Is it just me, or is Lou Dobbs a real asshole?
He was just now on CNN saying that he thinks that John McCain having almost missed the debate was being overblown. What a tool. Does he not know his history?

4. He can't help it he's voting for McPalin, plus he and Obama had a falling out early in the primaries
Lou can't stand the fact that Obama called him out and...get this...WOULDN'T APOLOGIZE afterward. :rofl:

17. He said something about hate crimes and Lou Dobbs in the same sentence
Dobbs is still waiting for an apology for that and for the 'bitter' remark.

Here's a link to the hate crime statement:

5. Are you implying that you're a real asshole too?
by the way, there is no history here. Since these debates started in 1976, not a single candidate has ever been such a dumbfuck as to try and back out of scheduled debate after they've already agreed to show up.

7. The man makes Pat Buchanan look like a civil rights leader. Can you say racist?
I truly think he hates the fact that a "minority" might actually win the election.

12. Dobbs is a racist
Look, he doesn't get all that fired up over the immigration issue just because he thinks it's a big deal. It's only a big deal to him because their is an ethnic goup involved. If it were french candadians coming across the border in droves, he wouldn't have an issue with it.

His apparent love for the vile Obama Waffles last week also tips his hand. He is a despicable human being by every measure.

He also hates Obama because Obama called him out by name during the primaries.

14. He's swung back to full Republican mode
He's always admitted he was a Republican, so I don't know why people are surprised to see him "back to his old tricks"
