Against my better judgement, I can't help but notice that the photo of Mr. Cooper in the OP has him sitting on a "manhole." :haha:

I can only imagine him screaming with each shot, "But I'm a JOURNALIST, I'm here to HELP you!"
Imagining/hoping/praying that would change his reality.

Wonder what would happen if some of the more fundamentalist types in the crowd found out about his (alleged) "orientation"? Buggery is a capital offense in some middle eastern countries.

I don't care about his sexuality, but I am glad that someone finally knocked him a good one. As someone said before, he is not a journalist, he is an icon, and he ties with Beck at being what's wrong with American Journalism.

Anderson Hays Cooper (born June 3, 1967) is an Emmy Award-winning journalist, author, television personality, and, even though he isn’t really all that old, a total silver fox. Generally accepted to be gay—though still officially reporting live from the closet—he is also a dick.

Notwithstanding my previous jibe at Mr. cooper's expense (it just seemed to good to pass up), I gotta give the guy some props for doing what he's doing.

If I possessed Anderson Cooper's wherewithal (he is, after all, the son of Gloria Vanderbilt, as in the Cornelius Vanderbilt), I sure as shit wouldn't be dodging bricks in Cairo.

The prophet's son died on Thursday. Allah would never knowingly let that happen. Therefore Allah just looked the other way. Therefore banging a man in the ass on Thursday is not a sin like it would be otherwise because Allah gives evil a pass on Thursday

Cooper is a commentator himself, he just wont admit it. Thus, missing my point... ;)

All commentators these days consider themselves, historians, journalists, entertainers, public figures, policy makers, and the like. Really they are all just a bunch of overpaid talking heads, and "entertainer" is the closest thing any of them can come close to claiming.

I think before Cooper is allowed back in the States or near any high level Gov't official he should have a body cavity search. You never know they might have put a "charger" filled with explosive up his anal orifice. He could be packing a large quantity given his experience.

Thank you for making that point it is very valid.

As for the images of the protesters posted above: Having been in large brawls before, I would be making an improvised helmet out of anything I could. I don't think it's fair to laugh while sitting in the lap of luxury about someone using something on hand to protect their head. How much did that helmet that kid is wearing in the first photo has cost his daddy?

Who the **** cares. What has he done? Go on some exotic vacations because he comes from old money? I got a Marine friend that was sent home because he MRAP was blown to shit by an IED. A couple of months later, he went back and got sent home again because an RPG blew him off his feet. Guess what, he wants to go back again.

That's a man who has been places and really put his ass on the line to make a difference in the world.

**** Anderson Cooper and his mother's money. He hasn't done shit.
