The Portable Bloomberg: in his own words
Someone on myDD pointed out an interesting resource I had never heard of: The Portable Bloomberg. It has been reviewed by New York magazine, so it must be real. In it are Bloomberg's views as CEO, in his own words:
"I make it a rule never to go to Queens -- and since that eliminates both airports I don't travel a great deal."--Michael Bloomberg
"How do you motivate someone? Simple. Are they addicted to three meals a day?"--Michael Bloomberg
"The Royal family -- what a bunch of misfits -- a gay, an architect, that horsey faced lesbian, and a kid who gave up Koo Stark for some fat broad."--Michael Bloomberg
"The three biggest lies are: The check's in the mail, I'll respect you in the morning, and I'm glad that I'm Jewish."--Michael Bloomberg
"If women wanted to be appreciated for their brains, they'd go to the library instead of to Bloomingdale's."--Michael Bloomberg
"I know for a fact that any self-respecting woman who walks past a construction site [and] doesn't get a whistle will turn around and walk past again and again until she does get one."--Michael Bloomberg
Given the attention that Ferrer's gaffes get, why don't more people talk about Bloomberg's obnoxious comments?

These are awful statements about people based on religion, gender, and where people live and if the Bloomberg had gotten the media coverage he should have gotten in 2001 he would have never won and if he got it now he would lose or it would a lot closer. Media outlets will not do this because they are afraid of being shut out like some have and losing huge revenue streams from the campaign. The Ferrer campaign will not touch this either as Green handled it so badly 4 years ago with some awful commercials. That said everyone needs to know how Bloomberg treated women and others before he started to be "handled" by consultants and turned into the politican he claims not to be.
OMFG! These are hilarious
What a shmuck!
