I posted comment to this two-sided view of Bush on the FR - Savage show discussion and was attacked fiercely by the Savage fans.
Geez, not another one. Savage supported Bush and VOTED for Bush twice. To say that Bush is a MAJOR disappointment to Savage is an understatement, not because he is a Bush-hater, but because Bush is no conservative.
I've heard Savage say many times there's no difference between the two parties and then the next moment he'll say something like but under Democrat control things will be much worse.
Yes it sounds like a dichotomy in Savage's views but he is pretty consistent in his distaste for liberalism whether it be in concentrated form as it is in the Democratic Party or in diluted form as it current is in the Republican Party.
I doubt you were attacked fiercely by the Savage fans as you say for merely bringing up this point, maybe it could've been the way in which you brought up the point.
It sounds like a dichotomy because that’s what it IS.
Either the parties are the same, in which case we’re damned if we do and damned if we don’t, OR the parties are not the same and our votes matter.
