With Katie Couric drawing him out, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg agreed the Times Square car bombing was likely "homegrown" as he proceeded, in an interview excerpt run on Monday's CBS Evening News, to speculate it could have been placed by "somebody with a political agenda who doesn't like the health care bill or something. It could be anything."
Could be "anything," but the first thing Bloomberg thinks of are those who don't like ObamaCare, presumably conservatives or Tea Party activists.
From part of Couric's interview with the mayor aired on the Monday, May 3 CBS Evening News:
KATIE COURIC: Law enforcement officials don't know who left the Nissan Pathfinder behind, but, at this point, the mayor believes the suspect acted alone.
MAYOR MICHAEL BLOOMBERG: If I had to guess -- 25 cents -- this would be exactly that, somebody-
COURIC TO BLOOMBERG: A home-grown?
BLOOMBERG: Home-grown, maybe a mentally deranged person or somebody with a political agenda that doesn't like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.

For God's sake it was a Nissan Pathfinder! Of course it was some lily white, over educated, under intelligent, pompous, exsanguinated metro-sexual terrorist. Kind of like Mayor Bloomberg w/o the billions or the guys America's oldest schoolgirl, Katie, used to put out for, who then would ingore her like they never met. Now that's terrorism.

I was thinking on Sunday, who would be the first to blame this on the tea party movement?

The Tea Party is the new Jew for the new Socialists. Got to scapegoat, demonize, and stereotype someone to keep the kiddies in line and feeling good about themselves.

Here's a very important update from CNN: "9mm handgun, ammunition found in vehicle Times Square bombing suspect is believed to have driven to airport."

I have noticed a few times that the phrases "mentally deranged" & "tea party" seem to easily flow from the lips of lefty elite types. I think the plan to label white, middle aged folks, who don't like government as it exists today, as fringy, nutso people, is in full swing.

Agreed Jefferson. Same for...
Racist and.... Tea Party
Nazi and.... Tea Party
Hateful and... Tea Party.
and now an attempt at:
terrorism and... Tea Party.
You'd think the media was getting its marching orders from a daily conference call from Ralm or something......

O.K., O.K. I give up. I will look at Katie Couric's colon again if she will just shut up and leave the reporting of the news to adults. And Bloomberg please go back to whatever you were doing before you got bored and used your billions to buy the mayorship.
