Bloomberg's on the pudgy side, himself.

This is low-rent, to criticize a dead guy.

Of course, the Atkins' folks could simply reproduce the cause of death listed on the death certificate. In no place have I read that Atkins (a cardiologist) had heart trouble.

Bloomberg's such a disappointment, after Rudy.

You'd think even Marg Helgenberger could figure out if a guy had a heart-attack before he his head hit the pavement.

Bloomberg is a pompous a$$. As for slipping on the ice, he should pray I never take a spill in NYC. Oh wait, yeah I almost took spill sliding on a log of human feces in the subway. Good job Mayor. While he's playing health police, the vagrants ride the subways and vendors clog the streets. If I ever go to the City, it's because I love the City and not HIM.

That does it for me. This bozo no longer gets the benefit of a doubt from me. Let's hope that Vito Fasella decides to challenge Bloomberg.

Three well-known elderly Americans died from falls within a few months: Atkins, Katherine Graham, David Brinkley.

BTW Bloomberg is blasted in the current Vanity Fair by Christopher Hitchens. Not on line, unfortunately.

I saw just today an ad from Duke Medical School touting a low-carb diet as an alternative to their famous low fat diet.

Vegetarian John Troy regained his health and inner peace (and lost 93 lbs.) after eating the Atkins way.

Going pseudo-Atkins lost my last 10 pounds out of 30.

Maybe we could get Bullsh*t Bloomberg and John F*cking Kerry together and see what kind of f*cking bullsh*t they can spew.

New York deserves a total nut like Bloomberg. Except for Rudy, that's their pattern...total nut jobs in the Mayor's office.

How amazingly *weird* is this Bloomberg. Many times I've thought we'd be better off with a Dem in his job than a fake Repub.

I suspected that Bloomingpinhead was not too high-wattage.

Suspicion: confirmed.

You learn a lot about people by the fools they elect to lead them.

I am no fan of the Atkin's Diet for two reasons: #1 I felt awful on it ie it did not work for me and #2 because the adherers of this diet are like a cult following in their defensiveness ok and #3 I think balanced diets are the healthiest approach to folks not prone to diabetes. I think it is marketed broadly, but really is only healthy LONG TERM for a segment of society that is prone to certain diseases.
Some here are right that it is not really polite to insult a dead guy, but all the Atkin's folks here should also consider that unlike them, Bloomberg has actually broke "bread" with Dr. Atkin's and probably has a little more awareness of the type of man he was and how he looked day to day. As for the death, yeah it probably was a legit head injury, but remember this diet was going like gangbusters and still is after Atkin's death. What could be the side effects to this diet's money flow/noteriety if it was revealed that Dr. Atkin's suffered from heart failure on a diet he used for many years longer than the current dieters(being a case study unto himself). Not accusing anyone of a cover up just throwing something out there to consider.
