Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review
Michael Savage is the host of The Savage Nation, a radio program that airs on over 300 stations nationwide. A self-described victim of "truth-in-mouth syndrome," he claims to be "the only man in the country saying it the way it really is." His stated purpose for writing the book is to save a "homosexualized, feminized America" from a liberal assault that is "unraveling the very fabric of this great nation." Declaring that "a minority of feminist zealots rule the culture," he blames Democrats and liberals for everything from a general decline in morals in the United States to bringing the Taliban to power in Afghanistan. Although one chapter is entitled "Crimes of the Democrats" (with special attention paid to Al Gore), Savage is no Republican stooge--this "bipartisan basher" reserves plenty of venom for the GOP as well, particularly regarding immigration, one of his favorite subjects. Savage calls for a severe tightening of U.S. borders and vigilant racial profiling in order to combat terrorism and the spread of infectious diseases. He also rails against liberal media bias, big government, the lack of prayer in schools, rampant pornography, the UN, the ACLU, and a host of social ills that he believes were caused almost exclusively by hippies in the 1960s and the Clinton administration in the 1990s.

Like many talk-show personalities, Savage is confrontational, angry, entertaining, and prone to exaggeration, sometimes all at once. He can also be funny and sarcastic. But while he does offer some interesting observations and enough food for thought to make this slim volume worth a read, his book is essentially one long rant with precious little useful information to back up his often bombastic claims. His angry-man shtick may make for stimulating drive-time listening (and high ratings), but it doesn't make for a particularly convincing book. --Shawn Carkonen --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
So writes Michael Savage, radio personality and crusader, against what he sees as the pervasive evils of liberalism. In this raucous and unapologetic manifesto, Savage illustrates how years of liberal brainwashing-from the media, politicians, and left-wing pundits-have changed the direction of America, for the very worst.

Each week almost eight million radio listeners across the nation tune in to "The Michael Savage Show." His fearless and passionate assault on liberal thought and politics has many calling him the Paul Revere of our time, addressing everything from illegal immigrants to PETA, from the "Hollywood idiots" to that "international government" that is the United Nations.

In his trademark in-your-face style, Savage reinforces patriotism, family, and American values, laying out a plan to once again reclaim our country's identity.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Points, Not as Much Substance as I Envisioned, March 18, 2003
By "dsrosen19" (Baltimore, MD United States) - See all my reviews
Mr. Savage, I found out early in the reading of his book is very well educated, which gives his points more credence than I otherwise would note. I have also, since reading, listened to his radio show. As for the analysis:

His Ideas:
Savage is highly controversial and provides the tone in a very provocative manner. I enjoyed his lucid and amusing commentary although he is more prone to attacking than laying definitive substance to illustrate his points. He has a tendency to attack individuals in addition to their ideas, which in my mind, gives him less credibility. However, the amusing character of the sections and the short, easily read sections, allow for a very entertaining read.

Substance:

Unlike other conservative authors like Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, and Michelle Malkin, Mr. Savage does not use citing and a highly fact based presentation but relies on his own words. This is a novel approach in this genre, relative to other recent books, and provides a more entertaining read but i belive this would turn away the more moderate reader or one who is not familiar with Savage's ideas. He discusses EVERYTHING. This is a high point, he leaves nothing out. However, there are times when I would hope that he develop his points more throughly because I like to not only know his ideas but be able to use the noted facts for my own arguments on similar issues.

Who Should Read this Book:

What kind of reader are you? If you are the reader who wants that entertaining read, and wants to know the basis of Savage's understanding of the issues our society faces, then please read this book. On the other hand, if you want the more academic, well documented research that would be used to sway one who is a fence sitter on any of these issues, then it is unlikely that Mr. Savage would sway your point of view.

I tend to not love the in your face style because it tends to make one dismissive of the arguments themselves. But if you want to see how one thinks, and one who is intelligent, Savage has a very nice writing style, and his writing will not displease you. Also, if you happen to be a liberal (or any democrat) then please read the book because you will enjoy yelling at the pages. For the conservatives out there, you will enjoy chiming in with Savage. He is that angry white man that liberals despise.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am a leftist and I love this book!, January 28, 2003
By A Customer
I listen to the Savage Nation every day and love every minute of it. While I don't agree with much of what Mr. Savage says, I respect his edge and the thorough nature of his opinions. He can explain why he wants to racially profile to the break of dawn - it's not just blind obedience to some right-wing objective. He's not racist, he's real.

5.0 out of 5 stars None like it in this genre, January 25, 2003
By A Customer
From the book,"America is hungry for a book that reinforces patriotism, family, and traditional American values. Radio talk show host Michael Savage argues this viewpoint offering an insightful approach to reclaiming and preserving the nation's heritage." This book comes out when America is at its neediest; when Americans are prepared for war at the hilt of economic recession;when Americans need this book the most it's here. I recommend an inspirational book called Dreams by Belcher. It grabs the attention of those of us who are in need of inspiration since 9-11.
