The public wants term limits, and while it may be that the city council has the right to override them, deliberately saying to the public “we don’t care what you think” is, I would use the word disgraceful.
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, November 22, 2005
In August 21, 2002 he said “I believe it is simply inappropriate to seek to change those rules in a manner that may work to their own advantage.”
On October 2, 2008 he said “If the council passes it, I will sign it and I plan to run for re-election.”
