Is NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg the ‘Most Dangerous Man in America’?

Glenn Beck Ponders Whether Michael Bloomberg Is the Most Dangerous Man in America

NEW YORK, NY – MARCH 16: New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg shakes hands with members of Irish 58th infantry regiment during the 252nd annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade March 16, 2013 in New York City. The parade honors the patron saint of Ireland and was held for the first time in New York on March 17, 1762, 14 years before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Credit: Getty Images

From his crusades against ear buds, sodium levels in food donations to soup kitchens, big gulps, car idling, baby formula, alcohol, cigarettes, taxis, there may very well be no limits to what New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg seeks to regulate.

On his Monday evening broadcast, Glenn Beck blasted Bloomberg for his increasingly-intrusive Nanny State regulations intended to control just about every aspect of private citizens’ lives.

“We are just forcing you to understand,” Beck quipped before explaining why he believes the mayor’s penchant for condescending to his own constituents is unparalleled.

For Bloomberg, government’s “highest duty” is such intrusion.

According to Forbes, Bloomberg is the 13th richest person in the entire world. With a net worth of $27 billion, the New York mayor may just surpass George Soros in terms of his ability to impact people’s lives with his monetary power and act as if he is “above the law.”

According to Beck, Bloomberg tends not to practice what he preaches:

So is Bloomberg the most dangerous man in America? Beck says yes because his opinions and various crusades — for instance, gun control — are actually impacting Americans all across the country.

Beck took time to review the many ways in which one New York mayor is actually affecting the lives of people who do not live in his state. He marveled at the idea that someone “this arrogant and this rich” can actually silence millions of people.

“This is the progressive disease,” Beck said. “This is not just about Big Gulps.”

Regulation is something that, according to Bloomberg, “has to be forced.” With his crusade to enhance gun control, the mayor is even reaching people as far away as California.

Beck breaks it down below:

    Bloomberg is one of the “elite and world bankers” spoken of by David Rockefeller in 1991. They want to be as gods ruling over the lives of us serfs.

      I noticed that too. Meat head works on the hill. She/he used some quotes a while back out of a memo that was not printed for press distribution. They might even be the originator of the stratagy memos. I believe encino is a paid blogger. Either way they are democrat employees working the “social media strategy campaign” Encino might be employed by the “forward campaign” of Obama.

      It’s because of that they cannot think independently, that. Also gives them away. Run of the mill leftist tend not to stick to the script.

      I don’t want to be a conspiracy theorist, but what exactly is the connection between Bloomberg and the CDC? All of these crazy regulations from Bloomberg were first promoted and funded by the CDC through health department initiatives. The New York City health department (funded by either the State or the CDC) has picked up the crusade on each of these health issues before Bloomberg ran with it. Here’s proof from a 2009 New York City commercial:

    All part of the plan; the subversion. This is how they use the states to get you used to gov’t as “omnipotent protector and provider”.

    They introduce it in one state, get you used to the idea (Get you past the “shock”.), rinse and repeat until you are sick of whining about it, then make it law and spread it everywhere.

    It’s called collectivist rot, and it is what is destroying the US.

    Slowly, the collectivist knife turns.

    What Americans need to understand is that this will not cease until millions are dead and dying. It’s the same old murderous collectivism it’s always been, just a “new and improved” package.

      I agree with what you are saying about how the large city population control the rest of a given State. I grew up in Southwest Michigan and I never met a Liberal, yet Detroit dictated how the state was ran by its shere population. What would it take to “carve out” the big cities (500K or more population) of each state and divide each State into two States? This would drastically change the composition of the Congress, for the better.

    And in creepy news:

    Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s body was taken over by a combination of Papa Smurf and Jack the Nicholson “Joker” in a freak acid face incident whereby his face stuck into lines that were recognizable as the cartoon characters. Local people shook the New York Mayor’s hand anyway but were heard to exclaim, later, “OMG! I feel like I stared at the crypt keeper” and massive amounts of vomit had to be cleaned up by over paid union workers being paid over time by over weight New York City Clean up Crews due to the insurmountable amount of vomit in city ditches, streets and sewers. The New York Mayor has now put out a new plan via his Twitter and Facebook accounts that VOMIT will now be outlawed in New York along with cigarettes, soda, butter, bacon, candy, large dogs because of their enormous poop, buttered popcorn, and all alcohol. Although bitches, hos, and strippers will still be legal because otherwise the New York politicians will have no one to cheat on their wives with.

Bloomberg is a progressive POS control freak but the super sophisticants of NYC with their high IQ’s keep the POS in power so they’ll have to live with it. He’s paying for races throughout the country so he’s spreading his infection to other parts of new Amerika and it wouldn’t surprise me if the nut job tried to buy the oval office in 2016.

      If he kept himself in NYC, I couldn’t care less what he does. The problem is, he is spreading the disease across the country. If I recall, he has had his nose (and/or his money) in issues in Colorado and has been instrumental in turning that state even further down the libera road. Bloomberg and others like him are not content to simply screw over their own states, they are intent on destroying everyone elses’ along with their own.

      During the last election, Democrats in Utah knew full well that they had no chance of prevailing. As such, they turned their attention to Colorado and sent their money and power into the Colorado elections. As soon as Colorado is sufficiently doomed to liberalism, they will attack another state and another until the entire country is destroyed. Liberals are a disease, a cancerous, freedom-killing disease.

Secondly, Bloomberg’s overreach is legend and painful to observe, and he’s a zero in my book. Finally, you talk about the destruction of “your culture”, not only in this post, but in most others. Your culture appears to be, “hate thy neighbor”. No thanks, I’ll retain mine, which judges individuals as individuals, not by grouping people of a particular religion as a group to be,maligned, marginalized and scorned. And, don’t forget the words of the greatest rabbi of all who said, “Love thy neighbor.”

      I would like to see Soros and Bloomberg go after each other. That would be a wealth war to watch. With any luck they would just destroy each other and some fodder like Al Gore and Michael More could be used in the process. Better yet let the two little boys with their short man syndromes move back to somewhere in Eastern Europe or better yet the Middle East and start their own little Nazi experiment all over again. It would give us a great excuse to drop a couple of the big boys on them.

      Warmunger-Just because Soros and Bloomberg are Jewish does not mean his argument stands. Soros is a self-hating Jew. Here’s a quick list of Conservative Jews–Mark Levin, Matt Drudge, Breitbart (R.I.P),Svage, Ari Fleischer, Pam Geller,David Horowitz, Jonah Goldberg,Bill Kristol,Dennis Prager, Ben Schapiro, Jenifer Rubin, Charles Krauthammer…do I need to go on? Quite impressive group for only 1.9% of the populace. Lumping an entire group of people because of two misguided souls is wrong. And might I say simpleminded.
