Lou Dobbs Doesn’t Read ReformNY

Thanks to a loyal reader, it has come to our attention that Lou Dobbs wrote a scathing commentary for CNN.com, railing against news outlets across the country for covering immigrant marches and ignoring Law Day. He writes:

It was also an unfortunate and ironic choice on the part of the organizers of the demonstrations. May 1 in the United States is actually Law Day, a day first established by President Eisenhower in 1958 and ultimately codified into law in 1961 at the beginning of John F. Kennedy's administration. The purpose of Law Day is to give all Americans an opportunity to reflect on our legal heritage, and by statute, encourages “the cultivation of the respect for law that is so vital to the democratic way of life.”

I'll bet you know about the illegal alien amnesty marches, but I don't know of a single news organization, electronic or print that pointed out that May 1 is America's Law Day. The cable news networks gave almost wall-to-wall coverage to the illegal alien demonstrations, but they apparently couldn't find any American celebrating Law Day.

It’s tough, but I guess we have to come to terms with the fact that Lou Dobbs is not among our readership. (For those of you who missed it, we blogged on Law Day yesterday.) Still trying to decide if we should write him a letter to correct the mistake...
