I just don't get him... just weird to me.

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed a "change" in Lou?
He used to seem so cool, calm and collected and determined.
He seems "all over the place" to me.
Is it just me???

I think he is just so angry at what is happening to this country and the uncareing people we have in DC really ticks him off.

Did you hear him today, he wants people to start watching for an independant canidate, and send him our Ideas of who we think would be good, but he said no lawyers we have enough of them

I think someone like lou Barletta, is what he is thinking, you know a normal patriot.

Maybe youre right about his being so fed up. I was rather rabid when
going to Tractor Supply to purchase some tarps and they were all,
made in China!!! My daughter and became obcessed and starting
reading labels on everything. We did find some jackets made in the
USA and some hooks that we couldnt find a use for!!!!!!

The mayor in Hazelton PA who passed the immigraion laws the aclu and Lulac are not found o,f and started a law suit againt the town, he just won re-election with 90% of the vote.

What about Senator Dorgan? He seems to care about the People?

I think he is looking for an outstanding patriot citizen who is not in our U.S. government, I don't think we should trust anyone in DC.

Hi MontereySherry. Welcome (I'm late on that, I know -sorry!)
That's good point, I think he's basically a good and honorable public servant (pretty rare these days, eh?)

Oh, also meant to say - I noticed your posting on the other thread somewhere.... about vets and specifically your family experience and wanted to say you make a great point. I, too, know of a family (wife+4 kids) that lost a father in Vietnam (Major US Army; Rangers or Green Berets, can't recall which offhand), anyhow... the family struggled a lot, the kids had big problems with drugs, relationships, etc. One of the kids ended up committing suicide in her mid 20's.. The families of those great servicepeople also pay a terrible price as well.

Only the best thoughts to you.

Lou cannot endorse candidates on CNN or show overt bias as that technically would be a violation of Federal Elections law since CNN is a corporation and corporations are prohibited from such.

He could endorse on his own time, but it would be highly untraditional for any news anchor to endorse a candidate. I do not think that has ever happened in the past and if an anchor did so, he would be unable to report into the future with any perceptions of fairness from the public.

Hey, that's not a bad idea........

Barletta/Simcox 08!!!!

You know If we find some one good I'll bet Lou Dobbs would donate alot of money to a candidate he really wants elected!!

Lou Barletta,wow, that is a great idea. I suggested Jeff Sessions, but I think you are right about finding someone who is not from DC...and someone that has the guts to stand up for the U.S.

How about William Gheen from ALIPAC, and Roy Beck from NumbersUSA?

I can't remember the exact figures at the moment, but I do know that registered Independents out number the other 2 parties. Probably the reason Lou says the people should come up with an Independent candidate because the time is ripe for one. Everyone is fed up with this government and its lies and its refusal to represent the people, and if an Independent candidate came into the race (one the Reps and Dems couldn't run off), he or she would stand a good chance of winning.

As for Lou, I listened to him carefully yesterday when the subject came up about him running for President. He said he would rather continue to be an advocate for the American people, but he didn't come right out and say no.

I think Lou is very angry, too, and that he's trying to galvanize Americans into taking back their country through the political process. If it takes an unorthodox approach, so be it.
