Anderson Cooper: Tea-Bagging is a Mouthful
Over the last several days, Republicans have been engaging in anti-tax tea-bagging parties, meant to demonstrate their displeasure with Barack Obama daring to do away with George W. Bush's tax code.
We won't mock the lunacy of these gatherings. Instead, we'll focus on the fodder such "tea-bagging" shindigs have provided for late-night talk show hosts and news anchors.
Anderson Cooper joined the fun on Tuesday.
At the end of a conversation with David Gergen, the director of the Center for Public Leadership, the political operative said the Republican party is in a position of weakness and is "'searching for their voice."
How could Cooper ignore such a set-up? He replied: "It's hard to talk when you're tea-bagging."

Get over it. A young child does not know what the hell Teabagging is. And for the record, Cable networks are not like regular Tv networks. Since it's a subscription tv and paid for, most of the time there is sex talk and violence. If you don't want your child to hear "teabagging" then don't have them in front of the TV with you, dumb ass. Geez, people are becoming such prudes. He did not use the F word, dear. He said teabagging, which up until recently, I had no idea that it meant something sexual in slang talk. America is full of prudes. i am moving to Europe soon, as they are less uptight about the human body and sex.

Anderson Cooper is CNN's Senior Teabagging Correspondent. I will not be watching your network again. I was offended to hear that language as my young daughter sat next to me. I will also be boycotting as many sponsors of CNNs as I can find.I also made a FCC complaint about your pornographic, unprofessional language.
