Just when I thought that right-wing loons could not get any more ridiculous with their ‘Obama wants your guns‘ paranoia and hysteria…Lou Dobbs opens his big fat mouth and proves me wrong. Here’s what Dobbs had to say about President Obama and his supposed assault on the constitution. Apparently, Dobbs’ decade long slide into total madness continues unabated.
On Fox Business yesterday (video at end of post):
The president is so committed to constraining or dismissing outright our 2nd Amendment rights, it makes you wonder why he’s not ridding the Constitution of the 1st Amendment as well. Assembly, free expression, freedom of religion, at least the right to assemble, then implement a curfew, shut down the sale of liquor and drugs. Why don’t we close down all the bars and nightclubs, get people off our mean streets in the late hours all across America. That might have economic consequences, right?
You’ve got to wonder why the president doesn’t double down in his assault on the Constitution, taking on not only the Second, but the First Amendment, the Fourth, the Fourteenth. There may be a reason he’s begun with the 2nd Amendment. Without our rights under the Second Amendment, removing the rest of our Bill of Rights would be a lot easier. Wouldn’t it?
Let’s hope everyone understands the priorities of the left here and the reasons they’re beginning their effort to roll back our 2nd Amendment rights.
Your Fox crazies at work, folks. Glenn Beck could not have worded conspiracy-minded garbage of that sort any better.
Sometimes I have to wonder if jackasses like Dobbs actually believe the nonsense they spew in their daily anti-Obama tirades or is it all one big fucking game for them. Really, how ignorant and filled with hate must one be to actually believe that the president’s request for sensible gun laws is somehow a prelude to annihilating the Bill of Rights?
And meanwhile, feeble-minded monkeys who actually believe the bullshit and fear-mongering uttered by the likes of Dobbs, are on a gun-buying frenzy. Guns and ammunition sales have gone through the roof with an emphasis on purchases of semiautomatic rifles and high capacity magazines which are selling at five times the price they were selling a few weeks back.
“If I had 1,000 AR-15s I could sell them in a week,” said Jack Smith, an independent gun dealer in Des Moines, referring to the popular style of semiautomatic rifle that drew national attention after Adam Lanza used one to kill 20 children and 6 adults at a Newtown school. “When I close, they beat on the glass to be let in,” Mr. Smith said of his customers. “They’ll wave money at me.”
…
Dale Raby, who manages one of two Gus’s Guns shops in Green Bay, Wis., said his inventory of guns and ammunition was almost cleaned out, and that most of the interest was in AR-15-style rifles.
“I had almost fistfights over the remaining inventory of that type gun,” he said.
While gun manufacturers and dealers laugh all the way to the bank, twenty 6-year-olds lie buried as do another 917 Americans killed by gunshots since the Newtown shooting…but the real craziness has not yet begun. That will happen tomorrow when the President presents his proposals for saner gun laws. That’s when the screeching from every self-proclaimed patriot Ted Nugent-loving sociopath with a gun fetish begins in earnest.
It’s almost enough to make one lose their faith in humanity.

He is sorta right. check out NDAA
I also have wondered if these foxbots and friends really believe the crap they spew. I think it’s a game to them and that they themselves are surprised at how easily they can control the crazies. They both feed off each other.
I am saddened to suggest it, but it appears to me that a lot of what is going on around all this gun hysteria may be some kind of marketing effort by gun interests because it certainly seems to be paying off for them big time, doesn’t it?
It would not surprise me at all if I heard some of that kind of people say something on the order of, “What are a few casualties on the way to increased fortunes?”
It is a sad commentary, but I have my own fears and suspicions that some of our assumed moral fabric in this country may not always be what it used to be or what it is sometimes cracked up to be.
Every time one of these idiots crawls out from under another rock, I am comforted by the notion of human mortality. Either they will die and the world will be a better place without them or I will die and will no longer have to suffer their foolishness.
No Wonder Dobbs left CNN. He’s a walking encyclopedia of stupid.
What really bothers me is thelack of backup checks that were made in the hysteria of the past month. Have gun dealers been too busy racking in the money that mental cases bought more AR 15s and passed between the cracks.
The faster we pass legislation,the sooner the ATF can start their important duty of checking gun dealers and limiting access to semi-automatic rifles and magazines. I hope they eliminate gun shows that are the real source of ammunition for criminals
I am so exhausted of this stupidity. America has 300 million people against 5 million NRA members. How did we let this extremist and disillusioned minority lead the discussion on gun safety ?
FOX, NRA, GOP… They are all about the almighty dollar… BILLIONS OF THEM. We know they sold their souls a long time ago and now “$peak in tongue$.”
I remember Lou Dobbs on CNN when he began his immigration townhall style meetings. I think that was Lou’s spiral downward into far-right extremism.
It would seem that Dobbs is trying to paint the president as tyrannical, who is trying to destroy our Constitution, when it really is Republicans who want to destroy the Constitution by amending it to deny equal rights to gay people.
Republicans love to push the Constitution, except for the parts they don’t like.
Why do Dobbs and a host of other right wing loons do it?
Simple – MONEY !
The hate mongers have made billions in promoting their toxic verbal bile to the gullible and have made millionaires of people like Palin, Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity, O’Reilly and so on – Dobbs is just the latest moron to jump on the money wagon putting his profit margin ahead of loyalty, betterment and prosperity of our Country and 300 million Americans.
PS – Why a so-called “news” channel permits the total lack of truth, ethics and lack of journalistic integrity on it’s airwaves daily, is beyond me. Political terrorists is what they’ve become.
