Mayor Bloomberg: Unsafe For Children

Maybe he meant Mike Huckabee*:

At a press conference in the Bronx to announce the opening of a new Home Depot store, Michael Bloomberg was [p]resented with the company’s trademark orange apron, but declined to put on a pair of safety goggles, saying, “The last guy to put on a pair was Dukakis.” (Close enough?)

Bloomberg was offered the goggles by a Home Depot manager as the mayor and other officials used a small electric saw to cut a piece of wood (the Home Depot version of a ribbon-cutting ceremony).

*As in. Because he certainly didn’t mean President Obama, who looks cool in his safety goggles. (Then again, candidates refusing to compromise their coolness by taking proper safety precautions seems to have a long history.)
