"Before it hit theaters, The Lorax fended off lackluster reviews from critics and warnings from Lou Dobbs and other conservative commentators that the tree-hugging movie — a cautionary tale about the environmental dangers of profit-hungry developers — was trying to 'indoctrinate our children' in Obama-esque ideology. The Lorax's 'savvy marketing' certainly helped it smash box-office records. But Universal Studios should also consider sending flowers to right-wing commentators like Dobbs. 'Their fulminations were just so much free publicity, alerting the dads watching the Fox Business Network that their children had a movie to see this weekend.'"
