[New Ziedrich]

May I ask a slight favor of everyone? Please don't place one of my posts at the top of a giant quote pyramid. Thanks.

Michael Savage is proff that having a lot of degrees does not make one smart.

Does he have a lot of degrees? I thought he was like some sort of herbal remedy scam artist before. To wikipedia! *hops in the Goofmobile and roars off*

Edit: Okay, it appears we were both right; apparently he has degrees in herbal remedy scam art.

(That isn't exactly fair to folk medicine. The idea that you can learn it in Berkeley is kinda laughable though)

I think it's far more hilarious that Savage went to Berkeley.

For those of you who are unconvinced that he's not an extremist bigot, let's take a look at some of the things he's said:

MICHAEL SAVAGE: So you’re one of those sodomists. Are you a sodomite?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes, I am.

MICHAEL SAVAGE: Oh, you’re one of the sodomites. You should only get AIDS and die, you pig. How’s that? Why don’t you see if you can sue me, you pig. You got nothing better than to put me down, you piece of garbage. You have got nothing to do today, go eat a sausage and choke on it. Get trichinosis.
OK, do we have another nice caller here who’s busy because he didn’t have a nice night in the bathhouse who’s angry at me today? Get me another one, put another sodomite on. No more calls out of-–let’s go to the next scene. I don’t care about these bums. They mean nothing to me. They’re all sausages. Next scene; onto the next scene on the Savage Nation.

-Savage on immigrant students' hunger strike: "[L]et them fast until they starve to death. ... Go make a bomb where you came from"

-On MLK Day, Savage called civil rights a "racket" designed to steal "white males' birthright."

-To "save the United States," lawmakers should institute "outright ban on Muslim immigration" and on "the construction of mosques."

-U.S. Senate "more vicious and more histrionic than ever, specifically because women have been injected into" it.

-Savage on the tsunami: "I wouldn't call it a tragedy. ... We shouldn't be spending a nickel on this."

-ON MUSLIMS: In April 2006, " Intelligent people, wealthy people... are very depressed by the weakness that America is showing to these psychotics in the Muslim world. They say, "Oh, there's a billion of them." I said, "So, kill 100 million of them; then there'd be 900 million of them." I mean... would you rather us die than them?... Would you rather we disappear or we die? Or would you rather they disappear and they die? Because you're going to have to make that choice sooner rather than later. "

-ON RACISM: Savage has said that he believes that European Americans are being erased from America and that he doesn't believe that a non-white majority would treat a white minority as "fairly as non-whites are treated today."

-ON SAME SEX MARRIAGE: On his February 26, 2007 broadcast, Savage commented on Melissa Etheridge's acceptance speech for Best Original Song at the Academy Awards, in which she thanked her long time partner Tammy Lynn Michaels, with whom she has raised two children. He said, "I don't like a woman married to a woman. It makes me want to puke...I want to vomit when I hear it. I think it's child abuse."

-ON TRANSGENDER: On his March 20, 2007 Savage Nation talk show, he referred to a transgender murder victim as a "freak" and a "psychopath," stating that the victim "should have been in a back ward in a strait jacket for years, howling on major medication... What's this sympathy, constant sympathy for sexually confused people? Why should we have constant sympathy for people who are freaks in every society? I didn't say hurt the freaks. I didn't say do anything to the freaks. But you know what? You're never gonna make me respect the freak. I don't want to respect the freak. The freak ought to be glad that they're allowed to walk around without begging for something."

This is his infamous autism quote:

“Now the illness du jour is autism. You know what autism is? I’ll tell you what autism is. In 99 percent of the cases, it’s a brat who hasn’t been told to cut the act out. That’s what autism is.”
“What do you mean they scream and they’re silent?They don’t have a father around to tell them, ‘Don’t act like a moron. You’ll get nowhere in life. Stop acting like a putz. Straighten up. Act like a man. Don’t sit there crying and screaming, idiot.’ ”

Does that sound like an enlightened man to you? If I were a conservative or Christian, I would try to distance myself as far away from him as possible. One can easily see that it's a disturbing trend of degenerate hate speech that deserves no place on the air waves.

Having listened to several of those shows I can tell you for a fact that many of those quotes are doctored.


Edit: And the caller he called a sodomite was a prank caller, funny how you forget to mention that.

In what way? Can you provide something that refutes the record other than your insistence? Transcripts, a recording, anything?

And that makes it better...how?

So the fact that it was a prank called justifies that kind of response and hate speech?

Trolls trolling trolls. I don't see the problem with it.

See my earlier quote from Michael Medved's daughter. Don't know if he shares her opinions.

[Allbeama]

So apparently yet another douchebag I should get pissy about I suppose, but fuck it I'm tired, and it doesn't do any good to complain.

[Callisdrun]

He takes things to an extreme, but overall I am indifferent. I agree with him on some things and I disagree with him on some things. But, this is the price of the freedom of speech. You have to allow anyone to speak their mind regardless of if you agree with them.

I love when conservatives break this line out. Anyone who doesn't like one of their bulldogs is suddenly "against freedom of speech", as if I don't have exactly the same freedom to call him an asshole.

These same conservatives, you'll notice, often get on Muslims' asses for "not condemning Islamic extremists" more harshly.

Methinks they should practice as they preach. If conservatives don't all want to be labeled bigoted, racist asswads, they should should stop associating themselves with cuntcheese like Michael Savage.

Indeed, I for one am thoroughly scandalized by this completely unexpected turn of events. An apologist for a bigoted right-wing talk radio asshole making claims with only his word to back them up, no sources whatsoever? My gods, this is outrageous. Who would ever have guessed? Simply unbelievable. I think my heart skipped a beat with this calamitous surprise. Don't worry, I'll be fine, I just need a moment to catch my breath, having so recently seen such a world-shattering turn of events. What a twist.

[Lizardiar]

I find him funny....Because these people act like it's strange that when they try to argue with him, he starts shouting and hangs up....after listening to his show....you know that if you call, you are going to be screamed at....

We should all call and harass him over and over again. It would be entertaining. Don't even try to argue, just be a pain in the ass to him.

It is considered Anthropology by academia.

So I say he is applying it a litte more broadly then his school would like.

[Parthenon]

Its funny how little all of you understand the burden of proof. If you are the ones claiming a person said something YOU should have the audio.

So tell me... Got his show's number?
