Yes. And he doesn’t want the first responders there, either. So. Bloomberg is a retard, as well as a really bad mayor? This is what happens when you put a silver-spoon, trust-fund baby with NO concept of the real world in power...we sure ducked a bullet with Gore, didn’t we?

Perhaps it is time for REAL Americans to show up to these leftie shindigs. I would LOVE to see the ministers and priests, the families, and the first responders show up, surround Ground Zero, and during Bloomie’s gassy speech, stand up, hold hands, say a prayer and break into the Star Spangled Banner. Wouldn’t THAT be a wonderful sight!

Now THAT would be a classic American thing to do.

So no first responders, no clergy. Who do they want there? Other pond scum pols? “Celebrities”? I’m officially ignoring their “memorial service”.

I hope that scores of people break into the Lord's Prayer at the Memorial service. About the time the first plane crashed into the first tower. The powers that be cannot squelch our religious heritage. It isn't right!

I don’t think these events are appropriate. Clearly, they are being run to advance current political/special interest agendas. Then you have orgs like the NFL seeking to horn in ultimately for no other reason than to assuage their guilt over playing games on Sept 11. Just play the games and skip the guilt trip “ceremonies.”

What happened on that day was horrible and will always BE horrible and the idea that an “anniversary” can be made of it and then used by slimebags like Bloomberg to advance their secular fantasies...

No.

Who’s memorial is this anyway?!?! Bloomberg is turning this into a politically correct event which means he has politicized it, which in most peoples’ view is a sacrilege ... tell ya what, how bout some devout believers in the area go and kneel in silence, as a group, and sincerely pray that blue ice falls from the sky and smacks Bloomberg in the head...

Pray anyway and dare this weasel to arrest you.

For Bloomie, I guess the mask is off. He's comfortable being his evil self in public without even a pretense of goodness.

I’m not going to participate in a 9/11 memorial of any kind. Soros and the Democrats and their lying media have completely destroyed any sense of shame or honor in this country.

Oh no you don’t... NJ is not taking Bloomberg. We have enough problems here without that jerk.

Some traditions should most definitely be revived.

That’s one.

Invited or not, I hope the clergy and faithful of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, which was destroyed in the attacks, and then had the land it stood on destroyed by the Port Authority “rebuilding” efforts, even though they don’t own it, show up in force.

Bloomberg is a secular, non-believing Jew who harbors a visceral hatred for Christians and Christianity.

I suggest that everyone (like an orderly flash mob) start sneezing on cue, and the others respond by saying “God Bless You.”

The title as always is a lie. I really get sick and tired of distorted titles of articles. The man was invited.

Someone in the audience should start singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic or something alog those lines. Get a hundred people singing... how are they going to stop that?
