Bloomberg showed where his priority was — by saying that the marathon would take place.
Later yesterday, political and people pressure caused him to retract that position.
It did, however, show Bloomberg’s incompetence.
Absolutely.

Bloomberg said yesterday that he wanted to be like “Mayor Rudy,” who said the marathon must go on even after the first 9/11 attack. I guess the self-centered fool didn’t realize that thousands of New Yorkers have no homes, water or food, and were going to be tossed out in the street in order to accomodate the runners. This situation is totally unlike 9/11 where there was tremendous destruction in a mostly commercial area in NYC, but most people still had homes, heat, food, water, transportation and electricity. This makes Bloomberg’s endorsement of Obama for reasons of “climate change,” more understandable. How did an idiot like this ever get wealthy?
