Agreed. He seems to admit to his manic depression and obsessive/compulsion. He also seems to be a kind of megalomaniac, but there's something compelling about him, with his New York accent and way of cutting through the baloney. He usually hits the target politically. However, he leans left on economic issues and doesn't seem clear the need for nonpolitical judges to resolve our judicial/constitutional crisis.

I guess that explains why I like Savage a lot. I know on other issues I've discussed and debated here, I've admitted to being very conservative on social, economic and military matters as well as religious ones but I'm more of a centrist/moderate on economic and labor issues. I used to listen to Chuck Harder a lot too and liked him for the same reasons. In many ways, Savage seems like Chuck Harder upgraded with a Chevy 409 engine with a 4 barrell carburetor. B-) Yeah, I feel a bit manic depressive too politically, everytime I think we win something, we lose elsewhere and vice versa. It is a tug of war that will do that to anyone. I guess Savage is like the voice of all of us who feel and think that way but are more silent and/or don't have a huge forum for it. Savage's words can reach millions so I think that's my $0.50 answer too all of this.

I used to listen to Chuck Harder too and really liked him. His economic views never ruffled my feathers because I've lived my whole life in an area peopled with "Reagan Democrats." Some of us just figured out the Democrats left us long before Reagan was elected.

Agreed. For all his failings, the anger and frustration he often expresses strikes an emotional cord in us I think. (The number of responses to this posting is informative.) Although it's a voice that resonates, unfortunately its not a friendly voice. He ultimately misses the boat because America was founded to be about goodness as well as vigilance. I pray he'll accept Jesus and become a bona fide believer who could become much more effective.
