I'm for free speech and all, but this is disgusting (Michael Savage)

"Unless we say 'No' to illegal aliens waving the Mexican flag in the street, by burning the Mexican flag in the street across America. That's right, burn the Mexican flag on your street corner, show what you care about, show that you won't take it anymore, show that you're sick of everybody pushing us around like we are a pitiful, helpless giant of a nation that is out of control because we have nothing but corruption and rot at the highest level. Do that, burn a Mexican flag for America, burn a Mexican flag for those who died that you should have a nationality and a sovereignty, go out in the street and show you're a man, burn 10 Mexican flags if I could recommend it. Put one in the window upside down and tell them to go back where they came from, and if that's a little to xenophobic for you, ask yourself why the xenophobes from Mexico wave their flag in your country. Ask yourself why the racist xenophobes of La Raza will not speak English in this country; you'll find out what racism and xenophobia is, my friend."

"...when you bring immigrants in from Europe -- whether they be Irish, whether they be Italian, whether they be English, whether they be Romanian, whether they be Czechoslovakian, whether they be Yugoslavian, whether they be German -- they're from Europe, and there is a melting pot possibility... When you start bringing in masses of immigrants from everywhere on Earth, you don't have a melting pot; they cannot be melted into an American, and that's what's going on in the country today. We're bringing in millions of people from countries that have no compatibility with the values of Europe, not any values whatsoever. And I will argue with you as long as you want on this, if you want. There was no history of the liberation of people in China for example, to choose one nation, there was no Magna Carta, there was no evolution. There's been no Middle Ages for the Muslims coming into America."

Why is this piece of scum still on the air, while Air America goes out of business?

3. Because he does good radio.
His views are repugnant and I'd hit him with a bat were I to meet him on the street, but he knows how to engage an audience via spoken word. Most of the AAR folks did not.

5. Idiot means there was no Age of Enlightenment or period corresponding to it in the Muslim world
Edited on Thu Jan-21-10 09:33 PM by kenny blankenship
in which the dominance of religious superstition and authority over rational thought was shaken off. Middle Ages in the Muslim world they had aplenty, and when they had 'em they were more advanced than our Middle Ages. Their Middle Ages and their careful preservation of philosophical works from the ancient world - which were thoughtlessly discarded and suppressed in Christian Europe- made Europe's Renaissance possible.
