Interesting. My Obama supporting wife likes his "healing children naturally" book, a lot.

Have any evidence that he is incorrect?

(This is what they do).

But once a liberal actually listens to what he has to say they find themselves agreeing more and more with his ideals.

Dr. Savage tends to wash away the self-hatred of many modern liberals and helps them recognize that America is, indeed, a great country and that being a little patriotic and loving America isn't so bad after all.

He is like a drug counselor who has to break through the rough exterior of a crack addict to help bring out the person who was there before the drugs (liberalism) took over.

I listened to him a couple of times.

He's a blowhard, dishonest, self-promoting hate mongering ideologue who sounds really smart to people too dumb to know better.

I'd get more intellectual stimulation reading the ingredients on a pack of gum.

Pack of gum don't have that over-the-top yet very amusing hyperbole.

I've listened to him a few times and just find his vitriolic disposition very disturbing.

He's very paranoid. He talks like everybody in the city he chooses to reside is out to get him.

In other words, you don't agree with his politics so you don't like him.

I listened to him once. I thought it was a spoof. Isn't his real name weiner?
