The guy has every right to say what he wants. I enjoy listening to him almost on a daily bases. I enjoy listening to Noam Chomsky's lectures equally. Screw the fairness doctraine. Why is it people are soo easly offended. It is people like McCain and Bush that are dividing this Nation. McCain loves to call people names, like the school yard bully. That ladies and gentlemen is where our biggest problems lay. Our politicians need to stop calling people of America names. Like you are not a patriot if you do not support the war. That is a low blow from the right. Why are our politicians NOT above name calling? Savage is hardly as much to blame as our own congress. People, lighten up a bit.

That name gets thrown around a lot but that is what he is. The fascist mind operates on to fundamental themes, fear and hatred. The fascist character is sado-masochistic, lashing out at those it perceives as weaker, and bootlicking/simpering to more powerful authority. Hitler and his thugs were not brave men. They only made moves when they were confident in their calculations of success. They calculated they could quietly occupy the Sudetenland without angering France to war while appeasing England. Fascism victimizes the "little guys". When the Colonies decided to revolt, they chose to revolt against the strongest Empire in the history of the world, and they did it with no guarantee of success; it was more likely they would swing for what they started. That's how un-American Savage is; cowardly, hate-filled, beating up on people (dead) who he knows can't fight back. And it resonates with his crowd of fellow jackals who, sadly for this nation, comprise about 30% of its population. When you listen to Savage, you're listening in a time machine. Savage is a fascist.
