I suppose the NSG approved answer should be "bomb him from space" 8)

I really don't give a damn about him either way. Some things he says make sense, others are insane. Like most "Media Personalities" he's a mix of things.


He had a point about the Catholic Church.

If the government is going to censure someone, it might as well be Savage.

While every thing he says is against my plitical and moral compass... We shouldn't cesure him... Cause everyone has a right to their opinions and voicing them...

So Ewa Beach likes Michael Savage. Yelling at him and calling him insane isn't going to help matters at all; it'll put him on the defensive. Perhaps someone patient could have an understanding, respectful chat with him instead. No, I'm not being sarcastic.

I'd do it myself, except I'm actually busy for once. Could one of our regulars do me a favor and handle this?

Don't listen to him. Don't care.

This thread is terrible. I can say without a shadow of a doubt a good 75+% of you have never listened to a complete savage nation show and are just going off of wikipedia/youtube to make your comments. Dr. Savage is an accomplished author, commentator, businessman, and scientist holding an earned PHD from Berkley and two masters degrees.

I have listened to his show. The majority of the time, he doesn't say offensive things. He is definitely biased, but he isn't a downright evil person. I think that is what others have been trying to say. The majority of his comments are logical, just sometimes I think emotion gets the better of him and he says things that he shouldn't say. He does have a lot of radical ideas that I don't agree with, which is why I don't listen too him any more. I just liked to hear things from the other side of the arguement sometimes. His wikipedia page is quite biased against him, so don't look at that for your first impression of him.

Ahh one of the Dr. Savage bunch! :p You know it's Dr. Weiner right? ;)

I have listened to a couple shows. As mentioned don't care for him and don't listen to him anymore.....

Don't like him, or most of his opinions, but I did find it highly humorus that, after attacking Sec of State Clinton and President Obama, he then turns around and begs them for help to get his ban in the UK lifted. Even better, says that they should do so to prove that they are better than him.

Savage manages to top even Beck and Hannity for bigoted, vicious, and downright crazy rhetoric and that's not easy to do.
