As I said I don't listen much but recall one incident where he had a homo caller and they got into a spat during which Savage was reduced to screeching at the guy "I hope you get AIDS and die." Now I have no love for those of that persuasion but this was no way to impress an audience.
You are right on the money with that incident. No matter how you feel about homosexuals or what they do, wishing AIDS on anyone is just sick. I've seen people die from it and it goes beyond the political realm.
I think it also shows a lack of control on behalf of the host to lose his cool and screech like that. Not someone I want representing my point of view.
