Poll question: Why didn't Lou Dobbs cover the Cindy Sheehan story tonight?
The Cindy Sheehan is not newsworthy

Because Lou Dobbs is pure scum and he proved it tonight

Something else

11. I believe this may be what is happening. The story needs to go away

fast. It started gaining momentum with the Vets for Peace Conference where Cindy was in attendance and the idea caught like a brushfire. (The decision to make the trip even caused some trouble between members of VFP for a short period of time).

I believe once and for all, Bush Inc., courtesy of Rove and Associates, may have been caught off-guard and both sides are scrambling as fast as we can.

I have to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone here for helping in this effort in any way that you can.

Peace

5. Cause Cindy is not an illegal alien
that's Lou's kick this year - last year it was outsourcing (i.e. hawking his book on the subject every night)

8. Its A Daily Economic and Business Show
There isn't a reason on this earth why he should be coverning events in Crawford. Instead (I don't watch him most nights) he should have been concentrating on the increase in the Discount rate that is comming on Thursday and maybe a little bit on what doubling the monthly payments on credit cards, and the attendent payment failures that are soon to come, is going to do the debt structure of the big banks.

Funny subject for a Daily Economic and Business Show. Wouldn't you say?
