After the Toomey-Manchin gun bill failed in the Senate on Wednesday, CNN's Piers Morgan let loose on Twitter at President Obama and "cowards" in the Senate who didn't "give a stuff" about the Newtown families.
"How many schoolchildren have to be murdered next time for Washington to do anything? 50, 100, 1000? Name the number, you cowards. @NRA" he ranted. Morgan didn't take it easy on the President, either: "President Obama strong on guns rhetoric again now - but truth is, he's failed the Newtown families too. Got nothing done re gun control #CNN".
Of course, Morgan has reason to be upset given that he's been CNN's resident gun control activist for four months. Since the Newtown shooting, he's incessantly called for gun control while belittling and shaming gun rights advocates and the NRA.
Here are some more of his tweets from Wednesday afternoon:
"20 poor little children blown to pieces at school - and America's politicians do NOTHING. Absolutely shameful. #NewtownBetrayed"
"Sandy Hook father talking now on CNN. My heart aches for him, my rage festers. These Senators have disgraced democracy. #NewtownBetrayed"
"Imagine those Newtown family members at the Senate today - suddenly realising their lawmakers don't give a stuff about their dead children."
"The U.S. senate just voted against expanding background checks for gun sales. What a pathetic, gutless bunch of cowards. #NewtownBetrayed"
If you’ve upset Morgan then you did something right.
How would anything in the bill prevent the idiot from shooting up the school?
What a moron...
STFU Lime Bastuhd ...
Piers Morgan should go back to his own failing country.
I am so sick of being told I don’t care about the Newtown kids.
I care about them. I wish someone around that school was carrying a gun.
What I don’t care for is Obama holding up a bloody baby to guilt the country into voting his way.
Ef Obama.
> I can understand the Sandy Hook families allowing themselves to be used. But not for much longer. Sorry, but far more than 20 have died defending the Constitution that Morgan, Obama, Reid and their progressive fellow travelers want to destroy.
On the head. They got called out for using a tragedy and their families to promote their agenda to disarm citizens when they didnt give a damn about them. With all the liberal loonies running around we need them to protect us from their lunacy.
Voting to satisfy the dangerous, savage Left is gutless. Voting against them takes courage.
FU piers... you should leave America now.
LLS
He said he’d leave the US if we did not obey his British demandments. Bye, bye Peirs. It’s too dangerous here for you.
Go back to Britain, Piers you silk-bloomered sissy.
Background checks are a great idea. Let’s start with Obomba.
3000 poor little children cut to pieces by "doctors" each and every day, and America's politicians do NOTHING. Absolutely shameful."
