The former CNN anchor calls a sex tape he made several years ago "the biggest mistake of my life."
"I swear to all of you reading this right now, when I made that tape I must've been completely drunk on some crazy illegal Mexican hoo-ha, high on some premium Colombian flake, or totally overstimulated by the thought that I might get shot at any minute by dangerous illegal aliens who have it in for me and know where I live, and now I fear for my life every single day because I am just one Terribly Important Person who says Dangerously Important Things," the controversial and widely disliked news anchor did not announce, in a bizarre, rambling letter on his personal blog, DobbsKnobs.com, which does not actually exist, but should.
"I would never make such an immoral thing today. I mean, who has the time? And the appropriate farm animals?"
Oddly echoing semi-famous Christian homophobe/former Miss California Carrie Prejean's words when she herself recently confessed to making a touching sex tape for a boyfriend, a tape allegedly involving nine stuffed pink bunnies, a frozen banana, and Pat Benatar's "Love is a Battlefield," Dobbs went on to add, "[The tape] was for private use, meant only for the eyes of my personal armada of Mexican chambermaids, Chinese manservants, Indian website coders and the two or three Czech bodybuilders I keep around just so I can watch them lift heavy things and glisten in the sun.
"But does that justify what I did? No it does not. I am ashamed," he did not add, sweatily.
"Except for the thing with the frozen enchilada and the monkey. That was pretty awesome. Who knew monkeys were so dexterous? Skip to 14.33 if you want to see it. Damn, was I ever hammered! Woo!"

Mark Potok: Earth to Lou: It Could Have Been Different
It didn't have to end this way for Lou Dobbs. He could have been a contender. But Dobbs, a supremely self-confident man who often mentions his Harvard education in private conversation, just wouldn't listen.

I love you, Mark.
It's just that simple!
SF is a better place with you in it.
I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Thank you for THAT image in my head!
The very thought of a Lou Dobbs' 'xes tape' of ANY kind hurts my mind's eye. I refuse to imagine any of this as it is quite disturbing and revolting.
Don't think about a white elephant.
Mark, I'm really glad you didn't write it as straight out satire, because Righties everywhere would have believed it to be true, and by now Lou would have cult- and rock-star status. (Whew.)
Nothing, ever, instilled terror as deep into my soul as completely and thoroughly as this did…could easily be a sequel of “The Ring” franchise… I can see the contorted faces of the “Lou Dobbs Sex Tape” victims now, Saints Preserve Me…
I have one of the very few copies of that Dobbs tape. I thought little of it until a few minutes before the end when Sarah Palin appeared.
A worthy end for an unworthy adversary!
Mark, you rock. Such a great belly laugh which I desperately needed!
