Re: Shocking Lou Dobbs Video! Opinions Needed ASAP
This interview was upsetting to say the least. I realized that Lou was spending a lot of time trying to keep it from becoming a sleazy, emotional clash and had his hands full in the effort.
I wouldn't vote for him if he truly has in mind making an effort to legalize some portion of the criminal, illegal migrant group. There is great pressure to do just that. But, the majority of this countries citizens stand firmly against rewarding sneaks who came here without respect for our laws, and illegally, with any kind of amnesty for any reason. That doesn't mean that Lou sees it as we do. When I watched and listened to his show he did seem to soften his responses and lean toward some sort of partial amnesty under what he referred to as the right conditions. What those "right conditions" might be were never clear to me.
This wasn't his best moment and it was difficult to feel good as he squirmed about trying to keep things moving ahead in a civil fashion. Whether or not he could have said more in the defense of Sheriff Joe, he did try to state the facts and defuse the effort that was being made to make Joe look bad despite the wonderful job he is doing. There wasn't much time allowed for Lou to speak without finger pointing and interruption.
There is a lot of ground to be covered before it can be clearly stated that he is a turn coat and snap judgements made based on a difficult interview situation don't do any good at all.
If Lou Dobbs is truly becoming a sell out to the Globalists and puppet masters who wish to destroy this country, it will be a while before that can be established without question. Wishing Lou to be 100% in agreement with all who wish we could just throw the illegals out and lock the borders in order for Lou to be worth our support is not a fair standard to hold him to. I wish we had a piper to lead the illegals back over the border but that only happens in fairy tales. I'd settle for a strong enforcement of our laws, closing the borders and sever punishment of employers who hire illegals as a starting place.
This interview is a small moment in the progress of evolving events. Waiting to see what a whole presentation of goals from Lou might be could be wiser decision. A quick dismissal of him as a loyal American because of a difficult interview with a shifty TV host who was out to cow him into submission seems harsh. She tried to force him to repent everything he may have ever said that she felt was unacceptable and in so doing she wasted the majority of the program and lost the chance to hear what his goals might include. That left the listeners like us in the dark and wondering also. To bad !
No one would come out sounding or looking wonderfully when pushed through such a hostile interview. I am withholding judgment for the moment. He made me feel uncomfortable about trusting him during this interview. However, as I previously stated, Lou didn't have much of a chance to get out a statement of his goals and we would need that to make a final decision on supporting him.
Lou said he had the smartest audience
Lou frequently referred to the number of amnesties since 1986 and defined as amnesty any legalization of any group of illegal aliens. So make no mistake, what lou was proposing was amnesty. This is a betrayal and treachery of the highest order. Cute lou. Have you looked at yourself in the mirror lately. I feel disgusted and betrayed. It turns out you are not a man of principle at all. I want nothing more to do with you.
Lou Dobbs was bushwhacked
Obviously the interviewer was trying to smear Lou Dobbs.
I'm well aware of Lou Dobbs' position. Lou may be for reform and certain legal immigration principles.
The interviewer kept on talking about the "civil" rights of illegal immigrants. What civil rights? Where in the Constitution does it say illegal immigrants have rights.
Lou Dobbs has it right, she was all rhetoric.
Illegal immigration is an issue and we need to deal with it.
Immigration reform does not mean amnesty. We can reform policy to flatly deny any entry period.
I don't see anything unusual to Lou Dobbs views nor do I see the evidence as Lou Dobbs is a sell-out!
Sorry. I hope this thread is not an attempt to compile a negative view of Lou Dobbs.
Lou Dobbs Telemundo interview
Yes, I, too am disappointed with how Lou handled the pushy interviewer. Not the Lou I loved to watch who had firmness and resolve regarding building a wall and giving no quarter to those here illegally. He railed against amnesty, drivers licenses or anything else for the illegal crowd, feeling they are not entitled, which is true.
What has happened, Lou, where is that fighting spirit? If you need and want our backing, re-stiffen that spine. Otherwise, how in heck do you differ from the Dems and Rs who fear them?
