Beck: “This guy (President Obama), is, I believe, a racist.”
Dobbs: “And there’s Van Jones saying, “Well, you know, you said something I don’t like, so what are we gonna do? We’ll just attack your sponsors.” That didn’t work out so shiny for him, did it? So, by the way, I gotta say hats off to Glenn Beck for having the guts to stand up to this.”
More commentary, a transcript, and my civil rights friendly boot up Lou Dobbs keister below the fold.

It’s official. CNN is FOXlite
On Friday, the Southern Poverty Law Center called on CNN to fire Dobbs for trading in “racist conspiracy theories.” And some of Dobbs’ staff at CNN have told him and network executives that they are uncomfortable with his persistent focus on the story.Klein defended Dobbs, saying that the host’s treatment of the so-called “birther” movement has been “legitimate.”
Does this guy even watch his own network? Or does he just prefer to let Dobbs’s xenophobic McCarthyistic mania masquerade as objective journalism?
