Don't let the fact that Michael Savage and other right-wing talk radio hosts criticize GWB make you think they lean left. Savage leans way, way right. He criticizes GWB because he thinks Bush isn't conservative enough, among other reasons.
There isn't much liberal or progressive talk radio with the exception of the Air America network and some syndicated liberal talk radio hosts like Bill Press and Stephanie Miller.
Also, if you hear conservatives complaining that Democrats want to restore the Fairness Doctrine, don't pay attention. It's not on the Democratic agenda, and no credible Democrat has any intention of trying to restore the Fairness Doctrine. Republicans are trying to create an issue where none exists. Congresswoman Anna Eshoo from California (of course) has indicated that she wants to try to restore the Fairness Doctrine, but if a bill actually gets sponsored and written, it will be assigned to committee and that'll be the end of it. Happens all the time with bills that have no chance of passing.

How about Savage?
At least your post was a well-informed one, and you didn't stoop to the gutter to make your point.
Just curious what you think about Savage, who now calls himself a "nationalist," as he thinks the conservative label got faded in the wash. He's no party hack, that's for sure. Actually, many libs listen to him for his stories alone, which aren't political. He just wrote a book called "Psychological Nudity." Big Al's Tuna is my favorite, but Dead Man's Pants is up there, too.
I am not a fan of Michael Savage...
but certainly don't think he should be banned from the U.S. As far as Britain, I really don't care who they ban. There is a reason we declared our independence--this is pretty much it. We certainly should not emulate them. As far as Michael Savage goes, I am very conservative and I listen to conservative talk radio. I turn it off when Savage comes on. It's a great place we live in where Michael Savage can be on the radio saying whatever he wants to say and I am free to turn it off.
Michael Savage interview
When you have time and want to listen it's an excellent interview. His interview is with Berg - a lifetime democrat/lifetime liberal
http://www.obamacrimes.com/index.php/component/content/article/2-news/43-phil-j-berg-on-michael-savage-audio
Once on that page there is a link to click to hear the show (the direct link was too long to post here)
P.S. - I just heard this on the show and it does bring up a question. Why isn't Obama bringing his wife and kids to visit his ailing grandmother. The one who raised him. Wouldn't he want his ailing grandmother to see his wife and kids? It does not make sense that these could be her last days why didn't he bring his wife and daughters.
it is a term that Michael Savage came up with. But then he may not be the only one. sm
Michael Savage uses the term in talking about people who follow in a group blindly, just like sheep in a flock. He uses it a lot when referring to people who don't think for themselves and just follow the crowd along repeating what the crowd wants them to. And he uses it as a bipartisan term.
Michael Savage -- Priceless...LOL (sm)
So, now Savage wants Hillary to help him get out of the British ban.

Now here's the funny part:

I would bet that she hasn't returned his calls yet....ROFL.
So you'd believe Michael Savage (of all people) over a court of law?
No offense, but using something that Michael Savage read isn't really proof of anything, but the fact that Michael Savage can form words and speak them.
There is a picture of the birth announcement (along with all kids of very level, logical information) here (http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html).
But given the fact that (a) there was a birth announcement, (b) Obama has a valid birth certificate from the state of Hawaii (that I am SURE, if forged, would have been looked into by a number of people who have access to birth records in Hawaii), and (c) that a huge network of people would have had be a part of this vast conspiracy theory, from the moment Barack Obama was born, it's a pretty far-flung accusation and one that really just resembles clinging to insanity so as not to have to deal with a distasteful reality.
Savage endorses McCain - Way to go Michael!
Way to go Michael Savage - way to go!
“You may say, oh, who listens to that guy Savage? What does an endorsement from him mean?
“It means more than you may imagine.
Savage said his endorsement means more than the backing of a dozen newspapers he mentioned, including the Los Angeles Times, Newsday, Chicago Tribune and New York Post, because his “daily circulation is larger than any one of these newspapers.
“I have millions of listeners,” he continued, “most of whom, by the way, are independents. In case you don’t know it, they’re not all conservatives. Most of my audience are independents and they have been waiting for some kind of a signal…
“I have put my own ego aside and I have to say what’s best for America.
“I’ll take my chances with the old war horse and even with Sarah Palin, who I’m not really a big fan of, by the way, over this naked Marxist revolutionary, because I don’t want to see what the next Pol Pot’s liable to do to the world.”

I supported Obama at first too. Now I'd have to agree with Savage 100%.

Why did Michael Savage get banned?? I know the answer....
Because Michael Savage calls a spade a spade and a terrorist a terrorist. He has no use for the Muslim religion whether they are the rabid haters or the mealy-mouthed ones who say nothing. He denounces the so called "religion of peace" every chance he gets; and right so. He is allowed to have his opinions. You know exactly where he stands on a subject. THus, because Britain has caved in to the Muslims as far as sharia law, sharia financing, etc, they hate Michael Savage because he lets the Brits know what they have become and what will happen to them down the road. As a famous line in a movie went...."You can't handle the truth!!!!"
Michael Savage banned from Great Britian...(sm)
http://sweetness-light.com/archive/michael-savage-banned-from-great-britain
GOOD FOR THEM!!!! LOL. We need to do the same thing. I can think of 2 right off the top of my head. How about Hannity and O'Really?
I do believe Savage in this case, cuz announcements in the paper are the same way in my local area..
Where did I say anything else, I was just commenting on the announcement in the paper. GEESH.
Michael Savage, Mitch McConnell, Michelle Malkin...Seeing a trend here? sm
Let the conservatives quizz him because as long as the liberal press keeps giving "The Anointed One" a pass, then he will continue with his snake-oil statements. And he can't speak without a teleprompter. He stutters. From what I saw of the convention, Sarah Palin managed very well. But in the grand scheme of things....time will tell. However, I do not think the American people have that luxury any more.
