This guy has zero pride. I hope Clinton ignores him.

After years of berating Hillary Clinton, Savage asks her for help lifting his UK ban.


Earlier this month, the British government announced a list of people barred from entering the country because of their history of fostering extremism or hatred. Included on the list was American hate radio host Michael Savage, who has since expressed his outrage at the decision. “It is demented,” Savage said. “I want my name off of that list and I want a letter of apology from this {British Home Secretary} Jacqui Smith.” Now it appears that Savage is seeking help from an old nemesis: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The San Fransisco Chronicle’s Rich Lieberman reports that “lawyers for Savage are formally asking that she call on the British Government to withdraw its ban.” It’s interesting that Savage is now turning to Clinton for help, considering what he has had to say about her in the past. Some examples:

– “Hillary Clinton, the most Godless woman in the Senate.”

– Regarding one of Clinton’s speeches: “That’s rubbish. That’s Hitler dialogue. Goebbels would be proud of you, Hillary Clinton. I know Mao Zedong would have been proud of you.”

– “{Clinton has} destroyed the war effort against terror. And if, God forbid, a suitcase bomb goes off you’ll know who to blame.”

– On Clinton’s run for the presidency: “{She would} stir up a race war, a civil war in the country to get that hag, that harridan elected.”


Savage also once suggested that Clinton had something to do with the death of John F. Kennedy Jr. so she could run for U.S. Senate in New York.

6. I hope she stalls him for a long time and then gives him a
bureaucratic "I'm sorry, but this is not a government matter, so you're on your own." I would really love to see that reported in the news. :P

If she helps him it will be the last time I ever even mention her name. I hope she has the gumption to publicly laugh in his face.


Oh and if this clown demanding an apology isn't the most ironic thing I have ever heard...
