Self-righteous nag Michael Bloomberg is spending taxpayer money to protect New Yorkers from their lunch yet again...

The mayor allegedly said that Mr. Obama was the most “arrogant man” he had ever met, according to Mr. Murdoch — that despite having been invited to play golf with the president on Martha’s Vineyard this summer...
Bloomberg may be a bit of an odd duck... but he surely knows people -and arrogance- when he sees it. And just consider the strength of that statement: how many people do you think this billionaire/celebrity/mayor has met over the last 50 years...?
