That sort of casual waste of wealth should be an insult to the class envy folks, but instead they will celebrate this guy.
Well, it's not as if he just threw that money into an incinerator.

Well, he DID say during a debate appearance that he was giving away his money. He just didn't specify how.
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

StlheadNo he did not throw it into an incinerator, he gave most of it to the TV networks and Google. He might as well have burned it to heat one of his mansions for all the good that does anyone.

clipper1FWIW, I think he will begin concentrating his mega $ spending on fouling State and Local elections. He is a sneaky sob!

It does the propaganda arm of the DNC (the media) a lot of good for their bottom lines.

1967GoatAs with most of you I'm sure, we've been inundated with Bloomberg ads. Every time time one of his ads come on I make some comment about him being a gun grabber. My wife took my 2 boys to Great Wolf Lodge this past weekend (I had other stuff to do so I stayed home). Wife made a comment last night..when ever a mini-Mike ad came on, my boys would make a comment..."Oh, there's the gun grabber." I kinda felt a tingle go up my leg.
AMF!

It’s Mini Mike - the doorknob might hit his head on the way out!

I certainly hope so.
May they be swept up by the "red wave" in the next election cycle.

He wanted that nomination, but he came up a little short.

downtownvLooking at all the Black people he has in his ads, I liken him to a plantation owner bought and paid for people.
His stop n'frisk record shows the real side of him.

Yeah, the American people gave him a look, but he just didn't quite measure up.
