Anderson Cooper: “IT’S HARD TO TALK WHEN YOU’RE TEABAGGING”
By Concerned Mother on April 15, 2009 at 10:45 PM in CNN
He says it at second 51 of this video:
Teabagging: You seem to know why all your friends in the media are using this term, Anderson. Do you mind elaborating? Do you have intimate knowledge of this sexual practice everyone the “progressive” press now seems to degrade as base homosexual activity? Do you too engage in gay bashing? Do you too think all Republicans are (gay) teabaggers? Do you know this firsthand? Or is it hard to be an objective reporter when one is teabagging with the President? I’m surprised you can talk.

("This crazy redhead is on to something. Her pink Rambler story alone is worth the price of the book," writes 
- “Richard Sale’s reportage on Washington, the CIA, the American armed forces, and foreign intrigue has created a perfect background for this account of the steady growth of President Clinton as a master of the game of nations.”--W. Patrick Lang, former head of Middle East Operations, DIA
"Anne C. Heller's stunning biography of Ayn Rand" uses a "plethora of newly unearthed research and fresh insight."
How low can these people go?
Or is it hard to be an objective reporter when one is teabagging the President? I’m surprised you can talk.
Very funny and accurate! What a jerk! I am soooo sick of CNN looping this meme. Somebody needs to reload the teleprompter. Puerile humor is to the MSM as intelligence is to Mensa.
Well Anderson wouldknow about teabagging!
I’m so sick of this behavior! Yuck!
“Or is it hard to be an objective reporter when one is teabagging the President?”
Fabulous line. Yep, that about sums it up.
IMPEACH, IMPEACH, IMPEACH!!!!!
It seems fair since they impeached Bill Clinton for a similar act!
So where is Anderson Cooper tonight???
Did he have to take a time out??
He had to catch the Cleveland Steamer with Rusty Trombone and Dirty Sanchez.
Good lord…Isn’t he gay? And he doesn’t get how wrong this crap is? No wonder CNN can’t get into the ratings race. They suck.
Yes, he’s a
big homoand Yes, he should know better!PLEASE DON’T USE THAT TERM.
he’s a whore first, gay second.
OF COURSE HE IS – everyone in the NYC gay community knows it. How pathetic that he would deign himself to participate in such behavior.
Demean, belittle, demonize. Stop all dissent with orders from the WH. I think I will send an email to CNN advising that I know what this term means in street talk and perhaps the FCC should investigate their use of obscene sexual slang. Perhaps their sponsors also need to know.
See the link on the David Schuster thread. It’ll take you right to the FCC complaint site.
Thanks. This is foul and needs to be pointed out. I do not expect anything to be done about it but name calling is trying to change the subject and shame everyone into silence. This needs to be turned around on them and spreading the word that this is a deliberate obscenity is the start.
CNN is a cable network and therefore not subject to FCC censorship.
I agree. The widespread mockery of this example of community activism is so hypocritical.
I’m so tired of the general smirking attitude that prevails anymore on CNN and MSNBC. They’ve lost me as a viewer.
OK, since you know, please tell me, because I honestly don’t know what this comment means by Anderson Cooper.
Go to Urban Dictionary and type in “tea bagging” . You’ll get the picture.
School report.
My 20 year old son says political talks has all but stopped on campus. His friends no longer complain when he turn on Fox News. My 18 year old daughter was not old enough to vote last fall. She did not like McCain. She now hates the language she hears from the left. She wants a third choice.
I think these kids are not, in their nature, mean. And I think they are getting turned off by the so-called grownups acting mean and childish. These kids are too close to the early age when that kind of language (that which we have heard today from the left bank) only came from spitting idiots.
It may be possible that the college crowd, that followed the soft and fuzzy unity pony in 2008, won’t be as easy to move in 2010 or 12, especially if the new college entrants begin to associate democrats with nasty.
JMHO.
I think the s after talk (in first par) belongs after the turn on second line. Yo. The English is my tang, bro!
Good to hear. I just was so disgusted by talk coming out of the mouth of the lefties. And they didn’t care if you were a friend for years, if you questioned Weary Barry, it was all out personal assault and in public.
As the posters we made said, their own conduct helped show why they were choosing Obama and I didn’t want to live in a country with their nasty, mean, condescending, selfish society.

And this coming from …oops…this out of the mouth one one who no doubt knows FIRST … hand.
But it’s a picture I really wish he didn’t make me think about. YUK So, is it hard to talk when you are bagging…or when you’re the bagee?
Anderson Cooper needs to be fired.
The reporter covering the Chicago rally must have gotten her journalism degree from the Matchbook Cover School of Journalism the entrance exam consists of drawing a pirate.
Andersen Cooper? How much Time-Warner-CNN stock does the estate of Gloria Vanderbilt own?
Or is it hard to be an objective reporter when one is teabagging the President? I’m surprised you can talk.
The teabagger can talk just fine. The teabagee, on the other hand . . .
Just got home and in reviewing the day I just heard Shuster refer to Washington prostitute patron David Vider. To be fair and balanced one should thus say the Obamas received their furry gift from Massachusetts Chappaquiddick murder Edward Kennedy.
LOL! Very good point!
Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment.
I think AC knows from personal experience ALL about teabagging.

It’s cable, that’s how MSNBC got away with it.
But…are there any people left that think they have to tell the truth or aren’t freaks with their own agenda trying to fool the public?
What went on today is as much a cultural war as it is a reaction to all the bailouts, AIG, and so on.. The poetic teleprompter escapades of 0bama appeals to the extreme left-wing (they will keep rationalizing their choice) but people in the middle are scratching their heads now. They did that then in GE too but voted for him anyway because of no good alternative. I think this movement is real and will grow. It comprises of Republicans, independents and the new Dem entrants, the 0bama disbelievers from the Democratic Primary, at least 18 million of them. All three will want a change and certainly no second term for 0bama. If CNN, MSNBC, and other smug bastards act the way they are acting now, the death will come faster. This is a no confidence motion from voters barely into 3 months of this administration. Not good and the media is making it worse.
pm I want to talk to you about cultural war. But later. You are on to something.
You’ve made many good points.
The smirking on CNN and MSNBC is akin to whistling past the graveyard. Something’s happening, maybe the beginning of an even bigger movement, and they obviously didn’t want to cover it objectively.
The administration is trying to nip dissent in the bud because it scares the crap out of them. Congressional elections are next year and candidates do not want to vote for policies which will set off riots in the parking lot of their offices. If Congress has to choose between their job and a president, the prez will loose and they know it. I think it grew past the “bud” stage today.
They better be scared. From what I saw today people want Pelosi, Reid and all the other scum in congress lynched.
Lynching is so passe. Better we send them to live in Afghanistan. They have friends there.
You’re so right Harp. Which reminds me of the best sign of the Tea Party Day…
Bring Home The Troops – Send In The Democrats
Since lots of people here are still Democrats, I suppose it should be “Send In The Progressives” LMAO.
That would be so appropriate for Queen Nancy. It would be perfect for her to be boarded up in a bedroom and unable to leave the house at all without her burqa on.
Maybe even more friends in Gitmo.
As more of us believe that our taxes actually will rise, or double as Walker in my first link below claims, more taxpayers, especially from the middle class, will become angry and join the protests, I believe. I also believe that the people are ahead of the jeering, rude media on the issues of corporate bail-outs and a runaway budget *in these times*. In my reading, I came across that despised word of Americans living or traveling in Europe, VAT, as “inevitable”, and suggested as a new revenue source to fund 0’s healthcare plan–ugggg!
1. “Why your taxes could double”
http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/04/15/walker.tax.debt/index.html
2. VAT talk
http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/obamas-tax-reckoning-2009-04-14.html
you know, they all thought is was ok when Obama was giving the finger, so do you doubt they like to turn tv to this level of scum?
And poor Anderson, he felt the need to have to repeat it a 2nd time. He didn’t get the rise he was expecting.
Cnn has been hurting and realized they have turned off indes and Conservatives, let alone Republicans so they are trying to feed read meat to Democrats which are probablky the only ones left they can market to.
And ewww, they feel the Democrats like to hear this stuff, huh? What does THAT say about them?
Man is the loony left digging their own grave with two shovels. These elitist pieces of crap keep forgetting that heart and soul of America is good, decent, kind and compassionate hard working people. People who find the Anderson Coopers, Rachel ManCows, and David Shusters of the world repugnant and illiterate.
Cooper is about the last man who should be using this term. I agree with I’mfedup.
The arrogant media is adding gasoline to the fire.

Forgive me Paul McCartney, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifobQSP-b7E ) for I had to sin against the Beatles and the masses to make a point. Bad form is bad form. Thank you for letting me use your framework to try to help us make a dull point.
When I created the GoverNuts we had a rule. Do not do anything that would hurt the politicians’ parents or children. These left bank lunatics just insulted the children of every kid in America who has parents that decided to exercise their right to voice an opinion that is contrary to the Ori’s doctrine. I honestly think that the right and the left want people to join their union just to build their unions. Well. Here is my card. Check it out. I will not join. I have been registered to vote as an independent for over ** years and now I will start acting like you.
OK. Politicians. What do you have for me? I make more than most. I make less than many. I will not see a penny of your so-called transfer of wealth.
Oh. I am sorry. I was just singing in the choir. The decision makers don’t go to our church, so they did not hear me say:
I want to give you my funny papers.
Great article about the “thousands” that protested through out New Mexico. They didn’t even report on Santa Fe, probably because it was later in the day.

OMFG…Another great Tea Party sign…LMAO…
Dude, Where’s My Country?
lol
that IS a great sign
Considering Cooper has Dyslexia, it explains his inability to have his mouth work in conjunction with his brain.
Dear Anderson Cooper
God knows you’re a snooper
But a teabagger too?
We all knew that of you!!!!
Quit phobing your brothers
Your sisters and lovers
Piss us and we’ll out you
you arrogant lout you.
No one cares if you teabag
No one cares if your tea sags
But we want hold your cover
If you trash us our brother.
Now stop the queer bashing
the dyke and fag trashing
or we’ll find all the fellers
and soon they’ll be tellers.
Now This isn’t a threat boy,
It’s a promise, you bet boy,
And you know we can do it
Cause all queers have been through it.
The End

Oh, that’s wonderful! Best comment among a host of good ones.
awwww come on…. Andy’s ok.
he is probably very restrained from
saying what he really wants to. LOL
Gawd..
this thread has spun out of control…and regressed into debauchery….
however…here’s my 2 cents worth…any reference made to sex and the Big Cheese makes me want to give it up …forever…
but the boys are sure getting a lot of mileage out of this….:)
All this “teabagging” business… an all-time low in TV news. I have witnessed the death of wit. (Not to mention the death of straight reporting.)
UBM I finally agree with you. Thanks for the unbiased comment.
It’s nice to witness the rare occasion that you let out your atrophied objective side out for some fresh air. “Teabagging” isn’t the all-time low for TV news however, their endorsement of 0bama has that distinction.
Ah, you rascal…you’ve attained another milestone on your journey to Wisdom!
I raise a can of Store brand diet cola to you!

Teabagging? Talk about not family friendly. What do you say if your under aged kid or grandkid asks you what is “teabagging”?
But that doesn’t bother the reporters at CNN.
Considering Anderson Cooper’s persuasion, this is like an immature child having a “tee hee” moment. How embarrassing that he doesn’t seem to see himself.
Whatever happened to “starve the beast” and ” deficits don’t matter”?Clinton was the only president to offer a balanced budget in 30 years and the Right chooses NOW to protest?NOW? When NO one’s taxes have increased and 90 percent of the protesters are currently seeing their taxes lowered. I am watching stances change literally overnight and people wonder why the Tea Party “movement” is being laughed at.
“Deficits don’t matter”
- Dick Cheney echoing Republican mantra for the last 30 year.
Although I did not attend any “tea parties”, I don’t appreciate having my kids and grandkids saddled with debt, even if I get enough extra money in my paycheck for a pizza or two. Is expecting your president and other elected officials to make sound fiscal decisions asking too much? I spend within my means personally, and I expect the same of my government.
BTW, I’m a Democrat (or at least I had been for 30 years or so).
OMG, me too; after 30 years of being a Democrat, I became an Independent and will NEVER go back (or belong to any party.)
One more time. This isn’t just the Right. It is also Democrats, Independents, and Republicans who recognize B. Clinton’s good management and GWB’s out of control spending too.
Funny thing so-called liberals/progressives didn’t want another Clinton in charge. Just think. I doubt H. Clinton would throw trillions of dollars at the problem.
This is not a Right Wing Protest. It crosses party lines, racial lines, and all other kind of lines.
Get a clue.
Jaime, Clinton did not produce a balanced budget, a Republican controlled congress did.
Second, this is not a debate about Republicans or Democrats. This is about every single one of them that has upheld overspending. They are ALL guilty. I did not vote for Bush, did not like him, Cheney or Rumsfield.
You must not have very high expectations if you think $7 or $8 a week is a tax cut. When it is coupled with tax increases in various forms such as cigarette, liquor, gas tax increases, increases in groceries, utilities from Cap and Trade etc, it is a net loss for Americans.
All I hear from Obama supporters is we got a tax cut-ooh, watch out, what am I going to spend that $8 on every week! Please, that is an insult to intelligent people.
You can’t spend trillions and not raise taxes-it’s basic math. $10 minus $2 trillion = DEFICIT. It wasn’t ok for Bush and not ok for Obama. If there had been a protest against this, I would have attended when Bush was in office, but there weren’t any near my home.
So can the “they did it so we can do it” crap.
Jaime, the only people laughing at the tea party
movement are those who feel threatened by it.
you just hide and watch, middle america is waking
up and even ACORN can’t stop it.
Bush and the repubs spent like money grows on trees. Now, Obama and the dems are doing the same. Two wrongs don’t make a right. Yes, people are getting a lousy $400 tax reduction THIS year, but the bill on this deficit will come due pretty quickly.
How will this debt be retired? Who do you think is going to pay for this? If the goverment confiscated every last penny from the “wealthy”, it would not even be enough to make the interest payments on our national debt.
The Federal Government HAS NO INCOME, NO ASSETS-NOTHING TO PRODUCE INCOME! Our money, taken from us by fiat, pays for everything. Get it?
Best start learning Chinese, Jaime, cause you, your children and, grand children will be paying the interest on Obama’s 9 Trillion (plus) deficit.
The media wishes to continue the game of us vs them. The Democrats against the Republicans. But this protest was from all Americans who are shocked at the give-away to the Corporate world with no questions asked. Its Goldman Sachs running the train. They have infiltrated our government through various means and we get to watch as they squander our treasure. The media has their marching orders and have become all too obvious. They want to stick to puppy dog stories and expect us all to go “Ah, how sweet”. But most of us are really pissed off.
You got that right. Also, IMO, that’s part of the control of the American people. It’s all in the cycle; Republican Control, Democrat control, Republican control…etc, etc, etc. In the meantime, the American people lose. Let’s face it, both parties cater to the lobbyists and both parties will never permit the rise of any third party.

You are right on the mark, Glenn!
The corporatists have taken over, and this country is going down hill faster than you can say “tea party.”
What scares me, is the fact that the pro-Obama media has reach the point of not only attacking politicians and talk radio that does not agree with this administration, but they also have no problem attacking and mocking Americans who dissent through free speech.
BTW, if you think Anderson Cooper is bad, you ought to hear Rachel Maddow.
Hi everyone! Have to delurk to show another example of disgraceful CNN reporting, from HLN. Susan Roesgen reporting all day from Chicago was combative and downright nasty to everyone she talked to.
ONE example here:

D’oh… should have scrolled down further to the post, should have figured you guys caught this one.
since the msm no longer really broadcasts news just opinions that do not address issues and Americans now have to carefully spend their money why not boycott the sponsors of these no news shows?
As the old saying goes ” Money talks bullsh-t walks”
When their bottomline is hurt maybe just maybe the msm will become honest and relevant and remember what their job really is.
They may have to have a change in employees because it has been so long since many did their job they forgot how to do it and some employees never did understand what their real job was.

What is the tone of liberal discourse these days?
Sarcasm.
Cheapshots.
Lies.
Personal insults.
Smartass college humor.
Smirking put-downs.
Gee, who does all that remind us of?
The fish stinks from the head…It’s Obama tactics just like we saw starting in the primary. He’s toxic. Period.
If this was coming from Howard Stern it probably would be funny, but this is what has become of the mainstream media. They’ve dropped to the level of the Howard Stern show.
Seriously, this is way more offensive than Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction. Where’s the outrage to the FCC? Funny, Howard Stern was fined $500K for explaining what a “bumpkin” is on a 2001 show yet now talking heads supposedly broadcasting “respectible” news and opinions openly use the term teabagging to describe protestors who make their Obama look bad.
Pathetic.
Boogaloo…Most of us complained to the FCC already. And I bet other people not on this blog did too. Those freaks need to GO. Journalism? ROFLMAO.
Hey Folks,
If there is any doubt that Obama hates Christians when he goes to Georgetown U and makes them cover Jesus so that the image cannot be seen.
Obama has no balls and obviously is placating to his godless wimpy followers who want to destroy traditional values in this country
Talk about a backlash…I have talked to several Obots in my church this morning and all of them are terrified that this could be happening.
Obama can cover Jesus after he has risen but does a full frontal bow to his Muslim overlords…
http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/Jesus-Missing-From-Obamas-Georgetown-Speech.html
Maybe I’m just getting rummy, but this whole 0bama nightmare has become Kafkaesque. He covered up Jesus at Georgetown U.????? This is too wierd to assimilate.
I no longer feel like Cassandra though, the tea-parties were much needed validation that millions now realize the scope of the dissaster that 0bama is crafting.
My wife who voted for McCain like myself ruined many of her relationships warning about what Obama represents.
Since the election she has been trying to give Obama a chance….
However,after what Obama did to Jesus she is just hopping mad and just told me that this act is the last straw…Yeah!!! Peace at last.
Andrew…I missed you at the Tea party
Here are some pics

ALL: please go to the YouTube video site (sign in) and enter a comment. There are tons of Obots applauding AC and writing “too bad gays re offended”.
Truly hideous comments.
Enter yours and tell it like it is!!
Here’s some more real ugliness…John Ziegler, who made the film “How Obama Got Elected” showed up at USC for the ridiculous Katie Couric/Walter Cronkite Award and was cuffed and manhandled. Good God what is up with these people?
http://www.breitbart.tv/?p=320303
Even more worth firing or at least FCC sanctions: Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, MSNBC, Anderson Cooper, David Gergen and CNN.
The blatant discussions and snickering about tea-bagging was vile in the extreme and should result in complaints to the FCC. All of these folks were snickering on their respective networks (who complicitly allowed it to go on) as if people in their pittance of an audience would not understand the in-joke. Well, we understand. Olbermann took it to the depth of a sewer last night by referencing tea-bagging, franks and beans, taint and several more vile double entendres of contempt and derision, going on and on. He should be fired. Maddow has been doing the same thing. Cooper said something about it being difficult for tea-baggers to talk with their mouths full and Gergen sniggered like a school boy at Cooper’s comments. What is wrong with these people? They should be sanctioned, fined and fired in no particular order.
In all this discussion about “right-wing extremists” at tea parties being such a danger, no one seems to have brought up the left-wing extremist students who interrupted Tom Tancredo (or was it Tidisco?) a couple days ago during his speech, and threw rocks and bricks at him, egged on by their professors in the room! These people are much more dangerous than most conservatives ever thought of being! They hold the record as the bombers and police-killers and beaters of old ladies on street corners who disagree with them! And now we’ve put one of their ilk as a high-level advisor to the Defense department in the Pentagon!
It’s just disgusting.
