POST #1 ABOUT THE AUTHOR "The Enemy Within:Saving America from the Liberal Assault on Our Schools, Faith and Military" by Michael Savage-

This summer, for my AP US Government class, I was asked to select a book that would challenge my thinking. The book I selected is by Michael Savage called "The Enemy Within:Saving America from  the Liberal Assault on Our Schools, Faith,and Military" (2005). I chose this book because I listen to Michael Savage on the radio and I thought that I would like to learn a little more about his thought process.  I enjoy listening to Michael Savage because he seems to challenge people based on their beliefs and doesn't really care rather they are Republicans or Democrats.  He also has low tolerance for uninformed people and isn't always very nice to ignorant people on the radio.  Even though I disagree with this method of debate, his dialogue make me laugh.

Michael Savage was born in New York and was the son of immigrants. He attended Queen College where he got his bachelor degree in biology in 1963. Savage then earned a Master of Science degree in botany from the University of Hawaii Manoa in 1970 and a Master of Arts from the same instituiion in 1972 ib anthropology. He also obtained a Ph.D. in nutritional ethonomedicine in 1978 from the University of California.   As you can see, Dr. Savage has a broad education which allows him to discuss a variety of topics from nutrition, to politics to the environment.  Even though Michael Savage is a conservative, he has written many books about how liberal thought and policies have hurt America and warns us of the future.  In this book,  I think I will learn about why Michael Savage believes that liberal thinking is taking over schools, faith and our military.  Since Michael Savage uses his radio talk show to express his thoughts about topics that come up, I expect this book to be slanted because it negatively address how liberals are destroying our society in the title.
