Bloomberg Slams 2 Party System

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2008 Election, General Politics

Who knows if he’ll run for President and who knows if anybody will be willing to vote for him…but he’s certainly singing a very interesting tune.

From USA Today:

Bloomberg, who left the GOP and is asked almost daily about running for president, said Wednesday that neither the Republican nor Democratic Party “stands for anything.”

“There isn’t any philosophy” for either party, he said after a speech on improving public schools.

Bloomberg has repeatedly expressed frustration with Congress, saying lawmakers favor partisanship over progress and have failed to deal with immigration, health care or education.

“Party discipline requires you to make decisions based on what’s good for the party rather than what the merits are of the piece of legislation before you,” he said.

Bravo Michael.

By the way, you’re not running for President…no…not at all…
