A man of many moods?

Media Matters has been tracking and transcribing radio hate talker Michael Savage, who tells his syndicators that "Those who listen to me say they hear a bit of Plato, Henry Miller, Jack Kerouac, Moses, Jesus, and Frankenstein.

So, would this be the Plato part?

"I believe that a thousand of them should be killed tomorrow. I think a thousand of them held in the Iraqi prison should be given 24 hour -- a trial and executed."

Or maybe this subtle erotica is Henry Miller...

"Instead of putting joysticks, I would have liked to have seen dynamite put in their orifices and they should be dropped from airplanes."

This doesn't sound like Kerouac to me...

"Use little women in particular. Little, ugly women. And let 'em take big strapping Iraqis and put 'em on leashes naked."

But I've heard Moses was kind of into the vengeance trip...

"These people don't fear death, they fear humiliation. The only way to humiliate them is take their deepest fear, the pig, the dog, the woman with the leash, and use it on them to break them!"

And then there's Jesus...

"I would like to give a medal to everybody at Grab-an-Arab [sic] prison for showing constraint. Every one of these American soldiers should be given an award for having restrained themselves, for what you see today is a direct result of the political correctness that is defeating this nation."


Nope. It's all Frankenstein.

Digby has more on Savage and his minions for the stout hearted...
