Was going home in midtown yesterday and I saw two obvious Obama supporters hanging around city “housing” and wearing “Run the Elites out of Town!” shirts.

I’d like to see them eat after the “elites” get out and stop paying their bills.

To add insult to injury, these clowns live a 15 minute walk from my job but I have to commute 1-2 hours because real estate is too expensive in the area for us “elites”.

Next, they’re going to be begging the feds for a bail out. You and I are going to pay the price for NY remaining a liberal bastion.

Why so modest? Why not 50%?

There will be 1,000 fewer cops, but the city will hire 200 more traffic agents to give out $60 million a year in new block-the-box tickets.

Some years ago Bloomberg's "agents" gave a $60 ticket to a guy sitting on a milk crate. Seems like he was using a milk crate "improperly". I kid you not.

Store owners are pulling down their awnings if they have more that the store's name on them. One guy got ticketed because his awning mentioned tobacco, newspapers, snacks, and other inflamatory words.

Then there was a pregnant woman who was sitting on the subway stairs. She was fined $50. OK, may she was blocking the narrow exit, but couldn't she have been told to move along?

New Yorkers are in for a lot more of this creative "law enforcement". "To Protect and Serve" has become "To fine and harass."

Thats why Bloomberg switched to a Republican.

So those filthy pieces of $#!+ could blame Republicans for the mess that NYC has been for generations (of freakin democrats).
