The Piercing Truth

This is right from the dictionary and seems to describe Albuquerque, Berry and Schultz. Fascism (f ash ,izem) noun An authoritarian right wing system of government and/or social organization. (in general use) extreme right wing, authoritarian, chauvinistic and/or intolerant views or practices. Fascism tends to include a belief in the supremacy of one group over another, national, ethnic, especially social strata or monetarily; a contempt for democracy, an insistence on obedience to a powerful leader, and a strong demagogic approach.

Keeping the Hamsters Running On Time

You've gotta love this city... when your streets need clearing due to record snows it could take a week or more. When they promise to repeal the extension of the transportation tax it could take 4 months. But when the Petco Rodent Races (ABQ Journal - Subscription Required) are canceled due to the idiocy of the HEART ordinance... the city acts with blinding speed (ABQ Journal - Subscription Required).

Seems that if we have an issue of real urgency on the table (or on the track as the case may be) the Mayor can act with astonishing speed. Thus the Petco hamster race is a go... and we can all rest easier knowing that city will be keeping the hamsters running on time.

By the way... we're concerned about Dukes, the Mayor's constant companion during the 2005 election. We haven't seen nor heard from the 1st dog in quite a while.

Well that's just swell. After all, as Councilor Mayer states; "We're not Animal Nazis"
I really do think that the City Council should have had a say in this matter. In fact we could pull an 'all nighter' down there and then defer the matter until June.
Lets see how government works.
Big Bill's saving Cocks,
Marty's killing Prairie Dogs
and Sally's holding Hamster races.
Meanwhile the City is overun by gangsters, drug dealers, and the fifth floor of APD is spending all day covering up God knows what. Feel safe now? Or, are you like me; No confidence.

Maybe Dukes divorced him like everyone else already did or would like to?

Dukes goes home with his aides or Debra James every night, he doesn't even live with the mayor, he's just another photo op.
