"A New York judge struck down Michael Bloomberg's ban on sodas over 16 oz. So in order to reinstate the ban, Bloomberg will reclassify large drinks as assault sodas." -Jodi Miller

I think it's more like 2, remember 2 year old kids say No to everything.

I thought that until I watched Becks show last night when he exposed just how much influence and money Bloomberg is throwing around. He's out spent Soros now in his one man quest to become god of the nation.

I hope he gets hit by lightening.

Lord God Bloomberg needs to go away. What's worse is all the "elected" officials falling in behind him.

That was one of the most annoying vids I've seen in a long time. Canned laughter much. [fail][thumbdown]

NYC has huge problems with homelessness, unemployment, and crap public education. Which is of course why Bloomberg is concentrating on sugary and fatty foods.

The guy is another eccentric billionaire nutjob. The elected beverage pirate gun grabber of NYC.

What I like better is that he allowed some companies exemptions from the size limit. I wonder what that cost?

Now the little fascist is trying to go after Mexi-Coke;
http://money.msn.com/now/post--coca-cola-fights-for-its-life-in-mexico

In the U.S., Mexican-made glass bottles of Coca-Cola(KO +0.21% (http://investing.money.msn.com/investments/stock-price?symbol=KO)) have become the soft drink world's version of a delicacy -- a throwback to when the drink was made with cane sugar instead of the high-fructose corn syrup that was added to the U.S. version after the New Coke debacle of the late '80s.

With Mexico now sitting atop the United Nations' list of the world's most obese nations (http://www.fao.org/docrep/018/i3300e/i3300e.pdf), that sugary staple is now under fire. Not surprisingly, New York Mayor and soda-ban proponent Michael Bloomberg is involved.

The Wall Street Journal (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323407104579037320321621280.html?m od=WSJ_hps_MIDDLENexttoWhatsNewsFifth) reports that, this summer, a series of ads posted on buses, billboards and along subway platforms in Mexico City showed 12 heaping spoonfuls of sugar next to a roughly 20-ounce bottle of soda. The ads asked: "Would you eat 12 spoonfuls of sugar? Why do you drink soda?" El Poder del Consumidor, a public-interest group that financed the campaign, draws contributions from Bloomberg Philanthropies, the umbrella organization for Mayor Bloomberg's charitable activities.
Coke from Mexico is about the only soda I keep in the fridge. It tastes to me like Coke used to taste. It has no more sugars in it than the engineered high-fructose corn syrup that's in the US version.

This Napoleonic little busy-body apparently wants to be involved in determining every aspect of our lives...for our own good, of course.

If he makes it into the White House and we haven't revolted yet...
