CBS Features NY Mayor Bloomberg Speculating Bomber Was Mad About ObamaCare By Brent Baker Created 05/03/2010 - 19:37 With Katie Couric drawing him out, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg agreed the Times Square car bombing was likely “homegrown” as he proceeded, in an interview excerpt run on Monday's CBS Evening News, to speculate it could have been placed by “somebody with a political agenda who doesn't like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.”

Could be “anything,” but the first thing Bloomberg thinks of are those who don't like ObamaCare, presumably conservatives or Tea Party activists.

Audio: MP3 clip [0]

From part of Couric's interview with the mayor aired on the Monday, May 3 CBS Evening News:

KATIE COURIC: Law enforcement officials don't know who left the Nissan Pathfinder behind, but, at this point, the mayor believes the suspect acted alone.

MAYOR MICHAEL BLOOMBERG: If I had to guess -- 25 cents -- this would be exactly that, somebody-

COURIC: A home-grown?

BLOOMBERG: Home-grown, maybe a mentally deranged person or somebody with a political agenda that doesn't like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.

Right...look at opponents of Obamacare with suspicion first, before terrorist organizations. What a jerk. And speaking of political agendas, what does he think his social engineering in banning trans-fats and salt is?

Terrorists can’t throw the politicians out of office.

Tea Partiers, can.

So who have the politicians made Public Enemy Number One?

>> BLOOMBERG: It could be anything.

In other words, Bloomberg doesn’t know with certainty what the incident is about, but still takes aim at those opposed to Obamacare.

Just about everyone is “mad” about nobamacare. The fact that one is a terrorist does not preclude being “mad” about nobamacare.
