Lou Dobbs Shows Pol Chops

Lou Dobbs: dumping the white sheet and donning the sombrero.

"Whatever you have thought of me in the past, I can tell you right now that I am one of your greatest friends and I mean for us to work together."

Said Lou Dobbs in a Telemundo interview the other day.

So Dobbs seems well on the way to becoming a full-fledged pol if we accept abandonment of 'firmly held' principles as a crucial step in the process. Sure, he had horrible, racist, bigoted principles... but he was always consistent in labeling 'the legalization of undocumented workers' as an unfair amnesty. But now, as a putative politician, he tells Telemundo he supports 'the legalization of undocumented workers'. Ah... the sweet stink of self-serving hypocrisy.
