Bloomberg today is “Meh.” No one but a New Yorker would support the notion that the government has a right to control how many ounces of soda we the people may have in a single day. And let’s not forget that it was Bloomberg’s policy that led to black market cigarettes, which is why the NYPD murdered Eric Garner. In the context of Bloomberg, De Blasio makes perfect sense. <br /><br />I think there is a real possibility that the GOP will refuse to nominate Trump, and this will cause him to splinter off as a third party candidate. This would definitely give the election to the Democrats ... and as it so happens, I believe that this has been Trump’s plan all along. He is a conservative in the same way that Chuck Schumer is a man of integrity.<br /><br />On the up side, no matter what happens in this election —we probably deserve it.<br />Mustanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06388694472897425202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481053445293173582.post-7387352386478769882016-02-15T12:37:31.620-05:002016-02-15T12:37:31.620-05:00Well, we weren't sleeping so well anyway.Well, we weren't sleeping so well anyway.Ed Bonderenkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03724552853113809036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481053445293173582.post-58580491875089400442016-02-15T12:17:23.484-05:002016-02-15T12:17:23.484-05:00You have described a scenario that could be a nati...You have described a scenario that could be a national nightmare possibly worse than that which we've faced for the last seven years.Rev.
