for?

   So, it's not like we have much choice. He doesn't "gull" anyone when you only have the choice between a socialist and a conservative. When there are 2 or 3 middle of the road candidates also in the mix then your statement could be true. Not when there are no choices but the 2 extremes.

I don’t get the concern over abortion.  It’s such a DISASTER to bring a life into this cold cruel world that’s either unwanted or can’t be cared for.  If we had a non-atomized, ethnically/religiously/culturally homogenous village-like society it would be different as there’d be more natural concern for one another.

As to the “war on terrorism”, you gotta use cops, not soldiers.  But even if real wars worked on it, it’s just too expensive for this country to use its military.  It used to be in past centuries that you could just go in and break everything and kill or enslave everyone and steal all their stuff and the war might even pay for itself.  But now we gotta fix what we break and pay for extraordinarily expensive weapon systems to minimize casualties, not to mention the graft and the for-profit support services and the mercenaries.  It would far better to just take the attitude “Oh well, we’ll just have to accept the occasional hit and keep a stiff upper lip rather than let them bankrupt us.”
