Did Lou Dobbs have a nervous breakdown?
Just before he left a few weeks ago, he was screaming at some guest (a liberal one-can't think who). He was so out of control, we were pissing our pants laughing.

Suddenly, he is out for tonsillectomy surgery. Between the new hair color job and the screaming, I think he went over the edge. He's been gone for quite awhile.

1. He caught leprosy from an immigrant.
It's got to be an immigrant's fault somehow or other.

3. Sorry but I don't see it that way at all... I think Lou Dobbs, like Keith Olberman...
is one person in this country that is associated with MSM that has the balls to stand up and say what he thinks in the name of middle class Americans... You can dis him for whatever reason you want, but in my mind he is a man with conviction and balls.... Unlike many others in the US today...

5. Agreed
I don't always agree with Lou Dobbs, but he does his homework. He will allow people to make their point without talking over them like Tweety, Bill O and others. I really think he is on the little guys side for the most part.

7. Yeah, he's got the balls to stand up to huddled masses.
Lou Dobbs' balz are yearning to breath free.

9. Is that an oblique reference to an inscription on the Statue of Illegal Immigration?

8. His seemingly endless rant about immigration irritates me, but other than that
I think he is a class act. He put electronic voting fraud front and center in the MSM and for that I will always be grateful.

13. I agree with you, MPR.
I really appreciate most of what Dobbs does.

But I believe our immigration "problem" is too far gone to fix.

And I have grown weary of Dobbs' incessant drum pounding.

12. Tonsillectomy surgery
for an adult requires a much longer recovery and is more difficult than for a child, it really knocks the crap out of a person.

14. What am I ever going to do with GD?
Humor just goes right over your heads, doesn't it? I shall slither back to the Lounge where I should stay.

15. I like Lou Dobbs
But ranting about negative stuff all the time, it doesn't surprise me he eventually blew a fuse. To put that amount of vitriol into your news program day in and day out, eventually your body is going to get tired of it.

Unfortunately, this is precisely the sort of thing that made Rush Limbaugh so popular, and probably what alot of Democrats need a little more of. Rage, vitriol, and bile. You know, guts.

They are holding him hostage in a tunnel under the border.
