New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg might consider checking out the polls. He's under the impression 100 percent of 9/11 families support building the Ground Zero Mosque at the current planned location.
"The family members, they do care," Bloomberg told "The Daily Show" host Jon Stewart Aug. 26. "And the family members that I've talked to - and I'm chairman of the board of the World Trade Center Memorial - 100 percent in favor of saying, ‘These people, if they want to build a mosque, can build a mosque. The lives of our loved ones were taken because the right to build a mosque or say what you want to say was so threatening to people.'"
Even Stewart, who takes Bloomberg's side in supporting the mosque and has mocked opponents in several episodes of the hit comedy news program, couldn't let Bloomberg's exaggeration go unchecked.
"I think the difficulty always is, unfortunately, I'm sure there are veterans who fought over there who feel we shouldn't," Stewart said. "I'm sure there are family members, maybe you haven't heard of them, who feel we shouldn't."

Bloomberg isn’t fit to be a Jew!

Either this man is completely insane or just an evil simpleton seeking to further his fortune, or both!
In any case, he needs to be removed from office Pronto!
Bloomberg, had he lived in a Nazi concentration camp, would have eagerly served a a sonnencommando.
Lying trash.
How much did the imam pay Bloombutt?
That's something to tout. 10 years later and there's nothing but a hole. The lack of progress is glaring. If this guy was a project manager on my staff, I'd have fired him 8 years ago.
Oh. Wait a minute. Salt is illegal in New York.

lol who tells bloomie this crap..is he channeling ala.
I think that is pretty close... and the real reason....lining his own pockets. He could give a hoot about 911 families. The libs say that they need to get over 911 and move on... get counseling... fogetaboudit. He and all libs needs to be recalled or voted out ...and pronto...
where deals are made.
Bloomburg is a POS.
