        Reich-wingers are always thumping their chest with macho bravado until someone dares criticize them and then they fall to the ground in the fetal position.

      Its so interesting.....Savage, O'Reilly, Beck, Hannity, Limbaugh have all gotten away with not being caught on their mis-facts and mis-information and let me add the propaganda(lies) of the day also now that someone is watching their misdeeds they act like the victim. How sad these little boys (they are not men) are crying and complaining that there are people out there with journalistic integrity. And now we have "Kill Bill" O'Reilly on the loose giving the thumbs up to "real" murder. Shame on you boys.

        They don't scare the educated adults over here (in America) any less. They're nut-bags. They're biggest complaint about Bush & Cheney was that they weren't conservtaive enough! They're a national embarrassment.

      When does Mikey file a lawsuit against MMFA? He seems to like doing that to people, even though he doesn't believe in trial lawyers, and things like that.

      How is a non government website trying to destroy Mikey? It's not. He only has himself to blame for this words, not MMFA.

        Oooh, but they "take him out of context", which, like O'Reilly, he takes to mean "reproduce his exact statements, even when they're things he might later have to pretend he never said".

      Well he has a point. After all, the only reason people feared the Gestapo was because they were such a powerful website.

      Um Mikey...

      MMfA simply takes your words and actions in full detail and context and does nothing more than exposes your vile nasty hate speech to others beyond your audience...

      If that is to be equated with trying to destroy you... well... perhaps you should consider what it is you speak.

        Not so well but I heard he has recently retained Hstybuff to represent him. So watch out-the bottom of the toilet is the limit now.

      No way! Media Matters rarely finds anything of yours worth clipping.
      Wait, that's the real problem---Mike's upset with his lack of coverage here.

      Notice how the Silly Savage speaks about himself in the third person. He really is off the deep end.

      The Wienerdog is clearly insane. I dont know how that can be seriously denied. I love the way these screechmonkeys spend hours a day demonizing anyone who disagrees with them then go ballistic when they face any criticism at all. The hypocrisy and capacity for self delusion is just astonishing and the snivelling is pathetic

      Media Matters didn't choose you, Weiner. You chose you when you CHOSE to be the lying, bigoted, racist, wacko nutjob Right-Wing, Neo-Fascist Nazi you are who spouts lie after lie and racist and bigoted rant after racist and bigoted rant.

      If you'd never become the hate-monger you are, and didn't spew your filth and lies on a daily basis, Media Matters wouldn't even know your name...lol

      In many societies, there is the archetype of the Divisive Bully. The Divisive Bully forces the question of who has power in a situation. The Bully wants the power, but can only gain it if others adopt the Bully's narrative.

      That is, the story the Bully tells is the source of his power. He can only gain power by telling a story that gives him power. Without the narrative, there is no context for acts of bullying violence (physical or rhetorical), and the violence, seen without this context, is abhorrent.

      So the Bully has to tell the story over and over, in order to make sure the context is understood, and thus the Bully can maintain his or her power.

      This is why MMA is so frustrating to these right-wing blowhards. They take the relatively safe, power-gaining context away from the violent rhetoric, and show it in the light of humanity. In this new context, even the Bully (in this case Savage) understands the failings of what they have said. This puts them in a tender moment of powerlessness, a situation which would be an opportunity for growth if it were to happen within a context of moral development.

      But since it's not, Bullies like Savage lash out and call people names, thus attempting to create more artificial context in which to self-justify.

        Very nice model for a valuable comment. Thoughtful and true so far as I can tell. I have listened to the fellow for years and it is always about the ego serving narrative for Savage. He is quite good at wedding emerging events to his grand narrative in a manner that resonates powerfully for some.
        He seems to blend his mental madness and evil calculation in a way that others find appealing and genuine. But that last bit is just one mans opinion.
