Dobbs & Guest hammer *

[Doctor_J]

Lou and his guest, registered Repub David Cay Johnson, just spent the first 1/2 of moneyline pounding Smirk. Johnson has a book out about how the Rove Admin is gutting the middle and upper-middle class ($30K - $500K).

THey were extremely unsympathetic to * and also took shots at Greenspan. THey showed graphs to point out how much wealth has been transferred to the upper .1% over the last few years. Johnson signed off with, "if that's what you want to vote for, you should know that's what you're doing" (paraphrase).

Even devout supply-siders are mortified by this economy. Things are looking up, at least election-wise

Edit:

Lou also ridiculed Friedman's fantasy of today:

1. I have to say....

Lou Dobbs has been kickin' ass lately!!!
He's been on fire, and tonight was no exception. I think that maybe, by some miracle, a true, principled conservative has been given one hour a night to hammer this ideals home. I don't often agree with him, and there have been times (particularly post-9-11), when he's been unbearable. But,he seems to truly embrace conservative principles, and Bush's fiscal irresponsibility seems to really annoy him.
It was a great interview -- worth watching on repeat.

5. Just nice to have something on cable TV that I agree with.

2. oo! oo! oo! tell what he said about Friedman's nonsense!

4. Something like

"What Friedman fails to mention, probably an honest oversight, is that our trade deficit with India stands at 8 BILLION DOLLARS".

He went on to mention another column in the LAT that was written tongue-in-cheek abou the current economy, and said, "read them both - both are amusing for very different reasons"

Ouch, babe.

3. He's the only Republican that has any actual intergrity.

If I were in Lou's position and I were a Democrat, with a Democratic president pulling this shit I would do the same thing.

6. I have to watch Dobbs

Really, I do. Loved the wording of his latest poll, too.
