      If his "8 to 10 million listeners" (Rush only claims to have six million) are angry, rude and obnoxious like MS, it is small loss to Britain.

      Spoiled brats lash out in anger when something is denied them. MS is no different.

        Most of his listeners couldn't even find England on a map. They're not going anywhere.

      It's the Queen's English, there is no king of England. How can conservatives spend money and travel if Obama is taxing them to death?

      Well Mike... since it is quite likely that 99% of your 8 to 10 million listeners are in the same boat as most of the rest of America... they can't afford to go to England....

      So you go right on ahead and boycott all you want.

      Just remember... when BillO called for a boycott of France when France told Bush to basically kiss off as it pertained to invading Iraq... the trade dollars to France via America actually went up many millions of dollars...

      So by all means, have at it 'hoss and help England out by calling for a boycott...

      I should point out that Brits aren't "beer-swilling". They have REAL beer unlike the mosquito pee sold in the US. Case in pint, Heather Ale - 5.6%, made with heather flowers and hops - delicious.

      8 to 10 million listeners my arse. I doubt the UK will miss the 15 or 20 Savage fans who might bother travelling outside the US.

        Whoops! Looks like during the upload, your internet tubes dropped some letters from the end of your comment.

        I'm sure you meant "... travelling outside their HOUSES."

        Frankly, while it's undoubtedly a rare occasion, the prospect of Savageweiner listeners loose out on the streets worries me too.

      Mikey, why get so teabaggyish about this? If you know that she is lying about you, be a man and ignore her. Most people ignore you for being a jerk.

      Shame on your Mikey. Remember, if you really want to get your nitwits to back you, call her a "low-life, beer-swilling VERMIN".
      What is this mutt crap?

      Capt....you are sooo correct. What is going to happen is that Mikeys' people will now hate the New England Patriots? They have no idea where New England is located, how the hell will they find England?

        Hey, I'm a NE Pats fan....wonder what The Savage Weiner thinks of a team called the PATRIOTS playinga regular season game in LONDON, ENGLAND this coming season? Is he going to call for a boycott of the Patriots and their Wembley opponents, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?

      Maybe it's on here but I just missed it cause of the new format but Dr. Weiner was threatening to sue the UK over his first amendment rights yesterday. That was pretty damn funny. What a genius.

      O'Reilly has far more listeners than Weiner, and when he called for a boycott of France, trade between the U.S. and France went up, despite O'Reilly's claims that the non-existant Paris Business Reviewsaid France lost "billions of dollars".

      I'm sure Britain is saying, "Um...okay. We don't need those w*nkers."

      Just curious? What did he do to deserve to be banned from a nation? His thoughts or beliefs dont align with those of some in the British Government? For this he is banned?

      I thought this website would promote freedom of speech and a forum for to express it in dialog.

      Sure, he is arogant, rude, and brash. But I know PLENTY of Britians who fit that mold, (look at any Ricky Hatton fan).

        Freedom of speech has nothing to do with it. The Constitution does not grant foreign visas. Visiting a foreign nation is a privilege, not a right.

        As far as why they did it, you can view their press release here.

        Since there are already "PLENTY of Britains who fit that mold", maybe the ban means that they're all stocked up and don't need another one.

      The guy with a phoney on the air name who threatens people with getting AIDS and he is "sensitive" about being not allowed to enter UK? What a loser. I doubt that they will lose any tourists.

          Yes. It's not published by the same non-people who don't publish the Paris Business Review that BillO loves to fabricate quotes from.

      I might be mistaken, but the 8-10 million figure is probably a composite of listeners for a specific time period(usually a week). The number of individuals listening therefore is far smaller.

        Amen. For someone who berates other people because of their name or how they appear, the "good doc" really has room to talk, or cry, or whine. I call for him to revert to his real last name and call his show what it really is, The Whiner Nation... or is that the Weener Nation? Sheesh

      Mikey must have a tummy ache because he keeps running repeats and excerpts of other right-wing whackos on his beer-swilling progam. I cannot believe this guy. Of all the people to claim that he is civil, this guy is the definition of bitter hatred. No big loss to England. And does anyone else wonder why Mikey Weiner is so sue-everyone-he-wants happy? Sheesh.

      May I offer alternate travel destinations to Mr. Savage? Somalia,
      Iraq, Afghanistan are all very desirable destination right now, so I say to Mr. Savage, show the beer-swilling Mutts we don't need them and go to one of the above-mentioned places on a vacation. And while you are at it, ask all your 8-10 million listeners to do the same.

      According to the London Business Review, the Silly Savage's boycott of travel to Great Britian has beeen a roaring success.

      Closely examine the demographics of his audience: Must be about the same as Ole BlunderRush and Sheer Insannity (ie, well over sixty years old). There is nothing wrong with that - I'm not far from there myself.

      However, is this a pool of potential world travelers?
