Helping hate-monger Michael Savage enter the GOP field
Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 09:21 AM by meegbear
On Edit: Giving credit where credit is due

Michael Savage is the third most popular talk radio host in the country, a hero to millions of conservatives thanks to venomous rhetoric like this. Like Coulter, Savage knows what the conservative movement craves and delivers -- a steady diet of hate and rage:

On the March 5 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, which aired at 6 p.m. ET, five minutes after the email was sent, Savage lashed out at "(t)hose scum-sucking vermin. Those left-wing rats" who he claimed "won't be happy until we're all on prayer rugs waiting to have our heads cut off." He continued: "You ought to be happy, you liberal SOBs, that I am only a talk-show host. You ought to thank God that I have no avariciousness in my soul. You ought to thank God that I'm not power mad like you liberals, because if I ever ran for office, I can guarantee you, you wouldn't be in business too long. I can guarantee you you'd be arrested for sedition within six months of my taking power. I'd have you people licking lead paint, what you did to this country."

Imagine how entertaining it would be to have someone like him in the Republican debates, saying what most of them think but are (generally) too civilized to say.

A web poll on his site asks whether he should run for the presidency. There are close to 3 million votes. He
claims he'll pull the trigger at 5 million.

I gave him a "yes" vote to help him along.

I voted yes too. C'mon gang, let's get this party started!

2. gave him a vote also
He is such a degenerate . . .

Ever see his TV show when he bought this cheesy black leather jacket with a waist belt - I guess he was getting lots of comments on his pathetic dress. He thought this cheap black jacket would improve his poll ratings. His fans were calling in and complimenting him on his new jacket. He was so proud - must have been the only "fashion" item he ever purchased.

It was so bizarre.

4. If he is inciting violence and criminal activity, he should be jailed, not elected.

5. I gave him a yes vote so that he can make a fool of himself.
I listened to his broadcast on March 5th. This statement really made me mad. What made me even more angry was when he went to a commercial break I heard a commercial for a Christian concert in Tulsa, OK. I emailed the organizers of the concert to challenge them to stop putting commercials on stations that play these hate jocks. I am still waiting for a reply.

I think the possibilities for humor in a Savage candidacy are just too great to pass up!
