19. Note to DUers: LOU DOBBS IS A REPUBLICAN !
Edited on Fri Jun-09-06 09:07 AM by Julius Civitatus
For those DUers that somehow hoped to expect better from Lou Dobbs, please read:

1- Lou Dobbs is a Republican, has always been, and for years has passionately argued in favor of any Republican measure ever passed. He was the Rush Limbaugh of economic news on CNN, and has been an ardent support of Bush until recently.

2- Lou Dobbs only recently started to give lip service about unions and the American worker. Don't be fooled: he is only doing it to morally justify his racist and xenophobic crusade against immigrants. About a year and a half ago Lou went off the deep end, and his show became a one-issue daily rant against immigration. He's running out of reasons to justify his racist xenophobia. But recently, Lou seems to have found a moral boon on the "interests of the American worker," and is using and abusing this issue like mad. Don't be fooled: Lou Dobbs is the type of guy that would advocate the imprisonment of unionists if it affected his bottom line.

3- Every now and then Lou Dobbs reverts to his bad old self, and reveals his true nature. This interview with Ann Coulter should serve as an eye opener to all those liberals who have fallen for Lou Dobbs new populist facade.

Don't be fooled: Lou Dobbs has always been a right-wing Republican, and he is today. Only recently he started bashing Bush and claiming to support workers' rights because it works for his anti-Mexican crusade. His criticism comes from the right, not from the left.

Beware.
