Admittedly, I don't know everything about Piers Morgan, and he'd probably surprise me in some aspects. (Like I was surprised that he's religious, which knocks him down a few pegs for me).
I've only seen his most controversial disputes, and they seemed pretty left to me. (Cue gun control) More importantly, I was more making the statement that he's a clown. He seems to think that he can just superimpose Britain as this objective model of why America is wrong, and never seems to be able to dig beyond the face value of the statistics and goes crazy any time anyone tries to point that out or offer an explanation why that is a fruitless venture when considering context.
I don't care who it is, left or right. The moment their ideology becomes impervious to reasonable opposition (especially when their response is simply to insult that opposition), they're a clown.
