Attack, attack, attack. Then blame Bush. Then, attack, attack, attack. Then laugh at opponent. Then blame bush. Begin again. Good for him. It was interesting to me, to be channel surfing and come along to Lou and see him questioning (I don't recall what it was he was questioning, I just found it intersting that here's Lou, on CNN, questioning). Figured it wouldn't be long...... Agreed...he will show up on Fox where all the folks in rehab show up and will be greated with open arms. Perhaps he'll write a CNN tell-all - 'course we get some of that inside scoop from a couple other conservatives who came over like Chris Plante and Beck (but until Beck cleans up his act and uses the proper language of UNalienable rights v INalienable rights ... I only take him as interesting, not serious. Glenn looks a bit pompous from time to time and likes to interject his own personal stories when he portends to be interviewing someone about their story, but I digress. Still a fan, just a bit skeptical). HA – I knew as soon as he started veering off the line he’d be attacked. Attack, attack, attack. Then blame Bush. Then, attack, attack, attack.

Our laws are in English, but our congress will not make English our official language. It's like we used to have a value of fairness in this country. How do you feel if you stood in line to purchase your groceries at the supermarket, and someone suddenly stands in front of you in line? Then suddenly you complain and the cashier ignores you. Then suddenly, another person gets in front of you. You would probably complain, or move to another line. Lets suppose your complaints are ignored, and you do move to another line. But, in the other line people get in front of you in the line. You look around to find someone who is in charge, but cannot find anyone. What you do find is a crowed of people cutting in line and not caring what they are doing, in fact, they feel justified! This is what is happening to our grade schools, social security, welfare benefits, social programs, every program run by the government that was a safety net for it's citizens but are used and abused by illegal, law braking non-citizens. So, now you may not feel the effects of these abuses, but these programs are going to either fail because "the system" was never set up to do this, or of course, the government is going to do what their only short sighted solution has always been; that is rob the law abiding citizens with charging more taxes.

I wouldn't be surprized to see hin pop up as a guest on Fox a few times and then get a slot. The news mischaracterizes his association with the so-called "birhters". I heard him say that he believes Obama was born in Hawaii, but says (and I agree) Obama should release the "long form" birth certificate, and get it over with. At that point he could say he has been transpearant, and then the wackos could dummy up all the phony stuff they want. Of course they would say the Hawain authorities were in on a conspiracy, but that's going to happen. I also think Lou could do well in politics. A run for the Senate would shake things up a bit. Good luck to him. Lou should have great sucess whereever he lands. I wouldn’t be surprized to see hin pop up as a guest on Fox a few times and then get a slot.

Yes, they DO think the American public is that stupid. They're partly correct: the typical CNN-watcher is that stupid.

I forget his name but he is a despicable person. As for Lou I hope he has success in the future. I did not always agree with him but people clearly knew where he stood. My best guess is he will end up at the the fox business network. I don’t know how lou put up with that guy who reads the letters. I forget his name but he is a despicable person.
