Michael Savage; Complete S**thead, or Total F*****g Wack Job? You Be The Judge.
For sheer bile and unfocused, all-encompssing hatred, it would be difficult to top Michael Savage. That this troll still has a radio show is both a testament to and an indictment of our society. It's a testament in that free speech often means highly objectionable and hateful speech. It's an indictment in that free speech often means highly objectionable and hateful speech.
I think there should be no mercy shown to these sub-humans. I believe that a thousand of them should be killed tomorrow. I think a thousand of them held in the Iraqi prison should be given 24 hour[s] -- a trial and executed. I think they need to be shown that we are not going to roll over to them ... Instead of putting joysticks, I would have liked to have seen dynamite put in their orifices and they should be dropped from airplanes ... They should put dynamite in their behinds and drop them from 35,000 feet, the whole pack of scum out of that jail."
The next day Savage added that Arabs were "racist, fascist bigots," and purported to speak for a majority of Americans regarding the war. He offered several all-American solutions to our problems in the Middle East.
"Right now, even people sitting on the fence would like George Bush to drop a nuclear weapon on an Arab country. They don't even care which one it would be. I can guarantee you -- I don't need to go to Mr. Schmuck [pollster John] Zogby and ask him his opinion ... The most -- I tell you right now -- the largest percentage of Americans would like to see a nuclear weapon dropped on a major Arab capital. They don't even care which one...
"I think these people need to be forcibly converted to Christianity ... It's the only thing that can probably turn them into human beings.
It's that last line that makes me think that he's been channelling Ann Coulter just a wee bit too much....
If Savage's brand of Christianity is what qualifies one as a "human being", I think I'd rather just play Russian Roulette on my living room floor. Yo, Mike, I got two words for you- DECAF.
Kinda makes you glad to be an American, eh? Yes, kids, our brave soldiers are fighting to protect the rights of hate mongers and DUMB@$$E$ just like Savage to spread their filth and vitriol. Sometimes I wonder if democracy is really worth all the fuss....
