Business&Media Institute: Lou Dobbs: Bush Should Be Impeached for Salmonella Outbreak
CNN host says leadership in 'sorry condition' and inability to 'protect the American consumer' is 'sufficient reason to impeach a president.'

CNN’s Lou Dobbs has been on a tear about the recent tainted-tomato salmonella outbreak, but this time he’s taken it a step further and is calling for the ultimate political punishment.

The “Lou Dobbs Tonight” host placed the blame for the recent salmonella outbreak squarely on President George W. Bush, calling for his impeachment on the June 19 broadcast. Contaminated tomatoes from an unknown source or sources have sickened 383 people since April, according to the Associated Press.

“You know, I have heard a lot of reasons over the years as to why George W. Bush should be impeached,” Dobbs said. “For them to leave the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in this state, its leadership in this sorry condition and to have no capacity apparently or will to protect the American consumer – that is alone to me sufficient reason to impeach a president who has made this agency possible and has ripped its guts out in its ability to protect the American consumer.”...

On June 18, Dobbs called the FDA “excessively intellectually challenged.” The night before he called the FDA “moronic.”...He also implicated Bush in that tirade: “As for this administration, were a responsible president at the helm of this country, I would wonder why he is not taking action, but then again, this is of course his FDA and his legacy.”

How dare he make a big deal out of a few hundred American lives lost to neglect and cite that as a reason for impeachment when Bush has done so much worse, and done it intentionally? Like for example 1 million Iraqi lives lost in a criminal war.

And isn't there some other more important things we should be impeaching over?

Dobbs is a powerful media propaganda figure. There is little he does without purpose, but be assured, he spends most of his time carrying McCain's water since Obama wrapped this thing up.

But we can trust him...he doesn't like Bush! Or Mexicans for that matter.
