Take a big gulp, New York: Hizzoner is about to give you a pop.
Nanny Bloomberg unleashes his ban on large sodas on March 12 — and there are some nasty surprises lurking for hardworking families.
Say goodbye to that 2-liter bottle of Coke with your pizza delivery, pitchers of soft drinks at your kid’s birthday party and some bottle-service mixers at your favorite nightclub.
They’d violate Mayor Bloomberg’s new rules, which prohibit eateries from serving or selling sugary drinks in containers larger than 16 ounces.
Bloomberg’s soda smackdown follows his attacks on salt, sugar, trans fat, smoking and even baby formula.

He ran off a fine deaf interpreter because she upstaged him.
He's like a fatter, shorter Obama food nazi.
Isn’t there ANYONE left in that city of idiots to stand up to this NAZI???
delivering 2-liters with pizza is a NO, but the schools force 11 year olds to take pro-sex propaganda classes
I can’t believe they’re letting this clown ban 32oz drinks and 2-liters.
New Yorkers are a bunch of panty-waist pussies with Nanny Mistresses for their leaders. Cuomo and Bloomberg should be in jail for high treason, yet they lead the masses of the antithesis of clingers of their guns or any religion. Millions upon millions of walking dead-heads.
I’m pleased that Mayor Bloomie realizes New Yorkers can’t be trusted to make common sense decisions.
I’m troubled that he thinks they should be allowed to vote in federal elections.
You know the major difference betwwen Bloomberg and God?
God doesn’t think that he’s Bloomberg.
Why March 12? Is it his birthday or something?
I think it’s time to call the environ/mentals now. A 2 liter bottle uses less plastic than 2 1 liter bottles, in fact I can count one less bottle cap in the landfill.
A friend went to a favorite restaurant last night. He said the food wasn’t that good. Told him his food was probably lacking salt sugar and fat. A squiggly light bulb went off in his head. He acknowledged his food lacked those ingredients.
God also would not support Obama!
I actually think he is worse than Obama. This guy is the lowest of low. I cannot believe how stupid he is and the people of New York City are the dumbest in the country for voting for this idiot THREE times. I hope it gets worse for them until they are only eating grass from the lawn.
A city that would willingly allow a man to impose rules like this on them and not do anything about it should be ashamed of themselves.
Maybe Bloomie’s got a 666 plan so that no man may buy or sell food to coincide with Bammy’s trip to Israel in March to divide Israel for “peace and security”?
(don’t remember what day Bammy is going to Israel, though)
“I cannot believe how stupid he is and the people of New York City are the dumbest in the country for voting for this idiot THREE times.”
I agree
Yes, if they don’t initiate a recall election it is only going to get much worse.
GET YOUR LAWS OUT OF MY BEDROOM...!
Yeah, then they jump into my drinking glass, my kitchen, my nightdresser drawer, my school, my paycheck, my church, my hospital, my internet, my telephone, my airport.
In fact libs are VERY comfortable with laws regulating alllll manner of life.
Their view is that man is good, and since institutions left to their own are bad, then it’s the duty of the law and government to regulate them enough to keep them from BECOMING bad.
Yeah, right —it’s a sure formula for speedy dystopia.
The people this affects are the same people who elected him. If they don’t like it they need to vote differently next time.
Bloomberg is living proof that no matter your height, you can always grow to be a bigger @sshole than you alrady are.
Eventually tourists and businesses are going to avoid NYC with its stupid laws. They make European cities look conservative
Bloomburqa needs to be removed
He’s a dictator pure and simple.
Very sad as Obozo’s education czar made teaching little boys to be gay a priority. The entire left is without morals.
The libs are getting what they voted for. Unfortunately, there are plenty who like it. I’m just hoping those who don’t outnumber those who do.
It will also trash more plastic into the environment. ,p.
If a Republican did this to them, they would riot in the streets. But a Democrat is doing it, so they believe it is for their own good. They will submit like good little hamsters.
Yeah but the High School needle exchange program will continue.
Let Al Qeda have NY.
Actually, I think Bloomie is a Pubbie, the successor to Giuliani.
Makes you wonder what a New York City Democrat would look like...
No more. I don't want to go there and I am sure there is some Russian, Indian or other non-English speaking person that understands American values, wisdom and business that can do the same job as me.
I used to fish in NY for salmon and steelhead.
No more. I will not travel to a state that does not allow me to carry my weapon.
The good people of NY need to either clean house or leave. It is a failed state. The bad people of NY, well, I just really don't care what happens to them.
New Yorkers = Biggest.Pussies.On.The.Planet.
No wonder the terrorists keep attacking the place. The pussies who live there will put up with anything.
This gestapo-like food and drink ban by DICKtator Bloomers hurts the small businesses a lot more than the consumers who will just find other options. Small business owners need to unite and fight this attack against these rules. Since when is soda become like an illegal substance to regulate?
No government has any right to ban the sale of anything that is not dangerous.
Ah, but it is dangerous when the government gets to define what is "dangerous."
Yes, I made a mistake there. Somehow, I can’t get it through my head that that jerk is a Republican. Or what passes for one in New York.
No worries!
The ACLU will file an Amicus Brief and clear this up right away! Jesse & Al will lead protest marches! Barbara Streisand, Joan Baez & Cher will sing in support!
(Bring a canteen to the pizza place, just in case...)
Bloomberg just needs a tax audit and someone leaking his dirty little secrets on the Internet. Hey Anonymous I heard Bloomberg wants to limit hard drives to 500MB and 8G of RAM and has set his eyes on prosecuting hackers in NYC next...: )
Yeah he’s a raging liberal with an R behind his name.
Bloomberg just needs to be followed around a few days and his eating habits documented. I bet he violates his own rules all the time. Tyrants always do.
And only 5 peperoni slivers per slice.
Reminds me of the test runs al-Qaeda would take to see what they could get away with.
Bloominidiot was a life long dem who only switched to R because there were something like 10 dems in 2001 primary and he knew there was no guarantee who could make it through the field; the R race was wide open in comparison. he bought the seat.
And he now has an “I” behind his name.
A question here: Can he ban stuff just cause he’s Mayor? Why is anyone listening to him?
Bloomberg is just another demented tyrant. Medical lobby should get him off the street ASAP.
You gets what you pay for .... seems like the NYC crowd are of the beat me, whip me ,,, group.
Thanks for info
Someone should seriously challenge him in a recall vote and run strictly on nullifying his nanny-state “laws”. They would win in a landslide.
Those who voted for Bloomberg should not be allowed 2-liter sodas anyway.
Since when does the mayor of any city get to make rules like Bloomberg has? Or the First Lady mandating school lunch menus? What is happening that people just accept whatever is dished out to then?
Wake up, NYC! Your liberty is being taken from you....and by a power hungry dictator-wanna-be!!
Great idea!
Nanny State PING!
