Y estamos de acuerdo.  ¡Váyase de aquí! (And we agree.  Get out of here!)

It seems that the "limp-minded, lily-livered lefties" have done it again.  For months, many on the left – including myself – and several Hispanic groups have been calling for the resignation of Lou Dobbs from the CNN Network. 

Mr. Dobbs, who joined the cable news network when it first began in 1980, has long been said to be the network's most outspoken anchor and is no stranger to controversy.  Well known for his anti-immigration rhetoric, which has been decried by many as xenophobic, Mr. Dobbs has also drawn a substantial amount of criticism for comments that he has made concerning the issue of race as well as comments made during the course of last year's presidential election concerning the citizenship of President Obama -- this was, of course, after the network disproved the rumors surrounding the apparent controversy.

Months ago, in light of such remarks, the president of CNN/U.S., Jonathan Klein, gave Mr. Dobbs a choice:  he could either voice his opinions on radio and conduct an objective newscast on television, or leave the network.  And it seems that Mr. Dobbs has finally chosen the latter.

Just last night, Mr. Dobbs announced to viewers that he was resigning from his post immediately. While seated before an image of the American flag, he said "some leaders in the media, politics and business have been urging me to go beyond my role here at CNN and to engage in constructive problem solving as well as to contribute positively to the great understanding of the issues of our day."

While Mr. Dobbs remained vague about his next steps saying that he was considering "a number of options and directions," some CNN insiders have speculated for months that he might move to another network, a possibility that gained further momentum in September when Mr. Dobbs met with Roger Ailes, the chairman of Fox News Channel.  Although a Fox representative on Wednesday denied any discussions with Lou Dobbs for Fox News or Fox Business, it would certainly seem like a good fit.
