      There noting funny about the way you spoke about Autsim, jackass! And that's coming from someone who writes an Autism Comic Strip! So it's not that I'm just overly sensitive about it or something like that!
      (www.myspace.com/on_the_spectrum if anyone's interested. All of the Mike Savagae and Dennis Leary posts have been taken down though.)
      Why is it that conservatives always try to claim HUMOR as a defense of their verbal incontinence. They aren't funny, have no wit, and their constantly saying "I was kidding" PROOVES this point.

      Michael Savage is a sick, sick man. And anyone who finds his particular brand of mental illness entertaining is also very, very sick themselves.

        I don't find any sort of mental illness entertaining but I find this specimen's constant whining and wailing over something that really shouldn't matter to said specimen who basically hates himself and the world to be extremely entertaining.

          Oh, I too find the sad spectacle entertaining myself, but then... I'll admit that I'm a little sick! I'm refering more to anyone who can listen to this jerk and say "Right on! You tell it!" and not be saying that in a sarcastic way.

        Wow...reading these posts is truly entertaining. You liberals simply want to ban anyone who disagrees with your views.

        Well, you know what: I listen to Michael Savage every day and I am not sick, nor stupid, nor demented in any way. I will grant you that some of the things the man says can be grating and shocking. But the UK has absolutely no right to ban the man from its shores simply because some matronly, whiny, ineffective bureaucrat thinks his speech foments hatred.

        Is calling for a stop to illegal immigration fomenting hatred?
        Is pointing out the fact that most terrorists happen to be Muslim fomenting hatred?
        Is calling for this administration to get its fiscal house in order and stop pushing the country to bankruptcy fomenting hatred?

        I guess that, to liberals like all of you, anything that opposes your agenda is fomenting hatred. You are such hypocrites: you claim to be tolerant and open to other points of view, but in reality you are some of the most intolerant and inflexible ideologues on the planet.

        Now go ahead and ban me from your silly board...in fact, I am sure this post will not even make it onto the Media Matters website. But then again, you liberals excel at censorship.

      Not one act of violence associated with his show? Excuse me, remember that nutbag who shot up a church in Knoxville because of their "liberal" views? He had all sorts of rightwing literature including Savages books. The guy forments hatred daily. I'd like to hear what Savages' views on Cat Stevens getting banned from entering the US are. I bet he supports it because he's a muslim.

      Whiny, homophobic, hypocritical miscreant. That's all you are, whiny-boy. Britain did the right thing by banning your pathetic ass from their soil.

      Stings, doesn't it? You have called for people to be banned from this country and now you wanna play the whiny poor me victim card when you get your crap flung right back at you. I hope you enjoy it. And go ahead and sue, tough guy. You have no standing in a UK court and your record here in US courts isn't exactly stellar so once again you're just blowing smoke as usual.

      The US banned Cat Stevens, of all people, from entering here. We also banned several Muslim scholars from entering the country to speak at some of our most prestigious universities, making a mere ripple in the media. Now this disgusting opportunist, who appeals only to the worst element of our society, gets dis-invited from Britain and it's news?

      Michael WeinerSavage does foment hatred. He always has, always will. Didn't he tell the gay man to go catch AIDS and die? Didn't that get him banned from television. And what about gay people? Ha! He hates anyone not like himself. And "keeping his good name"? He cares enough about his good name that he changed it to Savage because he doesn't want to be a Weener or a Whiner.

      Yeah, him pulling the "kidding" card is pretty bizarre. As an experiment, listen to the clip and pretend he's doing standup; see if you crack a smile. I guess he didn't have "you're taking me out of context" to work with since they played the clip. And then he pulls the "My brother was disabled" ploy. One wonders why their father didn't just say "Don't sit there crying and screaming, idiot" to his brother, which according to Weiner solves any problems a child might have.

        These scumbags do it ALL. THE. TIME. And then when we call them out on it they say, "You liberals just don't have a sense of humor."

        No. You guys just suck at it. Or you're lying. And you suck at that too.

      Michael Savage has a very interesting radio show that I listen for the sake of amusement. He's really smart and well read. The sad part is that he thinks he's over smart. He is the most arrogant fool ever to have lived. His arrogance will eat him alive.
      If you listen carefully he controls the radio show, selects only those whom he wants to have a discourse and is very clever in manipulating the audience. If you listen to him the first time and are ignorant about the topic he'll make you belive in awe his point of view. Soon you'll realize how phony he is. That is if you have an open mind and can think for your self.
