EMBED

From the May 18 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:

SAVAGE: And yet here in America, I've had some people come to my aid. They see the bigger picture. They're not like [Bill] O'Reilly; they're not like Limbaugh, who's the biggest disappointment of all. Limbaugh has turned out to be the biggest phony of all of them, all of them. Amongst all of them, he is the biggest fraud. Rush Limbaugh is a fraud. When he was accused of the drug usage, I supported him. But that man is a one-way street. It's all about him. He's in it for nobody but himself.

        Savage wins this round. Hate to say it, but damn... Limpy just got his ass nailed by Number Three.

        Can't wait for Levin if he addresses this one. He absolutely HATES Savage and he cannot stand Rush being attacked.

          I think it's a safe bet that this is the one rightwinger who won't apologize to Rush...

            Perhaps they could settle all this fussing with some tag-team wrestling. Let's see....Weiner/Hannity vs. Limbaugh/Scarborough?

            Who likes who amongst the talkin' tough righties?

      Sounds like savage smells blood. Or he's just jealous that he is no longer considered the most horrible right winger voice on the air. But it's a close one.

          Won't happen. Mikey's not the apologizing type. Gotta hand it to him on that point... that point ONLY.

          Oh, he's scum. No question. But hearing him go after Limpy makes me laugh. I've wanted to see Limpy get his since he has been around so long unchallenged.

          I'm also going with "won't happen" but... I could see one of these non-apologies... "Out of Context" or "A great American who I've disagreed with" of some such nonsense. He won't APOLOGIZE, but he just might waffle a little.

          I hope he doesn't though. If these guys end up with a REAL feud, ONE of them will go down (and that'll fine no matter WHO it is!) or they BOTH will and they'll take the movement with them.

          The last remnant of the Reagan legacy (unifying the party despte the conflictinginterests of it's components) is about to be swept away.

          Well, let's see... It took him 18 years to recognize limpaugh as a fraud...

          I got $50 that says his apology will come right after the inevitable O'Really(?) Weiner boycott begins to affect him...

            Oh, Dude, if he think he can take on LIMBAUGH (and he CAN, like probably nobody else) O'RIELLY doesn't stand a chance. Plus: even Limbaugh acknowledged, in agreement with KEITH OLBERMANN, that Bill O'Rielly is the Ted Baxter of news.

        OMG I finally agree with something Savage had to say!!! LIMBAUGH A FRAUD IT'S ALL ABOUT HIM. HE'S IN IT FOR NOBODY BUT HIMSELF. It only took how many years for one of them to admit that?

        The misinformation is that Weiner secretly idolizes Limbaugh, and really doesn't think he's a fraud.

          "This misinformation is that Weiner secretly idolizes Limbuagh, and really doesn't think he's a fraud."

          Probably, but Limbaugh's ego took a massive hit today. Even with allergy season in high gear, a lot of Republicans breathed easier.

      I hate to rain on everybody's parade, but Savage attacks Limbaugh ("the golfer" as he calls him) on a regular basis...has for years. The diatribes are always ignored by Limbaugh who won't even acknowledge Savage's existence.

      Notice how Weiner said"when he was 'accused' of the drug usage".
      Weenie, he wasn't accused, he was addicted.

      Besides, Weenie is just faking this or he would have called Rush, VERMIN.

      The thing about Savage, even though he's a bomb thrower, and just outright kind of, no, not kind of, IS insane on many different levels, he's really quite smart. You can tell he's got some brains in his head by the way he talks, when he's not on a yelling tirade. I mean, regardless of what you get it in, a PhD isn't the easiest thing to come by.

      I'd take Savage in a Limbaugh vs Savage death match any old day. Mostly because old Limbaugh is way too overweight, and out of shape to really do anything.

        Yeah, but Rush could just eat him in one bite. Plus, with a full oxy load, Rush wouldn't feel any damage inflicted by Savageweiner.

        On the other hand, Savageweiner could spit some of his rabies foam into Rush's eye, thereby blinding him, and Rush might stumble and wind up on his back, struggling helplessly to turn over while he baked in the sun, eventually making Savageweiner the victor.
