In February 2005, Mother Jones ran this interview with Lou Dobbs. This one line from Dobbs speaks volumes about how seriously the man should be taken:
I cannot find anyone for whom free trade is good.
I’m tempted here to say something about the benefits from free trade that are enjoyed by the stockholders and employees of Dobbs’s employer, CNN — a network that broadcasts globally — but I’m too dull-witted to come up with a line that does justice to Dobbs’s surreal sense of reality.
