David Schrag examines his navel and the world around it
I’ve started posting all my Jay Severin comments at my dedicated blog, Severin Watch. But I’m making an exception today because I actually got on the air and recorded it. Having Jay Severin call me an a-hole is like having Lady Gaga call me a hermaphrodite. (I know Lady Gaga is not a hermaphrodite, [...]
I’ve decided that Jay Severin no longer merits mention in The Schrug. Instead, I’ve created a new blog: Severin Watch. It’s all Jay, all the time. Why? Good question … All posts from the Jay Severin category from this blog have been ported over there, but it’s too much trouble to port the comments, so [...]
A lot of people have been commenting recently on my 8-month-old blog post, What Jay Severin thinks about the poor. I was wondering what accounted for the interest in that old article, so on a hunch I Googled “Jay Severin.” As of today (Wednesday, November 5, 2008), my blog post is showing up on the [...]

Jay Severin thought it would be fun to invite Marisa Tomei, Tatyana Ali, and Frances McDormand — all of them “Hollywood hags,” in his opinion — onto his show and ambush them with hostile questions about Barack Obama. Tomei and Ali were no-shows, but McDormand called in as scheduled and beat the crap out of [...]
Well, he didn’t say that exactly. What he said is that early voting is “anti-Constitutional.” He said that having to vote in a specific place on a specific day is a good way of making sure that only committed voters vote. It’s a way of keeping out the “riff-raff.” You know, riff-raff like military personnel [...]
Note: please post any new comments to the new SeverinWatch blog: http://severinwatch.com/2008/10/16/more-lies-from-lying-jay-severin-the-liar/ Didn’t have the recorder set up for this one so I can’t provide the full transcript, but on Wednesday, October 15, between 3:30 and 4:30 pm, Jay Severin made a couple statements that are – to use one of his favorite terms – [...]
Note: please post any new comments to the new SeverinWatch blog: http://severinwatch.com/2008/03/03/ignorant-cowardly-liar-jay-severin-vs-a-hole-david/ I think I’ve discovered a new mental illness. It’s called Severinitis. Persons suffering from this disease are under the delusion that they can somehow get Jay Severin to soften his position or rhetoric on anything by presenting a rational and factual argument. They [...]
Why am I spending any of my time on this guy? I have no idea. But I can’t help it. Here’s his latest offense. Jay, along with at least one other radio talk show host, likes to refer to the junior senator from Illinois as “Barack Hussein Obama.” Why does he do this? Because, he [...]
