Mayor Bloomberg on the Debate

The Gothamist reports

In last night's Presidential debate Governor Romney and President Obama were asked about gun control, specifically keeping assault weapons out of the hands of criminals. And in case you were curious, Mayor Bloomberg—who really, really hates guns—was not amused by either candidates answers. At all. "We don't need more talk," he said of Obama's call for more discussion with the American people on the subject of gun control. "We need some leadership." 

 "I think number one it is unfortunate that it required an outraged member of the public and not the national press core" to "force the candidates to answer the question" said Bloomberg—who has been spending a lot to try and make guns a part of this election—before tearing into the candidates. According to Hizzoner what we got last night was a "a perfect example of obfuscation and very little honesty." 

"One candidate has had four years to do something and hasn't. And the other candidate says he won't even do what he once did!"
I wonder if Bloomberg has ever heard the theory that Obama is just waiting for his second term to take action.

What's your opinion?  Please leave a comment.

  1. Oh, burn! He's completely right. I'm glad Obama has finally given support to the AWB and stronger background checks, but words are cheap.

    1. Burn? Bloomingbutt isn't running for dictator of the nation--yet. He can whine all he wants, but the candidates for the top office know better than pushing your side's whole agenda. Anyone going for that would go down in flames most places.

    1. Does anyone give a fuck what you post on your blog? It's cute that you think so. Anyone willing to read that drivel, probably already does. Everybody else has probably checked it out once and realized what a colossal waste of time it is.

    4. Baldr isn't your name either you cowardly fuck. Don't you have anything better to do than to argue over this anyway? Ooooh, that's right you don't. Sorry about your pathetic little life.

  3. Bloomingbutt is a tyrant in the same vein as Hugo Chavez. He's more constrained, thanks to American law, but his goals are clear. A better comparison would be Berlusconi in Italy. Bloomingbutt is wealthy with his own media company and now enjoys tinkering with the lives of the peasants.

    1. Greg your antisocial behavior, as well as your provocative and contrived statements, demonstrates that your ignorance is so profound that you require behavior modification and thought reform.

      It's not the place of the peasant to question it's governance.

      (Although I will adorn the above statement with the caveat that such unquestionable governance ought to be a legitimate one, which is capable of achieving it's many duties and obligations and does so in a fair and proper manner.)

    2. You really don't believe what you say, I take it. It's not the place of a peasant to question the government? Just how do you imagine that we get good government unless the citizens ask questions and chose who's in office?

    3. Bloomberg = Chavez???? Greg, that's pretty stupid.

    4. Mike, I think it starts becoming a valid comparison when politicians like Bloomberg start changing the laws so they can get additional terms.

    5. Bloomingbutt is limited by U.S. law, but Mikeb, it surprises me that you're not disturbed at how he got the law rewritten to allow him another term. I know that you have no problem with his efforts to micromanage the lives of New Yorkers, but doesn't his self-righteous tone irritate you?
