CNN and talk radio host Lou Dobbs, a strong proponent of U.S. border enforcement, told his radio audience a gunshot was fired into his home after a series of threatening phone calls.

"Three weeks ago this morning a shot was fired into my house, my wife was standing there," he said on his nationally syndicated radio show Monday. "This follows weeks and weeks of threatening phone calls."

"This shot was fired with my wife not 15 feet away."

Dobbs' comments can be heard below or here.

Dobbs said advocacy groups that support illegal aliens and have pressed for him to be fired "have created an atmosphere and have been unrelenting in their propaganda."

Outspoken opponents of Dobbs include the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Anti Defamation League, the National Council of La Raza, Internet media watchdog Media Matters and Geraldo Rivera of Fox News.

Last week, in a speech to Hispanics sponsored by New York City's largest Spanish-language daily newspaper, El Diario La Prensa, Rivera singled out Dobbs for what he called "the defamatory tone of the immigration debate" which has "slandered an entire race of people."

"Lou Dobbs is almost single-handedly responsible for creating, for being the architect of the young-Latino-as-scapegoat for everything that ails this country," Rivera said.

Rivera also told the audience his boss at Fox News assured him Dobbs won't be coming to the network.

"I can tell you proudly, when this man was widely rumored to be coming to my network, I called my boss a couple of weeks ago, and he said it's absolutely untrue," Rivera said. "Lou Dobbs is not coming to Fox News. He belongs at CNN. If they can justify his presence there that's their problem."

More from Dobbs Monday broadcast:

"If anybody thinks that we're not engaged in a battle for the soul of this country right now, you're sorely mistaken. And the more you stay on the sidelines and the more you don't make your voice heard, the more likely it is that we're going to lose this battle for the soul of the nation."

"My wife and I have been shot at, our driver, my house has been shot and hit. The investigation continues. I've had bodyguards now, you know, I'm not in the mood to put up with little fools like Geraldo Rivera."

"It's time we really awaken to what is happening in this country, it is ugly, it has to stop, and we have to find the courage to elect congressmen and senators, and yes, presidents who will speak truth. Not pander and not play politically correct games."

"We need to get real about what is happening in this country, and understand that if this battle for the soul of the country is lost, so much is lost that follows. Respect for our laws, respect for our borders, our ports, our national sovereignty.

"That respect demands, demands at least an honest debate on Capitol Hill about illegal immigration, it demands at least an honest debate on the airwaves."

"Why are we not enforcing laws, why do we not demand respect for our sovereignty, why do we not demand honest, open, straightforward debate."

"Why do we not acknowledge who were are, the most most racially, ethnically diverse society on the face of the earth?"

"Why don't we talk about how great this nation is, about the great things we accomplished, the great way in which we live, you know, the American way?"
More to come …

Hands (And Especially Bullets) Off Lou Dobbs!
By Brenda Walker

You might think that the Main Stream Media might show some concern at an apparent assassination attempt against one of their own.

But, as of this writing, only Fox and a couple local outlets (NBC New York and the Star Ledger) have reported on a shooting at the home of influential CNN anchor Lou Dobbs, who has been a consistent voice for law and borders for several years.

"A gunshot was fired at the New Jersey home of CNN's Lou Dobbs after a series of threatening phone calls earlier this month, the host told listeners on his nationally syndicated radio show.

“Dobbs, a fervent proponent of U.S. border enforcement, told listeners of 'The Lou Dobbs Show' on Monday that the incident is part of an ongoing assault against anyone who opposes amnesty or leniency toward illegal immigrants.

“'They've created an atmosphere and they've been unrelenting in their propaganda,' Dobbs said in reference to pro-immigration groups like the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), the National Council of La Raza and America's Voice. 'Three weeks ago this morning, a shot was fired at my house where I live. My wife was standing out and that followed weeks and weeks of threatening phone calls.'

Imagine the MSM hysteria if CBS’ Katie Couric had been targeted!

And it’s not as if there’s no precedent here. After a similar campaign of vilification, Dutch immigration patriot leader Pim Fortuyn was actually assassinated by a man who turned out to be a leftist immigration enthusiast—although that little detail took a long time to leak out.

Since a massive alien amnesty looks unlikely any time soon in an economy beset with continuing job loss, the Open-Borders Fifth Column needs to keep the troops riled up. That requires loud and frequent ethnic complaints, from manufactured outrage about a space alien Halloween costume to browbeating the already amenable San Francisco Board of Supervisors into loosening the requirement to drive with a license.

But Lou Dobb is the biggest target. The fact that he is married to a Hispanic woman, and her parents live with them on the family farm (according to Sixty Minutes) doesn't count for much when the thought police against "hate" get their jackboots in a bunch:

"A coalition of 11 Hispanic and pro-immigrant groups has launched a petition drive to force CNN and its advertisers to drop Lou Dobbs, following a similar effort that reportedly led dozens of companies to pull their ads from Fox's Glenn Beck show…

““The campaign to get CNN's Dobbs off the air was launched Tuesday by a coalition that includes the National Council of La Raza, the League of United Latin American Citizens, and the New Democrat Network.

“The group posted their petition at www.dropdobbs.com, where they hope to get 100,000 signatures in the next six weeks. Then, the document will be sent to CNN and Dobbs' advertisers, organizers say. “

Dobbs broadcasts have educated millions of Americans that illegal immigration is out of control and creates a variety of damage in the country, e.g. diminished national sovereignty, cheap labor displacing citizens, border chaos, increased local crime and overpopulation overwhelming infrastructure. Many Americans who would have otherwise felt isolated and intimidated by the otherwise unrelenting Open Borders propaganda came to understand that they were not alone from watching Lou Dobbs Tonight.

Needless to say, Dobbs is depicted by his enemies as being outside the “mainstreamâ€
