Loud Dobbs Audience is BITTER!
Edited on Tue Apr-15-08 08:17 PM by Phred42
Tonights Poll on Lou Dobbs Show WAS:

Which of these Best Describes your Attitude as an American Citizen?
- Partisan & Pitiful
- Bitter & Angry
- Independent & Proud


Dobbs took every opportunity during the show to escalate and legitimize the attack on Obama for his 'Bitter" statement.

I Missed the end of the show so I don't know if Dobbs aired the results - sometimes he doesn't for various reasons

Here are the Results - KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS DOBBS' Audience! Taken from Dobbs Website immediately after the show.

Which of these Best Describes your Attitude as an American Citizen?
- Partisan & Pitiful.....2% (151)
- Bitter & Angry........66% (5030)
- Independent & Proud...32% (2493)

Sorry Lou - Your Viewers are Bitter and apparently WITH Obama - now cut the crap!
:rofl:


pS I have a screen print of the website to prove these numbers but I don't have the authority to post it here.

2. The cure for bitterness.
Betty Botter had some butter,
"But," she said, "this butter's bitter.
If I bake this bitter butter,
it would make my batter bitter.
But a bit of better butter--
that would make my batter better."


So she bought a bit of butter,
better than her bitter butter,
and she baked it in her batter,
and the batter was not bitter.
So 'twas better Betty Botter
bought a bit of better butter.

6. Americans have no problem with the word bitter when
We can't get student loans but have to pay through the noise for bank loans to go to college and the rest of the world has free college education; we are damn sure bitter and the rest of the world has free health care except South Africa and America. Oh yea, we are bitter.

9. Isn't he the guy who all the time rants against...
...immigrants stealing jobs and/or "reports" on jobs shipped overseas? And now he is surprised that his very audience might be actually "bitter"?

15. Yes, he has two themes
1. Immigrants are lazy and shiftless. They want free stuff and they don't want to work for it.

2. They're stealing all our jobs.

17. no - it's ILLEGAL immigrants - not the ones here LEGALLY...
BIG difference...

and yes - the ILLEGALS do take away jobs - just look at the construction industry here in Vegas...

and these are some of the most SKILLED jobs they are taking away from HONEST citizens...

18. Hardly their fault that corrupt white people will pay them less
than a qualified American worker who can do the same job. And illegals do tend to work very hard. Can't really blame someone that has come from dire poverty, risked a long and dangerous trek through the desert, and manages to find work so they can send it back to their starving family for doing so. It's whites that hire them and exploit them. And as long as that continues, they will keep coming over.

14. That was kind of a "gimme"
You have to be pretty angry and bitter to watch Dobbs to begin with. I'm surprised it was so low.
