Sorry, Christine Quinn, and even though you're on the right side of this issue, but we proles don't particularly care for having the Wealth created by our Labor filched out of our pockets by the oligarchy. Now, I'm sure it hurts poor Mr. Bloomberg's fee-fees to be called "Pharoah Bloomberg," but he probably has enough money he can buy himself a little diversion to cheer himself up. Those of us living hand-to-mouth to support his lavish lifestyle reserve the right to call him anything we want. Name-calling is hardly in the same class of injury as starving the workers of the fruits they've earned by their labor.

How's that for an apology? I even said "Sorry" and everything.
