A Good Old Quote From Michael Savage

Now you want me to tell you my opinion on autism, since I'm not talking about autism? A fraud; a racket. For a long while, we were hearing that every minority child had asthma. Why did they sudden... Why was there an asthma epidemic amongst minority children. Because, I'll tell you why: the children got extra welfare if they were disabled, and they got extra help in school; it was a money racket. Everyone went in and was told (fake cough), "If the nurse looks at you you go (fake cough), "I don't know, the dust got me."" See, everyone had asthma from the minority community. That was number one. Now the illness du jour is autism. You know what autism is? I'll tell you what autism is in 99% of the cases: it's a brat who hasn't been told to cut the act out. What do you mean they scream and they're silent? They don't have a father around to tell them, "Don't act like a moron. You'll get nowhere in life. Stop acting like a putz. Straighten up. Act like a man. Don't sit there crying and screaming, idiot." Autism: everybody has an illness. When I behaved like a fool my father called me a fool. And he said, "Don't behave like a fool." The worst thing he said: "Don't behave like a fool. Don't be anybody's dummy. Don't sound like an idiot. Don't act like a girl. Don't cry." That's what I was raised with; that's what you should raise your children with. Stop with the sensitivity training. You're turning your son into a girl, and you're turning our nation into a nation of losers and beaten men. That's why we have the politicians we have.
