What if we all resolved not to waste our time with.... issues like gay marriage, the pledge of allegiance, school prayer, judicial appointments, gun control, stem cell research and welfare reform.

Yeah, right. Let's all become Democrats, in other words.

What a bunch of equine fecal matter.

The only way the middle class is going to survive in the end is thru bloody revolution.

No he isn't. He has a wide range of interests.

Just a shill for the RAT party. Anyone who works for CNN is suspect, look at the trouble Bob Novak caused the GOP.

The middle class does not do revolution. The ruling class excites the rabble which then does the bloody revolution.

Watch Dem talking points spill off Lou Dobbs' lips as he flirts with Ben Affleck and a woman from AEI looks on in horror.

In Lou's mind, values are wedge issues....he is a liberal pin head and he is out stumping for the democrats, period.

According to the nonpartisan Center for Public Integrity, from 1998 through 2004, lobbyists spent nearly $12 billion to not only influence legislation, but in many cases to write the language of the laws and regulations.

Not only does he split his infinitive, he adds an extra, and improper, "to" in for good measure.

"What does he know about being middle class?"

For starters, he knows that the American middle class props up the other two classes.

Mr Dobbs has not a clue what the hell he's talking about, as usual.

The guy's a parasite. I watched his show tonight - he's running for something soon, that's for sure.

Dobbs started his article with:

"I don't know about you, but I can't take seriously anyone who takes either the Republican Party or Democratic Party seriously -- in part because neither party takes you and me seriously; in part because both are bought and paid for by corporate America and special interests. And neither party gives a damn about the middle class."

Why would a liberal pinhead Democrat do that? Or you guys can't read?

The tax receipts don't show that at all. So how is your statement true?

Lobbyists are a symptom. It is not that there is too much money in politics. There is too much politics in money.

I actually like Lou Dobbs--a lot. He is one of the few in the media who has not swept illegal immigration, border problems, terrorism, or our manufacturing decline under the rug. And he takes wacks at both parties. In short, he is NOT A STOODGE, as so many in the MSM are these days. My only regret is that he works for CNN, but he doesn't appear to tow the usual CNN line.
