Lou Dobbs to Media Matters rep: “You are an ideologue and a left-wing hack”
Hot Air ^ | 5/27/08 | Allahpundit

Posted on 05/27/2008 1:29:39 PM PDT by Dawnsblood

How’d these two end up on opposite sides of the desk, you ask? Behold, the cover predictably adorned with the image of my own beloved boss for having the wingnutty gall to object to illegal aliens convicted of crimes in the U.S. being released after serving their time instead of deported and then proceeding to commit new and ever more exciting crimes. A sample quote from the report’s “Fear, Anger, and Hate” section. Have you ever?

The never-ending criminal alien revolving door — that’s the subject of this evening’s ‘Talking Points Memo.’ Here we go again — another heinous crime, another illegal alien suspect with a mile-long rap sheet, another bloody tragedy wrought by open borders.” — The O’Reilly Factor, August 10, 2007

I’m not totally unsympathetic to Waldman, actually; Dobbs dips his toe into the pool of immigration conspiracy theories too often for my liking. But the left is so pitiful and disingenuous on the subject of criminal illegal aliens — as you’ll see in clip two, where Waldman has the unholy nerve to scold him for calling so much attention to otherwise preventable crimes — that I can’t help but exult in the berating. Thirteen minutes. Enjoy.

"Dobbs dips his toe into the pool of immigration conspiracy theories too often for my liking..."

If you notice...Dobbs only attributes his theories in this endeavorer to the right and the Bush admin. Like the global viewing world workers party doesn't exist and it's just a tiny group with no massive organization or world plans....all of them are poor, well intentioned saints./s

Dobbs is a commie like everyone else at CNN...make no mistake. Clock right once and all but he just uses immigration to get your attention.

I watched it, and was rather disappointed in Dobbs. Name calling and evading the question, and asking the man a question he could hardly have answered (about how much research he’d done) in the heat of the exchange.
But especially saying to someone “you’re a left-wing hack” is just not conducive to winning minds in rational debate. Dobbs could have won it cold, if he’d only kept a cool head.

“Dobbs dips his toe into the pool of immigration conspiracy theories....”.

I wonder about people who are fearful of the truth. They draw an ‘acceptable’ line in the sand and anything beyond their comfort level is labeled and dismissed.

I don't have a problem with the truth, the problem with Dobbs' truth is that there is a hole the size of China left out of it. He conveniently lets the left off of any of the "world planning" discussions. Same with Ron Paul...all right wing conspiracy and don't even mention what the left has planned for the US. This is not denial...this is thought shaping of the sheeples.

I don’t see it as conveniently leaving or letting the left ‘off’ of any discussion, I’ve just always figured that the Left’s position is a given.

You may be aware but I don't thing average Americans know the extent of it.

Dobbs has been pinning Nafta, Bilderbergs etc on the right from day one. Despite the fact that both parties are involved. I call that disingenuous and preparing the sheep to blame only the right for what is to come giving some of the real culprits cover.

...look both ways when crossing the street.

Dobbs has stiff neck on this issue and he is shaping public opinion to attack only one side despite his sideshow of being a 'centrist'.

Can't blame him much....a constant stream of left wing idiocy is enough to make anyone want to punch a hole through a wall....or someone's face...which is what I feel like doing every time I see Jerry Rivers on Fox...
