Michael Savage: "He's a buffoon"

FP Passport blogger Blake Hounshell hits a home run with this point.

Referring to a recent Savage quote that compared Muslim women wearing a burqa (or niqab) to a Nazi, Hounshell concludes:
Readers of Passport will be able to place Savage in his proper context. He's a buffoon, a performance artist who says shocking things to get attention. But read about him for the first time in al-Masry al-Youm [link], and you might think he is a mainstream, influential figure. And that is a very dangerous impression for the United States to be sending.

Couldn't agree more. I wonder how many on the edge of militarization will crossover and try to kill Westerners after reading this piece? Thanks Mr. Savage.
