Savage, on Bernie, with assassination jokes: you student-molesting anti-christian commie retrovirus

I was using Snowtape to sample and record a variety of Republican talk radio stations this Monday September 14, and caught some of the Michael (Wiener) Savage show.

These were cut from two 20 minute segments I recorded. There was more.

BERNIE SANDERS IS A

Schmuck

Liberalism is a mental disorder, Bernie’s an eg of someone who’s on medication, well he’s on medication obviously in my opinion he should be on severe thorazine in a bug house

He’s a retrovirus, not only a carrier of the marxist virus but he’s actually an infection himself

Schmuck, a lowlife of the lowest order a brooklyn commie, i know the type.... if they were a teacher they’d get fired for sleeping with a student

I knew the type, the grandfather stood on the corner of union square on a soapbox screaming about the wonders of communism even though he fled russia

Schmuck

(Bernie supporters) millennials, morons lived in their parents basement until yesterday

The clinton machine will not let him get there- it will be a pullonium bagel or an exploding knish, there’ll be an accident, a little advice for bernie- don’t jog in marcy park (repeated).

Liberty university- why would they let this schmuck speak there? let this anti christian communist speak there?

What does that mean raised in a jewish family, non observant? he was a communist descended from jews!

Let him sell body parts, lunatic, too stupid to invest wisely

We're overrun by mexicans and syrians and this schmuck’s talking about income inequality

Steeped in marxism right down to the dirty suit, died in the wool loser, at least he’s not wearing a pantsuit, now if he came out in a pink pantsuit i’d say he has a better chance at the crossover vote

If he won i’d leave the country

Inarticulate lowlife, bad health, lifetime of mariajuana, bad red wine, tofu, probably enlarged breasts from the tofu, emaciated mentally and physically, can’t he get a hair cut? the breath on this guy, halitosis

I want to ridicule him, i want to tear him apart like a cat with a mouse, i’d invite him on the show anytime he wants,

Moron moron moron sick

Bernie's invited on the savage nation


Does it matter what some self-hating insecure jerk on radio says about Bernie?

Hell yeah, especially if he's on 400 radio stations and reaches more than 10 million people. And it's reinforced by 400 other jerks on 1000 radio stations, over and over and over, starting as soon as Bernie wins the nomination.

And especially if Bernie supporters continue the 25 years pattern of Liberals, Democrats, and the Left in general, and completely ignore Republican radio while it beats their candidates and ideals all day with an invisible 2x4.

Imagine some jerk gets up on a soapbox across the street from your house and starts yelling crap like that about you.

He comes back day after day and even brings a megaphone so the whole block can hear him. Then he starts insulting your family and friends.

And to pay for what he's doing he gets Nike to pay him to wear the Nike swoosh on his shirt.

At what point do your neighbors start to believe what he's saying because they see you giving him the free speech free ride, chanting "sticks and stones..." with your fingers in your ears? Neighbors and strangers say they heard another lying jerk down the street saying exactly the same thing. And another lying jerk a few blocks over. Who are they going to believe?

Liberals, Dems, the Left have to go on offense if anything's going to change.

As long as Bernie supporters ignore Republican talk radio they will not be able to say collectively that they 'got his back'.

If I hadn't pointed out this crap from Savage how many of Bernie's supporters here would ever know? How much more is coming his way that won't be noticed? All it would take to monitor the main talkers in every state is a few computers and some recording and transcribing software like Snowtape and Dragon Dictate, and maybe other software to automate it.

Those aren't just individual jerks enjoying free speech rights standing on the corner soapbox- they're doing it while hiding behind call screeners and sometimes prompted by paid callers, from radio stations licensed to operate in the public interest, and they're often coordinated on important messaging. If Bernie wins the primary all of the RW talkers and paid callers will target him the way they've been going after Hillary for many years.

I keep hearing that social media and the internet will make the difference this time. If I was Karl Rove with a billion dollar bank account what kind of dent could I make in that advantage by hiring and prompting a few thousand foreign trolls- like that Russian group exposed a few months ago?

The only real challenge to Republican radio today are the stoprush/flushrush efforts and they've cost the Limbaugh empire a lot of money. The massive Republican political PSYOPS known as RW talk radio is no longer so free, paid for by apolitical advertising. The Left needs to expand those efforts.

90 major universities keep the Republican radio PSYOPS alive.

More than 1/4 and possibly as many as 1/3 of all Republican talk radio stations parasitize and piggyback our publicly funded universities and colleges. More than 270 out of 600 Limbaugh stations rent the logos of about 90 major universities] and benefit the same way Nike does when it pays a star athlete to wear the swoosh. Many of those Limbaugh stations are the loudest in every state.

In this case the stations pay a small licensing fee (compared with what TV stations pay) for the privilege of broadcasting the school's sporting events. Why would they pay instead of the other way around? Because they can use the association with the school and its sports teams for community credibility to help them draw local and maybe national advertising dollars.

Meanwhile, while riding the school mascot, they're selling hate, racism, global warming denial, public education and teacher hate, and Republican disinformation- the kind of stuff universities condemn in their mission statements and the bronze placards on their buildings- stuff about honesty, integrity, fairness, tolerance, wisdom, curiosity, science, creativity, and higher education.

Those associations with Republican radio make those schools appropriate places to protest almost any important issue until they start looking for apolitical alternatives to broadcast their sports. One university doing the right thing would shame others into following.

That is when many local and national advertisers would abandon Republican radio. Without those schools helping them many stations would have to change format or sell. The upcoming elections could be very different.

Students at universities around the country starting Democratic Students or Bernie For President chapters might want to check to see if their schools rent their mascots to Republican radio stations so a few jerks like Savage, Limbaugh, Hannity, and Levin are yelling over them, determining whether Bernie or Hillary are acceptable as president (and university regents and chancellors/presidents, for that matter).

These 90 Limbaugh-loving schools and many others play an important part in electing Republicans, passing their anti-democratic bullshit, obstructing progressive reform, and swiftboating Democratic candidates.

And if Republicans whine that the school needs the licensing revenue, start a donation drive to make up the difference- I'll bet it won't be much compared to what it buys the GOP, ALEC, and the billionaires those radio stations work for.

BTW, Limbaugh-loving University of Colorado is hosting the Republican 'debate' on the 28th of October.

Who has always been jealous of the successful morons like Limbaugh and Beck.

Also, he would be a lot happier if he came out of the closet and stopped living a lie.

he's one of about 400 rw carnival barkers cowering behind call screeners who are instrumental for creating the alternate reality and buzz that makes politicians like bernie and elizabeth warren the exceptions rather than the norm, makes single payer practically/politically impossible, takes us to the edge of default to force compromise sequestration, delays action on global warming by making flat earthers and fundy fools acceptable in politics, lies us into iraq, etc.

that's why we're in this mess- ignorance of the corporate/fascist right's best weapon- it's invisible to those it most negatively effects, while they waste time evaluating politics and politicians and assigning blame as if 1000 coordinated radio stations repeating the same lies and taking free pot shots at our reps don't exist.

small stations in the southern swamps with limbaugh and hannty and levin and that'd be okay with me.

but competing directly with that monopoly is like mom and pop taking on wall mark. and those stations are licensed to operate int eh public interest- clearly not the case considering the constant provable lying and collusion and coordination with one particular party. they have 95% of the stations and no one can argue that 95% of americans who listen to talk radio much less those who would listen to talk radio if there was diversity, would prefer the condescending ignorance racism hate misogyny and lying or republican radio. that' an insult to americans.

in that sense what they do should be illegal.

Liberals made a huge fuss about pressuring advertisers and stations to drop Limbaugh, with boycotts and statements.

They should have targeted Savage instead. He's a lot worse.

stoprush/flushrush is very specifically targeted at limbaugh and specifically re his misogyny. and it has cost them a huge amount- clearchannel is 20 bil in debt.

their 24/7 pro republican advertising on 1000 radio stations was paid for with apolitical advertisers and now it's not so free, with a lot more input from think tanks and other political sources to subsidize the difference.

if liberals boycotted all rw radio stations and their blowhards it would be one of the most significant political moves possible. the monopoly would fall apart and stations would open up for liberal talkers.

bernie gets the nomination, it can really effect his perception with those who don't know him

that counts. and the assassination jokes are not good.

but the only reason it works is the left has little or no response.

and they have a paragraph about his MSNBC gig down aways in the entry. He went off on a gay caller to his show

excerpt from wiki:

he said:

Oh, so you're one of those sodomites. You should only get AIDS and die, you pig; how's that? Why don't you see if you can sue me, you pig? You got nothing better to do than to put me down, you piece of garbage? You got nothing to do today? Go eat a sausage, and choke on it. Get trichinosis. Now do we have another nice caller here who's busy because he didn't have a nice night in the bathhouse who's angry at me today? Put another, put another sodomite on....no more calls?...I don't care about these bums; they mean nothing to me. They're all sausages.

If an award were to go to the most Racist, the Ignorant, the Most Right wing person who is out of touch with Reality, it would go to Michael Savage. He is a hate monger, selling his brand of Right wing tripe. His brand of talk show is basically Hate Porn. Only he in his mind thinks he is superior to everyone else.. He goes on Homophobic rants. He thinks he is superior to any woman. His heart probably was transplanted to Dick Cheney the last time Cheney needed surgery. He is the worst of the worst, and they probably have to sanitize his mic with acid and vinegar, and its a shame the liberal city of San Francisco has had to put up with him for so long.
