From what little I hear from him, his show has degenerated into a rant against free trade. I don't watch his show but I did catch a bit of it two days running. He was talking about immigration on both shows and the woman they had on the previous day was taking that same tack as Tejada--that his show is unbalanced because it doesn't talk about the contributions of immigrants. The counter to that is, obviously, that the contributions of legal immigrants, while noteworthy, is irrelevant to the problems of illegal immigrants. It would only be considered balance to those who conflate illegal and legal immigrants. I really don't like being on Dobbs's side on this issue. Anyway, yes, I saw elements of his anti free trade rant. The two issues have a related populist message. I don't like being on the populist side of any issue. <g> But I don't come at the illegal immigration issue from a populist perspective but rather from a security and integrity perspective.
