The Democrat-turned-Republican-turned-Independent Mayor Bloomberg is now a fan of the controversial Tea Party."It's a bunch of people getting involved in government, in politics, that is good for the country," he said Friday of the growing anti-establishment movement.
"It stirs the pot up," he said.
Tea Party activists are calling for smaller government, something Bloomberg said "everybody would like...as long as government does what you want."
Bloomberg flirted with a presidential run in 2008 as a third party candidate and has long lobbied against partisan government.
"I don't think the partisanship we have in the country is good for anybody but I do think having two sides or three sides of a debate is good. It makes you think, it makes you question," he said.
But in listen to these different voices you need to learn how to filter the extremes.
