Lou Dobbs used to be posted here on DU a lot... Has his star faded...do you still watch?
What's he up to these days.

He doesn't seem to be a "player" in the last few months. Why is CNN keeping him on if there's no BUZZ out there on the Internet about him. :shrug:

2. He hated HATED Bush
So when he railed against Bush, his stuff got posted

For some reason, he doesn't hate Obama

He dislikes him, but does not hate him

Dude's just angry :shrug:

6. No he is the last remnant of the Perotistas
They die with him...

That is a generation that was promised the world if they played ball. So they played ball, and guess what? The folks who promised them that are dead and no one is honoring their commitments.

So they're pissed - and without a clear enemy, they go after the Mexicans, the Chinese - you name it.

12. I used to watch Lou Dobbs for his anti-Bush rants but when he went racist
With his anti-immigration rants, I quit watching him.

While it lasted, though it was great watching a real fiscal conservative rip into Bush.

3. Seen his ratings lately? He;s irrelevant. I don't need to hear how Hispanics
are the reason for all the problems in the world.

7. Flipping Channels I saw he's still out there on CNN...If his ratings are bad, why is he there?
:shrug: I actually had forgotten about him...and only turned on CNN because I was bored, tonight. I was shocked to see his face...but then I was shocked that Blitzer aired the CIA Fuck Up Lates Osama bin Laden tape to SCARE US ALL.

I should have kept CNN turned off... My mistake.

14. Yup
Watching The Dog Whisperer now, then at 5 Keith and then Rachel. I'm so glad I don't have to watch Mathews for another hour. I never put CNN on.

16. I liked him
Edited on Wed Jun-03-09 06:52 PM by LatteLibertine
for bashing the bail out and calling out wall street and greedy corrupt corporations.

His rhetoric on immigration is way too strong and as others have said, often hateful.
