Rating:  Summary: Worth a 5 minute read. Review: It's thin, with few pages, therefore easy for most of his "Savage Nation" to read I suppose. I was hoping for a real book here as most ultra right wigers I hear rant have been clamoring for months about this book. I guess ol Mike has been pushing this hard, along with News Max and other corporate media types. It's pretty much the same garbage he spews on the air. Pure entertainment and he doesn't back up a single "fact". Buy it used, cheap.
Rating:  Summary: The Savage Nation in print... Review: Syndicated Talk Show host Michael Savage joins Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and other formerly rarely heard voices from the common sense mainstream in print, with a book that takes the name of his radio show, "The Savage Nation." There's ample proof that this surge of successful "right wing" books has America's socialists and anti-humans, those Savage routinely calls "Red Diaper Doper Babies" or RDDBs, in an uproar. Michael Savage (Michael Weiner) holds a PhD in Epidemiology from the University of California at Berkeley and can be heard nightly on his nationally syndicated Talk Radio Show. His primary, common sense theme of "Language, Borders, Culture" seems to resonate with a huge audience. His controversial demeanor and confrontational style have even sparked a number of anti-savage websites! The Savage Nation basically takes Mike Savage's Talk Show and puts it into print. Now I'm biased in that I like most of Mike Savage's views, so I like the book as well, but be warned, these are views that'll have those who believe in things like open immigration, race/gender preferences and government social programs foaming at the mouth. Sure, you lose some of the trademark vitriol with which Mike Savage delivers his tirades, but the book is a decent substitute for those times when The Savage Nation is preempted by other radio events.
Rating:  Summary: A waste of time and money Review: Poorly written drivel. Savage's views range from somewhat plausible to ludicrous and paranoiac. Not recommended!
Rating:  Summary: Take Back America Review: If you speak one language you are an American. If you look twice at people of color, you are not a bigot or a racist - just a realist. PETA cares more for animals than humans. Partial birth abortions, babies are not human until they leave the hospital (thank you SF for this one), Joe L. can be the Democratic leader who inspires a nation to become religios, John A is a religious zealot who should be punished for bringing decency back to the Oval Office. Let's not get started on freedom of speech and the first amendment rights to freedom of religion. You can say all you want about being a feminazi, you can masturbate in public and call it art, but when you preach in public you are a pariah and should be banished to the pits of hell. Let's understand the fanatics who brought down two of the greatest buildings in the US. Let's blame the US for all of the trouble in the world. Let's not forget the pre-Nazi regimes and the parallels with today's American society. Our society is a cesspool, let us make the founders of our country proud and take back America. The revolution starts today. Read this book - it is the instruction manual for the USA to once again become the great nation it once was.
Rating:  Summary: This is a horrible book by a racist man. Review: Michael Savage's "The Savage Nation" is based on bigotted, racist thinking that should not be taken seriously.
Rating:  Summary: Wake up America Review: Great book. I read it from cover to cover in one day. Really opens your eyes to the Blame America first-America is racist crowd....America is waking up and hopefully its not too late! I recommend this book highly.
Rating:  Summary: Really Zero Stars Review: More crying from yet another spoiled conservative brat who has it too damn good (see: Sean Hannity). "Mein Kampf" was more subjective.
Rating:  Summary: most stuped book Review: he is making america as a hell for peace loving people. he just love war war and war because he is here in usa in a safe cage he dont have any mercy for the young soldiers who r risking their life for the sake of these type of fanatics .
Rating:  Summary: Michael Savage: Everything you¿ve heard is true Review: Liberals like to insist that wealth be shared so that those on the bottom don't revolt. You'd think that the same reasoning would apply to communication networks. Liberals control the news media, the entertainment industry, academia and all sources of "respectable" public opinion, and this control trumps the occasional conservative political victories and endures through them, rendering them unavailing. If liberals don't quite control Big Business, they've still hijacked it and give it directions. Yet liberals aren't as eager to share control of communication networks as they are to have others share wealth. Talk radio might be the only thing that liberals DON'T control so they have to try to destroy or belittle what they cannot replicate. You wouldn't expect the only format in which silenced people can express themselves to always be pretty, and conservative talk radio isn't, so liberals like to mock the ugly ducklings that they themselves created. Michael Weiner (aka "Michael Savage") is one of the ugly ducklings. Anyone familiar with his talk show knows that Savage is a primal scream against liberal dominion elsewhere, and this book, "The Savage Nation" is named after it. You really have to admire this man's courage. It must take a lot of guts for the most conservative talk show radio host in the country to live and work in the most leftist metropolis in the country, the San Francisco Bay Area. When one thinks about how frequently compassionate liberal demonstrators erupt into organized violence, with the Orwellian motive of combatting "hate", and go unpunished for same, it is a wonder that Savage is still alive. Truly. Virtually everything he says is true. You've got to cheer an angry man who says, "Women are afraid of angry men. Particularly in this homosexualized, feminized America. An angry man frightens a woman. If a boyfriend can't be like a girlfriend (with the exception of a male appendage) she doesn't want him. If a boyfriend can't be like a sister putting on nails with her, she's offended by him." Tell it, brother. Or how about this one: "We've got to go back to where America was still sane. Ike and Mamie...a cocktail or two...no degeneracy other than in the closet. That kind of thing. You think I'm doing this for effect, don't you? You're wrong. I'd like to see the fifties come back. A giant step in the right direction would be for society to reward, not vilify, the people who take a stand for decency." I too have always felt that on the day after December 31, 1959, the calendar should have reverted back to January 1, 1950 in order to enable that decade to renew endlessly, so that observation definitely struck home with me. And in this book, Savage also makes war on open borders, multiculturalism, Islamic-sponsored terrorism, holes in American security and intelligence, illegal immigration, and the drug culture, and other evils. Borders, language, and culture are the watchwords of his syndicated talk show and of his organization, the Paul Revere Society, and he maintains the focus here. But while this man speaks the truth, unless he needed the money that the book should generate, it's not quite clear why he wrote it; there's no rhyme or reason to it. It's "ugly", in the same way that his talk show is "ugly" - a very understandably motivated primal scream against the sins of liberalism of which a liberal establishment stifles honest discussion and prevents from being directly addressed. Rush Limbaugh, who by comparison is soft-spoken, politically moderate, and not nearly as entertaining, still wrote two solid books which added some meat to the bones of his philosophy. By contrast, this book says nothing that Savage hasn't already said in a week's worth of talk-show monologues or that he couldn't say in another week's worth. The different themes assigned to each chapter are meaningless, as Savage engages in a book-long harangue against the same set of evils over and over. But while stream-of-consciousness primal scream monologues often "work" on the radio, their effectiveness is limited on the printed page. And Savage makes a typical populist conservative mistake. He divides the American population into three groups: Rats (liberal vermin), Eagles (patriotic Americans), and "sheeple" (the average uninformed non-committal American). And he reasons that if the "sheeple" could only learn about their uniquely American heritage; if they could only learn the "truth", they would arise as one and join the Eagles in politically exterminating the Rats. Well, pish-posh. Savage is naïve in his failure to realize that the majority of people in this country had their values molded or at least affected by the sixties. The sixties no longer appear in groovy and garish psychedelic colors; their sponsors have won the day by growing to an age where they have become the establishment and by insidiously making sixties values part of the plain background. Conservatives should have learned by now that the "sheeple" aren't on their side. They may hang an American flag in their windows in response to tragedy because that's patriotism made EASY and sometimes vote conservative out of "motherhood and apple pie" sentiment, but they would never vote for a conservative who "meant it". The "sheeple" are NOT about to turn on the Rats. They rely upon the Eagles to protect their freedom and a measure of their earnings, but they rely upon the Rats to show them the fun that traditional morality (which is too HARD) would deprive them of. And the "sheeple" have allowed the government to use entitlements as a means of buying off their better judgment. It would mean changing his tone from a pep rally to a eulogy, but Savage's talk radio show and this follow-up book would make for more poignantly effective commentary if he were to recognize a fourth segment of the population that WOULD be Eagles but no longer regard America with love, realizing that the Rats won the culture war a long time ago and changed America into something hideous.
Rating:  Summary: Can This Be True? Review: While liberalism has always shown promise in theory and enjoyed a somewhat natural mass appeal, especially among the young, untested, emotional and wealthy, it has proven an economic, moral and national security disaster in practice...this according to The Savage Nation. The book argues that liberalism is a slowly developing, four decades' old cancer, who's only result will be the destruction of the nation envisioned by our founding fathers... probably sooner than later. While the book is given to exaggeration to make various points, and contains some meaningless sidebar commentary from the author, one cannot easily dismiss its common man wisdom and powerful plainspoken message. Nor can any parent easily dismiss the supposed adverse impact that late stage liberalism will administer upon the lives of their children. The book's message to US citizens is simple: while you slept, the liberals crept.... crept into ever law and institution of government and they are now aggressively gerrymandering the constitution, legally controlling your freedom of speech under a vague "correctness doctrine", determining fairness and justice for you via the pseudo-principles of "diversity", abandoning your national security for political gain, and indoctrinating your children through media bias, educational debasing and the decoupling of parental controls. Shocking in its breath and implications, The Savage Nation is an unnerving work from a veteran author who has published 16 earlier books.
