Another Conservatives switches... Michael Savage
I'm shocked...

Did anyone else hear this today?

I was just driving home when Savage started talking about the war in Iraq. About how we need to pull out (he kept asking "why are we really there?"...

Then he went on to say that he now thinks that the liberals were right all along, and that the reason we invaded Iraq was for the "no bid contracts".

He said that wants to pull out the troops and leave the country to the terrorists (he is still Michael Savage ya know) and once they all move to Iraq, to nuke the whole place (I never said he became a Kucinich supporter).

5. He's still Michael Weiner
and his Weiner Nation. Him and Tucker Carlson, among others, same old same old. Just a moment of clarity, but still going to spout off the same garbage as long as they keep getting paid.

2. This fuggin' p*ick does not even believe what he says.
it changes from day to day.
he says these outrageous things just so people will be outraged and talk about him at the water cooler the next day.
in fact, many if not all of the right-wing radio goofballs are on the same track.
there is a pack of them now.
they have to be more outrageous than the guy down the dial to curry favor with a dozen more listeners than the next guy.

I am becoming more and more convinced: these people don't even believe the crap they spew. But there's ratings and money in it for them.
Damage the country? Mislead people? Yes. But they don't give a shit.

6. I have heard a whole lot of far right war bashing today.
I doubt any of them would say they wish Dean was back. But, they may use that angle to smear Kerry.

11. Actually, old Nutjob twisted his comments only minutes later
and said that IF * would say we're in Iraq to keep Al Qaeda from getting the oil and turning the country into Shiite-land and that he's steadfast, blah, blah, then the country would rise up and support him. He hasn't changed a bit, he just thinks * is too wussy! He's still calling Democrats "demon rats" and the enemy within.

Weiner is good for a laugh for about 2 minutes and then the disgust gets too heavy to endure for another second.

10. Wow
Edited on Thu May-13-04 09:06 PM by DaveSZ
That's really something if he indeed said that!


I listened to him a bit the other day, and he basically said we need to use our heavy weapons on Iraq like tactical nukes.

:P

He didn't say it was a mistake though to invade.

12. Neocons arent going to nuke Iraq....
Think about their motives to go into Iraq was profit. There are soo many contracts that companies like Halliburton, KBR, Blackwater, and the defense companies. They have played to their base with terms like "liberate", "WMD", and "evil dictator". This will bring in all the blue collar dopes that listen to El Drugbo and Savage. Iraq has the second largest reserves which the US needs to feed it's oil addiction.

13. Savage was furious with W on illegal aliens - said would not vote W - BUT
in the end he - and other RW radio people - says 'It would be so much worse with the democratic party in charge.'

14. Whores working the other side of the street
Nothing more. They follow the scent of money, and right now, there's some money to be had in being against the war. Don't think for a second that the likes of Carlson or Weiner actually grew scruples.

16. Well, let's tell him "I told you so" and then fly him to Iraq just before
* nukes the place.

Seems fair.

19. He is obsessed with "nuking them" though
I think guys like Savage imagine a nuclear bomb to be a giant orgasm...and when I hear them drool and slobber about "nuking" I know they got a real...umm...lets say.... "credibility" problem, if you know what I mean. ;)
He was really rough on the father Mr. Berg, yet before they knew he was a liberal, he was used as their hero, now they trash him.
