What the hell is up with Lou Dobbs?

[ThumperDumper]

Yesterday I heard him spouting partisan talking points/BS about illegal immigration. Now this.

My first eye-opener about him was when he "reported" on Target not letting the Salvation Army kettles outside Target stores around Xmas. THAT story didn't even have anything REMOTELY resembling objectivity.

You know, MSNBS calls Scarborough "Commentary from a Conservative Viewpoint" or something like that.

I was pissed they didn't do that with NANCY GRACE, but THIS is TWISTED!
I took CNN off my bookmark toolbar so I'm not tempted anymore.
Too many better options on the internet. Too bad there aren't more on TV.


-----------------------------------------
During a debate on "the origin of life," CNN host Lou Dobbs stated on his own authority: "The fact is that evolution, Darwinism, is not a fully explained or completely rigorous and defined science that has testable results within it." The National Academy of Sciences (NAS), which advises the federal government on "scientific and technical matters," disagrees with Dobbs' "facts" about evolution.

1. lou dobbs is no friend...

of the typical DUer. He may say some things that we like every now and again, but he is a tinkle-on economics guy at heart.

2. He's got a one track mind. He has had essentially the same

subject, the illegal immigration, as his topic for months.

3. I would guess that he was told to drink the 'kool-aid'

or else his job would be outsourced.

4. Nah...

He looks dumb and I think he believes his blather.

5. You think he looks dumb? In what way?

He looks like a nice average person to me unlike some of the "pretty boy" anchors and hosts that are out there now.

6. Maybe I should...

rephrase that. It looks like he's always shooting from the hip and never thinks about what he's saying - the "interview on the street" phenomina where people just say the first kneejerk thing that pops into their head. He looks like he's running on autopilot.

7. This evolution bullshit totally changed my opinion on Lou Dobbs.

He's now, in my mind, nothing more than another know-it-all blowhard. He's really not that much different than Bill O'Reilly.
