What a sad state of affairs. He cannot express his views.

This is like the Dixie Chicks all over again. When will it all end??

Does anybody actually enjoy listening to that type of hateful ranting? Pathetic.

Yeah, equating The Dixie Chicks with Savage. Truly pathetic.

Well, it's the same situation, if I'm to understand my fellow RF posters. So he said some unpopular things. I think it's shameful that there should be such a backlash just because he spoke his mind. Terrible.

Is this the state of free speech today? What a tragedy!!

It seems like the criticism is more rightly directed at MSNBC for giving him a platform. There are hateful loudmouths on the political fringes, both left and right, but they don't merit employment by major media companies. Conservatives are apparently supposed to feel guilt over something like this, just like we're supposed to feel bad about the KKK. Spare me the mock liberal outrage -- they secretly rejoice every time something like this happens because it plays to their race-baiting strategy.

AB, this isn't race-baiting, this is the homo-baiting. Get it straight. Have you been taking a break from your Rush or something? You need to keep track of our hate targets better.

Where's the outrage? Where are all my liberal friends crying and sobbing over this raping of the first amendment? Oh the humanity!
