1. No.
 As douchey as I think Bloomberg is, I think the entire "recall" movement of elections is even douchier.
I thought it was wrong when they did it to Grey Davis, and I think it would wrong to do it to Bloomberg.
Besides, I think it would be a waste of ink, since it ain't gonna happen.

Freeper troll!

For some reason, Scott Walker comes to mind...

It has about as much understanding of NYC politics as I do, and that ain't much.  I doubt that it reads the NY papers every day like I (or my wife) do, so it's probably got less of an understanding of the politics of NYC than I do.

Bloomberg, if he wants it, will be re-elected.

I've no idea whether Mayor Bloomberg is doing a good job or not, but regarding the DUmmy's question - no I wouldn't, for the same reason that he shouldn't, I'm not from New York so it's none of my business who the mayor is there.

If I lived in NYC i would want him thrown out on hiss ass, for allowing the clOWnS to be there for 2 months.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Agree with him or not, like him or not, Bloomberg is an excellent businessman.  He knows OWS is bad for business and OWS is bad for us all.  If they continue to be a thorn in the side of us all and do succeed, they will have caused way MORE harm then they ever imagined. 

Bloomberg knows we all need the stock market, we all need to go to work and continue to work.  OWS members will continue to cash SSI checks and use our tax payer money to fund their "tent events".

If anything New Yorkers are angry with Bloomberg because he took too long to do something.

It took Bloomberg almost 2 months to see how bad OWS has been for NY, and IMO he's responsible for all the other cities taking up this kook cause, if he did the 1st night what Giuliani would've done how many people would still be alive? how many people wouldn't of been raped? overdosed?

Bloomberg should probably be tried for dereliction of duty but not recalled. He shouldn't be mayor at all. He's past his term limits. But rules don't apply to Marxist or their tools.

Better yet, how many of these deadbeats would be in the hospital, or the morgue.

Just because it's called "common sense" doesn't make it all that common.

I don't blame you.  I'd want to be as far away from NYC as possible myself.

Frankly, I think recall elections are a waste of resources, and should only be held when there are issues involving criminal activity by the recalled person- Not just because the elected official in question is disliked for whatever reason.

Else instead of governing, all political leaders will end up fighting the inevitable recall because people disagree with him/her.

'Occupy' Stages 24-Hour Drum Circle

Beware of what you ask for. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg wanted Occupy Wall Street protesters out of Zuccotti Park, so he kicked them out on Monday. But now that the movement has lost its original home, where should they go? How about right outside Bloomberg's home on East 79th Street, bringing their drums and didgeridoos in all their head-bursting glory? A 24-hour-long drum circle will begin Sunday at 2 p.m. Let's see how much of a music lover Bloomberg is.

This is the free speech you've been supporting Mayor Bloomberg!

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
