His coverage of the "birther" movement, which questions the authenticity of Barack Obama's birth certificate, has brought the most fallout.

Whether Lou Dobbs keeps his job or not is none of Yahoo’s damn business. Yahoo is appropriately named.

Lou Dobbs is more of a journalist than Dan Rather ever was!

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

Are we going to start voting now on who keeps their jobs? Good way to eliminate controversial speech.

If that is what it has come down to, how about a poll on whether the squatter at 1600 Penn Ave keeps his job.

Gotta love that 2% “No sure/No opinion” crowd. They love doing these polls.

Shep Smith isn’t doing anything with his time slot. Let Dobbs have that one.

Agreed.

Fox should replace Shemale Smith with Dobbs, if for no other reason than to save money on makeup expenses.
