I sincerely hope those 72 employees take Mr. Bloomberg to the cleaners.

Aww, how disappointing! Isn’t he the mayor who tried to ban trans fats in local restaurants??? How can one be so progressive in one arena and totally archaic in another? I never understood this mentality of politicians!

First of all this in not new. New York Magazine reported on this story 8 years ago when he suggested to an employee she have an abortion. This mayor of my city uses his money to buy the media. His approval ratings are based on fuzzy math. He has destroyed education in NYC by forcing teachers to test prep. Then he claims there is no “social promotion” yet makes it easier for students to pass classes just by showing up. He calls it “seat credit”. And when some of his own hand-picked Board of Education members disagreed with him, he had them all fired. btw, there is another discrimination suit against him—age discrimination when he warned principals not to hire experienced teachers. He practically told the residents of Astoria, Queens to suck up the heat and defended Con Edison when a blackout occurred during the worst heatwave ever. (Rudy at least blasted Con Ed and took the side of his city residents.) He told New Yorkers they were lazy because they complained about having to shovel out their cars the day after a major snowstorm and ticketed them. Those tickets were later dismissed after every NY paper blasted him. (This from a man who probably never had to shovel snow in his life.) Why didn’t Wow report on the thousands of parents who protested against him or that NYC classrooms are so overcrowded that many students don’t even have a desk or chair and have lunch at 10 in the morning? Now this man wants to be King of NYC and defy the voice of the people who voted for term limits. He is using his money and power to overthrow this law. Why, because he wasn’t chosen as McCain’s VP and he knows Patterson is a popular governor—that’s the other job he wanted. And, the media buys into his own PR rather than investigate his claims. He is not the savior of the NY economy. Any politician can cut a budget. He is just making people believe he is the Messiah.

Sue the bejesus out of him. He sounds like another mysoginistic male with an archaic attitude.

I’LL show you an angry mother!
