I'm just not sure why, out of all the hate-mongers in the US, they decided on Savage. I wonder if Rush and Ann and Sean and Glenn and Michelle feeling left out? I'll bet even Lou Dobbs is feeling a bit unwanted.

It is an interesting question. I've not heard Savage's show that many times, but when I have heard him, I've thought that he was the most aggressive of all of them. The language that he used was the same kind of "coded" language that the segregationist assholes used to use - especially about gays. Perhaps the Brits were concerned about his "soft" racism, homophobia, etc.?

Surely this will cause the talking assholes to get fired up, though. And what a person to rally behind! Oh, and I suspect Lou will have to be told about it. Unless, of course, he thinks Savage is a Mexican name...

And from last year: Geert Wilders, professional poo-flinger. I must say, I do admire their banlists in the UK.

Yeah. The only problem with trying something similar here is that most people who should be on such a list are US citizens...

The only problem I see with revoking citizenship is working out the mechanics. Not insurmountable. We could pay third world nations to take our excommunicants.
