Bloomie's company has had a presence in Dubai for a decade.
I know it's impossible to read or see every article posted here, but thankfully this one was easy for me to find.
May Bloomberg be judged by the denizens of any victory mosque built on that land, and may he be found wanting. And then later bowing in front, waiting for the scimitar to come down.
“The mayor and others who support the building of the center have said it will help bridge divisions between the West and the Muslim world”
And therein lies the problem: Bloomin’ Idiot is delusional
It’s sad that Bloomberg is a gay lizard.
It was a sad day when Bloomberg and his co-conspirators overruled the will of the people (who’d spoken firmly TWICE) and with a stroke of the pen allowed themselves illegal third terms in office.
Was it a sad day when there could be no nativity scene on public property.
No prayers in schools.......was that sad Mr. Blooming-idiot.
Prayers at graduation?
It will help bridge divisions between the Muslim world and his pocketbook.
This was on Aug. 10.
His ratings are plummeting.
NYC is waking up.
Mayor Michael Bloombergs Approval Rating Drops Below 50 Percent, Poll Says August 10, 2010
Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s approval rating is at its lowest since 2005, according to a new poll.

CITY HALL Mayor Michael Bloombergs approval rating has fallen below 50 percent for the first time since 2005, according to a new survey.
The Marist Poll found that just 49 percent of New Yorkers think Bloomberg is doing a good or excellent job in office, down from 56 percent in April. Bloomberg’s approval rating last dipped below 50 percent in June 2005, according to Marist.
Chief executives often find third terms difficult, and the current economic climate is not making it any easier for Bloomberg, Lee M. Miringoff, director of The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion, said in a statement. Right now, New York City voters are divided about the job the mayor is doing.
Thirty-three percent of New York voters think Bloomberg is doing a fair job, 16 percent said he is doing poorly and two percent were uncertain.
Manhattan voters were the most supportive of Bloomberg, with 56 percent saying he is doing a good or excellent job. But thats still less than the 62 percent who approved of him back in April.
Support for Bloomberg held steady among Republicans over the past few months but dropped among Democrats and unaffiliated voters, Marist found.
Nearly half of those surveyed also said the city is moving in the wrong direction.
Stu Loeser, spokesman for the mayor, said Bloomberg is not afraid to make unpopular decisions based on his principles.
The mayor has always done what he thinks is right, including cutting programs people like instead of letting the city go into default and standing up for Constitutional rights even if it’s not popular,” Loeser said in a statement. “In the long run, New Yorkers respect that he doesn’t put his finger in the wind to see what to do.
Despite the low approval rating, just 5 percent of voters called Bloomberg one of the citys worst mayors. Twelve percent said he would be remembered as one of the citys best mayors and another 34 percent said he would leave a positive legacy.
Bloomberg hasnt announced any presidential plans once he leaves office at the end of 2013, but nearly 70 percent of New Yorkers dont want him to run for the White House, Marist found.
As for who should succeed Bloomberg, voters are expressing a strong opinion about what they dont want.
Sixty-four percent of voters do not want former Gov. Eliot Spitzer to run for mayor, and 56 percent said they do not want Diana Taylor, Bloombergs longtime companion, to run for his office.
Marist spoke to 696 registered voters between July 28 and Aug. 5. The results have a 4 percent margin for error. The Manhattan results encompass 140 registered voters, with an error margin of 8.5 percent.
sad day for you maybe bloomeee but not for the rest of us.
The muslims, stone cold sober strategists they are, took our temples of capitalism and brought them down in one thunderous, historic attack. The Twin Towers along with the White House, Pentagon and Capitol Buildings were the cornerstone of our greatness. They tried to get them all in one fateful attack. And we still play pity patty with these snake bastards.
Pull back 30,000 feet from the timeline of history and see what has been accomplished. The muslims accomplished through terrorism what the Germans and Japanese could not accomplish with millions of soldiers. They took the fight to us and knocked us back on our heels.
They didn't until the dumba$$ American people elected a muslim, marxist POS as their president...not mine, but their's. ......and yet the mayor of the socialist cesspool ny city (lower case on purpose)...sides with those muslim pigs anuses..... There is indeed two America's.....
Of course that's it! Bloomie sold out long ago!
I’m sitting here smoking my cigarette on a quiet night envisioning bloomberg as a gay lizard! Too too funny!
He’s a snake. A rich snake, but a snake, nonetheless.
Is it just delusion...or is it addiction (literally) to whatever brain chemical is produced by the prospect of wealth?
Whatever it is, it is by any measure of behavior...nutz!
Since I know you can clarify this matter, I humbly beseech...
Most Manhattanites don't give a sh-t about the Mosque. Its better than another Dunkin Donuts or Duane Reade anyway (not that that's saying much).
