"When times were tough, Rheingold abandoned Brooklyn, laying off 4,000 New Yorkers," said Jordan Barowitz, a spokesman for Bloomberg.

Leave it to Bloomberg to get into a pissing contest with a brewery.

Powell put together a list of topics for future ads, including the restriction on feeding pigeons, a ban on bikers lifting both feet off the pedals, and a ticket given to a pregnant woman who stopped to rest on subway steps.

I'd have thought this was from the Onion.

Then I remembered, this is from NYC, crown jewel of the "land of the free". < snicker >

Lucky for Mike, the only person Bloomberg is more popular than is Mark Green. Just barely.

Funny how he doesn't mention that Rheingold closed down because they couldn't afford to pay extortionate NYC water charges.

But unfortunately these days that rarely means anything unpopular will be reversed.

Ah, Rheingold! Remember

My beer is Rheingold, the dry beer
Think of Rheingold whenever you buy beer...

And of course, Miss Rheingold, subject of a memorable smutty joke amongst adolescent boys fifty years ago: "Why did they have to fire Miss Rheingold?..."

Sadly, the answer cannot be given on a family website. But it sounded very clever if you were thirteen and trying to be cool about sex (and beer).

It's not bitter, not sweet,
it's the extra dry treat.
Won't you try extra dry Rheingold Beer

I couldn't drink the stuff plain. Its only use was to make a half and half with Guinness Stout.

Bloomy seems like EX-Gov. Davis in CA. Everybody came after him with pitchforks!

Heh, heh...it warms my heart to know that our brave tobacco warriors are up in arms over a beer ad. Poetic irony. Speaking of tobacco, time to head to the old humidor and fire up a tasty broadleaf cigar to round out my day. Mayor Bloomberg's nanny-state apparatachiks will no doubt be upset to hear this, which suits me just fine.

I was a teenager when Rheingold closed, but I remember my dad and a bunch of the neighbors talking about it for months.....they were all cops and firemen, beer drinkers, and smokers...........

Sorry, but if the 'rats put up Freddy Ferrer or some other far left, racist panderer, I'm going to have to seriously consider Goonberg -- and I voted against him *THREE* times (the original GOP primary on 9/11, the make-up primary on 9/25 and the general election in November).
