Michael Savage's ultimate gaffe tonight

[Erika]

He dedicated his show to the marines, starting off with the Marine National Anthem, followed by praise for the 9 marines of the 82nd Airborne who lost their lives in Iraq yesterday.

Republican chickenhawks says it all.

[mduffy31]

1. There is no greater insult to a soldier

than to be called a marine and vice versa.

[Cobalt-60]

2. they'll all be looking for the weiner

[Erika]

4. I know. I learned that lesson from my Marine nephew.

It is pathetic that Savage didn't know that. But he's just a GOP chickenhawk. He, Cheney, Bush, etc don't do war or the military. Thats for others. You would think they would have the decency to know the correct titles.

[SpiralHawk]

27. republicons can be excused for not knowing this. They are almost all

CHICKENHAWKS -- INCLUDING THEIR "heroes" and leaders

Commander AWOL
Dickie "five Military deferments" CHENEY
Limbaugh
O'Reilly
Hannity

Pathetic republicon chickenhawks.

No nothing of war or soldiering. But posture as 'experts."

[originalpckelly]

3. Oh my.

Just, oh my.

Stick a fork in the weiner, I think it's done.

[AlCzervik]

5. when did the army start employing marines?

[Erika]

7. Yeah, maybe Savage can tell the 82nd Airborne that they

aren't Army.

[AlCzervik]

10. i'll call my nephew, he was a captain in the 82nd until he switched over to MI.

i'm sure his former unit will find it amusing.

[sutz12]

6. But if a bear farts in the woods, is anybody there to hear it?

First, the Marines (that'd be us) don't have a "National Anthem." We have the Marine Corps song.

Secondly, calling a soldier a Marine would be a compliment. Not so much the other way.

Lastly, does anybody still listen to this cretin? I read one of his books once. I felt like I needed a shower afterwords. Hopefully, someday someone will realize what a polarizing piece of shit he is and kick him off the air.

Semper Fi. Carry on.

[Erika]

11. Savage was the one who said it was the Marine National Anthem

Secondly, I respect all military the same. But you sound like the normal Marine. My nephew is one of them.

I enjoy laughing at Savage and his callers.

[mduffy31]

12. I respect them all the same

I am just saying I have a friend that is a soldier and if you called him a marine he would be pissed, but not as pissed as he would be if you called him a sailor. He said that he would rather have a daughter in a whorehouse than a son in the Navy.

[Tyler Durden]

23. Hey, Hey, HEY...HM1 Doc "J" Says GO NAVY.

Sailors at least have enough BRAINS to take along a dry cot, good hot food, and enough steel to stop most bullets when they go out to fight.

And I'll put a good Seal Team (OR Marine Recon unit) up against AIRBORNE any day. Don't you know that the only thing that falls out of the sky is bird shit or Airborne? TROOP?

[Recursion]

28. "Hey, Marine, in the Navy they teach us to wash our hands after a head call"

"Yeah sailor? Well in the Marines they teach us not to piss on our hands."

[maxrandb]

30. That made me laugh so hard I almost busted a button on my "13 button trousers"

You know, the Navy Dress Blues with the "Marine Corps Table Clothe"

:evilgrin:

[AliceBlitzstein]

8. what a fake this guy is

Why is he even on the air? Michael Weiner?

[Viva_La_Revolution]

13. Michael Allen Weiner

His given name.

I prefer to call him the savage wiener or the wiener-whiner :evilgrin:

[AliceBlitzstein]

14. this guy is a fake and a fraud

I have probably listened to 4 hours of him, and have also read a number of transcripts and interviews. This Michael "Savage" Weiner is a fake, fraud, unfunny joke and I refuse to believe that regular people actually listen to his crap. I'd boycott any company that would advertise on his show.

I have no problem with anyone saying anything they want, but I don't want my money to pay for a fake, fraudulent, disgusting and bigoted show like this "Savage Weiner" guy. Gross, please we all have enough BS to deal with.

[Jack Sprat]

9. Oh my gosh.

Savage never even had ROTC in high school.

:rofl: Savage, YOU SAVAGE!

THE SAVAGE IS LOOSE :bounce:

[JohnnyLib2]

15. I just woke up. Tell me this is a poor joke or something????

Can't be, just can't be true.

:sarcasm:

[Hieronymus]

16. Check out this bio of Michael Weiner

[krkaufman]

17. Marines in the 82nd Airborne? What a twit. n/t

[cboy4]

18. Just when you think he couldn't possibly be more of a

disgrace.

BTW, I think "Republican chickenhawks" could very well be redundant.

If you know what I mean.

[krispos42]

19. Well, I've always admired the Marines of the 82nd Airborne

The way they fought the excellent submarine war against Italy in the Caspian Sea... well, those are brave airmen, is all I have to say!

Semper Paratus!!!

[krispos42]

20. Dupe... self-delete

damn glitches...

[Eagle_Eye]

21. Savage is revealing a clandestine marine operation

Savage is revealing a clandestine marine operation where they were disguised as 82 airborne troops so the enemy wouldn't know.

[Hissyspit]

22. Speaking as someone who was driving through the U.S. ARMY 82nd barracks area as I heard on the radio

that the identities of the soldiers were still being withheld while families were being notified, I have to say that:

Michael "Savage" is a fucking asshole idiot.

[RebelOne]

24. That's strange. My ex-husband was in the 82nd Airborne.

And I was sure he was in the Army. Do you mean he was really in the Marines?

[NewJeffCT]

26. It was a secret group only known to Savage and a few other well-connected

Republican radio hosts.

:sarcasm:

[hootinholler]

25. That's better than the History Channel announcer saying

"This program has been brought to you in part by the US Marine Corpse" Yes, he actually said corpse, more than once, I wondered 'which one'?

-Hoot

[NewJeffCT]

29. That's like Les Nessman

from WKRP in Cincinnati - "Cheye Cheye Rod ruh gweez" for golfer Chi Chi Rodriguez.

[rateyes]

31. I'll bet those Army Rangers...

know the difference between the Army and the Marines.

Savage is an idiot.

[progressoid]

32. What a douche.

[Ganja Ninja]

33. Thanks for caring so much you couldn't even get the right ...

branch of the service Mr Weiner. It really speaks volumes about how much effort you "support the troops" types put behind your rhetoric.
