In defense of Lou Dobbs
Nasty, nativist and pandering to the worst in America? Sure. But overstepping the bounds of the First Amendment? Uh, nope.

    Various non-profits and even elected officials have direct or indirect links to the MexicanGovernment, and that government has not only said they're going to be using non-profits to push their agenda, but they encouraged their citizens in our country - and even Mexican-Americans - to push their agenda.

    I'd be interested in how much power you really think the "MexicanGovernment" has in this country. What "agenda" are these non-profits pushing (can non-profits "push?") that's different than the program shared by money interests on both sides of the border: move dirty industries south, bring cheap labor over to drive wages down but keep those people technically "illegal" so they can be controlled.

    I'm serious. What does this "MexicanGovernment" want that they haven't got already? I'm hoping you're not going to bust out ameros and NorthAmerican SuperHighways... but even so, isn't that something that's supposed to be on the agenda of both major parties?
