Mr. Bloomberg, who steps down on Dec. 31 after 12 years at City Hall, was playing golf Sunday at Bermuda’s majestic Mid Ocean golf club, a person who spotted the mayor said. The Metro-North Railroad train derailment — killing four people and injuring more than 60 others — occurred at roughly 7:20 a.m. New York time.
Mr. Bloomberg was golfing in the early morning and did not leave the course until roughly 1 p.m, the person said. Bermuda is one hour ahead of New York time.

Probably had money on the line. Him getting on a plane wasnt going to clean up them bodies any faster.

Hes really gotta work on that swing though. Hes not swinging all the way through with that lazy feminine posture he has there.

he has people under him to handle situations, sounds like a fake outrage case to me

not like it was an attack, like bush's antics on 9-11 :scusthov:

or should i say acting :skip:

are we still at a point where these trains can't drive themselves yet? I'm sure there is a software that can control the whole grid and calculate the right speeds necessary, you can still have an engineer on hand to override any possible malfunctions or to override when necessary

Are you okay with spending your tax dollars on it though?
