Lou Dobbs Slams MSNBC, Mocks Chris Matthews And Calls Dylan Ratigan And Cenk Uygur "Insane"
http://loudobbs.com/blog?action=viewBlog&blogID=-202737692611592271|MSNBC Hosts Say the Darndest Things>
Jul-09-2010

GE's Gift to the Obama Administration always provides a quote or two that makes you go "Hmmm." But the place where news goes to die on Thursday night provided us with two gems that can't be ignored.

The first comes from a new player: MSNBC guest anchor Cenk Uygur filled in for the equally insane and inane Dylan Ratigan...

...Then there's the old-standby, Mr. Tingle Up His Leg Chris Matthews. The liberal talker ended his show by arguing that there are two types of people in the country at the moment: those who want things to improve and those who want to see the country, and therefore the president, fail...

...How can anyone watch this nonsense?

3. Takes one to know one, so Big Lou certainly can spot
an insane person.

10. Talk radio will take in anyone who has enough piss and vinegar.

Even drug addicts like Lush Rimjob and Glenn Dreck.

26. Dobbs is a bigot plain and simple.
He can't stand people pointing out the realities of this country's struggles with race and identity. He especially dislikes intelligent and assertive people of color like Cenk. Matthews is a blow hard, but occasionally gets it right. He had Eugene Robinson and Pat Buchanan on responding to Rush Limbaugh's latest racial rants. Of course Buchanan defended Limbaugh because Pat holds the same views. Dobbs is part of the Triumvirate of mainstream racism and bigotry with Buchanan and Limbaugh. They must protect the status of the White Christian Male as the top of the social hierarchy. There are people who would rather see the country burn than to see it succeed at the hands of a Black president and a changing racial make up because that one once and for all dispel the myth of racial inferiority that shelters their fragile egos.

28. Well said my friend...

Indeed we are surrounded by many people who would rather this counrty go down the tubes that have a Black man succeed. Ms Garofalo stated this on KO many months ago and it is true. Speaking of her, is she on the Kos, Shuster, Watson no fly list of Phil Griffin because of her stating the facts correctly????

32. She must have pissed somebody off.
I did not see her on Bill Maher even once this season and she is usually good for about 2 episodes. She definitely calls it like she sees it and is pretty spot on.

38. And by "slams", you mean he says he doesn't like it.
Nice commentary, Lou. He can't add any critique or substance, he's just like 'Look what the bad mean liberals say'. Pathetic.

K&R

47. The best part
is that you agree with Free Republic and the right wing NewsBusters as well since they had the same reaction.

Good company.

If he were such a fantastic commentator, he'd still be on the air, right?

He was too hot to handle, even by conservative standards.
