Someone on myDD pointed out an interesting resource I had never heard of: The Portable Bloomberg. It has been reviewed by New York magazine, [1] 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

Another example: [2]

"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

And some more: [3]

"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?
