Lou Dobbs Employs Illegal Aliens (Sort of)

On MSNBC's Countdown Tuesday evening, Keith Olbermann made a shocking accusation:

CNN's Lou Dobbs, whose daughters are involved in the "upper-class, super-expensive, elitist world of horses and hurdles," he said, "spends his money indirectly employing hundreds of the very people he rails against each night."

His proof? According to Vicky Moon's book, A Sunday Horse: Inside The Grand Prix Show Jumping Circuit, Dobbs' two daughters are serious horse enthusiasts, knee-deep in an industry that relies heavily on illegal workers. "This melting pot of international equine aficionados," she writes, "does not include the countless numbers of illegal Spanish-speaking immigrants who shovel the 40 tons of poop a day."

So, is there a connection? Is Lou Dobbs in fact a two-faced hypocrite? Have the terrorists won? Decide for yourself. WARNING: The following video contains multiple references to "poop."
