I guess if you can pass a test that certifies you as a lying, cheating, meddling hypocrite, you can call yourself a Democrat.
Michelle Malkin » Mayor Bloomberg solution to obeying NY idling restriction while still keeping his SUV cool gets ‘thumbs up’ from Larry the Cable Guy (http://michellemalkin.com/2012/06/27/mayor-bloomberg-idling/)
Mayor Bloomberg wants to maintain his politically correct credentials on global warming — but hates to get into a hot car when he leaves an air conditioned building.
The solution his aides came up with could easily have doubled as a stunt on David Letterman’s show.
In full view of bemused tourists and other passers-by, workers yesterday performed what looked like a comedy routine: They hoisted a standard room air conditioner to a side window of one of the mayor’s SUVs parked in the City Hall lot to see if it would fit.
If the strange plan gets a green light, the units would be plugged into electrical outlets and cause less pollution than running the vehicles’ own A/Cs on an idling engine.
“Even with the vehicles parked in the shade, the temperatures inside can quickly rise to more than 100 degrees.”
Oh, you say you wanted hypocrisy? We got your hypocrisy right here!
Just last week Bloomberg had a reminder for elderly people not to get too overzealous about summer comfort:
When temperatures hit the high 90s a week ago, Bloomberg visited the Bronx Works senior center and called on New Yorkers to turn off “all non-essential appliances.”
“It only takes a couple of minutes to cool off a room,” he said at the time.
