LL>RS>I just heard a sound file that is so vile as to be simply...total

Exactly.

LL>RS>In on of last weeks shows, he advocated killing 100 *MILLION*
LL>RS>Muslims. Simply because they are Muslim.

LL>RS>I complained to the station's programming director, he told to to
LL>RS>fuck off, "It's free speech..."

LL>There are limits to "free speech".  For example, try yelling
LL>"Fire!" in a crowded theatre.  You might be "free" to say it,
LL>but there definitely would be very dire consequences.  :)

And Savage is still at it.
BTW, Savages original name used to be Weiner (don't know if it's 
pronounced "whiner" or "weener") and he used to sell on late-night TV 
infomercials vitamin concoctions.

Savage accused "ordinary Muslim" caller of using phone from "bomb 
factory in the Gaza strip"

Summary: In a discussion with a caller he later described as an 
"ordinary Muslim," Michael Savage declared that, based on the caller's 
views about the war in Iraq and fading phone signal, he must have been 
using a cell phone "made over there in a bomb factory in the Gaza 
strip."

In a discussion with a caller he later described as an "ordinary 
Muslim," on the April 24 edition of his nationally syndicated radio 
program, Michael Savage declared that, based on the caller's views about 
the war in Iraq and fading phone signal, he must have been using a cell 
phone "made over there in a bomb factory in the Gaza strip." Savage also 
said that "[a]ll Aljazeera outlets should be blown up in the United 
States of America by the federal government." He later asked, "How come 
you don't hear about there's a billion Christians that could be 
marshaled to defend Western civilization?" Savage concluded that 
Christians are failing to "stand up" because "liberalism has perverted 
Christianity."

From the April 24 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:

SAVAGE: Chicago, [caller], you're on The Savage Nation. Go ahead, 
please. 

CALLER: Hi Michael, I just want to say you don't indict a global faith 
for the actions of some individuals. 

SAVAGE: Now, I've heard that homily before, so, perhaps, you could help 
me and those listening to this show by answering this question. Why is 
it that your faith of Islam is so easily misinterpreted to permit 
suicide bombings and other acts that are outside the can of human 
behavior? 

CALLER: You see, it's not misinterpreted, it's actually, some 
individuals who, in their minds, are righting a wrong, which we all 
agree about, and the -- 

SAVAGE: Wait, what do you mean righting a wrong with which we all agree 
about? So, you agree with them? 

CALLER: No, I don't agree with them, of course, but, I do agree that 
some things, for instance, you know, the Iraq war, the Afghanistan, so 
many other things -- 

SAVAGE: So, you were in favor of the Taliban in Afghanistan, I see.

CALLER: I am not.

SAVAGE: You like the Taliban blowing up Buddhist statues that are 1,300 
years old and keeping women out of jobs. Is that your idea of an Islamic 
state?

CALLER: No, you are missing my point, Michael.

SAVAGE: Well, you just said that it's -- that we -- we did something 
wrong in Afghanistan. How? By liberating the Afghanistan -- the Afghani 
people? Please interpret for me what you just said because it makes no 
sense.

CALLER: OK, this is just what I'm trying to tell you here. The invasion 
of Iraq, OK? You have so many Americans, including myself, who are, you 
know, against it -- 

SAVAGE: What do you mean? You keep saying, "you know." I don't know. 
What? Because you suddenly found the voice in [Sen.] Ted Kennedy [D-MA] 
and the liberals who hate Bush, you think that everybody in America 
thinks it was a mistake to topple Saddam Hussein? So, you were a fan of 
Saddam Hussein? 

CALLER: You see, you're putting, you know, putting words -- 

SAVAGE: You can't have it both ways. You cannot have it both ways. You 
tell me that you are a -- you hate America because we invaded 
Afghanistan and Iraq. That's what you just said. But you're telling me 
on the other hand, you don't agree with those who are chanting, 
"Zionists, you will pay. The wrath of Allah is on its way. The mushroom 
cloud is on its way. The real holocaust is on its way." You like those 
words?

CALLER: Michael, if I -- somebody came here and --

SAVAGE: I just, wait -- wait -- wait. No. Answer my question. Don't play 
Philadelphia lawyer with me. Do you want a mushroom cloud here in 
America? Do you want a holocaust in America?

CALLER: I don't, Michael. You see --

SAVAGE: How would I know that? Why do you say it with such a patronizing 
pained "Michael"? How would I know that? You were -- suddenly, you 
shifted gears pretty quick. Two minutes ago, you were sympathetic, 
saying that we all agree with the wrongs that have been done to the 
Muslim world. I am so sick of hearing about wrongs done to the Muslim 
world! Don't you understand it's a bunch of crap!

CALLER: Let me tell you. This is some of the wrong. If -- if someone 
tries to come here and overthrow our government, would you -- would you 
agree to that? Of course, you wouldn't. If someone came and killed half 
of your family members -- 

SAVAGE: You're breaking up, I'm afraid you'll have to use an American 
cell phone, not the one given to you by your controller made over there 
in a bomb factory in the Gaza strip. So, there we have another one, a 
fellow traveler, and let's assume that he's just another ordinary 
Muslim.

[...]

SAVAGE: Today, of course, three bombings hit the Egyptian beach resort 
popular with foreigners killing at least 21, wounding 60 -- that means 
probably 100 people are going to die over time. Now, this is a day after 
OBL [Osama bin Laden] issued a tape warning against Westerners which was 
disseminated by the hate filled Aljazeera, which should be, as far as 
I'm concerned, blown up. All Aljazeera outlets should be blown up in the 
United States of America by the federal government. The FBI should 
immediately get warrants go in there and rip the wiring out of their 
facilities and arrest everybody in Aljazeera. You know, this is like 
saying, we're in the pre-stages of war with Nazi Germany -- it's 1939 -- 
and the Nazis have an outlet in America called Deutschland ueber Alles 
[German national anthem] and they have a network that they can 
disseminate Hitler's ideas to America and we're sitting here saying, 
"Well, it's freedom of speech. We're a nation of immigrants. It's 
freedom of religion" -- all of the shibboleths of the left. 

[...]

SAVAGE: I had a long talk with a friend that I admire very much 
yesterday. He's a very deep conservative, gives a lot of money to 
conservative causes, but he's very -- he's very frustrated. He looks 
ahead and he says, "They're going to win." I say, what do you mean 
they're going to win? I said we know what nations are the nation state 
sponsors of these suicide bombers. We know they're Iran, we know they're 
Syria, we know they're Saudi Arabia. We all know that. I said, there's 
(sic) very simple solutions. 

You got to wipe the nests out at the top. Take the head of the snake 
out, and suddenly, the bombs stop. He says but there's a billion some 
odd -- 100 million of them. I said, yeah, well there's (sic) over a 
billion Christians. How come you don't hear about there's (sic) a 
billion Christians that could be marshaled to defend Western 
civilization? Why is nobody telling the Christians to stand up and 
survive, or they're going to disappear, or their children will become 
slaves, or be forcibly converted? Why? Well, there's (sic) a million 
answers. The number one answer is because liberalism has perverted 
Christianity. Liberalism has perverted every religion on this planet. 
Liberalism is a cancer. Liberalism is a virus. Liberalism is a mental 
disorder. We are at war and we know it.
