I’m sure he’s figured out a way to justify his hypocrisy.
Via Daily Caller:
In an appearance on NBC’s “Today” show last week, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg preached “moderation” as he was explained why National Doughnut Day received the City of New York’s stamp of approval and 32-ounce sodas were marked for an outright ban.
But as long as things in moderation are OK, what does that say about Bloomberg’s role in the 96-year-old tradition known as the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest held at Coney Island in New York City every Fourth of July, which is hardly a showcase of moderation?
In 2011 Bloomberg praised the contest with flowery language (in a video he has posted on his office’s official YouTube page), suggesting it was part of the traditional Independence Day celebration, giving Americans a moment to reflect on “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
