Bloomberg booed at annual St. Patrick’s Parade in storm-ravaged Rockaways
New York Post ^ | 3/3/13 | KEVIN SHEEHAN and KATE BRIQUELET

Mayor Bloomberg was booed yesterday as he walked in the annual St. Patrick’s Parade in the hurricane-ravaged Rockaways.

The jeers grew so loud toward the end of the Queens parade that mayoral candidate and City Council Speaker Christine Quinn appeared to break away from the mayor to march separately.

A spokesman for Quinn later said she always intended to walk separately from the mayor.

Locals didn’t spare their ire over the area’s slow recovery, hoisting signs reading, “Mr. Mayor, we need jetties” and “Listen to the Rockaways.”

“We’ve been dying down here, up to our ears in muck trying to rebuild, get back to a regular life,” one heckler told The Post.

You mean napolean bloombergapart? Little runt needs a swift kick in the butt. All he needs is the hat and his hand in his jacket.

While he certainly should be booed, he's being booed for the wrong reasons.

These people are booing him for not committing enough government intervention and taxpayer funding to their own particular cause.

I'd be booing him for his continued sticking of his big government nose into places it doesn't belong.

Wonder if Bloomie is beginning to fear a tar and feather moment. There was a time when it would have already been done. Inspite of his body guards.

I have been told those folks in Upstate NY despise him bad enough to do the job.

Is it Iime? Time for House on Unamerican Activities II? In my reasoning, it is.

The Commie Dems are so brazen they no longer hide it. We shall see how that plays out.

I can tell you here in Texas, it will not play out well for them.

Too bad it wasn’t HIM that got swallowed up by the sinkhole. Would have solved a lot of problems, and saved a whole heap of money, too.

Doesn’t sound like they were booing him for his liberalism.

Bloomer couldn’t care less about the few that booed him. He knows that, should there be elections tomorrow, that he would be the winner again.

Roger that. Do they have sink holes in NY? Maybe he should put a plan in place to limit the size of sink holes. Perhaps 16oz?

I’m sure there must be some sinkholes in NY state. Or, they could dangle him off a line off Montauk Point. Here sharkey-sharkey, here sharkey-sharkey. I’m sure that many people would help to spring for the seal-suit, too. Little satan, who has ruined so many innocent peoples’ lives.

So he got the Ceaucesceu treatment? Good.

Christie Kreme deserves the same.

I can’t describe how angry I am at that slob.
