Presidential candidate Barack Obama used a Florida fundraiser to attack conservative media personalities Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh for their militant stand on immigration policy.
Appearing Thursday at the Westin Diplomat near Fort Lauderdale, Obama lashed out at critics of illegal immigrants and migrant workers.
During his speech, Obama said, "A certain segment has basically been feeding a kind of xenophobia. There’s a reason why hate crimes against Hispanic people doubled last year.”
Who is behind the rise in hate crimes?
Obama left no doubt who he believes to be the culprits. “If you have people like Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh ginning things up, it’s not surprising that would happen,” he told the crowd.
According to press reports, Obama collected more than $500,000 from some 800 donors at the event.

maybe Obama should check the facts with Governments sending their poor here for us to care for. Americans are one of the most generous in the world but we can't support all the worlds poor. Maybe he should tell Mexico to quit helping the illegals get here and they should support their people with their wealth. There is no more room in the inn. What else will he say to get elected, Americans have stated over and over close the border for illegal's where ever they come from
This is proof we need to get rid of the first amendment allowing free speech and install Barak Hussien Obama as supreme leader.
