On the March 6 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Michael Savage said: "I'll save a copy of [Savage's book] Healing Children Naturally for [those] who were apparently severely injured as children and became gay activists, who work for Media Matters." As Media Matters for America has previously noted, on the January 30 broadcast of his radio show, Savage vowed "not to read [Media Matters'] name anymore."

Healing Children Naturally, which Savage co-wrote with Kathleen Goss under his given name, Michael A. Weiner, was first published in 1982. It was apparently reprinted in 1994, according to Amazon.com, where one copy is available for sale. Savage is also selling the book on his website, MichaelSavage.Com, which says that, by "popular demand," the book is being reprinted. Healing Children Naturally is touted on the front page of the website as "[t]he most important book you will ever buy." The book purportedly offers natural and herbal remedies for a number of ailments, including hyperactivity, a disorder commonly treated with the drug Ritalin.

During the March 6 show, Savage claimed that Ritalin is "a radical feminist plot to destroy the boys of America." He continued: "Now, if you don't like what I just said, that's too bad. It doesn't matter to me. It really doesn't matter whether you find what I said preposterous or not, what I just said is 100 percent true. Ritalin is a conspiracy of greedy drug manufacturers, along with radical feminists, to feminize our boys, to pacify them and turn them into nothings, because girls are rarely prescribed Ritalin." He went on to conclude: "You understand that, don't you? Did you get that? It's an attack upon masculinity. It's off the patriarchy."

Savage also stated: "But now that sexual orientation is excusing people's communistic, Soviet-style harassment, I have a real problem with it. And mark my words, just mark my words: The perpetrators are going to pay for what they're doing. ... God sees the truth but waits. God, at the end of the day, gets even for all of the insults against decent people. ... You wait and see how it all ends." As Media Matters noted, Savage recently sent an email to Media Matters accusing the organization of "harass[ment]" and threatening legal action "under California's anti-stalking legislation."

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 6 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:

SAVAGE: Gasosaurus is not a windbag, [caller]. Thanks for trying. In fact, I'll give you the answer now and I'll save a copy of Healing Children Naturally for others who were apparently severely injured as children and became gay activists, who work for Media Matters.

Gasosaurus was a type of dinosaur -- a theropod -- with a large skull and powerful legs that lived in the Jurassic period, if I remember correctly. And the reason he's named Gasosaurus is because his remains were discovered by a Chinese gas company's construction crew. Gas lizard or Gasosaurus is in honor of the gas mining company that discovered the fossil of the Gasosaurus. Unfortunately, we have many Gasosauri still functioning in the United States of America, but they don't know it. They think that they're progressives but, in fact, they are nothing but fossils.

[...]

SAVAGE: But now that sexual orientation is excusing people's communistic, soviet-style harassment, I have a real problem with it. And mark my words, just mark my words: The perpetrators are going to pay for what they're doing. Just mark my words. God sees the truth but waits. God, at the end of the day, gets even for all of the insults against decent people. God sees the truth but waits. You wait and see how it all ends. You wait and see.

[...]

SAVAGE: If I were a boy today, God -- thank God, I was born when I was born -- if I were born five years ago, I'd be a roving target for the mean-faced, clipped-haired psychopaths who run the NEA [National Education Association] and the school system -- the mean-faced, clipped-haired ladies of delight, who run the school system. They would have seen a little boy with bright eyes who didn't want to listen to their rubbish and their brainwashing, and they would have recommended Ritalin for me. That's the kind of world we live in. It's all mind control. It's an attempt to destroy masculinity in America.

The primary target of Ritalin are boys, not girls, incidentally. This is a radical feminist plot to destroy the boys of America. Now, if you don't like what I just said, that's too bad. It doesn't matter to me. It really doesn't matter whether you find what I said preposterous or not, what I just said is 100 percent true.

Ritalin is a conspiracy of greedy drug manufacturers, along with radical feminists, to feminize our boys, to pacify them and turn them into nothings, because girls are rarely prescribed Ritalin. You understand that, don't you? Did you get that? It's an attack upon masculinity. It's off the patriarchy.

      Never heard of teachers recomending Ritalin but I have heard of doctors recomending Ritalin.

      On a different topic, what does Savage mean by this, "But now that sexual orientation is excusing people's communistic, soviet-style harassment, I have a real problem with it. And mark my words, just mark my words: The perpetrators are going to pay for what they're doing. Just mark my words. God sees the truth but waits.

      Sounds pretty creepy to me. Sounds like he is reaching out to a hate group or some zealot with a rifle. This guy would love to see political participation exercised in an environment of violent intimidation.

      May there be forgiveness for all you who support this rightwing eliminationist rhetoric.

      I've already pointed out that this is obviously not a gay website, Dr. Savage does get a little (or a lot) carried away sometimes, but that's one reason he brings in monster ratings.  While he is wrong about this being a "gay" website, he's 100% right on the actual issue he's talking about, the over diagnosis in boys comparitive to girls of ADHD/ADD.

        The actual issue that he's talking about is ""a radical feminist plot to destroy the boys of America."

        He's 100 percent wrong and if you believe this nonsense there's no help for you.

          Again, read the above comment, I already said he gets carried away, this is why he's entertaining.  My point was that he is right in pointing out that ADD/ADHD is over diagnosed in boys as compared with girls.

            Savage promises he will arrest and then poison "liberals" (presumably women, too) if he's elected president. Reminds me that Hitler got "carried away" in the same manner.

              Are you scared?  Do you actually THINK he would be elected?  His comments are on a similar tone as those of Bill Maher inferring that the death of the VP would be a good thing.  Neither one of these people will ever be elected president.  And have you ever heard of "hyperbole"?  Do you think he's actually serious?

                      Why would I ever go to a site filled with people who agree with me?  How would that help me streamline my positions?  By going to a website where everyone agrees with me it wouldn't be hard for me to debate with people who thought teh same as me.  Who would ever seek a site that the majority of the people would always agree with them?  It would probably have to be someone who either cannot debate effectively or just plain isn't smart enough to get their points across in a hostile environment....think about it

            Could it be because boys exhibit the symptoms more than girls do?  Lazy parents who aren't willing to modify the child's diet and exercise lifestyle let their doctors prescribe them Ritalin because it's easier to continue shoving preservatives and sugars down a kid's throat along with a pill than it is to be a parent and make deliberate and careful decisions about their kid's health.

            Lazy parents and pill-pushing doctors are hardly a conspiracy against boys -- boys are, unfortunately, either more subject to the manic effects of a poor lifestyle or are more likely to act out when subjected to such a lifestyle.

            I'm following Savage's logic, not my own.  ADHD has nothing to do with making hyper kids act like girls.  If you've ever seen a kid who truly has the disorder, they don't act like "boys".  They act like children who compulsively cannot control themselves.

        His point lacks substance because he has tailored it to fit his beliefs. A lot of the symptoms described practically describe the blonde stereotype. I could venture to guess that it is possible those types of stereotypes may shield more females from diagnosis, but it isn't because of some woman's movement to subjugate men. Do women outnumber men in the field responsible for making the determination in the 1st place? Prove that...

        There are differences in male and female brains. Feminist critics especially should know this. Boys also are much more likely to have autism, is that a liberal plot too? Where we evolved in Africa, men did nearly all the hunting and fighting. Maybe My guess is maybe ADD either didn't hurt so much,  or even helped. It would have beenworse in women who had to stay and focus on less exciting tasks andraising children. Although of course it must be a liberal plot since God created man 6000 years ago.I have no idea what he means by Ritalin "feminizing" boys. What does he think it is, chemical castration? Its a stimulant like caffeine in a way that helps you focus better. It doesn't have any affect on gender or male/female hormones or anything. It's funny though in a way, it's usually (presumably) far lefties who think drug companies are out to get us and cover up all kinds of supposed natural cures. Usually it's conservatives out to  defend poor little pharmaceutical companies from liberal nonsene like regulations for drug safety and quality.

      darn, savarocks you beat me too it. but ill post anyway -

      Is ADHD more common in boys than girls? By the criteria we use for the diagnosis of ADHD, for every girl with the diagnosis, at least three or four boys are also diagnosed. So, it's about a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of boys to girls.

      However, if you look at the ratio in those who are referred to azdoctor by an outside group, like from a school or a church, the ratio is as high as 9:1 boy to girl. This difference is because the only children who are diagnosed in these environments have associated problems, such as conduct disorder, severe depression, anxiety or oppositional behavior. And, as you will see, boys with ADHD tend to have more of these associated problems.

       [link to www.understandingadhd.com] its a bs "disease" made up by psychologists (sham profession) to make boys act like girls.  then they give the girls prozac to make them more outgoing so they can beat up the boys.

                      Incorrect. Again, the liberal statement that Jesus changed the Old Testament law is a lie. He said that he came not to change one jot.

                      I'll make it simple. Jesus is God. Therefore, when God said to execute murderers, Jesus said to execute murderers. Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

                    "As Congress prepares to take up the immigration issue again, advocates on both sides of the aisle are seeing a mounting propaganda campaign by white supremacist groups. They say the groups are embracing immigration issues as a way to recruit members."

                      I guess that Roundhouse agrees with our retarded president that illegal aliens are good. See, the liberals are the Bushbots. We conservatives are not. Bush is a disgrace who should resign, and he's dead wrong on immigration.

                      The liberal lie is that conservatives are against "immigrants." No, we're against illegal aliens. We're also not white supremacists. Liberal lies on this issue are absolutely disgusting. Throw out the illegal alien criminal scum now!

                      My point is he worded it in a way that it could be considered racist, if I posted a similar comment inferring something about an entire racil group I would get flagged and recieve about 14,000 "racist" comments.  As I already pointed out I actually DON'T think he's a racist, just needs to get his points across a little clearer

                        He used your race to point out your own racism, a belief which almost always includes a belief that one's own race is superior.

                        Savage can't get his point across clearly enough? I thought he was supposed to be a friggin' genius. Maybe he has too many ideas racing around his head at one time.

            So this is the easiest country to go from poor to rich? This is known as social mobility right? Do you have any facts to back this up or did it come from some dark, dank place in your anatomy. See, that may USED to have been true but according to what I have been reading its not anymore

            http://www.lse.ac.uk/collections/pressAndInformationOffice/newsAndEvents/archives/2005/LSE_SuttonTrust_report.htm

            A careful comparison reveals that the USA and Britain are at the bottom with the lowest social mobility. Norway has the greatest social mobility, followed by Denmark, Sweden and Finland. Germany is around the middle of the two extremes, and Canada was found to be much more mobile than the UK.

                      Lott said that if Strom Thurmond, who ran forPresident under the banner of the Segregationist Party, had been elected, America "wouldn't have had all the problems we've had."

                      Biden said Obama was "clean." Thurmond would have made sure Blacks were cleaned out.

                      Lott's picture was on the front page of the newsletter put out by the  Council of Concerned Citizens (CCC, get it? The K's were already taken), whose newsletter put forth the charming allegory that a gallon of white milk with the slightest drop of chocolate milk in it was no longer white. Lott said he had no problem with that, and still allowed his picture to be used.

                      In fact, Lott spoke at their convention, where he stated that "these people are what the spirit of America is all about." It isn't the spirit of any America I want to live in. 

                      If Lott had a hood in his closet large enough to cover the dead muskrat wig he wears on his head, he would be out with it in public.

                      Tell me again how Biden's statement was worse than Lott's. Biden made one slip in trying to compliment Obama. Lott has a lifetime history of bigotry.

                        Easy, Lott doesn't wear a hood and isn't in the KKK. Anybody who reads racism into what Lott said at Thurmond's 100th birthday party is a moron. Lott was simply being nice to an extremely old man, and race was not the only issue in the 1948 election. Liberals never think before calling people racists.

                        As for Biden, he actually had a point in what he said. Obama actually sounds intelligent when he speaks, whereas Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton don't. If what Biden said was a slap in the face to Jackson and Sharpton, then good for him. Those two bozos are an embarrassment to humanity.

That is a classic ad hominem. That is literally to the man. WHO said it is not relevant to WHAT was said. The question was about the STATEMENTS and anyone even CLAIMING that there was no racism in saying that had we elected a man RUNNING on a segragationist ticket as president we wouldnt be having all these problems is beyond being a moron. He would have to ASPIRE to great leaps in cognitive ability to QUALIFY as a moron. I am sorry your neighborhood morons anonymous club rejected you as being to dumb for them.

How about once we EXPOSE a problem it becomes something we can deal with. I get that you prefer to push the delusional fantasies you keep running in your head like an old movie, rather than try to change things. Lets keep everything that doesnt portray the world as conforming to a John Wayne movie our dirty little secret. Lets play pretend instead of facing reality and DOING something about it.

                  You do realize that Thurmond, never apologized for his racist past at all. He claimed it was all in the name of "state's rights". Whereas Byrd, as others have said, has apologized for, tried to atone for, and basically has tripped over himself to show that he has changed over the years.

      Gasosaurus was a type of dinosaur -- a theropod -- with a large skull and powerful legs that lived in the Jurassic period, if I remember correctly

      Yeah, sometimes those childhood memories fade.  Although, a big dinosaur like that probably leaves a pretty lasting image.

          No, weiner was telling us of his memories of the gasosaurus.  I merely commented that the gasosaurus' head and legs may have seemed much larger from his perspective as a small "bright-eyed" little boy, especially if it was trying to eat him.  But perspective aside, it proves that dinosaurs and men (or at least a young weiner) inhabited the earth at the same time, proving the story of the baby jesus.

        I'll clarify here, though I doubt it will make a difference:

        Bin Laden is a mass murderer and a brainwasher. But he operates largely underground, supported by and speaking to groups that must remain in similarly covert conditions.

        Beck is only a brainwasher, but he operates close to the mainstream (I hesitate to say he is directly in it, but I digress). As I said, he is paid handsomely to produce propaganda that is distributed by an American corporation.

        And though nearly 3,000 Americans were killed on 9/11 due to Bin Laden's plans, over 3,000 Americans have died in Iraq. That war was largely supported by people on Beck's side of the political spectrum (yes, I know there was popular Congressional support for the initial invasion, but that, again, is another topic.), and the continuing War on Terror is probably not helped by his anti-Muslim statements.

        Lastly, I said it was "debatable". I chose my words carefully. It's arguing something very difficult to measure, which I also stated. And no, I do not mean to suggest Beck really is as bad as, or worse, than Bin Laden. I was playing Devil's Advocate to show it's an absurd accusation to make.

          OK...so by your logic (beck MIGHT be worse than bin laden) I can go ahead and asume that Clinton was worse than Bush because more american soldiers died while he was in office than have died in the Iraq war.  And that to the fact that Clinton's casualties happened during peace time and Bush's were a result of the greatest atack against America since pearl harbor and that makes "Slick Willy" look even worse.  (Data taken from the New york Sun).  Secondly, your assertion that Beck is dangerous for his "anti-muslim" rhetoric is absurd.  Beck DOES speak out against muslims....radical muslims.  The kind of muslims that would put a bomb in your child's school or park 2 planes into a building.  In fact Mr. Beck spent monday at a cecular muslim conference in Florida and later had many muslim guests on his radio program...I hate to let these facts refute your rhetoric which is pretty much all you have.  And to your playing the "devil's advocate"...this website takes everything (for example beck's "harrasment" of that female guest) that right-wing pundits say literaly.  It allows no room to allow for sarcasm or hyperbole.  Why then are the rules different when you assert that beck "might" be as bad as Bin Laden as opposed to when a right-winger makes an off color joke?  Clearly a double standard.  If you honestly think that Mr. beck is 1/10000000000000 as evil or dangerous as a man whose entire goal is YOUR death you are clearly beyond help.

            Sure, why not? You have stated your opinion, and you supported it with facts (Not very good ones, but that's MY opinion).

            (Data taken from the New york Sun). 

            Don't make me LOL. 

            Secondly, your assertion that Beck is dangerous for his "anti-muslim" rhetoric is absurd.  Beck DOES speak out against muslims....radical muslims.  The kind of muslims that would put a bomb in your child's school or park 2 planes into a building. 

            Or get elected to Congress. He blurs the line between "good Muslim" and "bad Muslim" (to use his own terms).

            In fact Mr. Beck spent monday at a cecular muslim conference in Florida and later had many muslim guests on his radio program...I hate to let these facts refute your rhetoric which is pretty much all you have.

            If you poke around this site a bit, I'm sure you'll find plenty of moments of Beck acting like he doesn't like Muslims very much. Again, how he actually feels seems DEBATABLE, but thanks to Media Matters, I have much more than rhetoric and you will find it is not that easy to refute all they have documented.

            And to your playing the "devil's advocate"...this website takes everything (for example beck's "harrasment" of that female guest) that right-wing pundits say literaly.

            I don't see how Beck's harassment can be compared to playing Devil's Advocate. Do you have an extended transcript or video clip that shows Media Matters took a righty out of context?

            It allows no room to allow for sarcasm or hyperbole.

            Sometimes a smear is a smear. It's quite easy to say hateful things and hide behind such concepts in order to help "normalize" otherwise obviously harmful ideologies.

            Why then are the rules different when you assert that beck "might" be as bad as Bin Laden as opposed to when a right-winger makes an off color joke? Clearly a double standard.

            Why can you not see the difference? I'm trying to say that, since quantifying how "bad" one individual is compared to another is next to impossible, you can debate over who is worse. How is that anything like an off-color joke? 

            If you honestly think that Mr. beck is 1/10000000000000 as evil or dangerous as a man whose entire goal is YOUR death you are clearly beyond help

            Can you prove Beck is less than 1/10000000000000 as evil as Bin Laden? Have you given each of them an "evil test" to measure their level of evilosity? Or have you been to Bin Laden's hideout and heard him mutter under his breath "I'll get that iflurry..."

                Are you suggesting that, not only can you measure how evil someone is, but you can also do it merely by counting the number of murders they've committed? What about all the Nazi propagandists who did no killing themselves? Are they not evil at all? And if "evil" is synonymous with "murder", why didn't you just argue that Bin Laden was a worse murderer than Beck (which I can't argue against) instead of the infinitely more subjective "worse"?

                    The Nazi comment was a bit of a juvenile thing to say, I admit. But I wanted to show how someone can do evil without killing, and couldn't think of any better comparison. He may not call for violence, but I believe he encourages hateful thinking.

                So by your assertions, Bush should be REALLY evil, because the number of innocent people killed under his war efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq, far exceed the less than 3000 people killed on 9/11. Or are those innocents who were caught up in the war not innocent? Or where they just "collataral damage"? So how does your evil rating work? Because if it works on number of innocent people killed, Bush should be at the top of the list for at least the past 6 years...

      I can't let the evening get away without pointing out a few things.  You need to grab a dictionary and look up Infer.  I think what you probably meant was--Imply.  It's a semi-common mistake, but it makes you sound like some moron who spends too much time listening to talk radio programs such as Savage Nation.  I can't remember if it was the 11th or 12th grade where this was taught, so if it is the 12th--my bad.

       

      You think Liberalism might actually be a mental disorder?  I'll point out that throughout history Liberalism ALWAYS WINS.  ALWAYS ! There is no other option.  Boil down Liberlism and conservatism and you have the classical fight between Progress and Stagnation.  Throughout history most wars have been between and among conservatives.  Hitler, BinLaden, Stalin, Hussein, Bush, Reagan, Bush, (and the list goes on) were all right to far right leaning leaders.  How does it feel to be on this side ?

       

      Doctor Savage is a doctor of nutrition.  Wow !  This makes me wonder how he is any different than any other *ssh01e on with an opinion.  You guys are so thirsty for validation of your backward thinking and prejudices that you follow the likes of a drug addicted 3 times divorced draft dodging bigot (Limbaugh), a lying flag wrapped freedom concert military exploiting half wit (Hannity), and a vile bigoted homophobic paranoid vitamin peddler (Savage).

                It's not a double standard ecause I clearly said I was playing Devil's Advocate (on a nebulous issue, no less) and you have yet to refute how comparing two very successful hatemongers is illogical. But why do you feel the need to put words in my mouth? Either quote me or don't make any claim as to what I said at all.

                  You said you were being the "devil's advocate" only after I pointed out how asinie your statement was.  Firstly Beck is NOT a hatemonger, he speaks against RADICAL islamists who would kill you right now if they had the chance.  Secondly, the reason you can't compare the two (and I really can't understand why you can't grasp this) is because Bin laden is a MASS MURDERER....Beck is just someone you happen to disagree with

                    Then I should have been more clear in my first post. And I did say that this Beck vs. Bin Laden thing was DEBATABLE, I never actually took a position. And while you are a person I disagree with, Beck IS a hatemonger, and if you don't see why I say that then you haven't been on this site enough. In fact, the way you keep mentioning that the radical Muslims have a vendetta against some punk from a website who calls himself "iflurry" seems like you're clutching at straws to me.

                    As far as I can tell, this whole Beck vs. Bin Laden thing is a straw man you created representing only your warped view of liberals.

          I've noticed that some comments on this site are very anti-Savage, they say hs is a Nazi, etc. , but they do not counter ONE single argument he presents. They seem obsessed with him, but this may have to do with his charisma and brilliance which naturally tends to attract people. It seems to be me that Dr. Savage has made an excellent diagnosis. Our culture has been tragically feminized. One small bit of evidence to point this out, would be the television commercials that constantly portray men as weak, effeminate, subservient to women, or totally absent. Just analyze the tv ads. In movies you will see much of the same. Liberals, gay activists, and feminists control much of what America is presented with in our Media. Look who hosted the recent Oscars: Ellen Degeneres. The Media is hell bent on destroying Family Values, and push their gay, pro-abortion, anti-Christian agendas. Americans are fed up with this b.s., and this is why Dr. Savage, Hanitty, Rush, Ingraham, Elders, and many, many other Conservative Voices are so inmensely popular today. They are neutralizing what the Mainstream Liberal Pro-Democrat-Biased Media is dishing out to us. Viva Savage!

        What arguments. Calling people names and ranting as insanely as Weiner does isnt a call for rebuttal. Its a call for Thorazine. The whole feminzing thing is just so dumb I didnt realize anyone was simplemided enough to take it seriously. Did your father care if you went hungry? Did he want to be sure you got a decent education? Now the key question, in your strangely simplistic world did that make him LESS OF A MAN? Until you guys stop viewing the world with such childlike simplicity, you will never understand it and never get a clue. Weiners sanity challenged rants arent aimed at making arguments to better the world, they only give insecure people someone to target and feel superior to. Its like the old story about the poor farmer. His black neighbor was marginally more productive and bought a mule, when the mule died his son knew he had killed it and asked him why his answer was because if you arent better than a black man who are you better than. People with REAL self confidence and a healthy self image dont need to feel BETTER than to feel good about themselves but to those with a damaged self image its crucial that they feel better than SOMEBODY. That is the service Weiner provides through his insane, bigoted ranting attacks. The sad part is that more than two people think it is worth spending more than ten seconds on

      As much as I despise the hateful crap he spews, I have to admit I admire Savage.

      He's done such a fine job of manipulating both the conservatives and liberals, and neither side can see him for what he really is. Savage is an entertainer, and it's pretty clear to me that his comments are geared towards firing up both sides, and creating controversy. I find it hard to believe that what he says on air is really what he believes. Give a careful listen when he startsscreaming, does the anger sound real to you?

      His slamming of the liberals gets conservatives fired up, and arouses the "disaffected angry white male". At the same time, his hate speech gets the liberal elitists foaming at the mouth.What's the end result? More attention, more ratings, and more money in the bank for Savage.

      That, and large groups of Media Matter posters guilty of the same name calling and hatrid that they see in Savage.

      Conservatives fall for it because they refuse to think in non black and white terms.Liberals fall for it because they they think they already know everything.

      Savage is crazy like a fox.
