New Video Shows Morgan‘s ’Borderline Creepy‘ Questions Before O’Donnell’s CNN Walk-Off

Yesterday, Blaze showed you the testy exchange between CNN host Piers Morgan and former Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell that occurred last night. That clip appeared to show a flustered O’Donnell refusing to give an answer to a straightforward gay marriage question, and then storm off the set, while a smug Piers Morgan pretended to have no idea why she was upset.
Well, that’s not the whole story.
What we’re not finding out is that in the lead-up to that segment, Morgan peppered O’Donnell with questions about sexuality such as “do you still think masturbation is wrong?” O’Donnell tried to take that comment in stride and explained her views on sexuality as a younger activist, but Morgan would not let up.
Morgan then asked her “are you still a supporter of total abstinence?” O’Donnell responded with “Are you the pro-masturbation talk show host?” This attempt at humor and deflection only egged Morgan on.
At that point, O’Donnell tried to change the subject to topics in her book, and Morgan sneeringly inquired “have you committed the sin of lust in your heart?”
We now have the video from CNN showing the awkward exchange:
“He had a decidedly inappropriate line of questions leading up to that, that many people – bloggers, are saying was just border-line creepy,” O’Donnell told WTTG-TV Thursday morning.
“And, I’m trying to move away from it, you know, I’m not a 20-year-old on MTV right now, so let’s get back to the political issues that I lay out in the book – and he wouldn’t let up,” she added. “I was not there to talk about sex – and he would not stop trying to talk about sex.”
WTTG also gave O’Donnell a chance to discuss her book and the thoughts she wants to share with America, instead of asking about sex and “lust.” You can watch below:

Posted on August 18, 2011 at 2:15pmThe left is scared of right leaning women for the same reason they are scared of right leaning blacks. The left has successfully sold a lie to many women and many blacks that Republicans are Sexist and Racists. When ever a women or a black successfully get elected in the Republican party it puts a serious dent in this lie that the left has created.

Posted on August 18, 2011 at 3:28pmTo answer your question, they aren’t afraid of Conservative women, they are afraid of the THREAT that all convservatives pose to the liberal ideology. You gotta understand that it isn’t the Conservatives who enacted all of these liberal progressive policies in place in our school systems, government, media, it is the liberals and their unabashedly biased agenda. Conservatives preach personal responsibility, while liberal progressives preach “it‘s always someone else’s fault. ” Conservatives teach abstinence and plan having children according to your budget and within your means, liberal progressives subsidize irresponsible adults who have many children they can’t support, all for votes. Conservatives teach that if you give a man incentive to be his own man and expand his business or idea that he will contribute to society by hiring people or providing a service. LIberal progressives teach that if you were born into a poor family, there is no hope for you because the rich people hoard all of the money and the poor get poorer while the rich get richer. The left hates ALL Conservatives because they directly interfere with their plans for power over the people. Or in their words “power over the MASSES.”

Posted on August 18, 2011 at 4:10pmOh I don’t know perhaps because some of the issues were how she got herself on TV and attention the first time as the Pro Christian anti-sex guru or perhaps because she discusses some of them in the book. Either way everyone writes their own story and should be prepared to take questions about it. As far as her having a clue about current issues facing the country, and real knowledge or understanding of the Constitution or any remote notion about what actions to take is preposterous.

I guess they feel betrayed by women who are conservative, and therefore have the right to treat them like crap. I have to look up how many Democrats actually voted for women’s suffrage, or the right to vote. I‘ll bet it wasn’t many.

Posted on August 18, 2011 at 5:16pmWhy should he ask her serious questions; she’s not a serious person. She’s not running for anything, she’s hawking her book, in which she talks about the masturbation issue as well as the witchcraft issue. So he asked her questions about them. Big deal. I’ve heard the audio of her other interviews where she goes on and on and on about the masturbation issue. Do I really care about her opinion on this? Hell no. But, you try to sell your book on CNN, and you talk about such things in it and are famous for the two issues, what do you expect a t.v. interviewer to ask you about?

She’s another conservative white woman that the media can and will exploit. Where is NOW? were is code stink (pink)? this line of questioning is sexist.

If ONLY candidate Obama had been questioned as voraciously about the topics in his books (and radical statements he made in his past), maybe the country wouldn‘t be in quite the bad state we’re in since he took office. But this was an asinine and meaningless interview..What was the point of those loaded questions? Oh right, he was trying to make her look uptight and weird, but it mostly made him look rude and creepy. She was very articulate when she was allowed to speak freely about her book; she came across as an intelligent, thoughtful conservative woman.
