CNN’s Anderson Cooper Hammers Democrat Alan Grayson over Attack Ads – Video 10/8/10

Here is video of Florida Democrat Rep. Alan Grayson being hammered by CNN’s Anderson Cooper over his pathetic ad against his GOP opponent Dan Webster in which Grayson called him, “Taliban Dan.”

Grayson tried to defend the essential content of the ad, while admitting they have now allowed the ad to die. But Anderson Cooper was relentless in calling Grayson out for the way he cut what Webster said in order to make it say something entirely opposite what he was actually saying.

Cooper also called Grayson out for another ad in which he attacks Webster for not serving in Vietnam. Cooper asked Grayson if he had served in the military, which he never answered. Cooper asked him why he would run that ad, leaving the impression he had served in the military when Webster did not. Grayson came back at Cooper with, “Did the ad say that?” When Cooper told Grayson the ad leaves the clear implication that Grayson served and Webster did not, Grayson told Cooper, “I think you are looking for reasons to attack me.”

You know you are on the far, extreme-Left when you believe CNN and Anderson Cooper are looking for reasons to attack you, even though you are a Democrat!!!

Kudos to Anderson Cooper for this interview.
