NEW YORK -- Campaigning for re-election in an unquestionably liberal city, Mayor Michael Bloomberg has broken with fellow Republicans, saying he opposes President Bush's pick for Chief Justice of the United States.

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

More BS from the liberal press.

Nowhere in this news article does it state that he himself..... Mr Bloomberg.... *******IS******** a liberal republican.

Gotta love google.... Even from Newsday's own pages no less!!!!!

^^^^^^^^^^WASHINGTON -- Michael Bloomberg is apparently miffed by Karl Rove's statement that liberals were wimpier than conservatives in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

But the self-described liberal Republican mayor couldn't quite bring himself to criticize the White House's top political aide by name Thursday -- which drew ringing denunciations from Democrats.^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I feel like having a dean moment.... YYYEEEAAARRRGGG!!!! ok, I'm feeling better. I am so sick of the G.D. liberal media and it's half truths, and ignored facts.

All they're doing is trying to push YET ANOTHER wedge between conservatives and republicans, and conservatives and our new(to be) chief justice.

If we all freeped newsday at noon tomorrow, would that be enough to cause a DdOS?

They need it.

Michael Bloomberg is a liberal Democrat who ran as a Republican in the wake of 911 for two reasons: to sail into office on Rudy Guliani's coattails and to be able to run unopposed.

But make no mistake, the man is a Democrat.

Glad to see you take on your frustrations in a constructive way. Been there myself.

Someone might want to e-mail Caruso and tell him TOO LATE!

Roberts has already been confirmed!

[George from New England]

It's all about abortion. That is the one common evil that all Roberts' adversaries have. Nothing more.

Here's the corrected headline.

New York's RINO mayor opposes Bush pick for Supreme Court

[Azzurri]

Michael Bloomberg is a Nancy Boy. Hard to believe he has been so financially successful in life.

[THX 1138]

Who cares what Bloomberg thinks?

[Humidston]

Liberal Democrat indeed! If Bloomberg had his choice, he'd probably reincarnate Earl Warren!

[KoRn]

Well this is pretty much nothing, since Bloomberg is insignificant in the big picture.

In other words, WHO THE HELL CARES!?!

[billnaz]

What do you expect? Bloomberg's a freakin' RINO, who would sell out his party for 30 pieces of silver in a heartbeat.

And I don't believe President Bush loses too much sleep over what Bloomberg thinks.

[EagleUSA]

Liberal Democrat indeed! If Bloomberg had his choice, he'd probably reincarnate Earl Warren!

But of course. There is no way a REAL conservative (notice I did not say Repub) could survive in the liberal cesspool of NY...

[GaltMeister]

Sombody needs to remind RINO Bloomberg of this:

Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment: "Thou shalt not speak ill of a fellow Republican."

[i_dont_chat]

So, do mayor's have a vote?

[PhiKapMom]

Bloomberg is the poster boy for the word RINO since he is a true Democrat who only came over to the GOP to get elected. I say we give him back!

[Trajan88]

Hey Bloomberg... be quite and go count your money.

[hombre_sincero]

there's a GOP mayor in NYC?

[FOXFANVOX]

RINO is too conservative a term for the mayor. Besides, to oppose John Roberts [arguably the most brilliant jurist to appear before the Senate in decades] reveals him for what he really is, a pandering liberal. Better NYC had a moderate Democrat for mayor than Bloomberg.

[SampleMan]

I forget which article of the Constitution says, "...advise and consent of the Senate and the Mayor of New York" Can someone help me out here?

[PhiKapMom]

He is a liberal democrat and Republican in Name Only is too nice of term for the jerk is right.
