Back on October 16 I did a feature on RopeofSilicon called "Casting the 2008 Presidential Election" and in it I cast the above bulldog for Lou Dobbs. I did this because the man is a raging loon and how no one has called him out for being one is baffling to me.
Does anyone watch his show? Only idiots and amazingly rich people can agree with him right? Because idiots are dumb and rich people have time to complain about everything, which is Dobbs' M.O.
He claims to be an Independent and based on his CNN program I can only assume that means hating everyone all the time. I have never seen an individual so disgruntled. However, there is always a great moment of comedy and that is when he unveils his latest poll. They are so wildly geared toward making people answer the way he wants them to it is phenomenal. It's like asking a.) Are you for killing puppies and pray to spend eternity in Hell? or b.) Are you normal?
His latest poll was the greatest when it asked "Would you prefer higher taxes or government cutbacks?" Prefer? What would I prefer? Where is choice "C" offering me a Ferrari and Megan Fox on the weekends?
Surprisingly enough 17% actually voted for "Higher Taxes" which tells me 17% are in on the joke that is Lou Dobbs.
"I think we can end the divisions within the United States. What I think is quite clear is that we can work together in the last analysis. And that what has been going on with the United States over the period of the last three years, the divisions, the violence, the disenchantment with our society, the divisions - whether it's between blacks and whites, between the poor and the more affluent, or between age groups, or in the war in Vietnam - that we can work together. We are a great country, an unselfish country and a compassionate country. And I intend to make that my basis for running."

Outside Barack Obama's celebrity filled fundraiser at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, CA. Names such as Will Ferrell, Jodie Foster, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Lee Curtis and DreamWorks founders Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg are entering the party when Sarah Palin shows up.
BOUNCER:
Name?
SARAH PALIN:
Sarah Palin.
BOUNCER:
Sorry hon, you aren't on the list.
SARAH PALIN:
But I am the most popular Governor in the United States.
BOUNCER:
I don't know anything about that, but you aren't getting into Barack's Hollywood Bash.
SARAH PALIN:
I guess we will just have to take out a few ads that call him elitist then.
BOUNCER:
Is that a threat?
SARAH PALIN:
Would you rather I pull out my Savage Model 110 and shoot you in the face?
It seems generally the Republican commenters I have seen on television, be it campaign supporters or spokespeople, and in this case a journalist, take the tact of I can argue louder than you therefore I am right. MSNBC's Joe Scarborough won't allow a word in... does that mean he knows he is wrong? Does it mean he is insecure? Does it mean he is 12-years-old? I say yes to the first two, he looks a little old for 12, but he certainly acts it...
Higher Taxes or Government Cutbacks… Which One You Want?
