Oh this you gotta see. This MoveOn.org guy never had a chance as Anderson Cooper just lets him bury himself under the rhetoric of his partisan agenda and then exposes him for everyone to see. It was glorious:

Have grown some respect for Mr. Cooper. Reminded me of Tim Russert.

It seems I've seen Anderson do a few things like this, and it never ceases to amaze!

So, Cooper has a B.S. Detector and he knows how to use it. Please come to Fox news.

Has Anderson Cooper "seen the light" or is he kissing butt to ensure he has a job at....say.....FOX News?

Mind you, I think I would rather see him report on Fox than those Soros-flavoured radical leftards like Sally and Shamu that have infiltrated FOX these days.

The MoveOn guy looked like the deer in the headlights. He's got to be thinking "Did I end up on FoxNews by mistake???" I fully expected to see Rod Serling appear on screen announcing a new episode of the Twilight Zone.

Anderson Cooper: My job is to report facts. Wow, really? That would be a first, but Cooper did a really good job in smacking down the person representing MoveOn.

Wow! What's up with Anderson Cooper? He appears to have grown a soul and a conscience. Watch out Anderson, CNN is no better than NPR... remember what NPR did to Juan Williams. You might get in hot water by forcing out the truth and exposing these liars like this.

Good job BTW.

Well well well. I gotta give it to the Silver Fox on this one. GOOD JOB showing that wienerschnitzel up for the lying reprobate he is.

Loved it. Honest reporting something you don't see that much of on CNN. Refreshing. Way to start a new day.

That was a good one. Especially comming from CNN. In the long run it will amount to nothing more than another shiny object. Lets see if AC retracts any part of his excellent reportage this week. Don't want to get on the bad side of the lefty editors...next thing you know AC might get the boot and show up on FOX with his a show.

Videos like this make me imagine a world in which the media isn't carrying water for the Democrat party. I have to imagine it really hard though, because reality is the total opposite to that.

Cooper is a chameleon, according to the rating numbers he will be blue or red.

LOL, I actually enjoyed that. Good grief, Cooper asked him several times and the guest is just flat out hypocritical. It's not targeting women if Obama does it but it is if Republicans do it.

Three pointer for Cooper.

Most of the time I just see them attacking Republicans, but this was quite nice to see. Is CNN trying to grow up a little? It seems like they've been trying to be a little more perspective on things. That guy tried shouting over Cooper and he was caught with his pants down. Didn't look like he was expecting to be taken to the woodshed.

Guess he's trying to save his own hide! I bet the ladies on the View won't have him on anymore. :)

I would never call "The View" ladies, with the exception of Elizabeth. But, after this AC's Liberal standing will be questioned by the White House, unless of course it was on their orders. You know the "Chicago Way"...throw the liabilities under the bus for the election, then best buds again afterwards. LOL

I can picture AC right after the commercial break, "Sorry dude, you know, I have to ask some tough questions, did you see our ratings recently?"

Both glorious AND surprising. I was as surprised as the Move On. org guy.

Call 911, Cooper has clearly had a massive stroke.

Who is targeting women? I'd say its the party that is willing to negotiate with the Taliban and embraces fundamentalist Islamist, ie, Obama and the Democrats.

Ouch, how true that is...and that is a serious war on women.

I have always believed that polls are skewed to fit the pollsters agenda. The media, of course, denies this. But they can't deny the drying up of income due to failing ratings. Perhaps we are seeing a desperate swing by desperate media organizations to vainly attempt to get that all important dollar back into their coffers.

If this is the way the media is turning (God forbid they actually listen to the American people for a change), then perhaps the November election will indeed be the blowout that we all assume it has to be, given what Obama has done to this country.

In deference to the great MLK, I say:

I have a dream that someday the media will speak the truth and be unbiased.

I have a dream that someday our politicians will work for us and not themselves.

I have a dream that someday we may truly live in 'the home of the brave and the land of the free'.

And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!" - MLK

Thanks, Anderson. It's a start.

Advertisers must have seen the latest network ratings......

Must steal viewers from FOX, adjust common sense truth/partisan bias ratio to 25/75 from 5/95

Sorry, this is just liberals trying hard to get on the right side of an issue to gain credibility with the American people, right before the election. This belongs in the toilet, next to my brownie as it is flushed down to where it belongs.

Wow, that guy gets whiny when he's miffed!

I love it when he says, "We shouldn't be having this conversation!".

Didn't expect to get anything from CNN except softballs, did ya?

Darn those pesky facts!

Yeah, he wanted to have the conversation until he realized Cooper wasn't going to play ball.

Oh poor moveon, now they'll have to limit their sorry appearances to shows like Rachel Madatallthingsdecent and that hateful man, sorry can't remember his name, because those two shows love to entertain lies.

Kudos to Cooper, wonder if his job is in jeopardy?

Heeeeeyyyyy wait a minute!! There is a full moon- a SUPER moon last night. Ya think....?

But then again, I like John's theory ^^... Breibart's Ghost? hmmmm....

Oh yeah, (Dark Shadows theme music...). That must be it.

Maybe FOX will hire Anderson Cooper, they usually do hire people who commit random acts of journalism after their leftist media employer fires them.

Aye,you might have it !

What the heck? How weird. Anderson completely destroyed this guy. He looked like an idiot. But Anderson has never been fair to our side... does not compute! does not compute!!! I'm of a conspiratorial bent here...

Either one of two things just happened, either

A. i am dreaming

B. Breightart's Ghost has possessed Cooper

Only two explanations i can think off.

I think it's just that move-on is a liability during the election cycle for Obama. They didn't do him any favors in 2008.

The conspiracy theorists among us would say that TPTB must have decided they are going to push for Romney instead of Obama. And now the media are falling in line. Notice the unemployment number was explained more this time than usual.
