Anderson Cooper - Hard-nosed journalist?

Guckert/Gannon on Anderson Cooper 360 was a study in evasive hilarity. In short, the blame goes round and round, from JD/Jeff's POV, but somehow never falls at his feet. The White House approved his fake background. GOPUSA (the group that funded the fake news site he worked for) got him his credentials. Questions about the classified material he appears to have gotten access to garner responses about how "my opponents have tried to attack me with tactics heretofore unseen." His life has been "turned upside down and inside out" (would love to see how much he used to charge for those maneuvers). As if we should feel bad about outing this HotMilitaryStud. And I'm afraid Guckert/Gannon is fooling himself if he thinks anyone will give him protective cover using the standard rightwing reactionary shtick. Don't expect Ann Coulter to be singing his praises anytime soon. Regardless, his dissembling thanks to a surprisingly aggressive Anderson was fun to watch.
