Anderson Cooper, "It's hard to talk when you're teabagging."
In response to David Gergens assertion that Republicans are still finding their voice. Just on AC360. Pretty funny.

but, Gergen disingenous statement sounds pathetic. "David Gergens assertion that Republicans are still finding their voice."

What do the fuckers except to find with their head up their ass?

being the first one to do the coverage using double-entendres, followed by Shuster and now Anderson. It is priceless!

25. Did you hear Keith tonight? He continued the fun.
Even Richard Wolffe asked him "one lump or two?"

Keith keeps a mug of tea on his desk during the show, and at one point tonight he picked it up and slowly dipped the bags in it...of which there were, of course, two.

Edited on Tue Apr-14-09 10:52 PM by Spazito
Am already laughing in anticipation, lol!

Edited to add: Just watched it and thought I was going to die laughing when Keith said "We know how O'Reilly 'crouches' on the issue" and then went on to say "We wanted to see whether teabagging also had the Fox news programs going off.....half-cocked"

THAT point I wasn't sure he knew the joke but then when he said, "It's hard to talk when you're teabagging," I couldn't believe it! He DOES get it-as did Ali Velchi who was smiling knowingly. :rofl:

Not only are these nitwits opposing lower taxes for themselves, not only are they giving money to an astroturf operation already well-funded by the usual right-wing foundations, but soon we'll be able to spot them on the street wearing shirts that proclaim, "PROUD TEABAGGER!"

You just can't make this shit up.

You should see the comments about this at DU...disgusting stuff.

Typical of their type, they take a normal everyday term, assign some disgusting meaning to it and then try to infer that we are the ones that are somehow degenerates and piss themselves laughing about it. Childish potty humor, at best.
