After over 30 years of association with CNN, Lou Dobbs resigned his post yesterday as in-house xenophobe, and will now most likely head over to FOX. While unsurprising, it's not entirely clear what closed the deal for his pink slip. Perhaps it was the continual calls for his ouster by opponents, or maybe it was the gun shots fired at his New Jersey home last month. Whatever the case, adios, cabrón!
The patronizing pseudo-journalist built his recent career around fomenting fear and hatred towards "illegal" undocumented workers who probably helped supply many of the fruits and vegetables he ate in his 300-acre upscale horse farm. While identifying himself as part of the conveniently-ambiguous "independent" political movement, it was clear that Lou "I'm married to a Latina, so I can't be racist" Dobbs, was dealing with anger issues as an aging white man clinging to the good ol' days. So, to celebrate his overdue departure, here's a look at some of the events leading up to his exit...
Gets His Crib Shot Up
• This wasn't the first time that Lou and his wife were involved in gunplay, as his boo was once busted for trying to smuggle a loaded handgun onto a flight at Newark Airport. However, it's not everyday that political commentators get their house tatted up with bullets. And whoever was trying to send a message apparently got through—Dobbs called it quits less than two weeks later. No comment.
