Two differences between Michael Bloomberg and James O'Keefe:

[friendly_iconoclast]

1. Budget

2. The uncut versions of O'Keefe's gotcha videos are available. AFAIK, Bloomie has only released edited versions of his videos

1. k and r

2. You know what this thread needs ?

3. "Net Worth" & "one tries to claim they are independent" ?

Bloomberg is like the 10th richest guy in America
Bloomberg claims he's "independent"... not consrvative/republican. (lol)

4. He is reported to have been a life long Democrat prior to the 2001 NYC election

and received support from prominent NY Democrats when he ran in 2005 for re-election (See Wikipedia)


What Bloomberg is, is a authoritarian opportunist who thinks he is smarter then everybody else and that he should be able to control peoples lives. He also thinks that the laws for regular people shouldn't apply to him.

7. It's funny how he wants to outlaw fatty foods for a healthier populace

Wouldn't that just make it easier to outrun his cops?

8. Don't forget the "distracted walking" laws hes pushing too. N/T

[X_Digger]

9. Or supporting the 'stop and frisk' program that seems to target non-whites

In 2009, 575,304 New Yorkers were stopped by the police.
504,594 were totally innocent (88 percent)
308,941 were black (54 percent)
179,576 were Latino (31 percent)
53,466 were white (9 percent)

10. One vital and missing statistic

Would be how many in each group had their sag on .

[HankyDubs]

5. long on allegations

short on proof.

6. #1 is obvious. #2- Kindly let us know where we may view the *uncut* gun show videos.

Then, and only then, will I retract what I have said in this thread.

Unless and until we can see all of Bloomberg's undercover videos, I stand by the OP.

[friendly_iconoclast]

12. No source for Bloomie's raw video has been given. I rest my case.

11. Which succinctly sums up most of your posts. nt
