Of course I am, you moron > RT @coelkhntr I think you are somewhat gleeful that a tragedy happened to help you push your cause

Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 19, 2012Piers Morgan has a penchant for exploiting tragedies to push a political agenda, but this afternoon, he outdid himself in morbid fashion. Right after tweeting that his anti-gun views derive from his concern for murdered children …
My 'cause' is stopping more children dying > RT @SpongeSteve no we are accusing u of exploiting deaths of children to further ur own cause.—
Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 19, 2012
… he said this:
Morgan was being sarcastic, of course. But his ghoulish sense of humor and his tasteless timing failed to amuse. Twitterers were shocked, saddened, and thoroughly disgusted:
Can we deport this buffoon already? RT @jaseliberty Wow. Just wow. Piers Morgan has no shame. twitter.com/piersmorgan/st… …—

I'm man enough to admit I've shed tears several times over Newtown. @piersmorgan is "gleeful" about it. Absolutely sickening.—
Todd Kincannon (@ToddKincannon) December 19, 2012
This much is clear: Piers Morgan is reveling in all the attention.
Just remember, Musket Morgan: It takes a “showboat” to know one.

Update:
Morgan may love the attention his idiocy brings him, but he’s not taking kindly to well-deserved criticism:
This is the kind of spell-bindingly stupid attack I'm getting now from the gun rights activists: breitbart.com/Big-Journalism…—

Deliberating twisting my obvious sarcasm to inspire hatred is, yes > RT @NolteNC @piersmorgan reporting something you wrote is an 'attack'?—
Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 19, 2012
Pretty sure Morgan inspires hatred all on his own. And not only is he refusing to accept that he’s a colossal jackass, but he’s lashing out at anyone who dares to point it out:
No @NolteNC – you deliberately smeared me for political expediency. Which is sad, pathetic, and journalistically cretinous. Be ashamed.—
Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 19, 2012
@benshapiro You lot knew what you were doing, especially with your headline. And it was disgraceful. Feel proud, seriously.—
Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 19, 2012
Gee, projecting much, Piers? How pathetic.
@NolteNC I knew, and admired, Andrew Breitbart. He would never have stooped as low as you today. Cheapest of cheap smears.—
Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 19, 2012
.@PiersMorgan You are full of it. You did not "admire" Andrew Breitbart. You said he was "notoriously evil." townhall.com/tipsheet/katie…—
Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 19, 2012
The man has no shame.
.@NolteNC I like how @piersmorgan is trying to blame you for his obviously politicized and offensive tweet. Classic liberal redirection.—
