Michael Savage: Ron Paul supporters are hysterical, dyed-in-wool liberals

Earlier this week we explored how left wing listener supported radio station KPFA in Berkeley is debating Republican libertarian candidate Ron Paul. Just to be bi-partisan, now let’s see how conservative talk radio guy Michael Savage is handling the Texas Congressional representative. Keep in mind that several months ago, Savage offered Newt Gingrich a million dollars to get out of the primary race, “for the sake of the nation.” (Transcript at link: http://www.radiosurvivor.com/2012/01/05/michael-savage-ron-paul-supporters-are-hysterical-dyed-in-wool-liberals/)

oddly enough still based here in San Francisco.

But Savage is ultimately a water-carrier, and the repub establishment HATES Paul. It's so much fun to see them cannibalize

Mitt can break 30% in most places if Ron Paul is still in the race. LOL!

The liberals like "End the Empire" and "Money Out of Politics"
The right wingers like "No Regulations" and "No Social Saftey Net"
and the KKK like "The Civil Rights Act is Unconstitutional"

"Even when he was hanging out among the anarchists, communists, and assorted leftists at Caffe Trieste in the heart of North Beach, Savage says that, despite what some may claim, he never had a leftist political point of view. 'I was more into having a good time and drinking a lot of wine,' he insists. 'I didn't go there to meet Copernicus.'"

And during the '70s Savage was http://www.bayarea.com/mld/mercurynews/entertainment/television/6336570.htm" target="_blank">studying for master's degrees in anthropology and botany at the U of Hawaii and his PhD in nutritional ethnomedicine at Berkeley.
