CNN's Martin: Birther's "I want my country back" comment means "How is this black guy all of the sudden running the country?"

      Is Lou seriously angling to be the next Beck?

      Dear Lou Dobbs,

      This may come as a shock to you, nevertheless here goes: Barak Obama is not only the President of United States of America; he's also a US citizen. I'm sure last November was a tough pill for you to swallow, nevertheless, you've had enough time to get over it and move on, so please do so.

      Let me make something abundantly clear to you, something most of your colleagues don't have the guts to tell you: this birth certificate junk you're peddling on behalf of America's crackpots is wholly racist.

      Ask yourself why no one questioned the birthplace of Presidents Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy, Eisenhower, Truman, or Roosevelt.

      Seriously, your credibility drops every freakin' second you spend questioning the legitimacy of President Obama's citizenship. More importantly, you're stoking the flames of lunacy, so cut the crap.

      Sincerely,
      Report Abuse

      Lou is taking the word of a caller who doesn't even know what's he's talking about to impugn a collegue of his.

      But then I guess if he's impugning the POTUS, he'll stoop to anything. Very unprofessional at the least. Don't make me say what the worst would be.

      Yes, Louser, we leftists are superior to you and your ilk.

      Want proof? Watch the full video with the Zip-Loc Lady. Some 'moran' in another part of that video was talking about dead baby juice (!) and God knows what else. WTH???

      Reichwinkers are certifiably insane. That's it. That's all that needs to be said.

        I think the Zip-Loc lady is a close relation to the lady at the McCain rally who worried that Obama was an Arab.

        On another matter, Yeah, Loony Lou, you're a racist. I take it your wife sleeps in a separate bedroom now that she's knows who you really are.

          A first cousin is the Clinton supporter who decried the Democratic party for preferring a "inadequate black man".

      Lou, it is racist... how else would you explain the "I want my Country back!" comment. How did President Obama take away her country?

      I didn't vote for President Bush but I didn't feel he took away his country. This is the first time that these "King of the Hill" folks have seen a President that doesn't look like themselves, well guess what, to quote Martin... "Get Over It"

      How did Lou Dobbs miss Martin's "How is this black guy all of the sudden running the country"

      btw, the caller just debunked you... he said the the Certificate of Live Birth is more complete than a birth certificate. Guess what President Obama released? His Certificate of Live Birth.

      The fact that Lou keeps bringing up this birth certificate non-issue may not be specifically racist on his part, but the very fact that this whole issue was created BY racists who can't come to terms that a black man lives in the White house is one that poor ole Lou should consider.

      So unless the left-wing Barack Obama defenders invented a time machine and went back to Aug 13th 1961 and put this --->

      Lou Dobbs should be fired by CNN for giving red meat to the knuckle draggers feeding frenzy.

      How else do you describe these idiots who were asking Rep. Castle about the presidents birth certificate, losing their country and dead baby juice injections.

      These were the bottom of the food chain and Dobbs loves feeding them the crap they need to survive.

      If a national news network is going to keep an opinionist who gives voice to the lunatics in this country, CNN's sponsors needs to be boycotted until they return to being a news organization.

      I guess it's just coincidence that it only happened to Obama and no prior Prez or candidate.

      Just more proof of racists who don't know what real racism is. Just like that GOPer who recently sent out the blatantly racist e-mails and said he sent them, but they weren't disrespectful in any way. It's amazing how the racists are coming out of the closets.

      Another example of proof racism is still an issue in America.

      Dobbs should be forced to resign. He knows better. Do not feel sorry for him. He could work for Fox. We have blocked Fox news reports in our home. Their views are unamerican, racist and insulting to a nation in need of serious health care and jobs. This is all just a diversion for the right.

      MSNBC stated that CNN claims that Dobbs is the only talking head that still does research and fact based reporting. CNN needs to either retract thier claim or Dobbs statement. Personally, I think they should do both. CNN lost their creditability in this American Florida home.

        Dobbs, ramblings made absolutely no sense at all. He has lost it. Besides no state is going to give anyone the original they keep that on record. The best anyone is going to get is a certified copy. For him to insult Liberals and deny how ridiculous the Right is being over their refusal, to believe the proof is pathetic. Guess he finally figured out, that the crazier, you are on air, the more money you make. He's waiting for offers from Fox News.

      I have always been a fan of Mr. Dobbs but It seems that he has lost his sense of reason in consideration of this Birther's group.
      Doesn't he know that with his statements he is giving air to this Birther's movement. Why is he all of a sudden a Radical mess mongering REPUBLICAN.

      When You Find the Real Lou Dobbs, Let me know, this one is am imposter
