The Savage Manifesto. Or, How To Start Fixing America
michaelsavage.wnd.com — Michael Savage has some great ideas on how to start fixing what is wrong with America. He read his Manifesto on the air Tuesday. If only we had a presidential candidate with enough balls to implement some of these ideas. Guaranteed to get the leftists on digg into a snit.

- mattowan, on 05/15/2008, -6/+9Please quote exactly where Savage calls for shooting wars with all three of those nations. Don't speculate, please be specific. Thanks.
- SaintDogbert, on 05/15/2008, -3/+8Okay,
Savage says, "B. Iran. One, sanctions embargoes and mine their harbors. Nothing goes in, nothing comes out." Mining Iranian harbors would be an act of war and Iran would attack anybody trying to mine their harbors.
Savage says, "C. North Korea. Destroy their launching platforms, impose a Naval blockade on all goods coming in or out, except food." Destroying North Korea's launch platforms and blockading their ports are also acts of war, and North Korea would attack back.
Savage says, "G. Mexico. Force Mexico to pay one barrel of oil for every illegal alien in the United States of America per month." Let's figure there are 12 million illegal Mexican aliens in the US, and that a barrel of oil costs $120. Savage is suggesting "forcing" Mexico to pay the US 12 million barrels of oil a month, the equivalent of $1.44 billion a month. 12 million barrels a month is approximately a fifth of Mexico's oil exports. How is the US going to "force" Mexico to pay this demand short of armed conflict?- ssn697, on 05/15/2008, -3/+9On his show a couple days ago, Savage was doing everything but openly saying white America needs to attack the other races, before they become the majority. He was talking about a study that showed anglo-saxons would be a severe minority in 30 years, "unless we do something drastic NOW".
He was really pushing the white supremacy thing, saying "you know what is going to happen to us, if they are the majority. We have to do something to stop that from happening. I can't say any more, because they will fire me, but you KNOW WHAT I MEAN!".
The dude is scared to death of not being the big pig in the trough...

- BECoole, on 05/15/2008, -3/+16I really like "B. Reduce Federal Government Departments in size by 4 percent each year, for a total reduction of size by 16 percent over four years."
When was the last time you ever heard of Gov't laying off workers? This fact also shows how dangerous Unions are in the Gov't sector. I'd add a subitem to B - "Outlaw Unions in the public sector and pass a national right to work law for the private sector".- MadKennyP, on 05/15/2008, -9/+6What a moronic idea. Anyone can say "reduce department size by 4%." Let's see Savage point out specifically what programs to cut.
- postingbh, on 05/15/2008, -1/+4I read through the list, agreed with some of the points. The rest were just too vague. But the overriding theme was exactly what you pointed out - he casually says we need to reduce the size of gov't, reduce taxes, etc. then proceeds to name all of the places we should make the gov't bigger and spend more money.
- Hawkeye315, on 05/15/2008, -2/+7There are many unnecessary programs in the government that could be, and were originally intended to be handled by the states and not the national government.
- postingbh, on 05/15/2008, -2/+4I'm curious why MadKennyP is being dugg down. Savage claims he wants to reduce the size of gov't and spending, but his entire list is aboug bigger government. When I look at Savage's list, this is how it reads:
Domestic
A. NA
B. NA
C. Smaller gov't
D. Bigger gov't
E. Much bigger gov't
F. NA
G. Bigger gov't
H. Bigger gov't
I. Bigger gov't
J. Bigger gov't
K. Bigger gov't
L. Bigger gov't
International
A. NA
B. Bigger gov't
C. Bigger gov't
D. Smaller gov't
E. Bigger gov't
F. Smaller gov't
G. Bigger gov't - doctechnical, on 05/15/2008, -1/+4Easy. All of them.

- karishore, on 05/15/2008, -2/+10I like the part of taking back America .. for America!
- lodibug3, on 05/15/2008, -3/+5I put it on my blog! Go Michael!
- IconoclastStill, on 05/15/2008, -2/+5I don't agree with all of it, but he certainly has the stones to point out much of what is wrong with today's America.
- Wolfpack46, on 05/16/2008, -1/+0A. Cut Federal Income Taxes by 2 percent per year over four years, for a minimum total of 8 percent over four years.
When does the economy rocks, when the worker has the money to spend. Dhimmicrats have to buy votes and use "domestic programs" to pay for them
Ok, let me get this straight, my work is peculiar and places me in some very interesting places at odd times during the day:
C. Eliminate all public assistance for able-bodied recipients. Cut off all public assistance for immigrants for five years. Repatriate those who are not working, after two years.
If I got the dd above right this is wrong/take in consideration that I get to watch some of this able-bodies get drunk and be drunk by 10:00 AM.
So, once again what is wrong with this.
Oh I get it now moral value
two things I'll say about the international
Korea; a reactor for Syria
China; holds a few trillions of our currency and gives us a base to stand on world markets
- Tugging, on 05/20/2008, -0/+1Under domestic: Ilike B, C, & E. Under international: A, & F.
Those sound great.
