Bloomberg Ad "...I led a complex, diverse city through 9/11.."

[aikoaiko]

Ooops. He wasn't mayor during 9/11.

[mopinko]

1. he was the one who cleaned up the mess.

9/11 is a much longer chunk of time in nyc that elsewhere. it smoldered for a long, long time.

[mainstreetonce]

2. Every time I hear that ad

I want to correct him.
He should say after 911.

[George II]

3. He's talking about the recovery. That's a term New Yorkers use. "September 11" didn't end....

....at 12:01 on September 12.

When he took office the rubble was still on the ground in lower Manhattan.

[aikoaiko]

7. I would be fine with "led through the aftermath of 9/11"

but "through 9/11" isn't true.

[George II]

8. Again, that's not what NEW YORKERS say. The entire period from September 11, 2001 through....

....several years after is referred to as "September 11"!

[Tom Rinaldo]

9. This is a NATIONAL ad campaign. His literal language does not convey

what you are saying that it does, except perhaps to residents of NYC, and I don't think his national ad buy has them as his target audience.

[George II]

10. I think 99% of the people who watch that ad know what he's talking about.

[Tom Rinaldo]

11. I don't, but I am fine with leaving it at we disagree on that. n/t

[bluewater]

13. Not by any New Yorkers I know, and I have family there.

This is just another deceptive ad from Bloomberg. Even Joe Biden has complained about Bloomberg's misleading ads:

4. Is it NY Billionaires (wanna be billionaires) who are such freakin liars? or is it in the water

[Butterflylady]

6. With the word (through) it isn't a lie

9-11 lasted a very long time.

[George II]

12. Yes indeed. But it's Bloomberg so people will jump on every single word, even if they skip...

...that all important "through".

[Hoyt]

5. Yeah, but he's good on Gunz and Climate.

[NedBraden]

14. Full of

Shit.

Bloomberg is a piece of garbage, he has some nerve bringing up 9/11.


When is someone going to ask him about Det Zadroga?

He accused Det Zadroga of brings junkie.

Bloomberg tried to destroy the reputation of a man that literally died for helping fellow human beings.

100s of firefighters and police officers and iron workers and other trades union members died as a result of the herculean effort to recover and rescue after the attack on 9/11/01.


Bloomberg's response at the time was to accuse, post death, one of these heroes , specifically Det. Zadroga, drug using junkie.

Bloomberg is no better than the repukes that resisted passing the ZADROGA ACT in congress.

Bloomberg literally makes me sick to my stomach. I guess as a NYer I know him better, know the real piece of shit he truly is....not the propaganda MIKE that he pretends to be in his ads.
