Shock Jock Michael Savage's Big Gay Apocalypse

Posted by Eli , Firedoglake at 12:04 PM on November 26, 2008.

I have this theory that Michael Savage's primary purpose in life is to make Rush Limbaugh look tolerant and sane.



I have this theory that Michael Savage's primary purpose in life is to make Rush Limbaugh look tolerant and sane. Here, let me show you what I mean:

Well, socially, we're far worse -- more degenerate than Weimar Germany. At least in Weimar Germany, men couldn't marry men and women couldn't marry women. So we're probably 10 leagues below the degeneracy that brought about Hitler. We're probably 50 leagues below the degeneracy that brought about Hitler. We are the sickest, most disgusting country on the earth, and we are... psychotic as a nation.

It's a psychotic nation when the attorney general of the state of California, when the senator from the state of California named Dianne Feinstein, when the governor from the state of California who posed as a strongman gets up there and says that homosexuals have a right to marry that's equal to a man and a woman, they're insane. They are fundamentally insane.


Got that? The fact that there was opposition to Prop 8, that there are actually people who -- gasp -- believe that gay people should have the same right as everyone else, means that we are the most degenerate country in the world, and that the moral backlash from righteous people like Michael Savage will almost certainly lead to the second coming of Adolf Hitler. Awesome.

In fact, gay marriage is so terrible that it's actually the single biggest problem that America has, and all our other problems are merely a symptom of our horrific amoral gay tolerance:

You may say, "Why should we care about homosexuals trying to destroy families through the mock marriage that they perform in order to mock God, the church, the family, children, the fetus, the DNA of the human species? Why should we care about it while we have a financial meltdown?" Because the spiritual side of the downturn on Wall Street is directly related to the moral downturn in the United States of America. (...)

The government has no right to force people to accept homosexual marriage. It is why the West is dying. It is why we're melting down as a nation.


So that's the root cause! And all this time I thought it was the Bush administration and its enablers' total disrespect for human decency and the rule of law! I am so glad there are superior intellects like Michael Savage around to set me straight and remind me what's really important.

4. You might want to edit your post for a variety of reasons.
And DU board rules are the LEAST of your problems. You have, in effect, committed a crime.

30. Dude, I wouldn't mind seeing Savage fall into a septic tank. But ...
asking why someone doesn't off him can be construed as incitement to commit murder. That's a crime.

16. I'm sorry...you politely asked for him to be "put out of his misery"
You didn't advocate his death....you requested it.

9. Wow! Obviously Michael Savage has been studying at the knees of men like
Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell. I assume that Michael Savage will soon be warning everyone of the dangers of Teletubbies!!!

What a total piece of rank garbage.

19. And here I was thinking it was greedy fiananciers and corporations who were
responsible for the country going down the economic toilet.

Should've know that wasn't it. Just like 9/11, we can lay it at the foot of Teh Gay.

Chalk up another one for the Savage Weiner.

23. It seems like a valid theory.
Part of the republican strategy is to take up far right positions, calling those positions "mainstream", and accusing anyone who disagrees of being a far left extremist. This effectively shifts the true center of political discourse to the right and makes the center-right the new norm.

It's conceivable that the same tactic is being used in the talk radio medium. If you have some really crazy rightists like Savage and others going off the deep end, it makes the rest look like moderates by comparison. The parameters are now set between extreme right wing and super crazy extreme right wing. At this point, center-right looks like far left talking points.

26. Actually that makes a great deal of sense...and that is why the repukes
who dislike limpballs, O'LIElly, hannity and savage do not mind them being in the public eye. Those totally insane, foaming-at-the-mouth nutjobs make the rest of them look sane by comparison..
