No one will ever accuse you of not taking the opportunity to reinforce your opinions. :-) Cheers.

Not a sensitive nerve, Ev; just taking my opportunity to voice MY opinions and reinforce them in view of your tendency to "correct" and obfuscate the issue any time one of us sees things differently.

Good grief! Just for the record, I have indeed watched him for years. IMO, he should have stayed with the Moneyline format. I just don't happen to agree completely with your opinion on him past or present although I'll say he was far better in the past, I still didn't feel his information or analysis was always the most informative or accurate and I just never cared for his style which I did find to be wee bit on the pompous side. No big deal.

As for his...

Dobbs is the spokesman for that financial viewpoint as seen by a majority of TV viewers

I don't need a "source" to make that statement, Evelyn; Dobbs is one of the top three CNN programs which knocks out any other economist's "show" in this country.

We were--I thought--commenting about Dobbs' show and where it has changed. I was giving credit for his awakening of the masses to the destruction that the Bush administration has...

thinkin, I guess you assumed (or in your vernacular which I love, ASSumed? LOL) that I haven't watched him for a long time which would be wrong. Maybe your apparent confidence in the "financial communty" is another area where our opinions might be a little different. But whatever....in the end, it's only your opinion and my opinion, two people in a sea of many opinions, and we happen to disagree on this one. So? Don't see any problem with that. Sorry if...

While I used to think he was at least somewhat better than some others when it came to money issues, I always found him to be something of a pompous ass.

Across the board, the financial community lined up in the same column as Dobbs from before W was ordained president (as opposed to the mega-multi-national corporations who are in bed with our government). There *is* a difference and to write off a good decade is where you and I apparently have our...

Well, I guess your opinion and mine are just different on that substance thang. Makes the world go 'round.

Yes, I'm aware of his family situation and the understandable influence on his immigration views. Wasn't there a story about his wife (Debi---his second, the Mexican) having a little problem at Newark airport a few years back while trying to bring a loaded gun in?

Sorry, Ev--he had a lot more substance than you're giving him credit for.

As for the illegals, he has a lot more righteous indignation, since his wife and family are all legals (Mexican).

While I used to think he was at least somewhat better than some others when it came to money issues, I always found him to be something of a pompous ass. He's been by far not the only one who's been anti-Bush, but he does it with more selfrighteous indignation which I found amusing. But all in all, he turned me off with his beating of dead horses with such drama and umbrage. He could be snotty at times, too.

I think he's basically losing his popularity and is a bit...

I *liked* Lou Dobbs when he was looking at the financial responsibility.

In fact, Dobbs was one of the first to criticize Bush and ride herd unmercifully about the growth of the Federal government (and budget) with no end in sight.

Up until (relatively) recently, Dobbs' show was one where you could actually *hear* the guests, there was a sense of decorum (no shouting over one another--everyone's voice WILL be heard) and there was a *real* opposing view offered...

I wondered about Rush, too.

I believe he deserves a special category of his own well beyond dickhood.

Mya, thank you for your nomination I am humbled.

Loved the "anchotainment", too, Annie.

The whole thing is very cleverly written I think. Glad some of you enjoy it, too.

Always glad to contribute to hours we won't get back. Heh.

I wondered about Rush, too.

Thanks for the link, Evelyn. I owe you a droll.
