In reply to the discussion: Are conservatives nuts? [View all]ProSense

"A couple of quotes out of the blogosphere"?
On his radio show yesterday, right-wing host Michael Savage who has previously called autism a phony disease claimed that Roberts epilepsy is the root cause of his cognitive dissociation in the Obamacare ruling:
The criticism caught on in some circles. Wayne Laugesen, the conservative editorial page editor for the Colorado Springs Gazette, linked to Malkins post this week in his own piece titled Obama shrunk aerial firefighting fleet. A writer with PJ Media mentioned the Gazette opinion in a blog post under the headline Colorado Burns. Are Obamas Environmental and Defense Policies to Blame?

Hey, you don't have to agree, but I think they're nuts!
