Chanting 'Hell no! We won't go!' hundreds of demonstrators stormed Wall Street last night to confront New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, vowing to defend their encampment in Zuccotti Park for a 28th day.
As he dined at downtown's posh Cipriani restaurant, having endorsed a 7am clean-up of the 'unsanitary' Occupy Wall Street encampment, protesters attempted to deliver the mayor a petition with 310,000 signatures supporting the their right to remain in the park. But the mayor refused to come out of the restaurant, instead making his exit out of a back door.

Brookfield Office Properties (the Canadian real estate corporation that is apparently pushing the city government in NYC to clear Liberty Plaza of occupy wall street protesters) apparently owns or manages the skyscrapers at 53 and 75 State Street in Downtown Boston; and a member of its corporate board is also a Citibank executive named William T. Cahill. (See following link for more info about Brookfield Office Properties’s Boston portfolio)

The owners of the property suspended their request for the city to clear it for routine cleaning and said they believed they could reach an agreement with the protesters, Deputy Mayor Cas Holloway said in a statement.

He is a Wall Street Insider. His fortune was made inventing a terminal and business model which relied on Wall Street insider information to the detriment of the public. Bloomberg news increasingly relies on Wall Street insider information and has a business model where various companies pay his news service for that insider information.
He has never served his country other than as Mayor.
His demeanor is rude and arrogant.
He is a know it all without knowing much.
His demeanor and appearance is as a dwarf-like Napoleon.
Good Grief!
Perhaps you can say that he's better than Giuliani, the 911 insider, but that isn't saying much.
