On the January 29 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Michael Savage stated that, rather than “tak[ing] our side should there be some kind of catastrophic attack on America,” Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) would “march thousands of us into the hands of the enemy.” He also said that Obama and Clinton -- whom he identified as “Hussein Barack Obama” and “Hillary Rotten Clinton” -- “would gladly take the guns of the American military and turn them first on the American patriot, rather than turning the guns of the American patriot on the enemy within.”
Talk Radio Network, which syndicates Savage's show, says that Savage is heard on more than 350 radio stations. 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 January 29 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:
SAVAGE: Now, are you going to tell me that Obama, Hussein Barack Obama, is going to take our side should there be some kind of catastrophic attack on America? I don't think so. Do you think Hillary Rotten Clinton would take our side should there be some kind of catastrophic attack on our soil? I kind of doubt it. I believe that the appeasement that we have seen is only a prelude to what they would do. I think they'd march thousands of us into the hands of the enemy in order to gain what they would think would be a long-term peace. I think that they would gladly take the guns of the American military and turn them first on the American patriot, rather than turning the guns of the American patriot on the enemy within.
