How Can CNN Reasonably Deny Anderson Cooper Knew Kerr Is A Gay Crusader
Keith Kerr, retired Colonel., U.S. Army; retired Brigadier General, California National Reserve, who submitted a YouTube question about gays in the military, is actually a member of Hillary Clinton's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transexual Americans For Hillary Steering Committee.
And Anderson Cooper is listed by "Out" Magazine as the second most powerful homosexual in the US, secondly only to David Geffen.

Of course, Hillary was not listed.

PS, Sources say CBS amd FNC desks in NYC efforting this BIG time.
Umm... Anderson Cooper is gay?
Geez... All this time I just thought he was one of those effeminate types.
It WILL be interesting to listen to Glenn Beck tomorrow am.
I doubt Anderson Cooper knew. Some CNN staff may have. Gay veterans don’t get scrutinized by CNN staff as much as you would check out his bona fides
>>Does anyone at CNN now really want to claim that CNN, specifically Cooper himself, did not know this gent was a big time Clinton gay?
PS, Sources say CBS amd FNC desks in NYC efforting this BIG time.<<
Are they claiming that? Are they claiming they vetted the questioners? If they claim they vetted this guy it seems like they would have turned up at least his Democratic affiliation.
Cooper gave the gay general more time to talk than he gave any of the Republicans.

There’s a reason they call it the Clinton News Network.
Of course the geniuses at GOP headquarters walk their guys like lambs to the slaughter right into that nest of leftist homosexuals at CNN.
Cooper was looking pretty guilty. He stuttered - said he knew the guy was an “activist”, but but but.... CNN sucks.
Imagine the Outrage if FOX had Fixed a “debate” like this?? Wish one of our Candidates would show an ounce of Backbone on this.
Pray for W and Our Troops
After umpteen million viewers see it - issue an ‘um, we’re sorry.’ The purpose is served and “f*** you very much, thank you for your input.”
Is that not a clear sign that the GOP is just completely lost in the woods today? What absolute fools, like this would help them? Good grief, makes me sick.
Look for Fred to address it in some fashion on his blog.
No kidding. Did you ever hear any of these guys say. “No thanks, that is a really stupid question, only meant to divide us. “
What kind of applause you think that line would get?
No guts, no leadership...
B-U-S-T-E-D......
The lavender mafia is caught dead to rights, so this guy supposedly “sent in” a Youtube video, claiming to be a Retired Homosexual Brigadier General asking about Don’t ask, Don’t Tell” and no one in the entire debate team knew that he was a part of Hilde’s team?
Or that he was Gays in the Military activist?
Or that he had appeared on the Cable outlets before?
Clinton Network News flubs again!
Clinton Inc really needs to work on their media arm...snicker..
CNN just can`t be trusted!!! Not to mention their post debate coverage had 5 dems to 1 Republican...for a republican debate.
Cooper should be fired over this -- the debate was more than a cheap stunt for Cooper to push his personal agenda. Who thinks a shill for the Republican party could lecture all the dems at a debate? And when the mic went out half way through the ramble, Cooper gives him more time. Shame on CNN.
No kidding, half of them should have been no thanks ask me a serious question. WWJD on the Death Penalty, talk about a cliche in search of an idea. Good Grief.

I saw that “undecided Republican voter”. She was about as Republican as John Edwards.
This kind of crap will go on over and over again and the MSM will give it scant attention for a day and let it die. If the shoe was on the republican foot, there would be hell to pay...
I really cannot handle the idea of Hillary being president, but if the GOP is going to be so spineless and weak, maybe we need to suffer through that to learn our collective lessons? Dang, damn, crap...
I don’t have a problem with anyone, anywhere, no matter how whacked out their views, asking a question for the sake of debate. I DO have a problem with politicians, who, for fear of losing power, adjust their answers and convicitions in order to please everybody.
Bet a sixpack that Beck will spin this to Cooper’s advantage. Beck is a lib at heart who has convinced himself that he’s conservative.
Let’s see if there is some outrage tomorrow after the facts are revealed. Those U-Rube debates have got to go. Who cares if we aren’t hip, those things are a joke.
Pray for W and Our Troops
I don’t dislike Beck. I’ve only listened to him a few times, but he strikes me as a little heavy on the compassion and light on the conservative.
I think Hunter did just that.
Great point, what a sham.
Your tagline, however, is one of the best on FR. Ever.

Another GOTCHA moment for Hillary.
Hell, I was waiting for Cooper to invite the guy up on stage!
He was a plant. It was orchestrated. Anderson set the whole thing up. And it stunk. Is Anderson gay??
We'd never hear the end of it.
Cooper needs to quit that half pursed lip look....way too Zoolander...passe’
CNN, NYT stories 2003 about Kerr:

Thanks or the kind words.
Check out my FR profile for some of my stories.

When they cut the debate off and went to those phony “Republicans” I turned it off.
“Beck is a lib at heart who has convinced himself that he’s conservative.”
I don’t necessarily buy into that but I will be listening with an open mind tomorrow.
I have a theory that when a Republican finally shows some backbone, the nomination and presidency are his for the taking. I am not counting on it anytime soon, however.
Breitbart TV has a clip from YouTube of Anderson Cooper’s disclaimer saying they weren’t aware of the General’s Clinton involvement.

I personally think that naming CNN the Communist News Network would also be appropriate.
And, Dr. Bennett more than held his own! He's great.
If the Pubbies had any cajones, they would each announce that they will no longer participate in any CNN sponsored event as they have demonstrated their bias during this campaign.
LOL - Quick - throw in an electric appliance!
‘Zactly. He’ll let his buddy, Anderson, off light.
He was on Kerry’s team in 04 too!
I enjoyed the idiot woman in the CNN “undecided Republican” focus group afterward that said if the GOP had a John Edwards she’d vote for him. The CNN infobabe damn near sh!t herself when she heard that.
We’ll see. I actually do hope that I’m wrong. Beck is popular and if he comes down hard on this crap it will count in the end.
