CNN’s Erin Burnett found herself confronted with the idea of Rand Paul as a “rabid spider monkey,” after a guest on her show used the imagery to describe the Kentucky senator in a fight.
While discussing the feud with Gov. Chris Christie, Burnett’s guest, Hogan Gidley, a former communications director for Rick Santorum pointed out that Rand Paul refused to be bullied.
“What’s fascinating to me here is Rand Paul saying, bring it on and if you come at me, I’m going to come at you like a rabid spider monkey, and he hit him right in the face,” Gidley said with a straight face. “When the schoolyard bully comes at you – what do you do to back him down? You punch him in the nose, and Rand Paul punched him square in the nose.”
Burnett was surprised by the comment.
“I’m just loving Hogan’s rabid spider monkey comment,” she said. “Rand Paul – well no offense Rand Paul – I can see you as a rabid spider monkey.”
As the segment continued with her second guest, Burnett couldn’t shake the image out of her head.
“I just have an image of Chris Christie battling a rabid spider monkey and it’s just funny,” she laughed.

Can I imagine Obama as a rabid gibbon? Or would that be racis’?
I wouldn’t want to fight a spider monkey.
About the only thing I could imagine is him eating one if it was dipped in sugar.
An Alynski tactic.
Can you imagine the hue and outcry if a member of our “esteemed” media referred to Obama as a “rabid spider monkey’?
How about a gibbon turd?
Week, you can tell Hogan watched Talledaga Nights.
He may be “rabid” but he’s a lot friendlier than a feces-slinging, media monkey like Burnett.
“Can you imagine the hue and outcry if a member of our “esteemed” media referred to Obama as a “rabid spider monkey’?”
This is the new “esteemed” media.
And yes, I can see Obama as a rabid spider monkey....on choom.
A feud started by a rabid water buffalo.
I wish our side would fight the democrats like rabid spider monkeys, instead of the gutless, spineless wimps we are used to.
Christie is an obama suck up, yes man and he will carry blue states in republican primary because he is a real RINO.
“About the only thing I could imagine is him eating one if it was dipped in sugar.”
Or dipped in honey,roasted, fried, baked, barbecued on a stick or as steak tartar. Christie reminds me of the old Star Trek episode where there is a monstrous device gobbling up whole worlds. Where is James T. kirk when we need him?
I don’t think Christie’s team wants to encourage creative visual imagery.
THIS is what passes for professional journalism and ethics in the Obamanation.
A media whore attacks anyone who shouts defiance at The Obama, The Messiah, The Won.
Well, he is a rabid supporter of his own Amnesty Plan.
What does that make Chris Christie? LOL a rhino!
