[Swede]

This is getting ridiculous.

[spanone]

1. mr dobbs should occasionally produce a brain

[hobbit709]

2. I wonder how many of these idiots can produce their own.

[47of74]

7. I didn't get a copy of mine until last year

When I applied for a passport. Since a lot of these reich wing idiots probably don't plan on traveling anywhere than the nearest race track well they probably don't have their own copies.

[Yupster]

16. I needed one for a passport

I called NYC and got one within two weeks without ever talking to a person. The key was when I typed in my credit card number.

[47of74]

18. Mine

I happen to live in the same county where I was born, so I just went down to the courthouse and got an official copy of the certificate made.

[City Lights]

3. It's already beyond ridiculous.

dobbs needs to get a life.

[Arkana]

4. Oh, Lou Dobbs, you nutty racist you.

I hope to God Obama just continues to ignore this tiny, extremely loud minority. He's done an excellent job so far on that front.

[qazplm]

5. He could produce one

and then it would simply be dismissed as a forgery.

He could produce birth announcements, and he could produce Hawaii officials attesting to his birth in Hawaii, and it would be dismissed. Oh wait, he's already done that.

[47of74]

6. Let me produce something for Mr. Dobbs...

Namely this...



And the President should produce the same thing to Mr. Dobbs as well!

[Mrs. Overall]

8. But the woman (Kitty Pilgrim) who guest hosted his show Friday, made the birthers look

like absolute fools--Alan Keyes and the dentist/attorney for the military major.

They looked absurd and she definitely made them out to be total asses as she presented all of the proof for Obama's citizenship.

[graywarrior]

9. Dobbs should produce a death certificate.

[Mz Pip]

11. He certainly is brain dead

if his critical thinking skills are any indication of brain activity.

[graywarrior]

12. When you're filled with bigotry and anger, you don't use all the parts of your brain.

[MadMaddie]

41. you are on fire tonight!!

He...he...Dobbs is worthless....one trick pony show...

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

10. Dobbs has had it in for Obama ever since Obama called out his fearmongering during the campaign.

It's personal.

Amazing that a guy with a TV show like this that's NOT on Fox News would be willing to trash his own credibility in this way.

[samrock]

13. Why doesnt't

Lou Dobbs move to FOX ... where he belongs??

[Spider Jerusalem]

14. This is just fucking stupid, really; these people are goddamned morons.

Fun fact for the 'where's Obama's birth certificate?!?' nutjobs; even if Obama had been born in Kenya (which he wasn't)...he'd STILL be a 'natural-born citizen' by virtue of having an American mother.

Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in those gaps. Section 1401 defines the following as people who are "citizens of the United States at birth:"

* Anyone born inside the United States *
* Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person's status as a citizen of the tribe
* Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
* Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
* Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
* Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
* Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
* A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

15. Is this Lou "Obama Waffles" Dobbs???!!

:eyes:

And the fringe gets even "fringier"...................

[Spazito]

17. LOL, so the racist homophobe Dobbs has joined the 8%ers eh...

I am shocked, no really, shocked!

:rofl:

Well, he has little to lose, his ratings are already in the toilet, his supporters dwindling down to the size one can "drown them in the bathtub", to paraphrase someone who Dobbs probably idolizes.

[inna]

19. you know what's hilarious??

the morons at worldnetdaily are convinced that Dobbs is liberal, and refer to his show as a "liberal talk show".

i couldn't believe it when i read it first! :rofl:

if Lou Dobbs is a "librul", then i am a tooth fairy! :rofl:

[Cali_Democrat]

20. Looks like Lou has gone full-fledged birther

No surprise considering that he's a total bigot.

[marmar]

21. Lou Dobbs is like an old pile of hippo dung.....

Hardened but still rancid.

[quakerboy]

22. Who advertises on his show again?

We've seen the birth certificate. Now its time to talk to advertisers about connecting their products to blatant racism.

[bobbolink]

23. It's a shame his mother wasn't able to have an abortion, and save the country.

Breeding ignorance is inexcuseable.

[Blue For You]

24. CNN needs to "produce a death certificate" for Lou's brain.

[Bolo Boffin]

35. And an autopsy as well.

"There appears to be an NAFTA Super-Lobotomy running right through the middle of Lou Dobb's brain."

[LeftishBrit]

25. I suppose he thinks Obama was born in Mexico?

[RagAss]

26. "Birthers" ...The Last Bastion of Cretinism in America"

and now they have a leader.

[Odin2005]

27. Why is this racist ass-pimple still on TV?

[TrogL]

28. This one's really gone off the deep end

(same link about 2/3 of the way down)

I agree with Lou Dobbs and I see his dilemna; but the American people have accepted Barak Obama as their President of the United States. And they want to give him a chance to fix this broken down country. So let Barak be President and then if he does a horrible job like all the other Presidents before him; with the exception of Ronald Reagan and JFK, let him rule because it is almost over! This country has been ruled by the International Bankers/Illuminati/Bilderbergers/Council of Foreign Relations devils for a very long time and there is nothing that we can do about it now but allow the Bible prophesies to be fulfilled !!

Yes the new world order antichrist devils are ruling the world and breaking down the American and world economy so they can have their One World Government and their One World Currency and Economic System; and their One World Church where even lucifer, who is their god will be worshipped and respected.

But don't worry!! Jesus and His Mighty Angels from heaven will return and defeat them all in hours after He has poured out His plagues upon the Earth because they would have martyred millions and millions of His Children; because they wouldn't take their zombie making and soul cursing Mark of the Beast Chip that is spoken of in Revelation 13 and 14 chapters!!


Ridiculous. I am the Anti-Christ and I wish people would learn how to spell it properly.

[CakeGrrl]

29. He can either tune into Hardball or have Chris Matthews send him a copy.

What a jerk.

[EFerrari]

30. It's good to see that no one defends this racist bastard any more. n/t

[redqueen]

31. No kidding. (nt)

[EFerrari]

33. His kind are the dangerous ones because they look and sound

sort of normal until you really listen to them. Well, he's busted out and is on full display now.

[redqueen]

34. Yeah... he got way too much credit

for being almost good on that one issue.

Thank goodness now there's no way on earth he could possibly be mistaken for anything close to a reasonable or sane person.

[NNN0LHI]

56. Yes the Dobbs fans have been very quiet recently

He used to have quite a following at one time.

Don

[JBoy]

32. Greasy xenophobic douchebag.

[Gabi Hayes]

36. I want this birther show to stay in the news as long as possible

the more pub it gets, the more pressure the farthest right of the far right party will put on the 'moderates,' which increases the chances of schism, while at the same time highlighting to fencesitters just how extreme the party of Lincoln (Continental, not Abe) has become.

As for Dobbs, he'd do well to get his lower teeth cleaned of those disgusting tobacky stains, especially after he went to the horse dentist for his new cutters

[izzybeans]

37. Chris Mathews can mail it to him.

[Gabi Hayes]

38. rachel maddow going to discuss it in about three minutes

heh

[ErinBerin84]

39. he was still doing it tonight

I turned it on five minutes before eight, and he was talking about it, saying "The LA Times is calling ME up and saying how dare I ask this, why don't they call up the White House and ask him to produce a birth certificate?!" I'm fine with Lou going to the birther territory, he's always been a racist asshole and doesn't deserve credibility on anything.

[kevinbgoode]

40. Hmm..maybe Dobbs own birth certificate can be lost

and then people can accuse him of being an illegal alien.

How do we know you are an American, Lou?

[depakid]

42. Yet another of the 999 reasons CNN is programmed off of my TV

Right alongside Fox and the fundie and spam channels.

[sendero]

43. Maybe Dobb should stop producing semen samples..

... on live TV. The bloody wanker.

[opihimoimoi]

44. clever manipulation....make trouble with doubts, fear, and bs....they know he has one...its to cause

doubt, and downplay Obama

[redqueen]

45. Wow, this one is unrec'd too... how very odd. (nt)

[prolesunited]

46. He obviously knows what will play with his audience

[shadowknows69]

47. They're trying to foster violence period. They know there are enough wingnuts with guns out there.

And they'll never be able to accept an "other" as President. No matter how many times the proof is produced.

[SoCalDem]

48. Lou Dobbs is a odious, ignorant, buffoonish toad...he belongs on FOX

Shame on CNN for poisoning 2 or 3 hours a day (including reruns) of air time with that clownish, bigotted xenophobe.

[undeterred]

49. Do they really think Chief Justice Roberts would have sworn him in if there was any doubt?

These idiots don't even trust their own.

[Mrs. Overall]

50. Not to mention the background check for the highest security clearance.

[tuckessee]

52. Performing security clearances on Presidents is a mere formality.

Do you really that Bill Clinton with his rampant drug use and serial woman moshing would pass a real security clearance? What about W and his lifetime of irresponsibilty? What about Veep Henry Wallace and his NKVD status? What about JFK & his drug use, womanizing and familial organized crime connections?

What do you think they'd do if someone who's been elected to highest office failed a security clearance? Nullify the elections?

[Mz Pip]

54. These security clearances

would have been done way beofre Obama ever ran for president. Background checks are done on people who are applying for admittance to the Bar, for passports, for teaching postions. Obama probably went through several different security checks long before he ever ran for president.

[Mrs. Overall]

55. You are a dipshit. I have a relative in the NSA and you can still

get a high security clearance in spite of drug use. They also don't care who you have fucked in your lifetime, though they do interview some of those people.

Hating on some Clintons and Kennedys?

[Arkana]

51. DU's Arkana Repeatedly Says Lou Dobbs Needs To Get A Hobby

[Cha]

53. lou dobbs needs to produce

an okay from a psychiatrist.

[KansDem]

57. What is ridiculous is CNN and other media outlets giving these inane assholes a public platform!

Are the profits really that impressive that it actually pays to give such clowns airtime?
