Lou Dobbs and Rep, Ted Poe embrace Jim Crow tactics on CNN

We can't see how Lou Dobbs and US Rep. Ted Poe can be characterized as anything but disrespectful of Roland Martin in this exchange that aired on CNN in response to the birther controversy. People yell and scream all the time on cable news shows, but it was almost as if they said "look here boy you are out of line."

Dobbs should be ashamed of himself.

and yet CNN tries to consider themselves the most trusted name in news...

Actually Mr. POE is WRONG. John McCain was NOT born in America or in ANY American territory. He was born in LEASED property in Panama in what was then the Canal Zone which has ALWAYS BEEN Panamanian territory. The lease had expired and Panama took the land back. SO why would the GOP run a man for president who would never qualify? Could be because they want PALIN as pres. HORROR OF HORRORS! After the SCOTUS rules against McCain, Palin takes the White House. Dodged a bullet there.

the only reason for not producing the birth certificate is if there is an issue. the reality is that obama is much better than pelosi and the negro would be all over it if mccain. any american has a "tangible intrest" in this.

Q how are go and obama the same A no one has seen eithers birth cert

Q how are they different A God does not think he is obama

Roland Martin's fat head is about to explode! I really enjoyed watching Poe smack down Eric Holder yesterday for having not read the AZ law prior to criticizing it. Holder sheepishly admitted that he hadn't been "briefed" yet.

@not8upwthit I served in Vietnam under the command of Admiral McCain and he was very much an Eisenhower Republican and judging from his comments, I doubt that the father would have voted for the son. The FACTs are and the father knew this is that Senator McCain was NOT born in America. I also worked for the company that BOUGHT the 2000 election for the WORST PRESIDENT EVER. ENRON.

@exenrontexas --McCain has served this country and sacrificed more than your imposter ever will. He is a crook and has surrounded himself with worst crooks in DC and people still support this guy. Why ????

[toothpickdinner]

it insane for Roland Martin to try an reason with a racist

Lou fears a black men in the white house till he admits

it, you will never get any where its like trying teach a

pit bull dog not to fight if brought up to fight

Dobbs kept his cool like a professional against the savage.

I am ashamed that Ted Poe is my Congressman. Responsible Republican admit LONG AGO, that Obama is an American citizen. However, we KNOW that McCain was NOT born in America but in the Canal Zone. That DOES give him citizenship but he was NOT born in America.
