Lou Dobbs blaming state and local government exclusively on CNN now.
We should blast them with email covering the facts.

The Rovian spin machine is in full gear now.

4. Go to the CNN web site. At the bottom of the page, there's a 'contact us'
link. You can blast them with feedback there. I don't have an email addy for Lou Dobbs - perhaps someone else here who has a media list does?

18. Sent an email
to CNN. Told them I couldn't stand watching Lou Dobbs any more because he was so biased.

Of course, they don't know that I have only watched Lou Dobbs once and nearly barfed and have never watched it since.

3. I saw that
Kitty Pilgrim was the correspondent. It was a pathetic hatchet job. They even trashed the Times-Picayune.

And they did an interview with someone named Bob Williams of the Evergreen Freedom Foundation. Who the hell is this guy?

10. A Republican shill. Check this out:
Edited on Tue Sep-06-05 05:26 PM by FormerRepublican
"Founded in 1991 with a base of 341 supporters, the Evergreen Freedom Foundation (EFF) is a private, non-profit, public policy research organization in Washington state. Our funding comes from more than 3,300 individual members and various foundational grants. We do not accept public funds.

Our mission is to advance individual liberty, free enterprise, and limited and accountable government.

Our primary research areas are budget and taxes, education, health care, welfare, and citizenship and governance. Within those areas we publish studies, conduct seminars, and work to provide information for legislators, journalists and the general public.

It is our core belief that a freedom loving people must understand the principles from which freedom is derived. EFF's objective, therefore, is to disseminate those key ideals and motivate the citizenry to act upon them.

In order to pass the torch of liberty from one generation to the next, the Evergreen Freedom Foundation relies on the voluntary donations of private foundations and individual citizens like you. EFF neither solicits nor accepts funds from public sources. The below graph illustrates our income sources since EFF's founding:"

The key is the 2nd paragraph. Easy to see they're right wing propagandists.

Lou Dobbs is on my DO NOT WATCH list.

(Edit to repair my brain dead spelling.)

16. That 'everyone has to share blame' thing...
is right wing slang for "Don't blame us...everybody screwed the pooch on this one."

12. CBS - are lining up the facts against FEMA and WH and congress

This problem is bigger than New Orleans - it all the states

Fema - could not move without all this stupid security against evacuuees

Stupid - we have met the enemy and it is us

We are so afraid of others that we crippled ourselves

Stupid ******* government

13. What is his basis for that?
Just that he has his head shoved up Dubya's ass? Or did he have some facts for those claims?? I have always hated Lou Dobbs. I can't even watch him. Fat pompous pig.

14. He's always been a racist, elitist, blatant Republican
What are you guys even surprised? Have you ever watched his show? It's a daily 1-hour xenophobia fest.

Of course he is going to protect his golden monkey! Lou Dobbs is as reliable with facts and info as Rush Limpballs.
