Anderson Cooper is all out of fucks...

[MustBeTheBooz]

Just finished watching Anderson Cooper interview Rod Blagojevich on CNN. Anderson was not having any of RB’s nonsense and actually said (paraphrasing), “I’m happy for your family that you are out of prison, but I’m not buying your bullshit.”

My laughing at the exchange startled the wife and the pets, so I had to post. If you didn’t see it, I’m sure there will be links at some point.

1. Naw, we saw it too

I couldn’t believe I heard Anderson call bullshit but that’s exactly what he did.

2. saw that too!

the bullshit word was mentioned a couple of times.

I like that anderson asked him why he didn't look at clemency for thousands when he was government and it's the same old "Well When It Happened to MEEEEEEEEEEEE" then he got it. and now he's talking about "fake" this and that. A true trumper now.

5. Yep...

Thanks, Icy! That’s what I saw. And, when you watched AC’s facial expressions throughout the interview, you knew he’d done his homework. He seemed irritated to call RB out so often and thoroughly, I surmise, because he couldn’t believe Blago was reaching and failing so hard!

12. Sounds like conservative thinking to me.

I don't give a shit about what happened to those other guys but damn! I got sent to jail for committing a crime, the government is evil.

What a dick head!

3. I enjoyed it immensely.

4. Cooper called bulshit and then lectured Blago for 10 minutes.

When he was done, there was dead silence. What can you say after being told off like that?

9. Have always loved Anderson....BUT....he dropped a little in my book

when he hung his good friend Kathy Griffin out to dry. So.......still really like him, it’s just not love anymore.

[MustBeTheBooz]

13. Agreed...(nt)

[renate]

15. Wouldn't that have been CNN's decision and not his?

I’m just asking—I have no idea. I hope it wasn’t purely his decision.

[AlexSFCA]

20. agree

Kathy is amazing and did nothing wrong. I bet if she did that photoshoot today no one would even notice. It was all about timing. She is still blacklisted from all network tv stations.

14. He did a great job

16. Understanding the flaws in the justice system, Blagojevich is still a scummy bastard.

I am not naive about problems within the justice system. You need look no further than Don Siegelman in Alabama. Blogojevich is no Siegelman. He tried to sell a damn Senate seat and shook down a bunch of people for campaign contributions. In Siegelman's case, both Democrats AND Republicans had serious problems with the prosecution. In Blagojevich's case both Republicans AND Democrats knew the bastard was dirty.

17. that was good stuff

18. Dear Anderson Cooper,

[ibegurpard]

19. there needs to be a lot more of this

21. A Real Man

Hooray for Anderson Cooper!!! A real man that will stand up to ignorance. Something our Congressmen refuse to do.

[Tink41]

22. It's how business is done.

Having been born in Chicago, he really didn't do anything so shocking. It's standard procedure. Everyone knows it. Some speculate Blago had a little tiff at a family gathering and pissed off the father in law. The timing was impeccable

[Shaddox]

23. Yes. For fucksakes. Finally, some truth. Thank you, Anderson.

[live love laugh]

24. Seems like all eyes are on Blago not a peep about the

others pardoned—Republicans—or a comparison of their crimes.

[Just_Vote_Dem]

26. Yep

Like to see him do that to a Repub...bet I'd have a long wait
