Sounds like he'd fit right in with the GOP caucus in the Senate, after they stood up for good old boy Rick Santorum for his anti-homosexuality remarks.

True, but that doesn't mean that MSNBC has to hire them.;)

Says the man who shouted "WHOOO HOOO!" when all the Dixie Chicks backlash began.

Typical.

Funny how people on this forum will agree with what he says, but ask them if they hate n!ggers and see what they say. What would the people who used to hate n!ggers say if you asked them if they hated the Irish? Behold the changing face of bigotry, that no one knows they wear.

silent majority IMHO doesn't care for sausage eaters. Guy is a jerk but he is catering to a part of the US market that not too many media outlets dare to. Regardless of what you think the guy has a right to speak his mind, MSNBC has a right to fire him over it in this PC pro-diversity climate, and he has the right to ride this wave of contraversy to get better rating on the radio which seems to be his most effective medium. Just ask Bill O'rielly which is bombing on the radio but is good on TV...

I really thought he sad stuff just to piss people off so i didn't bother watching like most.

The conservatives use to yell about the Jewish dominated media now they yell about the liberal
media.

Savage is a tool, I am a conservative and hate the fact that I am sometimes lumped into the same pool as this guy.

Savge is a hateful person. He is the only one who knows anything in his mind and anyone who disagrees with him is an idiot.

I truely hope that whom ever is footing the bill of his radio show can get him off the air too. He is not the voice of most americans but is the voice for a small sect of people who claim to be conservative.

Savage is entertaining to listen to on an occasional basis, but I can only take so much of his rancor before I have to change the station. On another note, how can you not like Phil? That guy is a riot!

Yeah....we know. "I hate liberals" and "I hate democrats" seem to be the only two sentences in your arsenal. Truly the deepest of thinkers you are.
