Shocking Lou Dobbs Video! Opinions Needed ASAP

WHAT THE HELL IS HE TALKING ABOUT? WHY IS HE ASKING THIS BIMBO TO JOIN WITH HIM TO SOLVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION? WHY IS HE TALKING RATIONALLY TO IRRATIONAL PEOPLE THAT WILL NEVER THINK THAT THEY ARE THE PROBLEM?? HERE WE GO, ANOTHER FRAUD .. I AM DONE WITH LOU .. AND IT'S SAD BECAUSE HE WAS ONE OF THE FEW PEOPLE IN THE MEDIA I HAD SOME FAITH IN ..

He really allowed the Hispanic lady interviewer to malign him ... he never should have allowed himself to get in this position. Definitely, definitely he wants to run for office, but I cannot vote for him ... and I was a very devoted viewer of his on CNN. He still talks strongly of border security as the first priority in solving illegal immigration problems. Janet Napolitano is telling us our borders are secure as she moves forth with her amnesty program. I did write her a letter asking her how in good faith to her country could she say our borders are now secure when it is so obviously not true! I am really angry about how Obama's policies are proceding. They pay no attention to the will of the American people. Somehow, and I don't know, comprehensive immigration reform has to be defeated, as does universal health care. In my mind, the two are tied together.

Lou Dobbs did state that illegal immigrants should be allowed amnesty under certain circumstances. I need to hear what those circumstances are before I can judge. I am a big fan of Lou Dobbs and will certainly give him the benefit of the doubt. I would love to see him run for office.

He deflected the interview with Maria with great aplomb and grace. He completely kerflumoxed her . . . good job Lou.

I'm looking forward to seeing what his future plans are.

He also needs to be brave and stick to what he says, or he shouldn't say it. It may very well be the case that Mexicans are bring more cases of diseases we don't traditionally have into the US. It's not racist; it's just the way it is. Mexico's health care and sanitation practices suck. It's a poor country. How is this racist? Dobbs should know how to explain things like this.

Why do Mexicans want to move here? Why don't Americans want to move to Mexico? It's because of our culture and form of government. Dobbs should be able to explain American Exceptionalism and show the Mexicans how uncontrolled migration will destroy the US. He should also recommend that Mexico borrow a copy of the US Constitution and try to figure out how to create their own culture of opportunity and ambition.

Welcome to ALIPAC Chobers. :)

Good post and I agree with you 100%.

I remember when he had LaRaza on his show and he folded with them too.He is a gentleman and it seems to be difficult for him to challenge radicals face to face.

I see nothing wrong with his saying he is Latinos Best Friend,I like Latinos too just don't like IA's no matter where they are from.

I never thought he would be a good President but a Senator of NJ ? Absolutely.

- He very carefully avoided suggesting mass amnesty and legalization under a very controlled set of circumstances for a chosen few.

- He didn't back down from the fact that illegal aliens are a significant contributor to crime.

- He spent the first half of the interview defending things he had said in the past. Leprosy took far too much of the discussion.

My take is that he hasn't caved in. He definitely took on the rhetoric of a politician about to run for office and at the same time he was annoyed at the host for how he was being portrayed by hispanics. His comments that we need to have an open and honest dialogue about illegal immigration suggested to me that he wants to get the facts out on the table and stop the divisive BS from the far left. I got the feeling that he wanted the law to be enforced rather than let emotion rule the issue. This is a good idea in my opinion. Specifically he still wants the border to be enforced. So, my final opinion is that Lou is positioning himself for a run at office but we need to wait and perhaps see what comes next. I'm not ready yet to say that Lou has gone to the dark side.

I agree with you Texasborn... I heard the same as you did evidentally.
I think it is a mistake to jump to such harsh conclusions on the basis of this interview. After all these years of Dobbs standing against Illegal Immigration it isn't even logical that he would abandon all those views.
There are many, many post's from people who are posting for the first time, Where have they been before? Not to say that we don't appreciate all the help we can get ...but why now to bring Dobbs down? Will they stay to help us defeat Amnesty? Why are so many so eager to jump on the Band Wagon to throw Dobbs under the bus...so to speak?

I am waiting to see the back peddling of Lou Dobbs in the coming days and weeks. Either way, he has alienated himself (no pun intended) from the right and been immobilized by the left. What are his next steps? A conservative run? I think people are sick of hearing the bull of the "secure border" line from Obama on down to Lou Dobbs. Too bad, I thought we had friend that was going to stand up and not bend at the waist. We are sometime away from elections and in the coming months, it will be interesting to see who rises from the ashes of the right or the libertarian parties.

Just watched the interview. I won't donate for him to be President- I think he should run for the senate seat in NJ. His home of residence. He would make a better senator than the incumbent (I think). 8)

W - Are you planning to do this before or after you contact him and try to clarify his positions?

I heard what Mr. Dobbs said on Telemundo and I have read the reactions of our supporters.

At this point, Mr. Dobbs is going to have to answer for what he specifically said on Telemundo but we will have to proceed with our public withdrawal of support as Mr. Dobbs's newly revealed positions, delivered to our opponents on Telemundo, are against the platform, goals, and mission of ALIPAC.

He has advocated a path to citizenship for illegal aliens and that would be very hard to correct. This interview is filled with other statements like apologizing for not speaking Spanish that are very problematic for us.

This interview combined with other alarming statements he has recently made on his radio show combined with his retreat from illegal immigration issues on his CNN show indicate a clear pattern.

I believe that unfortunately we are going to have to publicly rebuke Mr. Dobbs in very strong terms.

Along with that, I am going to have to personally apologize and ask for forgiveness from our supporters for having been misled by Mr. Dobbs.

Regardless of the reasons, I must now take a certain degree of blame and damage due to my recent and long standing support for someone that has done what Mr. Dobbs just did.

No apology necessary William. Lou Dobbs expressed feelings against illegal immigration on a regular basis for quite some time. That is why ALIPAC supported him. His views matched the mission of ALIPAC. Now that has changed. And he will lose that support based on his new position on illegal immigration. I still would like Lou to clarify why this change has occurred.....just for the record.

Dobbs will be used to split the vote in the upcoming elections, nothing more.

There is talk that Ron Paul will give it another go, and if so --- he will have tremendous momentum vs. Palin (Rino Neo-con sheep) and some of the other "given on a silver platter special intersets repubs").

The goal is to split the vote.

This is NOT Lou Dobbs...I repeat NOT!. We need to bombard his e-mail or however we can contact him and ask him for an explanation and what he REALLY stands for. I know it rattled him when the bullet flew past his wife. I've listened to him far too long to believe this could possibly be him - of his own free will.

We need to contact him and get some direct answers. At this point, I say PULL THE PLUG on a presidency run...or even the House/Senate. If he's for legalizing ANY illegal aliens...then NO - he's not our guy after all.

I'll be supporting Sarah Palin (assuming SHE is not pro-amnesty)
