Having never heard of old Piers before Newtown, Trayvon & George allowed him to get his anti-gun frothing up to fully rabid levels, and only then learning about him from gun bloggers, and even then only seeing him on one of 5 screens in my gym every once in a while, I can state with authority that Piers can go, I won't miss him.

ReplyDeleteYou bought him, you can keep him.

ReplyDeleteKatie's colonoscopy would get much better ratings if they showed someone pulling her head out first. But, then it would be a miniseries.
