“Pete King’s been very helpful in getting homeland security monies for New York City. I respect him. I don’t happen to agree with him on this. And we’ve had this agreement to disagree for a long time,” said the mayor.
The hearing is set to begin on Thursday.
King has not disclosed any specific details about it or how long it will last.

Bloomberg is for the ground zero mosque too.
Of course he does.
Mike, admit it. “You’re a Muslim too.”
How can one man (Bloomberg) be so politically correct and incorrect at the same time. Let Rep King do what he has to, the decent Mulsims will understand. Terrorism has hurt them also.
If all or most bank robbers wear green jackets, the bank guard would of course concentrate on people wearing green jackets. a thousand people could be wearing green only a few of whom may be robbers, but you concentrate on the green ones and not on the ones wearing other colors. If the roof leaks, you place your pail under the leak and not all over the house in the interest of equality.
Simple logic.
as mayor he has to represent the interests of all people in the city. there are many muslims, many of them not terrorists, and some probably feeling attacked by King. we don’t really know his personal opinions, nor does it matter. it’s politics/ it’s not really his job, and anyway the hearing are still going to go forward.
This is the same mayor who REFUSED to call the potential Times Square bombing a terrorist attack and was trying to get people to think it was someone upset about ObamaCare. The man doesn’t deserve your vote!
“There is no credible evidence so far that this attack was more than at least one person, the driver. After that there is no evidence that anyone else was involved. It may be, but we can’t say that it is.
If I had to guess, twenty five cents, this would be exactly that. Homegrown maybe a mentally deranged person or someone with a political agenda that doesn’t like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.”
