The Mayor Bloomberg Puzzler

Permalink | Print

Here is a puzzler for Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York City: What two things do all 15 of these mayors (and former mayors) have in common?
Mayor Patricia Christensen - Port St. Lucie, Florida
Mayor Will Wynn - Austin, Texas
Mayor Sheila Dixon - Baltimore, Maryland
Mayor Eddie Perez - Hartford, Connecticut
Mayor Gary Becker - Racine, Wisconsin
Mayor April Capone Almon - East Haven, Connecticut
Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick - Detroit, Michigan
Mayor Delle Donna - Guttenberg, New Jersey
Mayor Roosevelt F. Dorn, Inglewood, California
Mayor Frank Melton - Jackson, Mississippi
Mayor Samuel Rivera - Passaic, New Jersey
Mayor Adam Bradley, White Plains, New York
Mayor Ray Nagin, New Orleans, Louisiana
Mayor Jeremiah Healy - Jersey City, New Jersey
Mayor Larry Langford - Birmingham, Alabama


Answer: They are all criminals, and they are all members (or former members) of your "crime fighting" organization.
Note to Mayor Bloomberg: Instead of background checks on gun buyers, you ought to lobby for background checks on mayors. But "Mayors Against Illegal Mayors" doesn't have quite the same ring to it, does it?

MUNICIPALITY. The body of officers, taken collectively, belonging to a city, who are appointed to manage its affairs and defend its interests.

Using the above definition Obama is the District of Columbia as well as The United States of America.

Rahm Emanuel is Chicago.
