Lou Dobbs seems to be realizing that Bushco is a bunch of liars.
Is it just me? He's talking about them using 'inventive language to obscure and obfiscate' re: economy.

20. Oh really....
"He looked like an alternatively commander in chief, rock star, movie star, and one of the guys."
(CNN's Lou Dobbs, on Bush's 'Mission Accomplished' speech, 5/1/03)

"Some journalists, in my judgment, just can't stand success, especially a few liberal columnists and newspapers and a few Arab reporters."
(CNN's Lou Dobbs, 4/14/03)

Yeah Dobbs is my hero :eyes:

8. He did say that he had done that since he took office.
Before you're too critical of Lou Dobbs, please watch him a few times to understand where he comes from.

10. I tried. I quit. I hate being bullshitted. The only credibility he's got
with me is over the ports thing. He whored for this bunch of criminals for far too long.

17. We CAN NEVER WIN IF WE CAN'T ACCEPT CHANGED MINDS
Sure Lou Dobbs was a corporate shill for too many years.

But he has done a 180 degree turn in his thinking the last couple of years.

Isn't that the point? To see people chnge their minds and stop supporting the Bullshit?

5. Lou Dobbs has always been against this administration.
I watch his show every night that he is on. He received quite a compliment from Mike Wallace last night who was on Larry King's show. He said that Lou tells it like it is and was the best when asked by Larry who he liked in the news media.

22. So did Wilson but that doesn't make him a Bush lover
His actions speak louder than his donation... He's been on everynight pounding the Bush administration... I've watched him and he's the only reporter who daily pounded the corruption of this administration!!!

9. Is that why Lou returned to CNN?
He is on a mission, and he can reach a wider audience than some perceived as less conservative or honest.

11. The Dems could kick ass by adopting a Dobbs-friendly fiscal strategy,
and a liberal pro-worker strategy.

18. oh I PREFER the Dems, but I honestly can't say that I LIKE the
actions in either party very much. Im getting closer to the "there's not enough difference between them" crowd.

I don't like ANYTHING that the Pubs are doing, thus the preference, but the Dems sure don't have any shining stars.

19. Lou Dobbs for President!
He is the only person concerned with American workers, outsourcing jobs, bringing in foreign workers, etc.

He's also been the truth teller about Bush & Co, long before other reporters had the guts. There's tremendous pressure to fire him, yet he has the courage to keep it up.
