Anderson Cooper/Tucker Carlson make snide remarks

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

Anyone who thinks those two are even unbiased is nuts. Anderson's comments about Carlson trolling Dean's headquarters for 'body piercing', then going on to trash Clark's comments about not taking money from lobbyists, saying Franken is in trouble for taking out the guy shouting yesterday--all said with superior, knowing smirks. If it weren't so close to polls closing, I'd turn off the set.

1. Tune in to Cspan at 8 PM

They start coverage from NH then.

3. Don't get CSPAN

or I'd watch it. Only get CNN, darn it!

2. Yes, BUT...

Cooper closed his segment with a great slam at bush...and his disdain for the little people. He quoted bush as saying he wasn't disinterested when O'Neill was explaining the budget, just "bored."

"Boring talk about a boring economy that effects the lives of millions of boring Americans," opines Cooper...and then he stares into the camera. It was actually quite a bush-bashing moment.

4. I thought the same thing

It's great to hear this kind of thing. I have noticed more of it in the last two weeks. I think the Bush drop in the polls, the hot Dem race and the fact that for the next ten months, they will need to get rating out of this election has been the cause of it.

5. Cooper's was more tongue in cheek

his comment was that Franken would be in trouble because "LaRouche supporters are an endangered species"

Carlson's comments were disgusting. While it's appropriate on a show like "Crossfire" it was totally inappropriate when he is being called on to report. He deserves a reprimand.
