Savage rant: Media Matters made up of "yokels and drunks," "cretins," "rat snitches," "snitch perverts," and "scum"
On the December 14 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Michael Savage repeated his disparagements of prominent Democratic women and the residents of New Hampshire, and referred to Media Matters for America as "yokels and drunks," "cretins," "rat snitches," "snitch perverts," "snitches out of the ex-Soviet Union," and "scum."
During the program, Savage referred to two Media Matters items regarding comments he made on December 12: the first documented comments he made about Rep. Jane Harman (CA), Sen. Barbara Boxer (CA), and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (CA), whom he referred to as "yentas" and suggested were in office because they "have rich husbands who put them in power with their money, so they could have a little hobby in between getting their nails done"; and the second noted his descriptions of New Hampshire residents as "drunks" and "yokels." As Media Matters documented, during the December 12 broadcast, Savage also claimed that "90 percent of the people on the Nobel Committee are into child pornography and molestation, according to the latest scientific studies."
Early in his December 14 broadcast, referring to Harman, Boxer, and Pelosi, Savage said, "We were talking about waterboarding and these yentas apparently were upset that we were using waterboarding on Al Qaeda members." Savage then said, referring to Media Matters, "So they recorded everything I said. And then to the end of the recording -- they do a very good job of transcription, by the way -- when I said go home and make -- I said to my board operator, would you rather be waterboarded or be put in the same room with Barbara Boxer after a family argument?" As Media Matters noted, Savage also asked his "board operator" if he would rather "be waterboarded for 30 seconds or eat Jane Harman's ravioli" and whether he'd rather "be waterboarded or eat Nancy Pelosi's tortellini."
Savage continued to read from the Media Matters item detailing his attacks on Harman, Boxer, and Pelosi, then said:
SAVAGE: Then, listen to this. These people are so sick, at this website that attacks conservatives -- and it's a group created by Hillary Clinton, we have it on record -- they actually are so stupid that they write this: "According to the encyclopedia, Varenyky (Ukrainian) or vareniki (Russian ...) are a kind of stuffed dumpling associated with Ukrainian cuisine. Some variants are also found in Belarusian, Russian and Polish cooking, and are sometimes said to be of Turkish origin. Varenyky are similar to Polish pierogi, Siberian pelmeni, and Italian ravioli." This is how sick they are. Well, they actually looked up one of my mother's favorite dishes.
Savage then continued, reading from the Media Matters item detailing his attacks on residents of New Hampshire:
SAVAGE: "Savage replied: 'What kind of rubbish is this that New Hampshire -- a bunch of drunks up there -- and Iowa, they're going to determine the outcome of an election? Who came up with that nonsense?' " he asked. " 'That's like believing in Santa Claus. If you believe that a bunch of drunks in New Hampshire and a bunch of stamp collectors in New Hampshire and a bunch of corn farmers in Iowa really are going to predict who the next president will be, that's like believing in Santa Claus.' " I'd say, "I gotta listen to this guy Savage. He knows what he's talking about. Wow, that guy's sharp."
After Savage reminisced about his mother's verenikis, he said, "Well, I'm glad these yokels and drunks at this website now know how to make a very, very good piece of food from Belarusian, Russian, Polish or Turkish origin."
Savage then continued to read from the "Dem women" Media Matters item:
SAVAGE: "On the December 12 show, Michael Savage referred to Rep. Jane Harman (D-CA), Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) as 'yentas,' and said Harman should go home and cook verenikis." Let me tell you something. If Jane Harman could you make a veriniki, she wouldn't make the stupid statement she's making about no waterboarding. See what I'm saying? That's why I want her to go home and make a vereniki. If she could go home and learn how to make a veriniki like my mother did, she'd come out and say, "What are you so worried about how they're treating Al Qaeda? You moron. They like to kill you! Let them beat 'em with a rolling pin! That'll get the information out of them." I would think. Wouldn't you?
After Savage played an "Italian love song for a mother," he asked, "Why do the people who write Media Matters hate their mothers so much?" He added, "I don't understand it. What did she do to them?"
Later in the broadcast, a caller said, "I cannot wait to read Media Matters tomorrow to see how the morons actually transcribe Michael Savage transcribing Michael Savage." Savage said "Yeah, that should be hard for them. They may get blinded by their own mirror." The caller said, "Michael Savage said that Michael Savage said," to which Savage replied, "Michael Savage said that Michael Savage said." He then said of Media Matters, "They're very sick people. But the thing to remember about those cretins, is that they're a front group for Hillary Clinton and everybody knows that."
Savage later said that Hillary Clinton is "smart enough to know that Media Matters is now an impediment to her because if this gets out." He continued, calling Media Matters "rat snitches," "snitch perverts," and "snitches out of the ex-Soviet Union":
SAVAGE: [L]ook, I got 8, 10 million listeners? I guarantee it's closer to 20. And the more of you that send it up the Democrat Party [sic] line that Media Matters is out of control -- they're insane, they're attacking people who are -- the word I'm looking for here is independent. Not everybody listening to this show is a Republican right-winger. They may be independent. Some of them are probably Democrats. They don't like Media Matters. They don't like their tactics. It's out of the Soviet Union. They claim that they're progressives? But all they are is a bunch of rat snitches. All they do is sit and listen to somebody and rat them out and they think that they're going to bring them down? They're snitches out of the ex-Soviet Union. And the faster that Hillary Clinton drops Media Matters, the better off she will be. It's not about me. I can live -- let me tell you something. My show is not affected by them at all. They're going to find out very soon -- very soon -- that their little game is going to cost them a fortune. Very, very soon, all these little snitch perverts are going to find out that they're going to pay the piper for the fun they've had these last few years. But we'll let that go for now. We'll let it go for now. You guys have a real nice weekend. You enjoy your holiday season. Because after the first of the year, you're going to find out that all of the fun you've had, you're going to pay the piper for it.
Savage further called Media Matters "vile, disgusting, demented creatures," a "slimy, Soviet-style hate group," and a "hate group" that engages in "miserable Soviet tactics."
Savage has disparaged Media Matters numerous times before, calling the organization a "fascist front group," a "hate group," a "group of gay Mafiaso," "the homosexual Mafia," and "a gay smear sheet." On the January 30 broadcast of his show, Savage called Media Matters a "little website" and claimed, "I'm not even going to read its name anymore."As it has repeatedly noted, Media Matters is a progressive nonprofit organization and is not affiliated with any candidate or political party.
Later in the broadcast, after referring to the "militant homosexuals," whom Savage said are part of a "powerful movement" that "owns the media" and "owns Hollywood," Savage said, "Every statement I've just made is will be mocked by these scum in this organization I have mentioned, this front group for Hillary Clinton, who will drop them." He continued: "You want me to make a prediction for 2007? Here's my prediction: Within 2008, Hillary Clinton disconnects from Media Matters. She disconnects from that Frankenstein that she created. Mark my words. Mark it down right now."
From the December 14 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:
SAVAGE: Let's pause right here. When I come back, an insignificant group that was created by Hillary Clinton to try to destroy talk radio, who will not be mentioned, records my show daily, and yesterday they said, "Savage makes degrading comments about House Speaker and other prominent Dem women. He called Sen. Barbara Boxer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi 'yentas' and he said Jane Harman should 'go home and cook verenikis.' "
We were talking about waterboarding, and these yentas apparently were upset that we were using waterboarding on Al Qaeda members. So they recorded everything I said. And then to the end of the recording -- they do a very good job of transcription, by the way -- when I said go home and make -- I said to my board operator, would you rather be waterboarded or be put in the same room with Barbara Boxer after a family argument? Phil says, "I'm going to have to ask to be waterboarded twice." Savage laughs and the last question, "Would you rather be waterboarded or eat Nancy Pelosi's tortellini?" Newmark says, "Put a bullet in my head before I'll eat that tortellini." Savage laughs, "All right, we're on record, Phil. We'll have to find somebody willing to waterboard you."
Then, listen to this. These people are so sick, at this website that attacks conservatives -- and it's a group created by Hillary Clinton, we have it on record -- they actually are so stupid that they write this: "According to the encyclopedia, Varenyky (Ukrainian) or vareniki (Russian ...) are a kind of stuffed dumpling associated with Ukrainian cuisine. Some variants are also found in Belarusian, Russian and Polish cooking, and are sometimes said to be of Turkish origin. Varenyky are similar to Polish pierogi, Siberian pelmeni, and Italian ravioli." This is how sick they are. Well, they actually looked up one of my mother's favorite dishes. Thank you, guys. I'll be right back.

"Savage referred to residents of New Hampshire as 'drunks' and 'yokels.' " Again, this meaningless little blog that attacks conservatives has a real thing for me -- this is funny, because it actually makes sense to me. If I didn't know who Michael Savage was and read this, I'd say, "You know, I gotta listen to this guy, he makes sense."
"On the December 12 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, while discussing the presidential primary system, Michael Savage asked, 'What kind of rubbish is this that New Hampshire -- a bunch of drunks up there -- and Iowa, they're going to determine the outcome of an election?' Savage also referred to the residents of New Hampshire as 'yokels' and 'stamp collectors' and the residents of Iowa as 'corn farmers.'
"Savage interjected: 'First of all, who cares what they think in Iowa? That's number one. Why are we still running elections like it's the 19th century, where New Hampshire determines the election? A bunch of yokels in New Hampshire are going to determine the election as much as my dog is going to determine the election.' " And he went on: " 'But I'm sick of this 19th century model being used to tell who's going to win the election.' Savage went on to say, The people know that it's all fraudulent and that both parties are part of the same scam.'
"Later, a caller stated, 'I'm just calling to say you're absolutely right about Iowa.' " Of course I'm right about Iowa. The woman moderator who said that we're not going to talk about immigration or Iraq has been roundly condemned throughout America, but these schmucks here at this website don't even know that I was right. They don't know when I'm right. They don't know what I'm talking about. Boy, was I right.
"Savage replied: 'What kind of rubbish is this that New Hampshire -- a bunch of drunks up there -- and Iowa, they're going to determine the outcome of an election? Who came up with that nonsense?' " he asked. " 'That's like believing in Santa Claus. If you believe that a bunch of drunks in New Hampshire and a bunch of stamp collectors in New Hampshire and a bunch of corn farmers in Iowa really are going to predict who the next president will be, that's like believing in Santa Claus.' " I'd say, "I gotta listen to this guy Savage. He knows what he's talking about. Wow, that guy's sharp." Yeah. What else do we got? Play Elvis Presley, 09. Go ahead.
[audio clip: Presley's "That's All Right (Mama)"]
SAVAGE: Aw, I don't have a mother. I wish I had a mother. I'd be nice to people.
"Varenyky (Ukranian)" -- hold it. According to an encyclopedia, "Varenyky [is] (Ukranian) or vereniki (Russian...) are a kind of stuffed dumpling" -- can you imagine -- I said Jane Harman and Barbara Boxer should just go home -- get out of politics and go home and cook verenikis, so they went and looked up vereniki. Some variants are also dumplings associated with Ukranian cuisine. I didn't even know that. "Some variants are also found in Belarusian, Russian and Polish cooking, and are sometimes said to be of Turkish origin." How do you like that? I was multicultural and didn't even know it.
"Varenyky are similar to Polish pierogi, Siberian pelmeni, and Italian ravioli." Do you see how multiculti I am when I make a reference like that to have to even look it up? And I gotta tell you, my mother's verenikis, which she only made when she was young, is a very hard dish to make right. Let me explain how it's done. You know I have the recipe somewhere. I should try it in honor of her, like, this weekend. Well, basically what it is -- it's a -- it is, it's rolled dough -- she rolled the dough with the pin, the rolling pin, the board. Oh, did I -- you know those days I'd stand in the kitchen and watch her cook were the best days of my life, when you think back. Who knew it? You'd sit and chat over this and that. She's with the rolling pin, they throw a certain flour on the board so it didn't stick. You didn't even pay attention to the little things. Today you get schmucks that go to a cooking school. You ever see them with a rolling pin? It falls out of their hand. And they got a book on how to roll the thing -- my mother never went to a school. I don't' know how she did it. She'd roll the dough, then she'd cut it a certain way, not with a pre-mold, but she had a knife she used, an actual knife. Every one was different, in other words. She didn't need a consistent vareniki. The wrapper -- didn't matter to her if it was precise, she wasn't making it in a factory. And then, but her stuffing was potato and onion. There was no grease in it, no butter. I loved it. It was a potato ravioli, in essence. And they were large. They were the size of a baby's fist, let's say, and she floated them in water. They were boiled. Oh my God, I can just taste it to this day. When they came out of that water, still hot -- it's like an Italian ravioli in that sense. I like them when they're almost burning out of the water. I like to eat them when there's still hot water on them. You know, slurp them down. Man, there was nothing better. Well, I'm glad these yokels and drunks at this website now know how to make a very, very good piece of food from Belarusian, Russian, Polish or Turkish origin. But the recipe isn't in there. You know, one of these days I'm going to have to put out the recipe book, my own recipe book.
"On the December 12 show, Michael Savage referred to Rep. Jane Harman (D-CA), Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) as 'yentas,' said Harman should go home and cook verenikis." Let me tell you something. If Jane Harman could you make a veriniki, she wouldn't make the stupid statement she's making about no waterboarding. See what I'm saying? That's why I want her to go home and make a vereniki. If she could go home and learn how to make a veriniki like my mother did, she'd come out and say, "What are you so worried about how they're treating Al Qaeda? You moron. They like to kill you! Let them beat 'em with a rolling pin! That'll get the information out of them." I would think. Wouldn't you?
What else do I want to tell you? Favorite Mama Savage moments. Were there any? It wasn't always good. I mean, you know that. But how can you not love your mother? You can dislike her. But you can't not love her, you know what I'm saying. Coming home late, late in Queens, let me think -- the mailbox, the key is in the mailbox, how about that? Three in the morning, taking off your shoes, but you know she's up somewhere, and you get caught, but never mad, never mad. She knew where you were, at the dance, smoking a little pot with the guys, drinking a little too much. I've told you all this before. Big deal. And I'm not running for office. Look at the stupidity -- that someone smoked a joint when they were a teenager. They're making that into an issue. You know we're a juvenile, moronic nation that we care if a guy smoked a joint when he was a teenager. That's a presidential issue? It's crazy. We're like idiot children. We don't even deserve a country with this kind of stupidity. At least -- I mean, I'm telling you, I can't take this anymore. If I were running, I wouldn't put up with this. The only one who stood up like a man was Fred Thompson. He's the only one who stood up to that loser hack in Iowa. The Des Moines Register editor and moderator Carolyn Washburn who said, "We're going to focus on issues that Iowans say they still want to know more about. We won't talk a lot about issues like Iraq or immigration." People were infuriated by her pomposity, Carolyn Washburn. What a moron. Everybody has been condemning her except this blogosite that they run here. I was 100 percent right. She dis -- you know, she disrespected the Republicans, and the only one who put her down properly, was when she asked him a question and he tried to answer it and she wouldn't give him time -- was Fred Thompson, said "I'm not going to answer that." He was the only one who stood up to her. Play this -- this woman.
WASHBURN [audio clip]: We're going to focus on issues Iowans say they still want to know more about. We won't talk a lot about issues like Iraq or immigration --
SAVAGE: Aw, shut up. Go milk a cow. Get off my show. Get off my show. Go milk a cow without gloves. I'll be right back.
[...]
SAVAGE: Beautiful. Italian love song for a mother. You hear this? Go laugh at it, you sick -- I'd like to say things I can't say on the show right now. I just wish I were at a bar with friends. I'd tell you what I really think. Why do they hate their mothers? I don't understand it. Why do the people who write Media Matters hate their mothers so much? I don't understand it. What did she do to them? Thank you, Jerry. [claps] That's all.
[...]
SAVAGE: Houston, Texas. David, you're on The Savage Nation, go ahead, please.
CALLER: Yeah, Dr. Savage, I cannot wait to read Media Matters tomorrow to see what the -- to see how the morons actually transcribe Michael Savage transcribing Michael Savage.
SAVAGE: Yeah, that should be hard for them. They may get blinded by their own mirror.
CALLER: Yeah, Michael Savage said that Michael Savage said --
SAVAGE: Yes. Michael Savage said that Michael Savage said. They're very sick people. But the thing to remember about those cretins is that they're a front group for Hillary Clinton and everybody knows that. You've heard my tape where Hillary boasts that she created Media Matters?
CALLER: [unintelligible]
SAVAGE: Listen. Hold it. Play the tape. Here's Hillary Clinton.
CLINTON [audio clip]: I just wish that we had this active and fighting blogosphere about 15 years ago, because we have certainly suffered from over the last years a real imbalance --
SAVAGE: Stop it right here. You cut the wrong part. You gotta move it up to where she says she created Media Matters, which we'll do in the next segment. It's a front group for Hillary Clinton and my prediction is she's going to drop them like a hot potato because everybody is on to them. They're like Tikkun was.
[...]
CLINTON [audio clip]: These two things that I helped to start and support, like Media Matters and Center for American Progress --
SAVAGE: OK, so you've got it on record now, and I've repeated this. Everyone listening to this should capture this and replay it over and over again. Anyone in radio who wants to borrow it, we will give it you. I think we need to finally show the connection between Hillary Clinton and this disgusting, demented group, and I'll tell you why. Because once -- see, she's dropping in the polls, for good reason. She's gotta get rid of all the negatives. They're the most negative appendage hanging from her. They're vile, disgusting, demented creatures. They think that by attacking me and a few others in radio, they're going to get somewhere in life? What she needs to do is drop them immediately.
See, when she was vice-whatever or co-president, she was hoodwinked by a fraudulent rabbi here in Berkeley, California, a self-professed fraudulent rabbi who made himself into some guru. And he talked his way all the way up Democrat Party circles. And he wrote some crappy magazine they called Tikkun and he started advising her. What happened was, she dropped him after a year after she found out the guy was what he was. Now, this man, in my opinion, has single-handedly polluted Israel and almost destroyed the nation. He brought the peace-now movement from Berkeley to Israel and demoralized the entire nation. You don't know how powerful some evil can be. But in my opinion, people are like viruses. A single virus could unravel a man. A single bad man could unravel a nation.
She dropped him. She was a smart enough politician to drop him. And she's smart enough to know that Media Matters is now an impediment to her because if this gets out -- look, I got 8, 10 million listeners? I guarantee it's closer to 20. And the more of you that send it up the Democrat Party line that Media Matters is out of control -- they're insane, they're attacking people who are -- the word I'm looking for here is independent. Not everybody listening to this show is a Republican right-winger. They may be independent. Some of them are probably Democrats. They don't like Media Matters. They don't like their tactics. It's out of the Soviet Union. They claim that they're progressives? But all they are is a bunch of rat snitches. All they do is sit and listen to somebody and rat them out and they think that they're going to bring them down? They're snitches out of the ex-Soviet Union. And the faster that Hillary Clinton drops Media Matters, the better off she will be. It's not about me. I can live -- let me tell you something. My show is not affected by them at all. They're going to find out very soon -- very soon -- that their little game is going to cost them a fortune. Very, very soon, all these little snitch perverts are going to find out that they're going to pay the piper for the fun they've had these last few years. But we'll let that go for now. We'll let it go for now. You guys have a real nice weekend. You enjoy your holiday season. Because after the first of the year, you're going to find out that all of the fun you've had, you're going to pay the piper for it. Play the Grateful Dead now. I want to hear some Grateful Dead or whatever. That's what I need.
[audio clip: Grateful Dead's "Casey Jones"]
SAVAGE (over music): This song is dedicated to the core base of the Democrat Party.
Thank you, guys. Give them some rat poison and we'll see them in Hades.

CALLER: I called in specifically to talk about the command you have on the topic of the body of knowledge that's out there on the militant homosexuals. And, having heard an interview you had with an author -- first name Anne, I cannot remember --
SAVAGE: Anne Hendershott, who wrote, I forget the name of her book, great book, The Politics of Deviance. Yes, yesterday. She's brilliant. So, what's on your mind, Rooney? Let's do it. A minute or less.
CALLER: Well, there are several things on my mind. But if you can apply your singular knowledge to this topic, and combine with her to co-author a guidebook on this subject, the world could be saved from the militant homosexuals.
SAVAGE: Well, it's a very powerful movement, Rooney, that you're talking about. It owns the media. It owns Hollywood. It owns the agencies that pick the actors for the roles in Hollywood. It owns virtually everything that happens in Hollywood, Rooney. You got to understand that all the imagery, without variance, almost every image is vetted by this particular subculture. Do you understand that? This cult determines what images will go out to the world. And that's the problem we're having right now, Rooney, and it's too big a topic for me to deal with at this time on the last day of the radio for this year. I don't mean to cut it. It's a great topic. Trust me. It's a great topic.
But everything I've just said is verifiable. Every statement I just made will be mocked by these scum in this organization I have mentioned, the front group for Hillary Clinton, who will drop them. You want me to make a prediction for 2007? Here's my prediction: Within 2008, Hillary Clinton disconnects from Media Matters. She disconnects from that Frankenstein that she created. Mark my words. Mark it down right now. She'll disconnect from them the way she did from that fake rabbi in Berkeley, who almost destroyed her and Bill Clinton's connections to the Jewish people because he was such a lunatic. I knew this guy, I met him in Berkeley. The guy picked up a knife and tried to stab one of his girlfriends. He used to foam at the mouth. That was the rabbi she picked, you hear this, to represent the Jewish people. So I know where these people come from. So when I tell you, "Liberalism is a mental disorder," I'm not just making it up. I'll be right back.
[...]
SAVAGE: Free speech is at stake. So if you have an extra 10 bucks, send it to us. I can guarantee you that it will go to a very, very good cause. And it goes well beyond this one man and this one case. And I have stopped talking about it for a couple of days, but I don't want you to stop thinking about it. We're gonna update you regularly on our rights, which are at stake in the Michael Savage case, on a regular basis.
Hillary is sinking like a rock. Eventually, she'll come to understand that it's not just her negatives, it's not just her husband, it's not just her attack on Barack Obama -- it's the fact that people are onto her. It's also the fact that she's deeply connected to groups like Media Matters, and most independents do not like the connection to this slimy, Soviet-style hate group.
And the faster she gets up there and says, "I've disconnected from the group I helped form, Media Matters," I think her campaign, frankly -- although I'm not a fan of Hillary's, I certainly, you know, respect her right to run -- I think the faster she disconnects from this hate group, Media Matters, and disavows them for their miserable Soviet tactics, I think she'll do better as a result of that.
On my website, Muslim prison converts wanted to kill Jews and other military persons. They were radicalized in jail by a Pakistani. That's right.
He forgot the gay mafia!!!
and he forgot that "origin" and "Oregon" are two different words!
I can't believe this guy is considered a successful radio personality.
OK, I admit the drunk part is correct, but I never knew Savage was a commedian. I mean, he respects Hillary's right to run? Everything he says about us is verifiable? Man, someone call comedy central! He's got shame!
You're DRUNK? After last month's intervention? I thought we agreed that there'd be yokels, cretins, snitches of all varieties, snitches, perverts, and scum.
BUT NO DRINKING! We want to set a good example For The Children.
I blame it on christianity. The priest said "blood of christ" and I kept going back for more.
Per the headline, I thought Mikey was under the weather. The transcript is a fine fettle of fanatic froth. (insert obligitory soviet joke), sorry caller above thats all I'm good for right now. I'm sure someone will come with something to outrage your delcate sensiblities.
"and a bunch of stamp collectors in New Hampshire.."
Now that's actually an inspired line. Very funny. Someone should bottle this guy, and then do some heavy filtering.
and damn proud of it, mister.
well...
the funny thing is this:
the only word i can think of to describe Weiner would be a gross insult to vinegar, water and the package in which they sometimes travel.
I guess having an NYT profile brings out the best in you.
The funny thing is that his comments regarding the culinary nitpicking of his original comments came from some jackass troll in the comments section in a pathetic attempt at humor. He is practicing the right-wing's new favorite tactic of taking reader comments and perpetrating them as content.
YOU MEAN WE'RE ALL GONNA BE FAMOUS!! ;-)
The funny thing is that his comments regarding the culinary nitpicking of his original comments came from some jackass troll in the comments section in a pathetic attempt at humor. Jawill
That was Fin I am, number one fan of Mikey the Weiner Dawg Savage.
Just getting here so forgive me if this has already been pondered, but Mike seemed pretty inflamed, as if maybe he had been publicly rebuked or repudiated. I wouldn't doubt he's been trolling this site himself and got a metaphoric mudhole stomped in his back and now is gettin' his final say.
He's that petty sort of a priss. I wouldn't put such a thing past him and I don't doubt the cunning linguistic ablilities of the many fine posters in this community.
(Savage) referred to Media Matters for America as "yokels and drunks," "cretins," "rat snitches," "snitch perverts," "snitches out of the ex-Soviet Union," and "scum."
And all this time I thought we were just gay...
Vermin, where's my vermin label. Look Weenie, I feel left out....vermin should rank higher than "drunks".
But....we already knew that.
Savage is now on a much needed xmas break. Merry christmas Mike: give 'em chit next year.
Hoo Ha.
You mean we already knew that the Wienerdog was an insane, bloviating cretin? Why yes we did.
GOD BLESS SAVAGE!!!!
////stfu RDDBs!!!!
He needs a blessing. I think it would best come in the guise of massive doses of an antipsychotic.
I'll take the Yokel label. Now, who wants to be the Drunk, the cretin, the rat snitch, snitch pervert, or the scum label?
Come on, we have to prove him right!
I don't know, have you seen the competition?
Snoopy, is that for real?
Totally for real. The school exists, the students exist, the film exists, and the uncut version? Best $5 I ever spent.
If it is, I guess they really needed those condoms.
I didn't see them putting them on at the campsite. Maybe they were the balloons?
JJ, forgot to mention, but if you ever drove through Waco I'm sure you would recognize the brick tower displayed on the home page of the website! <tee hee!>
Get Out!
Snoopy the information you cited is questionable. I think that these rather idiotic kids are no representation of conservatives, they're just some wild kids with a penchant for hypocrisy.
Guess you didn't watch the clip. Buy the movie dude and see for yourself, they are YOUNG REPUBLICANS.
Still not representative of conservatives. I must say when I go into the wilderness, I go wild in a different sort of way. Such moral decadence is available on both sides of the spectrum, predominantly on the left.
“I must say when I go into the wilderness, I go wild in a different sort of way.”
Pray tell FINARFIN, don’t just stop there! I think I’m getting excited.
"Such moral decadence is available on both sides of the spectrum, predominantly on the left."
So you people really do think you have some sort of lock on sexual morality? (Sorry for the question, but brainwashing is a hard concept for me to phantom.)
Wake up! Everyone knows that it's the Conservatives who are the cretins and valueless. Why else would they try selling it so hard?
Hear, hear!

I LOVE that site! Almost as much as this one!
Conservatives stand for something: God, country, patriotism, and freedom.
Liberals stand FOR SOMETHING ELSE: socialism, defeatism, and tyranny(of BIG GOV'T) .
Nah more like Conservatives stand for starving children to save a buck, getting as many Americans killed as they possibly can, crony capitalism, and electing the stupidest possible people to high office
Please be serious. Nobody stands for those things. Those things may very well be after-effects of republican decision making, but they are certainly not conservative beliefs.
Just as you know there is a difference between a true liberal and a progressive; there is a similar difference between a republican and conservative.
Get serious yourself. Nobody stands for socialism, defeatism or tyranny. Or do you only have the ability to condemn those who cast a negative light on the rightwing worldview?
"Nobody stands for socialism, defeatism or tyranny."
I can pretty much agree. The only thing that bugs me here (if the democrats supposedly do not stand for deafeat), is that now that things are clearly going well in Iraq, why won't the democrats get behind it so we can finish more quickly, and get out?
Oh, what a lovely door you've opened. I think I'll walk through it:
I must say when I go into the wilderness, I go wild in a different sort of way.
Nah, I'll leave it to the group.
Such moral decadence is available on both sides of the spectrum, predominantly on the left.
Actually, FishyFin, it has been my experience that the louder one preaches against "moral decadence" the more assured I am that one is a real freak.
I'd love to see your videos sometime....
My comments about the wilderness where in response to a previous poster's link to a scandalous documentation of conservatives gone wild.
What i meant was to get in touch with my primal self, hunt endangered species, commune with the great spirit and the like.
Still, the conservative values have an effect on a lot of people's lives, for not every conservative is a decadent hypocrite. Just the ones you tend to hear about. In which instance would one be prone to depravity, when it is condoned or encouraged?
"...the conservative values have an effect on a lot of people's lives, for not every conservative is a decadent hypocrite."--Farafin
While all Conservatives are not decadent hypocrites, it may be true that all decadent hypocrites are Conservatives.
Maybe now Flimflam will back off the idea of breeding his/her super race of conservative White people. Because all conservatives aren't hypocritical freakazoids. So you should stop labeling people and stereotyping.
Lynn, I'm not sure you were replying to me, but if you were, here's what I wrote:
"While all Conservatives are not decadent hypocrites, it may be true that all decadent hypocrites are Conservatives."
I don't think I was labeling anyone by saying it may be true. I actually know a couple of decadent hypocrites, and they happen to be conservative. This doesn't mean they all are, but I know of no Liberals who fit this bill.
No Therick I wasn't addressing that to you. I was actually being facetious and poking fun at the finfan racist girl/guy who loves to stereotype Blacks and their lack of intelligence and morals; but amazingly she/he took special offense at what she/he perceived as some one stereotyping her own superior peeps White conservatives. I understood exactly what you were saying. Sorry for the confusion.
Thanks for clearing that up. :-)
"who loves to stereotype Blacks and their lack of intelligence and morals" -Lynn
Are you quoting me with that statement? I can assure you that I never said such things. By saying that I stereotype "blacks and their lack of intelligence" You say that there is a lack of intelligence in blacks, I just stereotype it. Personally I disagree with such a statement, there certainly is a large number of intelligent blacks, but there are proportionatly less than in other races. Basically blacks have an AVERAGE intelligence level that is lower in comparison to other races. About the lack of "morals" in blacks, I utterly disagree, I make a point of this because I know (and you know) that many white supremacists attribute a 'moral' inferiority to blacks. I think that morally all people have the same potential. Morals are particular to the human specie rather than a particular race.
I must say when I go into the wilderness, I go wild in a different sort of way.
What i meant was to get in touch with my primal self, hunt endangered species, commune with the great spirit and the like.
*LMAO* I’ll just bet you do ‘touch” your primal self and call him ‘the great spirit’...... Sorry but that's funny. I must say that is the first time I’ve heard going into the bushes to take yourself in hand described like that. Gotta give you conservatives credit for creativity.
Your ability to find obscure connections astound me. That was actually not at all amusing, it was childish and crude. You took the sentence fragments out of context and interpreted them as something they are not. Do not further foul up my mind with disgust as you've already done.
Not only was that funny, Pearlene, but I think Fin's mind has already been fouled by the Savage beast. I think I'll call him Uncle Cracker again to further foul his mind. Oh but that would make me a racist against the "beautiful white race". So I guess I'll have to refrain. Start lecture now.
Juliajayne, and they say liberals have no sense of humor. ;-)
Thanks for the intro. I shall not go on about race, I think no matter what i say it will make no difference. But I am glad you have realized that racism works both ways.
Racism works both ways? While I believe this might/could be true, could you provide an example or two of how whites have broadly been supressed?
Didnt you KNOW? Us poor White Christian American Males are the most oppressed group in the history of world
An example? but of course, only it occurred a longer time ago, you may have to dabble in that repulsive thing called history again. Whites have been suppressed by other whites, as blacks have been oppressed by other blacks. Take for example the fact that prior to the conquest of Constantinople by the Ottomans the main source of slaves for western Europe for a long(er) time where the WHITE Slavs. Whites where also oppressed during the Mongol conquest/rule of eastern Europe. There are also examples of the oppression of the Irish, And in roman times of the barbarians. I realize that these examples do not constitute broad oppression. I think that black slavery is viewed out of historical proportion by most people. The enslavement of Native Americans was brutal yet i find it is overshadowed by black slavery.
The point is that just because a certain race suffered PAST oppression does not excuse racism and racist acts against its FORMER oppressors.
It was hirlarious, but true.
Still not representative of conservatives.
Well, let's see...
David Vitter
Larry Craig
Newt Gingrich
Trent Lott
Tom Delay
Who was it with pages?
etc. etc. etc.
and the list goes on. I'd say those kids do represent today's right wing conservatives!
I believe the Page chaser was Mark Foley. But there's just so many of them, it's hard to keep track.
I think the lesson to be taken from this video is that most everyone engages in this type of activity at some point or another, and if you don't, you're not in the norm. The main difference between Conservatives and Progressives is Conservatives deny it, and are thus never true to their self.
Well I dont know about that but I am certain that the kind of abject stupidity we are talking about is predominatly on the RIGHT
Thanks for the link, Snoop ..
Those kids have great futures in the Republican Party!!!
I disagree because from the trailer, it looked like they all were engaging in normal, consentual sexual activities. The Republican party really prefers freaky, non-consentual, closeted, potentially illegal activities.
yeah Savage discussed about the YOUNG Democrats party they had in SF a few months ago, with public anal sex.
Tell me what a snitch pervert is and I may be a taker.
Is a rat snitch the new kind of rat they just discovered in the rain forest?
I'm just afraid of having to pay the piper. I wonder exactly what's gonna happen to all of the MMFA rat finks, yokels, and drunks then. I'm scared.
Well I will go for it as long as we understand that Savage is not even a human being....what this evil entity is in reality is a SECRETION out of the backside of Lucifer Itself where, in place of where the Soul should be, is nothing but a rancid abscess full of the puss of Evil itself. This secretion should have it's arms and legs chainsawed off, rolled into a prison cell house, and turned into a b..t..c.h for the enjoyment of the inmates.
WOW, dont hold back now.
Although I disagree with your rant, I respect it's creativity and cold hearted-ness. Next time I really need to be hateful and/or make graphic death threats towards someone, I will be sure to consult my local progressive. I mean...cut off the arms and legs, and toss what is left into a prison to be sexually abused? That puts "drunks, yokels, scum, cretins" to shame.
I'll volunteer for cretin, if I can spell it kretin.
I've had it with this guy. I can handle the drunk part as its how we cope with living through the New Hampshire winter but the yokel thing is a low blow by comparison to Massachussets which we consider to bemore backward then us. the rat snitch stuff is just hear-say. So c'mon by Savage, I'll see if my Moose has a friend for you next saturday night!
Sometimes you just want to say, "Hey, Weiner, bite me."
I really can't relate to that.
Oh believe me, Savage can.
I don't think he likes us. :(
Actually, the most interesting thing in this whole rant was when he threatened MMFA with what is going to happen to them after the first of the year. It sounds as if his legal team (the same ones who sued the Counsel on American-Islamic relations) is planning some kind of lawsuit against MMFA. It will be interesting to see how he claims he is a victim of direct quotes. Then again, anyone who has to listen to his nonsense really is a victim.
Sounds like a no win situation for savage. Say he wins - well, we can start going down the list! Red State, little green turdballs, etc. etc. etc. - so long suckers, savage screwed you!
And if he loses? Oh Michael Savage, time to take your medicine!
Weiner has said on his show that he is looking into suing MMFA for providing CAIR with the tape of his "let's kill the Moslems" show. I think that's the New Year's surprise he's refering to. I would love to see him take more than he can chew.
"" This is how sick they are. Well, they actually looked up one of my mother's favorite dishes."
THAT's the best he's got???
Oh yeah, looking up recipes -- that's a special kind of sick.
Michael Thavage is more fun than Bill O'Reilly on acid.
For all we know, Michael Savage IS Bill O'Reilly on acid!
Savage mocks MediaMatters and I cannot believe they took the bait. Reading the article, instead of them picking out the damaging content as usual, they transcribed the parts in which savage makes a mockery of them. I liked "go milk a cow", I think I'll get a chance to use it before the day is done.
I actually prefer my Pelmeni with meat and onion stuffing, well spiced and with a touch of vinegar. Tis delicious.
It wasn't funny the first time, and it sure as hell ain't funny now!
Yawill, what are you reffering to?
habla espanol? I'm sure you know the "J" in spanish is a "Y" sound. Kinda makes me question your whole "My race is superior" stance.
Actually I was referring to the German pronunciation of the letter J.
I guess if anyone here is a master at baiting it would be you...
I can see where I shouldn't have been so timid above. Just more creative.
Good boy!
Go milk a cow. they are the ones without the horns. gloves are optional.
"Go milk a cow. they are the ones without the horns. gloves are optional."--Fanarfin
I'll milk the cow that's not wearing gloves.
[by the way, many cows do have horns]
Took the bait. You hiveminders really are brainwashed. You actually buy that silly defense cooked up by Limbaugh that when they say outrageous unsupportable BS then get CALLED on it, that its just bait for groups like media matters. How dumb do you have to be to buy that transparent bilge? You are like a windup hivemind doll. They feed you your lines and pull your strings and you repeat the dumbest things imaginable as if they made sense.
Reading your post i was anticipating a reason as to why MMFA was not baited by Savage. I was unfulfilled, you finished with the usual "hiveminder" spiel.
Savage was mocking MediaMatters, He really gave them no reason to post another article. Unless of course name-calling is considered misinformation.
he told a caller to "go gargle with rogain" i lol'd
i love how mm points out how they 'repeatedly note': "Media Matters is not an avowedly political institution, but a nonpartisan, progressive nonprofit that is unaffiliated with any political party or candidate."
i call bs to the nth! go look up what 'nonpartisan' means... then go look at how many articles you have defending hillary and co. from the 'right wing bias' vs. any republicans from left wing media... oops, there went any credibility.
Media Matters for America is a Web-based, not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media.
I know that's a tough concept for you to understand, but all I can do is keep posting the truth in the vain hope that one day you will actually understand what that means.
sounds fine when you leave the'non-partisan' part out. it fine for you to have a web site to bash on conservatives... just don't pretend to be what you are not. even limbaugh has always admitted his partisanship... media matters likes to pretend to be a legitimate source of information when all they do is skew anything they can out of context to fit with a democratic party line. it's great for entertainment though. me and my buddies like to laugh at the stuff you find newsworthy and offensive. thanks for the fun.
You and your buddies must have an IQ of 165 combined.
That would at least triple yours.
Well, all I can say is (to quote Rush), "IT'S A BADGE OF HONOR"!
You think we can crack him?;)
I can't even finish reading this story. I'm laughing so hard I can't see and I think I'm gonna pee my pants!
OMG! We're being threatened by THE WEINER!
"rat-snitches" - He sounds like some 6th grader who just got turned in for taking someone's lunch money!!! LOL
"They're vile, disgusting, demented creatures" - Well even if this were true, and it wasn't just the pot calling the kettle black - at least we're vile, disgusting, demented creatures with brains!
Maybe Rush will send him some Oxy to calm him down a bit.
My God! It just cracks me up the way that MMFA gets under their skins. They know that there's someone out there screwing up their lying gig, and eventually it'll cost them $$$.
HEY SAVAGE! GO SCREW YOURSELF. AND DON'T TELL YOURSELF; "Not tonight, I got a headache."
Let the right-wing bigots claim Mikey Savage Weiner and the Weiner Nation as their own. Mikey Savage Weiner IS the right wing. Along with Tranny Coulter, OxyMoron Limbaugh, GodHatesFags Freddie Phelps and the rest of the nauseating crew. The more they spew, the sicker normal America gets.
"Tranny Coulter...The more they spew, the sicker normal America gets."
I hate Coulter, but you shouldn't make jokes at the expense of transsexuals like that. According to progressives, aren't the transexuals part of your idea of "normal America?" I mean, transsexuals are more normal than your grandfather who fought in WWII, right?
I think Savage's radio career will be coming to an end, either by him or his bosses. He's losing advertisers who refuse to associate their brand with his venom. The man is near retirement age, and I think he's giving his last best shot to those he despise.
I can tell you Fox News producers and Sean Hannity can't stand this guy. Sean said Savage his anger issues.
Weiner proves once again that he is indeed the missing link...minus a few critical chromosomes.
What does it say about Americans that Weiner actually has an audience? It would be great if Weiner was cancelled because of low ratings, but if the published numbers are accurate, he is the third most listened to talker on the radio. Hatred has a large audience, and that is the scary fact that Weiner's ratings point out.
Mark: I find it scary that Jerry Springer has a large audience too. Same demographics here – morons who bask in the thought of poking fun at others. It makes them feel better about themselves.
Yes, it says a lot about the soul of America. And of course these are the very same hapless sheep that are also being taught that social and moral decline in this country is the result of things like migrant workers, gays, affirmative action, etc. - and who continue to blindly propagate these falsehoods like a bunch of mimicking parrots. Conservatives also love to preach about liberals as being "people unwilling to take responsibility for themselves" - talk about the pot calling the kettle black!
Advertisers who promote this sort of drivel are as much to blame as the mouthpieces themselves.
PJ: While I agree that Springer's ratings are also a sad commentary on American culture, it is different. Springer represents the same mentality of the old circus sideshow. "Come here and look at the freaks." There is never a shartage of morbid curiosity that people have for the spectacle. I have always wondered why anyone would go on Springer as a guest, since the whole purpose of the show is for the audience to feel superior to the various guests they have on. But I am not surprised that some people watch the train wreck that is the Springer show. Weiner, though, is different. He appeals to people's worst instincts by making hatred toward others somehow noble and patriotic. The way he throws around terms like "vermin", "scumbags", etc., etc. allows his listeners not to feel bad about their prejudices, but to revel in them, to feel proud of them, to feel that their negative feelings should be developed and nurtured because it is the "American" thing to do. It would not matter if his audience were small, like it should be, but it is quite large, which suggests that there are a lot of people who do feel the way he does about a lot of things. (of course, that assumes he really feels the way he says--a lot of it is probably an act to appeal to the hatred in his listeners). The fact that he gets good ratings is a very sad commentary on America today.
"I have always wondered why anyone would go on Springer as a guest, since the whole purpose of the show"
It's simply to say you've been on the TV. I know a couple of young women who were on the show. Their story was a complete lie, but they were just thrilled to tell their friends to watch them.
By the way, after this post do you think that Weiner would even try to say that he was taken out of context? I have never seen such a long post on a single radio clip before. It was too much Weiner tirade--it was almost unbearable to read the whole thing.
"Insignificant group"?
Well the group seems to have put a very large bug up his ass, hasn't it?
Yep, and every time he utters the words “Media Matters” someone is Googling it minutes later. You gotta love the free advertising!
Reminds me of when Lenny Bruce was cracking up, his shows degenerated into him reading news articles about his trials. Could Weiner be close to the end, too? They're both comedians, right??
I love it!! He confirms Media Matters story and then goes on to make a further buffoon of himself!!!
"yokels and drunks," "cretins," "rat snitches," "snitch perverts," "snitches out of the ex-Soviet Union," and "scum".
Give Savage some credit here. This is pretty much a perfect description of the denizens and listeners of Reichwing talk radio. Now if he could only distinguish between his perceptions and his projections...but then that would require a modicum of sanity.
And .....once again, we have another conservative calling for the murder of fellow americans.
SAVAGE (over music): This song is dedicated to the core base of the Democrat Party.Thank you, guys. Give them some rat poison and we'll see them in Hades.
Why does the FCC allow people on the air waves to call for murder?????
When will the conservatives realize murder is wrong????
Gawd, sorry I snitched......
Well, I don't know what we all expect. When you flip over the rocks of life, sometimes there are hissing insects or under them. Weiner is a classic intellectual bully in that he spouts his bile and when he's called out on it, he goes insane (or, in Weiner's case, more insane), as though his decibel level will cover over the glaring and blaring discrepencies of his brand of conservative fascism.
What these guys do for daily show material (Savage, Medved, Limbaugh, you name it) is troll Drudge and other right-leaning Republican apologist-sites for the worst, most radical examples of polticial correctness, social program bungling, minority welfare fraud, Hollywood stupidity, etc. and rant about it that day. The material they rip-and-read is not about typical American citizens, but the worst of the worst and they use it to say,"See, this liberal looniness is bringing down the country!"
Right...that's why even Republicans are counting down the days to January 2009 while some of them still have a shred of dignity and credibility left.
somebody needs his meds increased.
Maybe he can talk to Rush about that.
Snitches? Rat Snitches? So apparantly to the Weinerdog if you disseminate his insane rantings, verbatim, beyond his core insane audience, where people with actual souls and brainpans hear him that is SNITCHING. He knows his bilge is poison and meant only for the deranged. It is SNITCHING to show what he says to normal functioning human beings. I mean that says something profound.
Yeah, I agree. He put his foot in his mouth with that snitching comment. Being snitched on implies you were doing something immoral or illegal and were exposed. It's an admission that he knows he's being dishonest, that he's telling hurtful lies solely for the onanistic titilation of the radical minority.
The guy is ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as his authoritarian followers.
Hey, he said he's going to see us all in Hades. I guess that means he plans on ending up there.
"Hey, he said he's going to see us all in Hades. I guess that means he plans on ending up there."--JJ
Did you mean: he plans on ending down there?
I wonder if telling the FBI that Savage is asking for the people in the democratic party to be poisoned is snitching?
Now watch some republican idiot take him up on his words and then watch him backpedal.
This guy sounds more insane everytime he opens his mouth. And people actually call him "doctor"? What is he a doctor of?
It's true, he's a doctor. He's a doctor of nutrition--a vitimin peddler. That's all one needs for qualifications as a rightwing expert.
MEDIAMATTERS USING IRRELEVANT LOUDMOUTH FOR VEHICLE TO LASH OUT AT SMARTER PUBLIC WITH HIS MEANINGLESS EPITHETS
How's that for a 'snitch', now who did you say was being a 'pervert'?
Relatively Unknown East Coast Knee-Jerk Is Mystery Lacking News Worthiness
Now for something relevant:
You know that latest shooter in Omaha, Robert A. Hawkins had his picture in the New York Times, 12/7/07; A22 national edition, and he definitely didn’t have a “military haircut” when that picture was taken, (caption says 19, story says he’s 19 also.) No it is very unkempt from a self selected image out of habit and personality development over a long period of youth maturation…says who he is and how he feels about everything…and nearly shoulder length, hanging in the eyes. “The Omaha World-Herald reported that the gunman had a military -style haircut and a black backpack, and wore a camouflage vest (Oskar Garcia, Associated Press, 12/6/07).
That’s interesting, so is the alleged suicide note trying to express a desire wanting not to be a burden to his loved ones anymore, and it is widely reported he was an affable and courteous individual. Then you have the oxymoron ‘fame’ versus ‘mass murder-suicide’ dichotomy being hype-marketed as it is shows no evidence of any factual demographic of youth aspiration. I guess every little bit of advertising is the key to success.
Hawkins is alleged to have required taking his step dad’s assault rifle, yet the media doesn’t report his taking or otherwise acquiring a camouflage vest typical of hunting accessories. Or isn’t that important, otherwise a telling omission? Was that vest not in fact body armor or was it for Field and Stream? So a person seeking to end their life, in that case, doesn’t want to be shot and killed, by not only getting and firing a weapon, but also putting on a bullet proof vest that is also styled in camouflage pattern? What possible use is camouflage for the outdoors going to be in a completely illuminated department store and shopping mall? Contradicting juxtapositions like this can’t be ignored. Is the dopey, apologetic, depressed dropout kid with the shaggy hair a slave to such fashions? Who taught him to load and/or operate that weapon, or had he ever fired a gun in his life? Who left it unsecured and loaded? Or let him into a dwelling to steal it, showed him where it was—who were the architects of the frame job? Is it the result of playing ‘video games’, a item that’s given mention as being a recent habit of his pastime with friends after being fired from his low-end service employment. There are too many lose ends. It all says inducement or it all says patsy suicide/murder after the fact, mass murder proxy/dupe leaving the gun on the first fresh kill there in the mall. Could have been the same changeout at Trolley Square—guerilla war to pacify the sleeping giant has to feed it convenient illusions if it is to go on with its reprisals and intimidation up the hierarchy of government.
Hair, vest, gun and mens rae do not line up–Homeland Security and the U.S. Military must intervene subsequent to the FBI’s serious gathering signatures of official corruption . Most people lock up such expensive objects of worship; I think there’s even a law about securing unused weapons under lock and key. How about inducement, aggravated kidnapping-murder evasion to multiple capital murder...compounded by federal agency irregularities, i.e. ex officio corruptions...again?
You know Tricky Dick (Nixon) tried to play this ball game, and they had to make up a tiff with a burglary to do his dirty laundry; but the second try with a spread of terror tactics makes no difference. The Joint smoking Chiefs of Staff infections need to shepherd along the green light to full impounds and removal(s), since the Senate has learned to answer to the aberration of their imposing secrecy waving around ‘national security’ in a simple dropping of the word. That does now leave some explaining.
America’s leftist political trash just wants to look the other way from 9-11 on and talk about their religious tolerance for the rest of us mere mortals. Violent revolutionary douche-bags them republicans, too few in number to tolerate having things fair and square.
Hey Mikey, thanks for gracing us with your presence. Now, be quiet, and go sit with the rest of the 25%ers. Maybe someday you'll be able to reason, and form your own opinions like real people.
MEDIAMATTERS BEWILDERING PUBLIC WITH UNKNOWN LOUT'S SOAPBOX USING MONOSYLLABIC FORM OF INCOHERENT RETALIATION
...perhaps that explains the savage part.
"This guy sounds more insane everytime he opens his mouth. And people actually call him "doctor"? What is he a doctor of?"
Michael Weiner (birth name) He holds a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, in nutritional ethnomedicine. As Michael Weiner, he has written a number of books on herbal medicine and homeopathy.
Look up homeopathy sometime to see how much of a "real" DR. he is.
Better yet, just go over the history of Berkeley, and doctorates. If you aren't a medical doctor of some sort: brother. you ain't a doctor.
Yeah, that is a school of thought. I understand it, not sure I agree. I think aknowleging a certain level of scholarship is a good thing. PHD seems to be the level that society accepts as deserving of a recognition. I see though the argument that it waters down the respect people give to the medical professionals.
What The Savage Rant Says about The Savage:
Media Matters made up of "yokels and drunks," "cretins," "rat snitches," "snitch perverts," and "scum"
When I read this ugly mans description of Media Matters the first person I thought of that fits the billing perfectly is Michael Savage himself. I felt he must be speaking about himself.
His manner, his words, his street level way of speaking all reflects back on himself in a very harmful way. But hey, I guess somebody loves him. He hasn't been replaced or fired and he's a good demonstration of our freedom of speech.
He's a product of his upbringing, environment, and travels to various and sundries...an American success story whether you like it or not.
Deal with it.
Merry Christmas to all.
He is a product of the hate poisoning of what is left of his soul and his insanity.
He appeals to people's worst instincts by making hatred toward others somehow noble and patriotic. The way he throws around terms like "vermin", "scumbags", etc., etc. allows his listeners not to feel bad about their prejudices, but to revel in them, to feel proud of them, to feel that their negative feelings should be developed and nurtured because it is the "American" thing to do.
... and ... to go out and shoot someone some day. The only reason I listen to this guy is b/c I am driving at the same time his show airs and I feel that, of all the hate radio out there, this is the guy who is going to push one of the redneck listeners over the edge and someone will wind up dead. It's a morbid fascination on my part. I'm being serious here - I think he (Weiner) actually wants to push the rednecks into doing the "hands on" work against the groups he hates. He doesn't want to get his own hands dirty, so he keeps whipping up the good 'ole boys hoping that one day they shoot themselves some "vermin." And he hides behind the flag - a patriotic American. Ha!
And what a scam he's got going on his webpage - donate to his freedom of speech lawsuit. Ha! The guy is a millionare and he's asking listeners, many of whom are the old-fashioned one wage earner type, to pay for his anger lawsuit. And I agree with one of the previous posts about the lawsuit - he's damned if he wins and damned if he loses. If precedent is set for copyright infringment when broadcasted comments are taped, it's open season on all media outlets and a legal melee ensues. If he doesn't win, he looks like a fool, and he probably will end up off the air due to lack of advertiser support. At the end of the day, his lawsuit has brought more attention to his questionable speech than CAIR's advertiser campaign.
