don't be fooled, Savage Weiner is a warmonger who hates all Muslims, he only pretends to sympathize with Ron Paul because Obama did it. If it were Bush you can bet good money he'd be all for murdering an alleged terrorist who is an American citizen without any trial.

What is to fool? He isn't asking us to vote for himself. I'll take the backup wherever we can get it; especially from somebody with a few million listeners.

Yea I agree, but this points out the brilliant move of Ron Paul saying this is possible impeachable offense something that can be easier to sell to people like this. Savage has a large audience on talk radio and anything that promotes Ron Paul to this audience in a positive light is a good thing.

fool people into think he's some good man who cares about human rights, he isn't. He cares about borders, language, culture and he'll do it at the expense of anybody's life as long as a Republican is in charge.

Close your browser and restart something must be wrong with your flash player. I'll update the OP tho with a link just in case you don't get it working.

You are looking at this all wrong. He is an entertainer, that is all. The encouraging part is that evidently this is the message that is selling to his millions of listeners. Or at least what he is trying to sell. I don't care if he is a "good man", I care that he is telling his listeners that Dr. Paul is correct.

[bluesc]

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the power of Drudge. These radio hosts visit Drudge for their stories.

Savage isn't the worst. At least he gave Ron an interview.

Even if he does have an agenda, who cares? He has a huge national audience, and he just agreed with Ron Paul, without any disclaimer of "The guy is crazy, but.." Ron Paul is right, and whether Savage really believes that or not, many in his audience now do, or at least will consider it.

He's a vitriolic dickwad. I don't believe it's possible. At the same time he's adding an immense amount of his neocon "credbility" to Paul, so I definitely enjoy that.

The caller's head probably exploded when Savage said, what right does the president have to do this.

[Feelgood]

Wow! I was pleasantly surprised by what Savage said. My wife's sister is gay, and any time I want to tweak her and get a rise out of her, all I do is mention Mike's name, and watch her face turn red. Its kind of comical. :) At any rate, that was a great segment from Savage.

[1836]

I used to listen to Savage religiously for a while after 9/11, way back. And Savage was a lot different then. I listened to him then because his radio show was violently anti-left, and pro-intervention, and though I held libertarian views on economics, I had a desire to kill all the bad guys like most folks did. I even bought and read one of his books.

These days I hold some different views on foreign policy and a few other things, but I do think Savage is a smart and unique guy. He lives in San Francisco. At one point in his life, he was a big hippie and friends with Alan Ginsburg. His background is in natural medicine. He's a PhD.

I would imagine that Savage is not just sticking a wet finger in the air as some other talk hosts clearly are, to move in our direction on these issues (because they are more popular with conservatives). I think Savage really has changed his mind in some ways. Or maybe, at heart, he always had a soft spot for liberty. Who knows.

In any case, I'm glad he's been on our side a bit recently.

[Maximus]

This is huge, isn't Savage the #3 radio show in the country?

Share this with your Neocon friends.

He puts it perfectly in Neocon terms, "If Obama can kill him, Obama can kill you"

For anyone that is interested, here is an interview from back in August:

Don't forget Jerry Doyle, another fairly big radio host who got sick of the media blackout back in August, defended Ron, and essentially endorsed him a couple of weeks ago:

Savage has the 3rd biggest audience nationally, bigger than Levin and Beck. Doyle has the 11th biggest audience. Alex Jones has a pretty significant audience too.

good...

Here is a longer video of him talking today with more callers, changing the op to include this:

[specsaregood]

good segment

[Chester Copperpot]

this is good

[donnay]

I agree this is good news, especially when Savage is so anti-Muslim--the message is good. Now if the masses would just listen, really listen to Dr. Paul's message we can turn this country around!!

[hillertexas]

amazing!

[FSP-Rebel]

I'm glad to see we have at least one of the big hosts out there supporting our side while the other ones are mostly viciously in attack mode, specifically Rush and Levin. Hannity disagrees with Ron naturally but at least just frames it as a difference of opinion. Hannity either doesn't mention Ron or when he does makes a comment about him in a gentlemanly disagreement fashion so as to not piss off Rand. He also tends to throw in the "I like a lot of his positions" but...

[Brian4Liberty]

Savage is not really a neo-conservative. He and Levin hate each other. Savage has always talked about the red-diaper-doper-babies, which is a dig that includes the neo-conservatives, who are really communists at heart.

Think of Savage as a half-Jewish Pat Buchanan. He is primarily a paleo-conservative, yet he is concerned (sometimes irrationally) about Muslims or others who threaten Jews or Christians. Where he goes wrong is when irrational fear (or paranoia) drives him towards advocating pre-emptive military actions, or when he is using too much hyperbole to agitate against those he believes have threatened him (or threaten a group he identifies with).

[GeorgiaAvenger]

He now believes Iraq was a mistake

Yeppers. He planted a seed.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to orenbus again.

[PastaRocket848]

he's still a weiner.

Why isn't this guy behind RP? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nnIWZm1QU0

Why isn't this guy behind RP?

The answer to your question is contained in the previous post. It is because he is a weiner. Literally.

I think I caught the subliminal message. Still, Savage is against the NWO and has rivalries with Hannity, Levin, Rush, etc.

I think he wants Ron Paul to win.

He isn't part of any establishment. I like him.

[FSP-Rebel]

Rush and Savage have both spent a small amount of time pushing an RP spending plan or an RP article on something, yet neither will come out and endorse anytime soon. I thought Savage would show some bravery and stand out for Paul, unlike Rush after their Paul mentions. Nopesy

Savage likes Paul and Rush likes his spending plan. Big difference IMO.

It seems to me that Weiner is bipolar. I've heard him go manic and insult RP with the same fervor that he uses to describe the other media putzes. His Dr. Jekyll is pretty good. His Mr. Hyde......not so much.

Anger and sarcasm are his medium. I like that, but he is a one trick pony and seems to always direct his anger at someone to a harmless draw. When the time comes, he will tell all of us to vote Mittens/Perry/Grinch/Israel.

[sunghoko]

i think he supports herman cain

[bluesc]

i think he supports herman cain

Not a good idea anymore :p Will probably be Newt next.

[mpdsapuser]

Actually, Michael Savage despises Newt. Not happening. The guest on Friday responded to Savage's question about which candidate would follow the Constitution or something to that effect and to no surprise the guest answered Ron Paul and Gary Johnson. Earlier in the program, Savage went into his usual spiel about not wanting any Ron Paul callers. Saying he is unelectable against Obama but somewhat praising him saying that he agrees with most of his views, besides foreign policy.

He's really frustrating. It's like Savage has this pact he's signed with other conservative talkers but knows Paul is the man but can't in fear of being blackballed.

You should all listen to Mike Slater. This guy is a breath of fresh air in conservative talk radio. Logic and reason!
