I’d rather he keep using that versus his birth name (Piers Stefan O’Meara).

Now we know that he’s so weak, a loud cough will scare him to death.

{sigh}

No, it was the one putting .223 ammo in all the bodies for the coroner to find. That’s been debunked so many times I can’t believe there are fools still peddling that line.

I’ve got a .338 he’d enjoy. Nothing like scope bite.

He proceeded to shoot an AR-15 that had been modified from semi-automatic to fully automatic, a procedure that is illegal, but as the range owner explained, fairly easy for individuals to do with parts that can be purchased legally.

Really? So the "range owner" admitted to being a felon as he lied about it being "fairly easy" to convert an AR to auto fire?

Yeah, I’d have saddled him up with the 30.06 to start with. And get him to hold it like Obama does in that picture the White Hut has been circulating. Morgan could use a little medical leave.

They are unbelievably powerful. You don’t even have to fire them to kill people.
The media doesn’t even try to look objective anymore.

As fast as he can pull the trigger until it goes ping.

Nope, that was an initial erroneous report. The coroner said that all the victims were shot with 5.56mm rounds. He did have two pistols on him (I think) but apparently never used them, unless he used one to off himself.

Give the wimp a Russian Mosin Nagant to shoot and let him understand what real power is.

“I’d like to see the wimp shoot my slug gun (12 ga).”

I wanted to see the sphincter fire the pistol gripped 12 ga. pump. That would have been funny.

Piers Morgan reinvents himself

Morgan exited amid scandal because he’d been duped into publishing faked photos of British troops urinating on Iraqi detainees. His Fleet Street rivals gleefully called it “Wee-gate.”

“What the hell am I going to do now?” he asked himself.

He gathered up his mates and drowned his sorrows in liberal doses of alcohol. He collected a healthy severance and a fat advance for his tell-all “diaries.” He told anyone who would listen it would take him five years slaving away as a newspaper editor to make that much money.

And then he set about reinventing Piers Morgan.

Now, at age 45, Morgan is again being cast as the boy wonder. Tonight, he takes over CNN’s 9 p.m. time slot, vacated in December by Larry King.

The hyperbolic Oprah Winfrey, his first guest on “Piers Morgan Tonight,” said their taped chat was her toughest interview in 20 years. “We all just went, ‘Woo, what was that?’ I’m not kidding. I was surprised,” she told reporters at a red carpet event for the launch of her new network, OWN.

“Of course I’m a little apprehensive,” Morgan said of his show’s debut. “But the adrenalin’s flowing.” He said he’s confident but added, “We’ll all be watching the numbers.”

If you, like many Americans, are asking “Who is this guy?” you’re about to find out.

“He’s a newspaper guy from central casting,” said Robert Thompson, who teaches courses in media and pop culture at Syracuse University. “What he was doing in newspapers is something that translates nicely into our current multimedia culture. He’s got a personality for television.”

Piers Stefan O’Meara was born in Sussex, England, in 1965, the oldest of four children. His father died when he was very young, and he took his stepfather’s last name, Pughe-Morgan. Later, he shortened it to Morgan because it made for a better byline.

Don't be taken in by this pompous a$$. He is just practicing the Simon Cowell school of journalism by being the obnoxious Brit you love to hate. It is the same technique practiced by pro wrestlers and Muhammad Ali early in his career. He says the most offensive and obnoxious things you can imagine and waits for Americans to tune into his show to see his a$$ kicked.

This self promotion drives his ratings up and he laughs all the way to the bank. Deny him his attention and starve the beast.
