The Washington Post reports that B-list  talker Michael Savage, last week, compared one Senator&#8217;s critique of the  radio talkers to &#8220;dispatching Nazi storm troopers&#8221; against them. In the  professional ranters&#8217; version of America, only they are allowed to criticize  or insult. But when the fire is returned, they bawl like babies,  pronouncing themselves victims: of words. Keep crying, kids. Here come  some more&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Giordano digs deeper into the wound and finds out  interesting facts about the anti-immigrant movement, its bloggers and  talkers, and shows us revealing video of their rank-and-file supporters. And  he dissects the amendments under consideration in the Senate to the  Immigration Bill, dividing them up between &#8220;the good, the stupid, and  the ugly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With links galore and taking no prisoners, Giordano  continues filling the vacuum left by the silence of &#8220;alternative&#8221; media,  liberal bloggers and on the left side of the radio dial.
