Given the title of the article, looks like quote manipulation by 1010 WINS... although Bloomberg is in an election year in this Leninite city.

Et tu Bloomberg?

[AFreeBird]

Gee Michael, how may disasters (other than those of your own making) have you had to deal with?

Let's hear from Rudy.

[faithincowboys]

What a RINO lowflife. He's from Massachussetts and he is just a nebbishy douche bag.

[Uncle Joe Cannon]

"It would appear, and I think the president acknowledged, that the federal government's response has been inadequate," Bloomberg told reporters at City Hall.

Wrong. The president said the response has been inadequate. He did not say whether it was Federal/State/Local.

[GreenAccord]

Citizen: Mayor an incompetent boob.

End of response.

[hiredhand]

Mayor Nagin, and everybody else following the badness after Katrina in NOLA, needs to read THIS...

Like all good NY's hates President Bush.

Bloomberg deserves New York and New York deserves Bloomberg.

I have noticed that dems don't tend to eat their own, but repubs do. What the heck is wrong with these people?

"It would appear, and I think the president acknowledged, that the federal government's response has been inadequate," Bloomberg told reporters at City Hall.

It would appear, Mr. Bloomberg, that you are an idiot. While the President said the response was unacceptable, he meant (and was kind enough to not name names) that Louisiana officials were standing in the way of relief efforts - BLOCKING relief is unacceptable, wouldn't you agree Mr. Bloomberg?

I detest these creeps.

NYC deserves Fernando Ferrer. I hope they get him! :-)

The hell with Bloomie. He's so insignificant, Ragin hasn't answered his calls.

[chet_in_ny]

Now you're crossing the line:)

[onyx]

Nagin, not Ragin. I'm raging.

[Sometimes A River]

Bush himself said the same thing, didn't he?

[Cboldt]

Great link. http://tiadaily.com/php-bin/news/showArticle.php?id=1026

Can it be posted as it's own thread? It has lots of specific information, as well as pointing out the unnecessary complexity in this recovery, caused by the concentration of thugs in NOLA.

[RGSpincich]

Bloomberg said he has reached out to New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, but has not been able to get in touch.

Neither one of them could hit their ass with both hands.

[etcetera]

Pres. Bush is too much of a gentleman to point fingers. He'll let the facts come out as the city dries out.

And Bloomberg failed to see the real problem; expect something to happen and "Bloomberg" will end up eating his own words ...
