What is so brilliant about a loud mouthed ,vulgar hate-spewer who woke up one day and decided if Rush can make money doing this, so to can I? The name-calling and intollerence you despise and accuse others of on this forum is behavior that you embrace when coming from the mouth of Savage. Chinless, he calls the viewer. In comparison Savage has a large, elongated chin, makes a good ball rest I suspect.

I would have to say he was pretty fair with that caller. He simply posed questions that the listener was totally unable to answer.

He also writes a killer column on Ann Lander's old desk.

When Dan Weiner gets a Ph. D. from Berkeley and can articulate himself like Dr. Savage can, we'll talk.

No need. I've heard him before and that was enough. People who yell and make apocolyptic statements get on my nerves.

I never said i despise intolerance, in fact, I consider myself very intolerant of others, However, I admit my intolerance, what I am sick of is the liberals who say they are tolerant, but are in actuallity, hate filled monsters. And as far as Savage is concerned, the caller hurled insults at Savage at the outset of the call, Savage just responded to the caller

Dan Savage is at least as articulate as Michael Savage.

Michael's PhD is in Nutritional Ethnomedicine. What does that have to do with right wing bombast?

Dan actually has a far more limited vocabulary when speaking off the cuff, a testament to his inferior education.

Dr. Savage, like myself, had to endure a rigorous dissertation process and publish often during his academic stint. The requirements are especially stringent in any scientific area of study, even in nutritional science. His railings have limited insertions of "uh". Uneducated individuals also do not understand his ability to use a comedic brand of vitriol, and it is what separates him from his relative dunces Boortz, Hannity, O'Reilly and Limbaugh. He also rails on neo-cons like Palin and refers to the previous talk show hosts and others like them as "the golfer", "the leprechaun", and "hush bimbo". Highly educated individuals who do not act like elitists are aces in my estimation.

Here is a look at his total education:

Ph.D., Nutritional Ethnomedicine
M.S., Medical Anthropology
M.S., Medical Botany
B.A, Sociology
B.A., Education

Can John Stewart or Olberman claim to have any of these? Oh, by the way, Stewarts real name is Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz

I think it doesn't compute for libs to believe Dr. Savage can have all of these degrees, esp. the Ph. D. from Berkeley, and actually be conservative. The worst libs can do is to dismiss his vast education as being somehow "unearned" simply because it's in nutritional science as opposed to physics or some such, ignoring the rigorous nature of the doctoral program in question.

Here's something to clue folks on: a large proportion of people who earn their doctoral degree in either comp sci, math, or engineering are either libertarian or conservative, because they realize the free market is pretty much the largest employer of their research talent.

Savage says he spent many years in the south Pacific earning his doctorate, living in grass huts with tribesmen with no electricity or plumbing on tiny islasnds raising his family. That takes alot of commitment
