Savage: Liberal diets affect brain function

Savage predicts that the Clinton server scandal will actually help the Democratic candidate in the long run: “The FBI will come out and with huge fanfare tell us that not only was there no top secret information, but they found information that was helpful in terms of national security. They’ll just make something up. Do you really think Obama is so anti-Hillary that he would damage his own party? We’re living in a banana republic (Free audio).”

Savage has been saying for years that “liberalism is a mental disorder,” but his expertise in nutrition has helped him theorize the cause.

“It’s caused by the diets liberals put themselves on,” Savage speculated. “These vegan and gluten-free diets are deficient in many of the nutrients that are required for proper brain function. … If you were to look at the diets of most of the white protesters in Ferguson who were bused in over state lines, you would understand why they think and act the way they do (Free audio).”

Rush Limbaugh

“You take a look now at the Democrat presidential primary and who are the two front-runners here?” Rush Limbaugh asked his audience this week.

“An aging, frumpy, Nurse Ratched kind of non-charismatic, stern-looking woman,” he said. “And over here a guy that looks like he’s 85 years old bounding about, being thrown off the stage by #BlackLivesMatter protesters. We’re told the Democratic Party’s the party of youth and hip and cool and all of this, and yet the best thing they can come up with is a couple of dinosaurs, who both happen to be white. Who both happen to be Marxists to one degree or another. Where is the youth? Where is the hip? Where is the cool? (Free audio)”

“This is what has been described as ‘the tinfoil hat theory,'” Limbaugh said about the mystery surrounding Hillary Clinton’s email server. He told his listeners that some people are speculating that it contains unflattering or incriminating information about the president himself.

“Yes, there are Top Secret documents on the server of Hillary Clinton among her e-mails,” he said. “What if there is also something about Obama on this server in an e-mail or something that he doesn’t want anybody to know. So you go get the server, you get it in your possession, and then nobody hears anything about it for quite a while (Free audio).”

Aaron Klein

While Donald Trump has yet to unveil his official plans, what’s largely ignored by media is that in his 2011 book, “Time to Get Tough: Making America #1 Again,” he laid out specific prescriptions for tax reform, immigration policy, healthcare and more. Klein used the book to speculate on Trump’s possible election platform.

Klein also went through Obama’s Iran speech point-by-point and proved the president wrong on virtually every major pronouncement, including numerous misleading claims.

Listener favorite and comedy legend Jackie Mason sounded off on Trump, Huckabee, Rubio and more. Mason satirized the tendency of the news media, opinion makers and the general public to focus more on the delivery and presentation of remarks than on the actual policies presented at presidential debates. “If these debates were held fifty years ago, Groucho Marx would have been the president,” Mason quipped.

Mark Levin

Levin’s new book “Plunder and Deceit” debuted at #1 on the New York Times bestseller list across all non-fiction categories.

Breitbart reports: “Levin’s widely anticipated book has been greeted with overflow crowds at book signings. The book, which covers everything from radical environmentalism to illegal immigration to national security, arrives as conservatism stands at a crossroads and seeks to inform and inspire America’s emerging generation of constitutional conservatives.”

On the air, Levin went after FOX News’s Megyn Kelly for digging up an old reference from Donald Trump’s reality TV show in 2007 to accuse him of sexism.

Levin remarked: “You want to know the facts about that? … They found the words. They were perfectly innocent. Donald Trump on Season 6 of ‘The Apprentice’ – and by the way, that means that our good friends at Fox went through ‘The Apprentice,’ the various shows of ‘The Apprentice’ – went back and looked at his Twitter and his Facebook … trying to dig stuff up … this is what they did. They turned it into the National Enquirer. … This is question No. 2 in a presidential debate? (Free audio)”

Laura Ingraham

Rand Paul joined Ingraham to talk about his opponents for the Republican nomination.

After calling Donald Trump a “fake conservative,” Ingraham asked Paul for his opinion on Jeb Bush.

“I just think he’s not a conservative,” Paul replied. “But I don’t think he’s trying to present himself as one. I think he is sincerely part of the establishment, he is sincerely a moderate, and we’ll see how that goes.”

He added that he didn’t view Bush as a threat because he’s “a moderate” and “people know it (Free audio).”

Ingraham’s other guests this week included Gov. Chris Christie (“If Jeb’s tax record stands on his own then he should sign the tax pledge”); journalist Mark Halperin (“My gut says Jeb will be the GOP nominee but it is hard to find voters excited over Jeb Bush who are not on his pay roll”); and Ann Coulter, who said of Trump, “We finally have a Republican that’s not linked to donors and addresses the real issue of illegal aliens (Free audio).”

Glenn Beck

Beck polled his audience about the Republican line-up and said he was “shocked” by some of the results.

In particular, he was surprised to note that Rand Paul had fallen out of favor while Chris Christie’s popularity had actually increased. Beck’s co-host Stu Burguiere speculated that the result was a reaction to the two men’s argument during the FOX News debate on the topic of domestic surveillance.

“Maybe the biggest thing in the debate was the real fireworks between Chris Christie and Rand Paul,” Burguiere said. “The audience ruled on who won that debate. It was Chris Christie (Free audio).”

Beck Glenn Beck was shocked when he read fellow talk radio host Mark Levin’s new book “Plunder and Deceit” over the weekend, saying they both seem to be advocating the same solution to many of the country’s problems without even realizing it.

“I don’t listen to Mark [Levin] and Rush [Limbaugh],” Beck told his listeners. “All of us, we’re so busy, we don’t listen to each other.” However, he’d taken the time to read Levin’s new book “Plunder and Deceit,” then asked his fellow radio host to come on as a guest to discuss it.

They both agree that America needs “a new Civil Rights Movement.” The problem is: Who would lead it?

“All through your book, you are making a great case for, as you say, the rising generation and the ruling generation,” Beck said. “But the problem is, as you point out in your book, the vast majority of both of those are so apathetic and undereducated and uninvolved and willing to just go along. How does this change? (Free audio)”
