Piers Morgan on Bloomberg’s soda ban: “I think people need the nanny state occasionally”

Piers Morgan on Bloomberg’s soda ban: “I think people need the nanny state occasionally.” We wonder, is this a subliminal cry from Piers to have a date with Mayor Nanny?

  • Didn't know where to put this since poppa broke the Tip jar, it kinda fits here, in a backhanded sort of way in my warped mind http://tinyurl.com/d4j28qv

    Now we can argue the woman's tactics*, but that's not my point, this is what leaped out at me and made me snork (_)3 laughing, Pot... Kettle

    " Ron Echols, superintendent of Fort Morgan Schools said, "I respect her right to do what's best for her family…But, I wish she would leave the school out of it. We cannot support something that is demeaning to the kids."

    Welcome to our world you over-educated dumbass. (and no, that is not an oxymoron)

    *[but I will highlight this, "According to Ms. Rocha, the stealing shirt worked and after the one day Aurora wore the shirt, her stealing stopped."]

      • Nah, you were just the first one I saw comment on it, squeaky wheel and all that. ;)

          • I have given up the cause. Since efforts in futility used to be my specialty, I've come to recognize them sooner. If I have a tip, then I look for a thread into which it would relate or use as a segue. If i can't find a suitable thread, it will be lost to the wind, like these spitty raspberries -×-×-×-×-×-×-×-×-×-

          • They took it out of the FAQ, suggesting they prefer to have us go through the Contact function where I guess we're supposed to select Tipline as the type and enter all the other pertinent info, then go through all that to send to their inbox. I prefer to stick em in places where everybody can see em whether they get picked up and turned into an item or not. I've gleaned many links from people here that were never picked up by IHTM that way.

            I hereby implore the IHTM authorities to return to the previous method or at least create a clearing house type repository such as the Tips page was.

          • That or I always kind of liked the idea of an "open" running thread for things like that and interesting topics that come up and don't really fit anywhere. Like the Walking Dead thread hijackings ;)

          • Agreed. We are the "customers" after all and it seems arbitrary that a valued part of this site disappeared.

  • Piers Morgan needs a nanny boot up his ass, a set of handcuffs on his wrists, and a deportation order back to face charges in his Native UK.

  • Piers should take his traveling road show to let us say North Korea or Cuba. That way he can have all the nanny state he wants.

    To those in England or the British Empire, one if your idiots has gotten away. Please come here, capture him and take him back across the pond.

    • That's an interesting idea. Piers and Dennis doing the Morgan and Rodman show from Korea!
      Now that's something I would love to see on TV, just for the pleasure of changing the channel.

      • Would'nt work, because it would require Morgan to leave Manhattan. Outside of Hollywood, he does'nt want to go west of the George Washington bridge & meet real Americans who hold American values who understand our constitutional rights. Piers has no interest in meeting people in flyover land who need pickups, SUVs, & firearms to work & live in places like the Dakotas, Wyoming, Oklahoma, or Texas. He is a man of very limited appeal, & his ratings point to that. My guess is that he's too expensive to buy out his contract at the current time, & that's the only reason he's still on the air.

  • It's always a zero-sum game with libs. Like when the EPA over-regulates, libs defend them with, "Well, some government regulation is necessary." It's like a telling an obese person they're eating too much and they respond, "Well, I just won't eat anything then." It's a silly argument/response the media let libs get away with.

  • Score 1. One of them has conceded that not only is there such a thing but that he is in favor of it. Most leftards deride the "Nanny State" tag as right-wing teebaggr sloganeering.
