Obama Slaps Lou Dobbs

CNN anchor Lou Dobbs is taking criticism from all sides for his hard-nosed stand on illegal immigration, with Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton jabbing at him from the Democratic side and a top aide to Sen. John McCain joining in from the Republican side.

On "Lou Dobbs Tonight," CNN correspondent Bill Tucker notted that according to the Nevada chapter of the Service Employee International Union of Nevada (SEIU), "we think that immigration is a broken system and one of the reasons we are excited to endorse Senator Obama is that he understands Americans' are ready for a change. We are excited for him to be in the White House to start making those changes."

According to Tucker, the Service workers union warmed to Obama last December when he made a verbal slap at Lou Dobbs. Obama responded to a question on immigration with this comment: ‘We're not going to be able to solve the problem if we're just shouting about it, you know, like Lou Dobbs and folks on television.’ â€

They don't like Lou Dobbs because he keeps this issue out in the open. Something the OBL's would like to keep hidden.

Keep your eyes open...they are using McCain against the American people its just like saying a few people like Lou are radical and most Republicans don't really care about illegal aliens in this country.
