Savage to Media Matters: Stop stalking me!
On March 5, Media Matters for America received the following email from radio host Michael Savage:
From: ****************@aol.com
Sent: Monday, March 05, 2007 5:55 PM
To: *******@mediamatters.org
Cc: *****@****.com
Subject: Re: Savage continued attacks on Etheridge & HollywoodIf you ever harass me again I will have you prosecuted under California's anti-stalking legislation. This indicates malice and intent to harm on the part of media matters.
The email was sent in response to a Media Matters email forwarding an item posted earlier that day. Michael Savage's email address is available on Bacon's.com to anyone with an account.
On the March 5 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, which aired at 6 p.m. ET, five minutes after the email was sent, Savage lashed out at "[t]hose scum-sucking vermin. Those left-wing rats" who he claimed "won't be happy until we're all on prayer rugs waiting to have our heads cut off." He continued: "You ought to be happy, you liberal SOBs, that I am only a talk-show host. You ought to thank God that I have no avariciousness in my soul. You ought to thank God that I'm not power mad like you liberals, because if I ever ran for office, I can guarantee you, you wouldn't be in business too long. I can guarantee you you'd be arrested for sedition within six months of my taking power. I'd have you people licking lead paint, what you did to this country."
As Media Matters for America has noted, Savage was signed by Hollywood's Creative Artists Agency (CAA) for "representation in all areas" -- including television and film -- but was reportedly dropped after Media Matters documented his comments attacking singer and CAA client Melissa Etheridge for thanking her wife during her Academy Awards acceptance speech. Savage also responded to Etheridge's speech by stating that homosexual marriage "makes me want to puke" and saying that married gay couples' raising of children amounts to "child abuse."
In the March 5 broadcast, Savage repeated his claim that "lesbian marriage" is "nauseating" and "disgusting," and he again asserted that it is "child abuse" for "lesbians who are married [to] rais[e] children." He also claimed that his comments are not homophobic: "What it is, from my point of view, is not homophobia at all. I don't fear lesbians who are married raising children. I have contempt for them."
On Savage's website, there is a poll that asks, "Should Michael Savage Run for the Presidency?" According to the site, there are more than 2.8 million "yes" votes. Savage has said that once he reaches 5 million, he will make a decision on whether or not to run.
The Savage Nation reaches more than 8 million listeners each week, according to Talkers Magazine, making it the third-most-listened-to talk radio show in the nation, behind only The Rush Limbaugh Show and The Sean Hannity Show.
From the March 5 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:
SAVAGE: Those scum-sucking vermin. Those left-wing rats, they won't be happy until we're all on prayer rugs waiting to have our heads cut off.
You ought to be happy, you liberal SOBs, that I am only a talk-show host. You ought to thank God that I have no avariciousness in my soul. You ought to thank God that I'm not power mad like you liberals, because if I ever ran for office, I can guarantee you, you wouldn't be in business too long. I can guarantee you you'd be arrested for sedition within six months of my taking power. I'd have you people licking lead paint, what you did to this country.
[...]
SAVAGE: There's a guy named Bill Maher, I don't know who he is, I know he's some kind of guy on television. He actually looks like P.T. Barnum, but he thinks he's smart. He doesn't make as much money as I do, by the way. He has a small show on HBO. He could never do talk radio. This is too tough a medium.
His standard format is to have six idiot lefties, and he invites one dummy conservative, and they all attack him, and he sits there like Mister Goofball. He called for Cheney's death, OK, and everyone knows that.
Apparently it's OK to call for the death of the vice president, but it's not OK to say that you find lesbian marriage disgusting and nauseating and it makes you want to puke. This shows you why liberalism is a mental disorder.
Apparently a death threat is not as bad as homo -- let's say homo -- it's not even homophobia. What it is, from my point of view, is not homophobia at all. I don't fear lesbians who are married raising children. I have contempt for them. I think it is child abuse. That's my personal opinion. And I guarantee you if you polled most Americans, they would say the exact same thing that I'm saying. If you polled most politicians they wouldn't, though. That's why we're in trouble in this country -- no truth, no justice, no hope.
The culture is imploding like Chernobyl. It is melting down like Chernobyl, the Pink Hand has melted the country down. The Pink Hand has melted the nation down.
The "Caesars of Hollywood" ? How can a Jew (Weiner) have such a problem with his own people and not have the balls to come out and say what he really means.
Stalking??? Media Matters may have more of a claim against his idiotic (and namecalling) rants.
Weiner doesn't have a chance. The alleged stalking has to fulfill a set of criteria, including this:
<> (2) As a result of that pattern of conduct, the plaintiff reasonably feared for his or her safety, or the safety of an immediate family member.
<>I don't see how printing Weiner's own hateful words toward others could possibly be construed as a threat against him.
<>Sorry, can't help saying this ... Weiner deserves a "wurst" person in the world award for his pathetic whining. :-)**MMFA SMEAR OR A PRANK??**
You cannot prove this is Michael Savage unless you show full headers with his IP address and trace it back to his aol subscription. You have not done this. Anyone can make a free aol email with MichaelSavage1955@aol.com and email you pretending to be him. This item is bogus.
Why don't you sue under California's anti-stalking legislation.
dont you wanttto be credible?
Read the article. MMFA says that Weiner's email address is available on bacons.com. I'm sure the techies at MMFA are smart enough to distinguish a real email from that address and a spoofed email.
<>Wow. This Weiner rant is an enormous barrel full of unusually fat, dim-witted fish. I'll take a shot at the most obvious one: Bill Maher did not call for Cheney's death.
Be careful, Weiner, or Maher will have you prosecuted under California's anti-stalking laws for that malicious lie.
He certainly did not call for Cheney's death. That little misinformative lie was being spun around yesterday to compare it to, or diffuse Coulter's slur......and is ridiculous. Agree.
Savage appears a little hysterical.
A little? And Noah built an ark because it was gonna rain a little.
I say everyone here go and vote for Savage to run for President. He won't win a major party primary. But in the meantime, he might have to give up his program due to equal time regulations. (Then again, he'd only have to do so if an equally qualified candidate demanded the same free air time. Not sure any other major candidates would be so equally unqualified.)
For the record, Rusty, I have never said a positive word about this guy. I think he's an embarrassmernt and a disgrace. I rank him even lower than Coulter although she's gaining on him. I just want to distance myself from his craziness.
I know you haven't, Bruce. Respeck.
Do you think "California's anti-stalking laws" will be Weiner's "FOX Security"?
We have your number and we know where you live!
Of course you havent Bruce. We may disagree with you but I doubt any liberal here thinks you anything but reasoned and reasonable. Its conservatives like you that keep me saying that the right isnt responsible for Coulter and Weiner. THEY have their own burdens to bear and you have no reason to shoulder them
Maher's an idiot. Not funny at all.
Bill Maher is an acquired taste. I certainly do not agree with him on everything, but he has the balls to say things others will not say. He is very funny actually, and his jokes on the dolt Bush are classic.
You are thinking of Dennis Miller
This is classic bully mentality.
This is classic Savage serving up a meal for his detractors, you fool!~ He knows this will start a thread, and looky here, there's a thread. He's playing you like the fools that you are!!
This is classic Savage serving up a meal for his detractors, you fool!~ He knows this will start a thread, and looky here, there's a thread. He's playing you like the fools that you are.
HAHAHAHA!!!!
Actually it is Media Matters plan to goad Weiner into bringing them up again and I bet it'll work.
Guy's lost it. Doesn't "stalking" involve... um... stalking?
.
"You ought to thank God that I have no avariciousness in my soul [sic] - because if I ever ran for office, I can guarantee you [sic] -you'd be arrested for sedition within six months of my taking power. I'd have you people licking lead paint, what you did to this country."
avariciousnessnounextreme greed for material wealth
So, if he were greedy he'd become president, arrest us for sedition and then make us lick lead paint so we could suffer horrible deaths? Is he really this stupid?
"Is he really this stupid?"
Yes.
As Atrios would say, this had been another edition of simple answers to simple questions.
What's the difference between avariciousness and averice?
nothing, really. It just means characterized by averice.
The suffix "-ous" turns a noun into an adjective, and "-ness" turns an adjective into a noun.
So he just strapped a bunch of attachments onto his word to make it look bigger.
Tick tock, tick tock, ...
That's the sound of the self-destruct timer on Dr. Weiner's ego.
Each day he slips further away from reality.
I'm not surprised that he has so many people saying they'd like him to run for the presidency, hell, I'd like to see him run myself.
He sure as hell isn't going to be taking any votes away from whichever pinko bastard that I throw my support behind, that's for sure.
His rants against gays remind me of the Chris Cooper character in American Beauty, right down to saying that they make him want to puke. We all remember what happened to him.
I'd like to say we all agree, but after yesterday, I'm not so sure. I think some of our opponents on the right have no frame of reference when it comes to movies, other than the "left Behind" series.
I mean who hasn't heard of "Some Like It Hot". I'd have assumed that everyone knew about it, but I was wrong.
I sat trying to respond to the guy, but just drew a blank. I was waiting for someone to say that it way funny, but not as funny as "Wild Hogs".
Besides the genuine derangement on display here, for a guy who "doesn't know who [Bill Maher] is", he seems to think he's got a complete dossier on his appearance, income, mental toughness, program format, and innermost thoughts. Why do these guys bluster and froth so? Is it the only way they can keep from folding like a map when someone looks at 'em funny?
"If you ever harass me again I will have you prosecuted under California's anti-stalking legislation. This indicates malice and intent to harm on the part of media matters."
Ahahahahaha....ooooohohohohoh. ahahahah. oh...oh...stop it stop it I cant breath....just stop for a second....AHAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAUAHAUAHAUHAAHAHAH...ok ok ...I am fine now.
Whew, I almost had a heart attack I was laughing so hard. You hear that everyone at MMFA? You all better stop posting Wienerman's exact words along with audio if you know what is good for you.
Oh man. The guy gets called out on malicious hate-speech and now he comes back and whines about it. I have a confession, Dr. Wiener is pretty entertaining. I know I am bad for thinking it, but does it get any better than this?
California's anti-stalking legislation - isn't that a liberal law? I thought Savage hated what the liberals did to this country, so why is he going to try to use laws he hates?
I'd love to see this jerk run for any office. And when people laugh him off the stage, who will he blame then? The added bonus would be that he'd have to give up his radio hate-a-thon.
Amazing. Weiner's the only person who could run for office and make Alan Keyes sound sane.
He could be like Strom Thurmond for a new millenium....
Strom Thurmond served his country in World War 2. What did you ever do?
Yes Strom racist jerk he was also served in WW2. So what is your point?
So he shouldn't be disrespected by left wing jerks who hate America. He put his life on the line for his country. If I remember correctly, he was also the first southern governor to sign a law banning lynching.
"If I remember correctly, he was also the first southern governor to sign a law banning lynching."
-----
Actually, the law was proposed by Harry S Truman, and Thurmond was dead-set against it. His opposition to civil-rights legislation was the major reason he left the Democratic Party and joined the Dixiecrats. But don't let facts get in the way of a good ignorant rant.
Thurmond ran for President in 1948 as the leader of the Segregationist Party. Serving in WWII doesn't absolve one of being a racist bigot.
Actually Thurmond had a man prosecuted for lynching in 1947 while governor of South Carolina.
Wow! That makes up for all the other racist things he did/said. Brilliant retort!
Rather the segragationist bigot should be supported by bigotted, ignorant, cowardly rightwing morons.
"Bigotted" is not a word. Thurmond changed his views over the years. He should be forgiven. I thought that liberals believed in forgiveness. They forgave Robert "KKK" Byrd.
Ah...but bigoted is. Oh wise one, you have alerted us all to the post with the extra consonant. We are forever in your debt.
Byrd's redemption was sincere and he backed it up with the stances he took. Thurmond did not.
Actually, Thurmond progressed on many issues. Thurmond even voted for the Martin Luther King holiday. That puts him to my left. I would have never voted for the holiday that took away Lincoln's and Washington's separate birthday celebrations. Michael Savage feels that same way as I do, and we certainly don't hate blacks.
I totally respect Thurmond. He killed Nazis in his forties when he didn't even have to serve. God bless him, warts and all.
Well, when you go to hell, say hello for him for me.
You'll probably be able to say 'hi' yourself. Judging from the way you judge others. Wait, do you even believe in heaven and/or hell?
Yeah, maybe he changed or maybe America changed and he thought it bad politically for him to oppose that legislation given his outright racist past. I dont remember the type of public and repeated appologies from Strom that came from Byrd. I dont remember him every saying he was WRONG for saying THIS:
"All the laws of Washington and all the bayonets of the Army cannot force the Negro into our homes, into our schools, our churches and our places of recreation and amusement."
Maybe you are right. Maybe not. However its ludicrous to think that just because he fought in a great war he is somehow above criticism. Therefore I am still looking for your original point. You seem to have misplaced it somewhere. I mean you have made several posts since then but I STILL dont see it.
How do you know that Byrd's change of heart was sincere? Can you read his mind?
yeah he was a real civil rights icon. Give me a break.
He wasn't a civil rights icon. He was imperfect. Then again, many current "civil rights" activists are a joke.
Yeah. Like Wayne LaPierre.
He was also served?
Nice grammar. I'm dealing with a lightweight.
Oh no! Someone misspelled something or misused grammar on a forum comment board on the internet! Get real. That criticism is used by 10 year olds.
Strom Thurmond also served his country in the Senate, but it doesn't absolve him of his racist past, and how he felt about black folks in general.
In your dreams moron. You are dealing with a poor typist who is too lazy to use the very useful preview function. I'll take you apart like a cheap watch unless you raise the level of your game from the ignorant propaganda parrot talking points you have regurgitated so far.
Bragging on yourself can be very convincing. You should try it sometime.
Being a moron troll is annoying you should try something ELSE some time
Wowwaaaaaaaaa......
so like dumbaya does, you surrender already. LOL!
"Strom Thurmond served his country in World War 2."
So did my grandfather and he thought Strom was a D**k.
What's your point? Racist A$$holes aren't allowed to serve their country?
"What it is, from my point of view, is not homophobia at all. I don't fear lesbians who are married raising children. I have contempt for them."
ho·mo·pho·bi·a <!--BOF_HEAD-->n. <!--EOF_HEAD--> <!--BOF_DEF-->
Sounds like homophobia to me...
Does Savage sound like he's coming a tad unhinged?
Guess all this attention from MMFA may have pushed this mentally unstable guy over the edge...to full blown certifiable.
Mikey as far as I'm concerned you are free to continue saying how much Etheridge sickens you. On the same token, MMFA can continue reporting that you're saying it.
That's not the definition of stalking.
Stop complaining...do you have any idea how lucky a no talent loudmouth like yourself is to have his own talk radio program?
Geez...
Jeter,Unfortunately there seems to be quite a niche for Savage’s brand of nasty political entertainment or whatever it is you call what he does. Let’s not forget that original gangster Limbaugh and we know Coulter sells millions of dollars worth of I hate Liberals books and she has rock star status in conservative political circles. There are a whole bunch of Savage-Coulter admirers and/or imitators out there. Most just act out in the comment sections of the political websites and blogs but many are actively honing their acts and they want in on some of that hate speak cash. I know you guys think I exaggerate the influence of these creeps but I don't think I do. These people are huge and replicating like bunny rabbits.
I wonder how big that niche is, Lynn.
Follow the Talkers link above - they say Savage has 8+ million cumes in a week.
What's a "cume"?
http://www.arbitron.com/radio_stations/tradeterms.htm
"Cume Persons The total number of different persons who tune to a radio station during the course of a daypart for at least five minutes."
I don't know a lot about the radio business, but my reading would be that if you tuned into a station Savage was on for 5 minutes at any time during his show, you are one of the 8 million.
I've lived in some small to mid-sized markets where news, weather, and traffic were at the top and bottom of the hour, and were only available on the local right-wing talk station. If I tuned in just once in a week to hear them on a station that carried Savage, and it was his time slot, would I be counted as one of his listeners?
I think the influence of these people has been oversold to the public.
Now that, was hilarious!
Wow
Savage is really insane, it is not an act. The man is totally nuts.
What's amazing is that Maher said this:
But I have zero doubt that if Dick Cheney was not in power, people wouldn’t be dying needlessly tomorrow.
I'm not quite sure how one goes from that to Maher wanting him dead. There are any number of ways that Cheney could not be in power right now, starting with him not staeling the 2000 election.
If you watched the show they were talking about the failed assasination attempt and how some were saying the wished the attempt was successful. It was not a vague reference by Maher, it was specific.
Specifically, the exchange went like this:
This does not express the wish that the assassination attempt was successful. It just doesn't. It may not express what you may consider the appropriate reverence towards Richard Bruce Cheney, but it does not come even close to calling for his death or celebrating those who do.
I am sure leatherdude knows this but trolls gotta do what trolls gotta do
And that's why you stay so on topic with all your comments? You DO know what troll means, right? Troll is as troll does.
A self evident truth. And sometimes they manage to pull people like me off topic, like this. In fact THAT is the point of being a troll, as you well know, I think it says so somewhere in your handbook
Let's be a little more honest with yourself...you're never on topic. Do you even know who is being talked about? No, I didn't think so. You're a troll
Not so I am often on topic. In fact its only when I follow trolls OFF topic that I am not on topic. You being a clear moron just dont have the comprehension to tell the difference
Maher: I’m just saying if he did die, other people, more people would live. That’s a fact.
If Ann Coulter had said that about a Democrat the loonie left here would be having a conniption fit.
Amazing how you can't see your own hypocrisy.
Predicting the future might be fun, but it's not very useful when making an argument.
Bill M comments were stupid IMO.
What I find interesting in all of this story is how the Right Wing Propaganda Network had to distort what Bill M actually said in an attempt to take the heat of Ann Coulter and her fa**ot comments.
But your not going to address that are you Taz?
It's amazing how Taz can't see her own hypocrisy.
I think taz is right. Because a lefty said this it's all 'innocence' when a righty says that, it suddenly is 'morally incomprehensible'. Ann did not say Edwards was gay, and Maher did not say he wished Cheney had been killed. So what's your complaint? I think it is that Ann 'insinuated' that Edwards was gay. But, you can't realize that Maher 'insinuated' that he wished Cheney was dead. Stop your whining about things that were not said. These are both situations that you have created somewhere in your mind out of nothing.
Funny - guys like him are the first ones calling for the politicos/police/judiciary to intervene on their behalf when the going gets tough, but if anyone else does, they're spineless, lazy, weak welfare loving big government liberals !!!
Oh, my God. I just can't stop laughing. Savage, I bow to you. You are indeed the master of the insane rant. What's really funny is I recall how one of his fans showed up here when MMFA was reporting on him a while back. The fan assured us how Michael would "crush" us. Other fans have assured us that Michael was too big a man to be bothered by fleas like us. Now he's spinning like an unbalanced washing machine and threatening to make us lick lead paint. This story alone has made my day worthwhile.
I must be the only one who has never heard his show.
That's funny, because you both spew the same hatred and rhetoric. You should apply to be his substitute host. How's your radio voice?
It's worth a listen, I'm sure you'd enjoy it.
"I must be the only one who has never heard his show"
I've never seen Savage and Ann Coulter in the same room at the same time...
Here's an old Salon article on Savage...very interesting.
http://archive.salon.com/news/feature/2003/03/05/savage/index.html
Check out the part about his 1983 novel...this might cast some light on his attitude toward gays.
Savage needs psychological counseling...
I mean, this is getting ridiculous. This colossal, putrid, stooge is absolutely unhinged.
Mikey, we're not stalking you. Believe me, our time is more valuable than that. Think of us as just another website notifying you when it's time to take your meds.
NO, but HE'S feeding you this stuff and laughing his ass off as you vent about what HE said.
Don't you get it yet?
Whining that he's gonna sue is "laughing his ass off"?
Ya. He won't sue anybody, and you know it. Why do you eat it up like candy?
Because Weiner exposing his foolishness is delicious.
Exposing his foolishness?
Is Dr. Weiner flashing his privates at us?
And what's with the Kernals earlier post? Did Dr. Weiner himself stop by and get bounced?
Weiner flashing his privates? Let's not get into minutiae.
What's all this talk about size? Who gives a rats-pecker?
Grow up.
It's because liberal women still believe that "this big" (holds 1st finger and thumb stretched apart) is 9 inches. And liberal men only have that much. The only ones focused on size are those without it. Ask any liberal what size shoe he wears, and I'll bet you get no answer above size 10! Besides, any time (every time) a liberal loses an arguement they change the subject. And, so it happened again.
He is a complete nut but how on earth does someone who is as hateful and homophobic as this clown get on so many stations and get 8 million listeners? That tells you something about some of the loonies in this country.
I thought lead paint was good for growing children and presumably liberals, too. Isn't a bunch of hoo-haw junk science that it is dangerisk?
What a wuss. Wiener - come on tuffy, who do you think you're intimidating?
How does Media Matters know that it was Savage who sent the email? It could have just been some kook.
It it was from Savage, it was from a kook.
Telling Savage what MMFA covered about his OWN comments is "stalking" him now?
What about threatening dissenters with arrest under some non-existent charge of "sedition" based in speech? Is that not harrassing?
Is this man completely insane or does he just peddle this insane crap to get wealthy?
Wow, looks like the Savage Weiner has finally achieved that last level of Full-on, certifiably, Bat-guano crazy that one can hit before they call in the nice people in the white coats to come with the tranq gun and the butterfly nets.
I say this sort of meltdown couldn't have happened to a nicer whack-job.
Conservatives DO believe in that. Whatever your religious beliefs are good for you. Its important to have faith and beleifs. It isnt as important that we see it the same way.
REALLY? You mean by Jesus standards. That would mean it would be ok if it was done by those WITHOUT SIN. Who exactly would qualify under those criteria? Take your time. It probably wont suprise you that I dont agree with your interpretation
Actually Jesus meant those who've committed the same sin. He may have not said it, but that's what he meant. Jesus did not eradicate the death penalty; he said that he came not to change the old law. His statement was against hypocrisy.
You not only can read minds of posters, but also of philosophers who've been dead and buried (ok, technically in a box) for 2000 years? That's genius. So, as long as you haven't committed the exact same sin, you're free to judge all you want? Brilliant. So were all the mob with stones in hand guilty of the same sin as the person they were stoning?
Good job, and what EVIDENCE would he have that were true? I mean I have used the term amazing mind reading powers many times but that would take the term amazing to all new levels
The Silly Savage uses aol? LOL!
He's never going to run for anything. When he was still on Hate Talk 560 KSFO (Mel-UM-nie Morgan's station) - where a fellow worker peed in his stupid leather hat - the station told him he could not talk over the President's State of the Union Address. There's a radical position.
Anyway, Savage went nuts talking about quitting his job because he couldn't do it, etc., etc. Pure bluff. He stayed on the air, next night he was back. Just like Sheer Insanity's ego is stroked when people tell him he should run for office - what a joke. Never happen.
Could you imagine either one of these guys lasting through an open press conference? They stay in their little electronic clubhouse (as ole BlunderRush's situation was beautifully described), safe and cozy, talking with friends (most of the time) then cutting off the mike and ranting on being so tough when someone disagrees with them.
A joke!
You' re right about Savage not running for anything. As much as I like Mike, he would get butchered if he ran. Yapping on the radio and running as a serious candidate are two completely different things.
Maher did say that it would have been good had Cheney been assassinated. Why doesn't his ad agency dump him? Why doesn't HBO dump him? I think that that is Savage's main point here. Liberals run Hollywood. There's a pinklist. Conservatives who speak out get punished. Liberals who say the most asinine things aren't held accountable. Please don't give me the "free speech" nonsense either. What Savage said about Etheridge was free speech, yet he got punished for it.
Cause he didn't say it troll. It's already been debunked. Please try to keep up.
No he didnt, that is an outright lie. I watched the program he never said any such thing. We GET that you are a Weinerdog worshipper. That alone puts your sanity in question. Weinerdog is absolutly insane, its that simple. I suggest you seek the help of a mental health professional immediatly, there may still be time to save YOUR sanity
Solon, you have to resort to insults because you have no argument and you're getting mad. You just called for Cheney's assassination (not "assasination," duh), btw. Wow!!!!!!!
Maher did put a positive spin on a hypothetical Cheney assassination, regardless of what anybody says. He's a prick. He should be fired. He's said far worse than anything that Savage has said. Maher thinks that child molestation is funny too. It's no wonder that he's never been married. Women are repulsed by him. Maher should be fired or at least dumped by his advertising agency. What a jackass!
Solon, learn to spell.
Hey when YOU stop with your insults about liberals I will be more circumspect with what I type. Yes I spell poorly, more often I TYPE poorly, I know how to spell assassination I even know the etymology of the word. Mahar didnt call for Cheneys assassination, that is a lie, I WATCHED the program. This has been covered already. Savage is insane and Mahar is a smart if smarmy political commentator. Not one of my favorites as he isnt really a liberal more of a left leaning libertarian but he is at least funny. He treats his conservatives guests with respect and really wants to hear what they have to say. His show is worth watching and dont hold your breath until its cancelled.
So, by your line of reasoning, advertisers and respresentatives should dump Ann Coulter because she calls for the the bombing of newspaper offices?
Or is it that we're just not allowed to spectulate the hypothetical demise of the vice president?
Let us know, because I would hate for you to be suckered into a hypocritical jump-ball call.
Snoopy, "phobia" originally meant having a fear, not having contempt. For instance, arachnophobia is a fear of spiders. It's not contempt for spiders.
Savage both fears homosexuals and has contempt for them. He's very clear about that.
Savage doesn't fear gays. Once again, he simply hates their evil agenda.
Wanting to marry and raise kids? Wow, that is evil. Viva Weiner!
That is true to an extent, but so what? Gay didn't mean Queer, but now it does. Savage doesn't want to accept the current definition? Too bad for him.
Phobia means having an aversion to something or other. Tight spaces, spiders, heights, what have you. When you use the word "homophobia" which Mr. Savage is, you get this definition, which is built on the psychological definition of phobia, same word, different meaning:
Phobia is a negative attitude towards certain categories of people or other things, used in an analogy with the medical usage of the term "phobia". Usually it is described as fear, dislike, disapproval, prejudice, hatred, discrimination, or hostility towards the object of the phobia.
In the case of Savage, it is most often homosexual people, and hence his homophobia. School is now out.
Maher's assertion is also incorrect, since Cheney is just the Vice President. He's not the commander-in-chief. His death wouldn't change anything.
It would do one definitely positive thing. It would make impeaching Bush that more palatable. President Pelosi wouldn't pardon Libby.
Wrong, Prag. If Cheney died, he'd be replaced. The new V.P. would be next in line to be President, not Piglosi. Bush isn't going to be impeached anyway. It's a pipe dream. Just focus on 2008.
The Speaker of the House IS the new VP. Observe.
Wrong. The President nominates a VP, who is then voted on by the Senate. Gerald Ford was not the Speaker of the House before becoming Vice President. Jeez, read the Constitution. You lose.
Um...with a Cheney absence the Congress could then push through impeachment leading to President Pelosi. Perchance to dream.
Actually the House votes to confirm as well. Your lack of education is unbelievable.
Piglosi would only become President if both the offices of the Presidency and Vice Presidency were vacated at the same time.

Aren't you the one who just castigated a poster for stooping to insults to make a point?
Hypocrite, heal thyself.
Glad you finally came to the realization everyone was already aware of and it only took you 3 posts!
Did you have fun re-reading the constitution?
Cheney has clearly been one of the biggest if not THE biggest proponent of this war based on lies. Without him telling George what to do, Dubya would be lost.
Yeah but Bush is so ignorant its very likely that Cheney is running things, THAT was the point
IF you assume Chimpy McShortbus has the intellectual capacity to run ANYTHING that would be true.
Politician, you know you can put more than one sentence in each post. It won't get you banned as fast, but would be easier to read...
Actually Savage is a genius. His I.Q. is about 160. He also has a Ph.D. and has written over twenty books. Savage would do his own press conferences as President. Yeah, he'd get tough with the liberal press. That would be enjoyable. It would be much more enjoyable than Bush's press secretaries getting beaten around every day. BTW, Savage just said that he's embarrassed at Bush's pathetic communication skills. SAVAGE JUST SAID THAT BUSH SHOULD RESIGN. Why doesn't Media Matters mention that? Why doesn't Media Matters mention issues on which it agrees with Savage? I think that Savage deserves credit for not Being a Bushbot.
I think Savage is posting here himself! Nobody could love this vermin this much.
Hi Michael,
We're not going to let up. We've obviously gotten under your skin as your rants prove. Making you upset makes us happy. Get used to it, as there's way more coming your way.
Another one that doesn't get it yet. Mike feeds you this crap about Media Matters "stalking him" and you eat it up like the lefty lemmings you are.
HILARIOUS!
Weiner supposedly has 8 million listeners. MMFA is small in comparison. His mentioning this site does way more for MMFA, then featuring him does for his ratings. Pretty simply really.
Yeah, but what good does it do? You got a bunch of morons complaining about morons calling each other morons. Great site. If any person randomly came to this site and read half of what you liberals say, it would scare them away, no wonder nobody joins. Savage, on the other hand, started with fewer listeners and now has over 8 million a week. Your jealousy just ooozes out of the corner of your collective mouths
I havent seen anything but abject stupidity in any of your posts. If you dont LIKE this place there are several million other websites you can complain about. We will try to struggle on and deal with the pain your loss will bring us
Actually, Savage claims his IQ is 179. But what do you expect from someone who got a doctorate in epidemiology and nutrition science? So, learn what makes you sick and then sell herbs to make you better. Quack! Quack!
Oh come on. I don't care how high he claims to have scored on an IQ test: he's not putting any of that brain power to good use on his show. I have no doubt that he puts thought and consideration into what he says on his show, but only inasmuch as he calculates how to produce maximum ratings by catering to the fantasies of the lowest common denominator.
And Savage's credentials as an author don't impress me. Trained monkeys can write books. The question isn't how many books he's written, but what kind of intellectual contribution he's made in them. Now, I'm perfectly willing to entertain the possibility that he helped a lot of people with such titles as "Getting Off Cocaine" (Avon Books, 1984) or "Dr. Weiner's High Fiber Counter" (Pinnacle Books, 1984) or "Bugs in Peanut Butter" (Little Brown, 1976), but I remain unconvinced that he's done anything but promote Michael Savage with anything he's published in the last decade.
Finally, as an academic, remember that his PhD is in Nutritional Ethnomedicine, which hardly makes him an authority on political economy or morality. (Actually, judging by his appearance, I would seriously doubt whatever advice he has to offer concerning nutrition as well.)
Hey, watch with the monkey cracks. Don't us in the same class as Grouchy Smurf, we like to think that we evolved from him.
Thank you. :)
You're right. I regret that thoughtless and offensive remark, and I hope you'll accept my apologies. After all, we're both primates, you and I. Can I propose a peace offering? I'll take you out for dinner and we can talk about this. You can have the roast duck with mango salsa or whatever you want.
"Yeah, he'd get tough with the liberal press. That would be enjoyable. It would be much more enjoyable than Bush's press secretaries getting beaten around every day."
Savage would arrest (apparently without trials) an unspecified number of "liberals" (women as well). Perhaps tens of millions of people. He would then have them poisoned. His fans would "enjoy" the mass-murder.
Springtime for Hitler, only it's not Germany.
But it's preferable to poor Tony Snow having to answer a difficult question.
Yeah lots of smart people become insane. Weinerdog is insane. No one in America is in more dire need of a Haldol/Thorazine cocktail
" Yeah lots of smart people become insane "
That's something YOU'LL never have to worry about!
Savage uses his mind and speaks it. Millions of people agree with many of his ideas. Obviously, some are a little over the edge, but not all. The problem you have is that you can't let yourself agree with any simply because he doesn't like liberals. That alone just eats you up. How many liberal radio talk show hosts can claim half the radio listenership that he does? I'll bet you only need half of one hand to count them all (probably not that much). Probably the colletive bunch of liberal talk show hosts don't draw as much as Savage on any given night.
I have an IQ that puts your little pea brain in the toilet fool. YOU dont know that several milliong people agree with him only that they listen to him. Pathalogical insanity attracts some people. How do you know that most people just like to laugh at him and marvel at his insanity?
" I have an IQ that puts your little pea brain in the toilet fool. "
Point proven.
If the millions didn't agree with him then he would not still be on the air. Similar to what happens to air america and all other liberal talk show hosts...they go off the air because no one agrees with them, whether they were a laughing stock or not. Obviously no one agreed with them or they would still be on air.
You assume facts not in evidence. That the ONLY reason to listen is to Weiners insanity is that you agree with him. Also that the only reason NOT to listen is you dont agree. I know I dont listen to Air America as liberal as I am not because I dont agree with them but the format isnt for me. I like to read, I dont listen to the radio. Perhaps the preaching to the choir bit doesnt appeal to liberals. Also there is advertising which is overwhelmingly a BUSSINESS expense. We can all see why the bussiness community might be more prone to support conservatives. So you have made nothing here but baseless assertions.
This is sort of off topic, but has anyone besides me wondered what kind of personality it takes to do billboards and promo pictures of oneself in opaque sunglasses? We're not talking about Ray Charles here, we are talking about someone who has something to hide.
Is that what you would say about Roy Orbison, too?
That HE, like Ray Charles was BLIND, actually nearly blind. The glasses were heavy prescriptions.
This, to all Whiny Hiney Weiner Fans:
No more Weiner hangers-on!! Get a life!
Michael Savage IS the Right Wing in this country. He represents the views and attitudes of the Right better than any other personality.
Unlike Hannity, O'Reilly, Hugh Hewitt or Dennis Prager, Savage (Weiner) doesn't go through the effort of even trying to cover up his most base feelings. He lets it all out, and that's why he's so valuable to us.
Those fools at CPAC are not the heart of the Republican Party in America. It's Michael Savage. He is the poster boy for the true heart and soul of what passes for conservativism in this country.
And you know what? He also represents the main reasons this great nation is turning away from the Right and the Republicans.
I hope Savage stays around for a long time. A run for president? Please. Oh, please.
Actually, Weiner first said that when his "yes" votes hit 500,000, he would have an announcement, and when they hit 1 million, he would have another.
So far, the only announcement I've heard is that CAA signed him. Then a couple days later, after he was dropped, he was calling agents "pimps."
But I truly believe that all this presidential run talk is really a ruse to get loads of people to his web site, where he has just begun selling a couple reprints from his nutritional writing years, when he was still a Weiner. I think it's all a scam.
SAVAGE: Those scum-sucking vermin. Those left-wing rats, they won't be happy until we're all on prayer rugs waiting to have our heads cut off.
Jeeez, man! Seriously... get some professional help.
Nit. Wrong. Savage is not the reason why Americans are turning away from the GOP. Bush the idiot is. Bush is not a conservative by any means. Savage is a real conservative. Savage represents America. When Savage is the Republican candidate for President in 2008, Americans will realize that he's not Bush. Savage is for a balanced budget, strong borders, English only, and our troops. Savage will win in a landslide. Nobody can beat the guy in a debate. Nobody.
Do you not know HOW to reply directly to a post? Is that why you're constantly creating new threads in this discussion? Maybe someone could show you how? It's not hard. I'm sure you could figure it out with enough training.
The link that says "Reply to this comment" might be your first clue.
I'd prefer that the posts were all listed in chronological order so I don't have to go back to see if someone posted a reply to anything that I said.
So you can't look below your comment for responses? Cons who post new threads instead of replying directly do this so that it's more difficult to compare their response to the post they are really responding to. If logic beats you, obfuscate. It's the con way.
'Nobody can beat the guy in a debate. Nobody."
It's a shame he's crazy...
'Nobody with brain damage can beat the guy in a debate. Nobody lacking vocal cords."
Fixed your typo.
True Bush is not really a conservative more of a radical statist. Weinerdog however only represents the sanity challenged Americans. He has the insane vote all locked up, as for the rest? He has as much chance of becoming President as I do of growing wings and flying to the moon. As for debate Chomsky would eat him alive.
Chomsky? He may be a great linguist, but he is a political MORON. His world view is a joke. Put the Chomsky's if the world in power and you have Russia in 1930.
Oh no, Chomsky is far too radical for mere communism. He also has no interest in power. He is an idealist. I WATCHED him eat William F Buckley alive. No matter what you think of his politics and he HAS written more than 60 political books, you cannot deny the mans brilliance. You only show your committment to ideological blindness when you call the man the NYTimes called arguably the most important intellectual alive a political moron. The man Foriegn Policies named the most important foriegn policy intellectual in the world. He is an idealist. I am not advocating his syndico-Anarchism. However by comparison Weiner is a middle school dunce.
I don't want to waste time on Chomsky because I don't respect his politics. But he is a brilliant thinker, Ill grant you that: just not in politics.
That's fine, but I still think he could beat Weiner in a fair debate with one hemisphere tied behind his back.
He speaks very quietly and softly, and is big on the dry sarcastic comment so it might not be exciting TV. I'd much rather see Mike Savage and Mike Malloy do a no-holds-barred partisan testosterone rage-off.
Actually he is a brilliant thinker PERIOD. Including politics you just disagree with him. Being brilliant doesnt automatically mean he is right. There isnt any question he KNOWS his polics.
Hey weiner, quit refering to yourself in the third person.
When exposing frauds like Weiner, one wishes for either a bigger barrel or a smaller fish. As it is, it's hardly a sporting challenge.
The bottom line here is that they are playing us. With Savage willing to whip up his listeners into a frenzy much like the 'hate rally' from 1984. Or NBC's parent company in the military arms business, how much objective reporting do you think your going to get. And with the anti trust rules relaxed ( thank you Mr. Regan ), and these mega corporations spreading their influence all over the media landscape, how much opposition reporting do you think is out there? Regan also axed the fairness doctrine witch required that the media give equal time to opposing viewpoints. In my opinion, thom Hartman is one of the few who presents both sides of the issues, as if there was still a fairness doctrine in place. Almost as an example of what the media could be if it wasn't so slanted to the right wing mentality. I drew a cartoon to reflect this. it's at my website. http:/www.whatnowtoons.com/#081
818,
I am not a genius nor do I have a good handle on the English language. But Mr. Savage has an IQ of only 160. That is not as high as mine and I ain't no genius. You know if you keep taking the same test over the Internet, you can get as really good IQ number.
But I enjoyed reading your nonsense today and if you ever exit the rabbit hole, please write some more gems of Weinerdom. I personally can't wait. This is funny stuff.
P.S. Is vermin the plural of varments? Dr. Weiner would know
Weiner could have an IQ of 200 and it wouldn't mitigate his insanity. In fact, it could only contribute to his paranoia.
Yes, Michael Savage, PLEASE run for president! Let the whole nation see what the right-wing really stands for.
I was wondering when WeinerRocks would show up... looks like he changed his name to Politician.
Let me predict a future Media Matters article:
WeinerSavage: We should declare martial law in this country and exterminate all gays!
Politician: You libs should give him credit! At least he's not a Bushbot! And his IQ is 253!
Poor Mr. Weiner.
So brave,surfing these 'tubes' on the interweb. His neck constricting brown shirt not loose enough to flap in the cyber-breeze,yet the American flag he drapes himself in serves so well as a cape.
Poor misunderstood jackbooted thug,relegated to the life of a lowly Neocon radio talk show host. Poor feller,all these mean old liberals stalking and chasing him,using his own words to make a fool of him! Why must they persecute him so?
All he's ever wanted was a little power....a neck to sit his dainty boot-heel on(preferrably a minority of some type).....and to be able to roast his enemies alive in the fires of righteousness.
Why has fate left him thus? Why has God turned HIS omnipotent and omniscient eye from this good servant? Is his name not written in the book of life?
Ahh....here it is.
Micheal Pecker....no.
Micheal Phallus.....nope.
Micheal Dingus....closer....
Oh,here it is under "D".
For Dickless.
Savage is a paleoconservative, not a neocon.
Paleoconservative? You mean like a neanderthal? Does the missing link actually have his own radio show?
Or is the term appropos because the weiner wants to maintain all the good things from man's past, such as slavery, genocide, debtors prison, bloodletting, etc.?
He will have us lick lead. That's pretty harful intent if you ask me. It sounds to me like "you guys are lucky the Fuhrer is a peaceful man!"
Ahaha that made my day.
It's pretty obvious that Michael Savage is the most effective voice in Talk Radio bar none. Why do the intolerant regressive reactionary Lefties inside the Democrat Party fear him so? The answer is quite obvious: They can't handle the truth. Viva Savage!
Who, exactly, fears The Savage Weiner? Do you have any evidence of Democrats saying that? Or maybe you just like to pretend he's feared, the big Conservative Bogeyman scaring the liberals so you don't have to?
We dont fear him we pity him, along with all the simpleminded people who take his insane rantings seriously. You need help, my sympathetic liberal heart feels sorry for you
I fear the weiner.
I fear his manliness. His willingness to confront people from behind a microphone. I fear his shrill voice threatening to lockstep over my corpse with his other brownshirt buddies before they all go back to the clubhouse for the nightly circle-jerk and consumption of mass quantities of beer.
Puhleease. If he's gotta say it,he's not going to do anything. BUt it gets the Wingnuts riled up.
"OMG!!! They're after our WEINER!"
I would LOVE to see Savage run for President! Let the public realize how psychotic his rantings really are. What an embarrassment he would be for Republicans. He makes Ann Coulter look sane in comparison.
C'mon, "The Pink Hand"?!?!?!?! WTF?!
I would LOVE to see Savage run for President! Let the public realize how psychotic his rantings really are. What an embarrassment he would be for Republicans. He makes Ann Coulter look sane in comparison.
C'mon, "The Pink Hand"?!?!?!?! WTF?!
I voted "yes" on his poll. Everyone else, please vote too! Let's see the wingnuts self-destruct.
Savage and Coulter both use the same mind fallacies, false arguments and boogeymen as David Horowitz and the other hard core cultists. Beware this dichotomy of left and right. The cultist don't mean what rational people mean when they say "liberal" or the favored "leftist". As you can see...it's "lefty" that Savage directs his hate and anger towards. To people like this, MMFA and Ethridge are the SAME thing....a foggy maliable boogeyman at fault for everything bad in Mikey's world.
(Sorry for the double post)
The email address "michaelsavage@paulreveresociety.com" bounced back. PaulRevereSociety.com has been disabled. Did Michael pull the plug?
I wanted to encourage him to run! :)
His website is thepaulreveresociety.com, not paulreveresociety.com. Duhhhhhhhh
Actually his website is,
michaelsavage.com, at

thepaulreveresociety.com sends you to michaelsavage.com.
If Mr. Savage on one hand believes:
"You ought to thank God that I have no avariciousness in my soul."
Why does it matter how much Bill Maher earns in comparison unless Mr. Savage is a hypocrite?
It's the secret lesbian conspiracy for world domination! ....I was using this material for a Xena joke in the early 90's. Savage and O'Reilly are airing their own shortcomings on air, it's hilarious. It's the He-Man Woman Hater's Club! They can't get any notice from the girls, so they whine about them all being lesbians. Nothing wrong with lesbians either... they're cute when they kiss and you can talk to them about girls.
"You ought to thank God that I'm not power mad like you liberals, because if I ever ran for office, I can guarantee you, you wouldn't be in business too long. I can guarantee you you'd be arrested for sedition within six months of my taking power.".....proof of reincarnation, Stalin has been reborn and he hates lesbians. Will all the lesbians be forced into the camps first? Nice to see you're not so power mad that you wouldn't institute a clamp-down on lesbians the instant elected, Mr. Savage. Not power mad like us liberals at all. Gosh, what would Ben Franklin say if he found out us power-mad liberals tolerated women holding hands and kissing in public?!?!
Wow, this Wiener has a really thin casing.
Nice, Layman.
Along with the the nuts, this post is pulling a lot of good new commenters. Don't feed the trolls, folks. We're pretty sure it's either all one guy, or a Perl script.
"You ought to be happy, you liberal SOBs, that I am only a talk-show host. You ought to thank God that I have no avariciousness in my soul. You ought to thank God that I'm not power mad like you liberals, because if I ever ran for office, I can guarantee you, you wouldn't be in business too long. I can guarantee you you'd be arrested for sedition within six months of my taking power. I'd have you people licking lead paint, what you did to this country."
Layman, his name is Weiner, not Wiener. Anybody who hates Savage more than he hates the Islamofascists is demented.
There is no such thing as an "Islamo-fascist."
What would you call them? Islamo-democrats?
Fascism has a specific meaning. The current American government and its supporters want to appropriate the imagery of world War II because that was the last popular war.
In general, the Islamic radical movements want a theocratic state (cf. Iran), not a fascistic one organized along military-industrial lines (like Italy or Germany in the middle of the last century).
Islamo-fascism is a great term that bashes those people. Savage popularized the term. He's great.
Wiener is a Jew. That must make him a judeo-fascist, and Bush a christo-fascist. Except that those two actually preach fascism with just a twinge of theocracy.
Methinks the Savage doth praise himself far too much. He's just an ignorant Savage, with a savage mind, preaching to the savages. Savage for president? What does he know of princecraft, of the fine arts of war, economics, and culture? No to uneducated, ill-mannered savages. I prefer civilization....I got a 98% high score on the first version.
Two points:
1.) Bill Maher is a libertarian, NOT a liberal. And if he can be considered a "liberal", he's certainly no liberal that most liberals would accept.
2.)Matthew 35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
I don't know about you, but that sounds EXACTLY like right-wing economics and social justice to me!
Bill Maher is for gun control. He's for banning hunting. He supports affirmative action. He's for campaign finance reform. He supports higher taxes. He's a liberal. You don't know ANYTHING.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Maher#Political_views
Again, hardly someone I would call a "liberal". If you want to split hairs, I guess you could call him a liberaltarian.
Okay, here's a question for you libs. (I want to entertain myself.) Please answer the question. It's just a hypothetical, since it would never happen in real life. Here goes. It's the presidential election. You HAVE to vote. (No "outs" like killing yourself or voting for a write-in candidate. That ruins the hypothetical.) There are only two candidates for President. The candidates are George W. Bush and Michael Savage. Which one gets your vote? Remember, you HAVE to vote for one of them. Just answer the question. Humor yourself. Honestly, I'd like to see your answers.
Who would you rather vote for, John Kerry or Michael Moore?
I'd elect the Koala bear running as an independent.
Okay, here's a question for you libs. (I want to entertain myself.)
**************************************************
Well,entertaining yourself can be fun I guess.....but you do know that you'll go blind,right?
Be serious, 818, no liberal has the balls to answer that question. They'll just run around in circles trying to figure out what you mean by it. You must realize that liberals are a simple kind of person. Asking complicated questions like 'do you like A or B' is a little out of there league. You need to ask questions like 'would you kill a baby before it's born or kill the murderer after he's murdered someone'. Now, that's a question they can handle.
Why should we answer such an idiotic question. I have one for you do you want to die a slow death by bone cancer or slowly be tortured to death by infedels? Its ludicrous. Its also not that WE are simple but that YOU are so stupid you have no ability to even RECOGNIZE higher brain function much less accoplish the feat.
Sasami, I'll answer you if you answer me.
I already know my answer to your question too. I'm waiting to answer.
I'm not going to answer it. It's a ridiculous question. It's like those questions you would ask a friend in 5th grade.
"Would you rather kiss Cindy or Michelle?"
"EWW OMG!! Umm ummm... I guess.... Cindy... because her braces are kinda cute."
"HAHAHAH EWW ARE YOU SERIOUS?! WOW MAN THAT'S GROSS!"
I don't expect an answer from you. My question was a joke.
Actually I would have given an answer had you answered.
Well, I'm out for the night. Later.
Thank goodness for that. New troll in the house folks. Man, he must have been cooped up in his parents' basement for too long to let out that long string of postings. That's a lot of posting for one person, in one day, and amazingly enough, they were basically nice and tidy crazy right wing talking points over and over again. Nice job buddy! Keep it up. We can use your examples of crazy right wingers, and show it to the rest of the world.
New Troll indeed.
And it looks like his relief has just shown up for work. (see below).
I'm convinced that people are being paid to come here and counter any negative Savage item.
What else could explain someone being that indoctrinated?
"Well, I'm out for the night."
-----
Your logic has been out far longer than that.
C'mon back we will slap you around some more.
What a freakin' egomaniac you are SOLON! I'm beginning to like you.
What a moron you are infedel idiot. I am starting to notice you exist
After a nights sleep, I continued to read the "818 TOME". 818 you astound me with your brilliance to continue to defend a SPEWER OF HATRED by narrowing it down to his comments about the President. Does this make everything else go away? Don't think so. Is he crazy or a genius? Two answers to that question are accepted. Does he really add to the goodness of our country ? One answer for that one.
818, your were also correct and wrong in your assumption concerning my IQ.....it was 168 but after reading your tripe, it has decreased considerably...probably down to yours.
Which raises questions as to what kind of legal defences would be open to MediaMatters if it were, indeed, served papers of legal action as make good Mr. Savage's threat (including the defence that they published the truth).
Not to mention whether MediaMatters may want to ask for dismissal of the charges as one with Malicious Prosecution.
Also worth reading would have to be this Open Letter to Mr. "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder" himself, questioning the very premise of such a flawed argument and its implications upon those suffering from mental disorders, or otherwise having to cope with the prospect of relatives having same.
Regarding local trolls:
A.) There does seem to be more on the threads lately, and they seem to be more of the same one liners as usual.
B.) Folks, I think Weinerrocks got banned. He hasn't posted in a while (a shame really, I thought it was good to have him around. Reminded us all why its so wrong to worship idols. (He was also a great ad for deprogramming)).
C.) Poli818 (whatever)- are you weinerrocks in "disguise"? Your posts are like his, incoherent lies and half truths,served up in one liners. Without documentation, source or support. You lace your comments with plenty of "you liberals" and "lefty's" and other such drivel.
Perhaps if you want to be taken seriously by anyone here, show us your source. Some actual information, document your claims...etc. (any please not freerepublic.com or worldnetdaily they post any right wing spin for a quicky in the bathroom. Hey worldnetdaily tell us how soy milk causes homosexuality! [link to www.wnd.com] you read that, one of the really interesting things is about the size of male genitalia, could it be that conservatives are afraid gay men are bigger? (actually there's a research paper that says on average gay men have larger "stuff" than heterosexual men.)
(Side note: the last I heard, Mr. Weiner as a public figure, repeating factual quotes given by yourself in public, do not constitute stalking. If these quotes were made in private and/or MMFA had a black van following you around looking for you to say something stupid (lucky for everyone, you have no problem saying stupid things on air) that would be considered stalking.
As for the the top secret "pink list" Who told you about that?!?! Its supposed to be a secret, I mean we hid it next to Bush's Iraqi WMDs, I guess we'll have to move it someplace new. I know! We'll hide it next to the President's copy of the Constitution! As long as he's in office nobody will find it.)
Quick question:
Why was MMFA forwaring Weiner articles about himself?
Maybe Weiner is on the MMFA update e-mail listing?
They probably send him, and everyone else they post things about, copies of what they're sending before they send it out, to let them know, hey, this is appearing on here, and if you have issues with what we're saying, let us know if we have made errors in our reporting. I think lots of people called journalists used to do things like this all of the time. Asking their subjects for comment before posting, and letting them review transcripts before posting or printing something.
.. except MMFA didn't do that.
Again:
"The email was sent in response to a Media Matters email forwarding an item posted earlier that day."
They pointed out the article about Weiner AFTER they already placed it here for the rest of us to tear apart (rightfully so, he's a whiny little pud). That just screams, "HA-HA!!!!" on behalf of MMFA, prodding him into going after them again on the air. If that's what they actually did, it's horribly unprofessional, and for all of the criticism we're doing of Coulter's grade-school hysterics, high school people-chessing like this isn't much better.
Read it again:
"The email was sent in response to a Media Matters email forwarding an item posted earlier that day."
"earlier that day" is relative to when the email from Savage was received, not when they sent the initial email to him. The initial email could have very when coincided with the posting of the item."The email was sent in response to a Media Matters email forwarding an item posted earlier that day."
Well, from that quote, Weiner's email was a response to a MMFA email that forwarded an article that was posted before the email was sent. "Earlier that day" is modifying the item posted, not the email sent.
Now if it's true that Weiner has subscribed to some kind of newsletter service (does MMFA have a newsletter service) from the website that gives him all the dirt on.. well, himself, (1) it wouldn't surprise me, and (2) he'd have no reason to complain. If instead there are some people who are taking great pleasure in poking the dog with a pointy stick, I really think it's better to take the higher ground, or the organization looks unprofessional.
"earlier that day" is modifying "item posted", but it's referring to the subject of the sentence, which is Savage's email. Savage's email was received sometime after an "item posted" "earlier that day".
Aww, is wittle Michael Weiner scared of big bad Media Matters? Looks like the puny bigmouth can dish it out, but can't take it.
Seriously, this guy is a major hatemonger, and now he's running scared and ranting about legal threats because this website dares to criticize the bile which he spews nightly?
He's pathetic.
I'll grant that Savage is an effective speaker with a large audience. So was Goebbels.
Hey Wiener,
To quote Michelle Malkin:
BOO FRIGGEN HOO!!!!
I think we should all be glad that Savage has a radio show and can use it to vent. Who knows. If Hitler had a radio show, maybe he could have just talked smack about he Jews instead of trying to exterminate them.
god... *sniff* it's... so beautiful to watch an idiot with a mic break down mentally right in front of us. so... very very... beautiful...
I am becoming more and more suspicious that Savage is like Andy Kaufman or Borat... like any minute now he is going to drop the mask. This is some highly sophisticated self-caricature for an ethno-nutritionalist from Marin...
There is no discussion. Dr. Michael Savage has a huge audience of around 8 Million strong. He has had 4 New York Times best-sellers without any help from the Antique "Drive-By-Media". Not one of us here can match his intellect don't even try it! He is a "Weapon Of Mass Instruction". Case Closed Libs.... Viva Savage!
Yes,all that is true.
But he has a tiny pecker.
I am far smarter than Weiner is. End of story.
("End of story" trumps "case closed," you see. It's like "infinity plus one.")
PERIOD.END OF STORY trumps end of story.
FIN
None of which changes the FACT the man is demonstrably insane, a bigot and a hatemonger. A WHOLE lot of bigmacs are sold too. Doesnt mean they have any nutritional value. CASE CLOSED
Solon claims to be smarter than everyone, so "case closed" is the final entry. Sorry, rusty, you're just not as smart as solon.
.....Savage instructs his staffers to infiltrate Media Matters.....
Savage: "Look, what I want you shmendriks to do when you go home tonight is monitor that gay web site and..."
Staffer1: "Which gay web site Mr. Savage? There are plenty of...
Savage: "Which gay web site?! What, are you a total moron? I knew you were a moron when I hired you but this is unbelievable ! That Media Matters web site you rat bastid !"
Staffer1: "Oooooooh, that one !"
Savage: "Yes THAT one ! Are you smoking pot, you not so smart college kid ? Did your parents encourage you to think like them and their college professors from the 70's ? Now, pay attention and you just might learn something...you think this is fun what I do? It’s pure misery! But I do it! I’m the only one who can save this country from going down the toilet !"
Staffer 2: "That you are Doctor Savage. I don’t know where this country would be without you. We are so lucky to..."
Savage: "You’re damn right you’re lucky! Now, I want you two morons to spend your nights and all day Saturday and Sunday monitoring Media Matters. I want you to sign up for an account. Then, I want you to write posts that will counter all the lies that vermin over there are writing about me. I’m their only hope for savior and they treat me as though I were just common. A peasant from the old country..."
Staffer1: "What old country Mr. Savage? The Bronx? "
Savage: "The Bronx!?! Why you idiot! You moron! You waste of skin! You stupid boy! I should have you arrested and have you shackled and thrown in jail ! Who hired you!?! Who is plotting against me by hiring a rat like you!?! Who?"
Staffer1: "Mom did Mr. Savage. Remember ? mom asked you to put me to work over the summer? "
Savage: "I must be losing my mind. Or, maybe I’m the one who is stupid. No, never! My IQ has been tested by the best. I tested it myself. I’m sane and I’m brilliant. Listen, I want you to infiltrate that Anglo site and defend my reputation. I don’t care if you have to lie but I need a counter offensive to the accurate portrayal of Michael Savage over there. This vermin must be crushed. I think Teddy is picking up on the bad vibes from that gay agenda driven bunch of RDDBs because he’s crapping in bed while I watch my movies. Or, maybe it’s that Chinese food I’ve been giving him lately...I don’t know. I can’t even buy any decent gay porn anymore. What’s so difficult about showing a couple of young boys having sex with each other? I don’t understand it. You just hire a motel room, bring some candy and set up the camera.
OK, listen, it's time to go home and do your job..."
Staffer 2: "Ehh, Dr. Savage, will be get paid for this extra work ? I mean, we don’t get paid as interns as it is but now we have to work after hours and on the weekend? Is that fair?"
Savage: "Fair? Yeah, I’ll tell you what’s fair. Fair is you being able to say you work for the greatest mind in the world since Aristotle or Socrates. You two idiots are not worthy enough to lick the soles of my shoes. You’re lucky I don’t have you lick my anal canal the way Ginsberg made me lick his. Fair? You must be joking. Watch and learn from me and you just might get your own talk show some day. That is if medicine has advanced enough to perform brain transplants.
Now, when you finish mopping the floors and dusting get out of here without stealing anything...oh, you think I don’t know what you two are capable of ? Yeah, well think again. And, I want detailed reports on my desk every morning at 6:00 am sharp. I'll be in at noon to look over your progress in restoring my name."
The liberals should answer Politician's question. Btw, he totally took them to school by himself. If you had to vote for either Bush or Savage with absolutely no alternatives, for whom would you vote? I'd like to see whom the libs hate more.
What are you talking about?
I think the con trolls on this thread are just the same idiot sock puppeting as different people. They all have the same writing style and rhetorical weakness. Their posts are filled with invective, fallacious logic, and non sequitors. Either they are all the same imbecile, or Savagebots really are all the same.
MS4P is 818. He will stay here until he gets banned for asking another hundred times whether "libs" would rather vote for Satan or Skeletor.
Oh my God. Mitt Romney is running ads in Spanish. That rotten traitor! I can't wait for Michael Savage to defeat these RINO bums in the primaries.
Man,I hope Savage runs,honestly.
It'll be a kick in the nuts for the GOP if he does.
LOL! Like shooting your friend in the face!
Pastor Ted hated gays too.... LOL! Hee hee heee. Just google Michael Savage and Alan Ginsberg.
Go google yourself, moron.
Does Weiner's repressed homosexuality bother you?
Nothing like that would ever bother me. Life is too short to worry about things I can't control. Why would you ask me such a silly question?
You got all hot and bothered when Weiner's man-love for the late poet was mentioned, that's all. But I'm glad to see Weiner's repressed homosexuality doesn't bother you. That's very tolerant.
