How long can this guy stay on the radio? Another five advertisers have bolted from Michael Savage’s syndicated show on Talk Radio Network, protesting the host’s late-2007 remarks about Muslims. Salvos like, “I don’t wanna hear one more word about Islam. Take your religion and shove it up your behind,” might work for Ann Coulter, but Savage isn’t a conservative icon. And he’s certainly not Don Imus. Savage is, according to Mediaweek, the nation’s No. 3 radio talk-show personality, which is already one step away from oblivion. If he does get canned, there’s always the veep slot on the Tom Tancredo ticket. But don’t look for the pair at the Republican National Convention. At best, they’ll be in the parking lot, quite literally on soapboxes, sharing their vision for an America that, if we’re lucky, will never exist anywhere but in their minds. —Posted by David Gianatasio

know-nothings like mr. savage will ultimately deal with the fact that the vast majority of the world isn't white, christian, or believe it or not, even american.

but i understand that it's easier to hide up one's own behind and pretend otherwise. because really thinking about things is complicated and hurts his widdle head.

For the record, Michael Savage isn't one of the Christian white men you refer to: he's Jewish.

he's jewish? jesus christ! then he really should know better than to incite religious hatred.

What jews can't be idiots? A couple of my past Creative Directors sure were.
