You're beautiful but you have to be honest': GOP rep tangles with CNN anchor
October 03, 2013
Here's a weird one.
Todd Rokita (R-Ind.) and CNN anchor Carol Costello got into it Wednesday morning over the best way for Congress to address issues with "Obamacare" and the government budget.
Costello argued that the two should be dealt with separately as they are unrelated. Rokita disagreed.
"You're part of the problem," Rokita said at the end of the segment. "The media's part of the problem."
"Oh come, on," Costello responded. "That's so easy. That's so easy."
Then it got a awkward.
"Carol," Rokita said, "You're beautiful but you have to be honest as well."
Costello: "Okay. I think we should leave it here."
