Jesse Jackson just 'got' Lou Dobbs.
Jesse Jackson is on the Lou Dobbs show and was making the point that the Imus show isn't a traditional 'shock jock' show, that a lot of serious people go on that show...including Lou Dobbs. Dobbs responded, "You and I have both been on that show." Jesse shot back, "I haven't ever been on that show." Dobbs sat there with his mouth hanging open and said, "uhhh...sorry."

5. Jesse should know whether he's been on IMUS or not. Why would he lie about something like that?
sheesh.

9. I Googled it and can't find any Jesse Jackson appearance on IMUS.
I would say Jesse is telling the truth. Google it andsee what you find.

11. I'm sure there is more than me checking right now

13. You may be recalling
a recording of Jackson speaking elsewhere and being replayed on Imus.I really can't see him lying about something that would be so easy to disprove.

4. Now how do we get Dobbs for his de-legitimatizing the immigration debate....
with his subtle racists commentaries.

6. So Much For "Full Disclosure"
This is how Anus gets a pass. His buddies like Lou Doobies and Tweety and Russert all say he's "just kidding" and "he does this to everyone"...and then Lou pretends this is the first time Anus has had this type of crap flow from his studio. Jesse has been the brunt of some wicked shots by Anus, McGuirk and others.

The problem is Anus is part of the beltway buddy association...as we've seen they cover their own and use their media eyes and voices to try to downplay the whole thing. I've heard Anus get away with many attacks that were "laughed off"...it's good to see people holding him accountable to his words...that's also a part of freedom of speech. If you're going to exercize it, then be willing to accept what that brings...especially in a public arena.

12. Dobbs talking out of his ass and got called on it.
Was hoping Jesse would just say yes? Just guessing Lou? Taking a stab at it. Lou has some good points, to bad he can't move to that next level of thinking.

14. Doesn't Imus have a guy that impersonates the voices
of celebs.

I had Imus on the tv one morning as I was getting ready for work and Imus was interviewing New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin.

It wasn't until I actually looked at the tv that I was listening to an impersonator.
