Bloomberg Scoffs Over Classroom Overcrowdedness

At yesterday's press conference where the Mayor of Money repeatedly told reporters he is not interested in this year's mayor's race, isn't following it and won't answer any questions about it, we get this exchange:

To another scribe who asked about overcrowding in the city’s classrooms, the mayor responded with dripping sarcasm.

“Let’s just go back to when the school system was loaded with crime,” he said.

Uh, Bloomie, one thing there in that answer has nothing to do with the other.

The public school system in NYC is overcrowded as a direct result of your policies - overbuilding, rezoning, refusing to build new school buildings, charter school co-locations, closures, etc.

Too bad you don't want to take responsibility for that - or even acknowledge it.
