      As a white male I have to say I would like to lose Michael Savage.

      Y'know, I've been a white male for 44+ years, and I've never once encountered this horrific oppression the reich-wing press is constantly telling me I face.

      I suspect that, just as in reich-wing-speak, "activist judge" means judge who declines to be activist in the prescribed conservative way, and "racist" means black or latino who's insufficiently deferential to whites, especially racist ones, "oppressed white male" means one who doesn't get to oppress others as much as he'd like.

      And this is why they don't want you in the UK. You are on the same list as Louis Farrakhan. Being black or white does not make hate speech acceptable. It does not get any better when you sound like you are inciting violence. The UK don't want someone who will cause racially motivated violence coming in from another country.

      Yep, he's talking about the white trailer trash guy who's spent too much time sucking down his Bud while watching Fixed Noise and yellin' at his old lady and the brats to shut up so he can hear. These are the same guys that Becky is stirring up, too. He is exactly right, there is an ugly side to the lower class white male, I have probably seen it more than he has. He sounds a bit scared and he should be, because they'll come after him (an over-educated, wealthy Jew) just as quickly as they'll go after other groups they hate. Hopefully, these guys will wake up and realize how they're being played before something bad happens. Being poor and ignorant isn't nearly as bad as taking advantage of someone who is poor and ignorant. That means you Savage, and you, Rush, and you, too Becky!

        Take a look back at Southern history, 19th century. It is chilling when you realize that the game FOX, the GOP and con groups are using is very similar to the Southern plantation elite used fear of slaves (and later freed blacks) to keep the white yeoman farmers and other lower class whites in check. This kept the lower folks busy hating while the elite kept a firm grip on power.

          Yes, I know. I grew up outside of the South, but in many, many ways, the people I grew up around were very much like "hillbillies." They can be decent and hard working, but there can be some real craziness there, too and currently, the crazy is being drummed up with a vengence.

          That is why I do not understand why white people in the south are against labor unions.Labor unions freed white people in the south from slavery.I wish more would understand,there is no difference in a white share cropper and a black slave.We are both in the same boat with a hole in it.Therefore we need to be paddling,and bailing water,so we can safely get to shore

            You're right and I really like your imagery, we do need to work together or we will surely sink together. I don't understand why so many people are opposed to unions either. My family's life changed dramatically when my father got a union trucking job. It was a stretch, but I went to college, and that changed my whole life completely from the small town girl in Oregon.

            Labor unions freed people every where. I was born and raised on an Indian Reservation of mostly farmers and ranchers. The majority of those farmers and ranchers were also union members, teamsters, welders, oilers, iron workers etc. They took those union jobs when ever they could get them, even if it meant being away from home. To work on dams, bridges, roads & other construction. It allowed most of us to live a very nice, middle class lifestyle, instead of the very meager existence we would of had other wise. It also meant the shop keepers and other small business did well because the locals could afford to do business with them, instead of going off the reservation to find better deals. Believe me they are now grateful to those union pensions, since most farmers and ranchers have seen that lifestyle nearly disappear.

            On another note...where I'm from, when I was growing up and the generation before me, we just did not hear Indian or White before someones name. Every one loved and looked after each others children, white, Indian or mixed. Every one pitched in and helped with branding, putting up hay, looking after each others farms and ranches, if the men were away on union jobs or military, regardless of race. It just did not matter, everyone was paddling and bailing water together, to stay safe and happy. It's the last few years that I hear people pointing out race, showing resentment etc. It's as if we have digressed. Limbaugh, Savage, Beck and the likes are partly to blame for that.

      When Savage says "if this keeps up" he's referring to the abolition of slavery.

      (oh, and the troll who'll no doubt thumbs downs this post don't care for black folk)

      Fellow Matterers,

      Mr. Savage states people that come into into America wanting everyone to speak Spanish or act Muslim? Spanish speaking people were already here. How about Chinese or Japanese, Russian, or Hebrew? He sites no study, nor have I seen any media spots supporting any of his claims. Michale Savage is inciting riot(s). He covers himself well, by mentioning we are a nation of many cultures, and many races. How can any group be destroying another? Cowboys have rodeo, and dance halls have dance. If the, "white male," is still the majority, what is the problem? We are America, and have our freedom, but Mr. Savage wants serfdom.

      Best wishes,
      Ronin Kannushi.

        Savage, BTW is ashamed of his real name, is an idiot. White man came to America and did their best to do away with the many languages that were already spoken here and forced everyone to speak English. Little children torn from their parents and forced to go to schools "to learn to be white."

        Please Mr. Weiner, educate us on what White man is capable of.

      So what's Weiner complaining about? According to Me and Bobby McGee, that means the white male is finally free, to use "just another word"...

      This still amazes me that this guy is aloud to spew this deluded crap and gets well paid in the process. His corse and hateful skreed is what's corroding the culture of this country. Cage fighting is big because people like his son who owns Rockstar energy drink plow tons of money into it for promotion. Gee you think that is a coincidence that he uses cage fighting as an example? Think again. This guy knows no bounds.

      What Savage also fails to realize is that the culture in America changes. The American culture in the 1870s is different than that in the 1900s, than that in the 1920s, the 1950s, the 1990s...

      Heck, the culture of 2030 will be vastly different than that of today. Either embrace it or get left behind...

      By nothing does he mean 90% of CEO jobs, 90% of upper military officer positions, 90% of airline pilot jobs, the vast majority of elected government posts or 99.9% NASCAR driver slots? Wanna trade places with any other ethnic group for a while? I'll trade places with white males any day of the week.

        The Muslims I have met in America usually seem a bit reluctant to proselytize so much thanks in part to guys like Mike Weiner and their generalized hate.

      Michael Savage has been erronously operating under the illusion of inclusion. The white supremacist web sites I visit would take his millions, do away with him and deliver the money to the "cause". Keep talking Michael...then you will be one-less idiot to contend with.

      "Just watch Extreme Fighting to see what the white male is capable of"?

      I hate to drop this bomb on you, Savage, but while it is true that the U.S. has held the most championships in the UFC, the current Light Heavyweight Champ is Brazilian. The current Middleweight Champ is Brazilian. The current Welterweight Champ is Canadian. The current Lightweight and Heavyweight Champs ARE American, but let's be clear here.

      All Extreme Fighters are NOT American!

        ROFL -- the white male proves his toughness by fighting in a cage on cable TV?

        That's almost like saying, "just watch the WWE to see what the white male is capable of" . . .

      What the eminent doctor fails to understand is that many of those white males will be fighting against him and his followers if, God forbid, that day ever comes.

      Not all white males are as filled with hate and guilt as the leading right-wing talking heads, who are very good at pointing out what others should do, as long as it's others doing the heavy lifting.
