I can't tell if loveitorleaveit is a goof à la republican or not. See this recent comment.

UPDATE: further comments on this clown's part have made his trollish tendencies obvious.

There's this, which strongly suggests TROLL! TROLL!

yeah, that does read like a troll. I first thought he was really a conservative when I read the first posts just now (i've been spending a few minutes catching up in a couple of journals)..

The trolldar is strong in this one.

I always thought Michael Savage was self-trolling - anybody who takes him seriously by definition removes himself from the dialogue. Or, in other words, the inadvertent self-parody is as extreme as potential deliberate parody.

Savage has a certain amount of vaudeville showman about him, as do most blatant political demagogues. Like Coulter, his act has zero subtlety. He never breaks character, so to speak, because that would let the rubes who take him seriously in on the joke; in point of fact, he and those like him (O'Reilly) react viciously whenever their utter sincerity is questioned.

I don't doubt that Savage and those of his ilk actually believe a certain percentage what they spew out, but a degree of exaggeration is necessary when chasing higher ratings and competing against the 3,471 other conservative-talk-radio pundits for market share.

Dude, seriously:

Gay marriage will destroy the country! John Kerry is a member of al Qaeda! Liberalism is the mental disease of junkies and communists! Whee!

Hehehehehehe, that almost made me lose my coffee.
