Savage: "The government stole my manhood from me, or tried to, to give the job to an unqualified minority or an unqualified woman"

During the October 7 broadcast of his nationally syndicatedradio show, Michael Savage said: "When things failed in my life, I pickedmyself up by my bootstraps. The government stole my manhood from me, or triedto, to give the job to an unqualified minority or an unqualified woman. Theyalmost ripped my heart out, but instead of rolling over and dying, I came back,and here I am."

 if you claimed they stole your brain, that might be a little more believable.  and how do you know the mccain campaign is lying?  beside their lips moving.  their ad is running.

Is he talking about the Dean-ship he didn't get because he was woefully underqualified for that position? The tired old poor old me song and dance. Yeah, he's so downtrodden that he has a PhD, a successful radio show, and gets paid some decent money to rant and rave about how hard it is to be a white man in the United States these days. What a rube.

Just yell "White Power" and get on with it, Savage. There's no point in whining and bitching about how "your manfood was stolen" if you don't proclaim your so-called "white prite". If there now is such a thing.

Well, to jack-booted Klansmen like Savage, I guess there is.

Michael Savage is a great man.

Language, borders, culture

Divesersity is Perversity  = Affirmatibve Action

It's truly a shame that no one stole his manhood before this low-life was able to reproduce. His hatred has been passed to the next generation.....

The government stole my manhood from me, or tried to..

Ah, so that's what happened.

Why does Weiner keep forgetting to mention that he was trying to become the Dean of the School of Joirnaism at U/Cal and the person who beat him out for the job actually HAD a PhD in the subject?

A PhD in Nutrition ain't the same, Mikey...Weiner sounds like thw wackos on the JTF site

Yeah, but that guy was BLACK, so it HAD to be affirmative action because otherwise, how would that other guy get the job in front of him? No "uppity" black man is smarter than Savage by God.

Posted by mescal in reply to magnolialover

The truth is, Mags, that Weiner was beaten out for the job by another white man, making his claims about being a victom of Affirmative Action more than a little puzzling.

I thought these guys hated government? So why are they always trying to get govt. jobs?

Kind of like they always talk trash about San Francisco (Hannity, BOR, you name em) but never miss a chance to go there and complain about it in person.

Hey, Savageweiner?  Look down...

See that?  That IS your manhood.  Or at least, what's left of it.

Now, ask yourself: Why in the world would the government want that?

Why would ANYONE want that?  I think it's a safe bet that his own hand falls asleep......

Stole his manhood?

I heard he used to give it away or make equal trades with other men.

Allen:

After speaking to you on the phone about how nice the black-white thing is in mountain villages in Fiji, I walked downstairs to the school courtyard, where a little-known black brother looks at me, takes my hand gently, we do some old-world Lower East Side finger tricks, and he peacefully kisses the back of my hand—I do the same for his hand. I told him about our brief talk, and he says, "I must have felt the vibes."

If an entity as impotent as the US government stole your manhood, then perhaps you really never had it to begin with, Mr. Savage.

Posted by mrhebert74

I, on the other hand, got a job based on my parents' relationships with people who worked for my employer, despite an applicant pool that included numerous women and minorities who were just as qualified as me. And let me tell you people: It makes me feel like a MAN.

I suppose if he had any musical abilities, he'd singing his rants. The white spoiled richman's blues.

Pathetic.  Just pathertic.  Savage whiner he is.

The lack of manhood explains so much of the Savage mystique.

Posted by Col. Harlan Sanders in reply to ufleirx

For you numbskulls who don't understand a simple metaphor, SavageWeiner is only using his manhood as a symbol of a government so small it could be drowned in a shot glass.

His art is wasted on you liberal philistines.

Just wait till we get our art recycling pogroms under way!

C'mon Mike - you gave away your humanhood when you put on the dopey costume, stopped talking, and started to bark, yap yap yap.

"The government stole my manhood from me, or triedto, to give the job to an unqualified minority or an unqualified woman."

Wow!!!

Was he channeling Romney, Huckerbee or Guilliani?

People need to pressure Savage to release the lyrics to his song, "White Man." He copyrighted it, but never published it. Alternatively, someone who lives in or near D.C. could go to the US Copyright Office and look it up ... Aren't you just dying to know what he wrote? And since when does anyoine have a "birthright" to a particular job? Savage wrote about his "birthright" being stolen from him in one of his books, referring to the journalism school deanship. He figured he was qualified because at the time he had been on radio for two years.

Maybe he was qualified, maybe he wasn't "as" qualified as someone else...maybe they weren't "as" qualified as him. How would you guys know exactly? Either way it is how he sees it...his opinion...he still picked up from there and became a successful radio show host and a best selling writer....sounds like what most people do when they fail...they get back up and try again and make it another way or in a different way....Or some just shrivel up and hope the gov't will pay their wellfare:)
