The levels of bitter resentment and anger that consumes conservatives is beyond me. I just found this quote on a conservative Christian website

"Anger can become sinful when it is motivated by pride (James 1:20), when it is unproductive and thus distorts God’s purposes (1 Corinthians 10:31), or when anger is allowed to linger (Ephesians 4:26-27). One obvious sign that anger has turned to sin is when, instead of attacking the problem at hand, we attack the wrongdoer. Ephesians 4:15-19 says we are to speak the truth in love and use our words to build others up, not allow rotten or destructive words to pour from our lips. Unfortunately, this poisonous speech is a common characteristic of fallen man (Romans 3:13-14).

The conservative Christian is supposed to be free of anger and is supposed to love. Yet, all that I see in Savage is bitter and angry resentment because he feels that white people are losing control of the nation and that the country no longer will have an ethnic pure Caucasian majority.

Mr. Savage and his ilk need to learn the concept of letting go and accepting the new normal. Unfortunately, his ilk will continue to spew anger, rage, and bitterness on the airwaves until they go to the grave.
