Michael Savage Blasts ‘Leprechaun’ Bill O’Reilly Over Immigration: He’s In The ‘No Spine Zone’

Right wing radio host Michael Savage mocked Bill O’Reilly’s sudden support of the gang of eight’s immigration reform bill, which O’Reilly somewhat reluctantly endorsed this week to the consternation of far-right conservatives.

“One of the stories I found last night that got me upset,” Savage said, “I hope it’s still here, where’s the one on O’Reilly, the little leprechaun? Here: ‘No Spine Zone: O’Reilly Supports Amnesty Bill.'”

The immigration reform package is staunchly opposed by figures on the right like Savage and Ann Coulter, who view it as amnesty in disguise. O’Reilly, whose fortunes are tied more closely to the national vicissitudes of the mainstream GOP, sees immigration reform as necessary to the demographic-based survival of the Republican Party.

“I named it the ‘No Spine Zone’ a long time ago,” Savage said. “That’s why the big guy doesn’t ever want me on Fox. He banned me from Fox. He got mad that I called him a leprechaun. Can you blame him? Then he got mad that I called it the No Spine Zone. Can you blame him? Can you blame me?”

“I don’t mind that he has to make a buck,” Savage continued. “But why does he have to disguise himself for what he isn’t?”
