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.

Bill Cosby "I'm 83 and Tired" (Actually written by Robert A. Hall)

A friend sent this to us here at the Eye On Albuquerque. This has several great and valid points.  What has our City, our State and Country derogated to? Who's fault is it for this hell hole we are in?

My friends the truth hurts; it is all of our faults for voting the wrong people into office and allowing them to continue with their own agenda, un-checked and clearly un-balanced.

SIDEBAR---ADDED 10/20/13 @ 5:52 PM

We stand corrected: according to Snopes.com;


The above-reference opinion piece detailing political and social hearing about was penned by Robert A. Hall, a former Massachusetts state senator and U.S. Marine Corps veteran who is also the author of the 2005 book The Good Bits (The Marines, the Massachusetts Senate and Managing Associations). Robert Hall blogs as The Old Jarhead at tartanmarine.blogspot.com, and the piece quoted here, titled "I'm Tired," was his blog entry for 19 February 2009.
Since Bill Cosby did not write this piece; it still hold many valid points. Thanks to several readers who brought this error to our attention.

ENDSIDEBAR

Everything from Berry's plans to ruin the Bosque after the voters turn down his request to Congress and Senate spending more money than we have and creating huge debts that our children and grandchildren will die with. Ever wonder why ObamaCare is suppose to be great for us; but Congress exempted themselves from it and will continue to have their own special coverage...

I've worked hard since I was 17. Except for when I was doing my National Service, I put in 50-hour weeks, and didn't call in sick in nearly 40 years. I made a reasonable salary, but I didn't inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, it looks as though retirement was a bad idea, and I'm tired. Very tired.

I'm tired of being told that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy to earn it.

I'm tired of being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family "honor"; of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren't "believers"; Muslims burning schools for girls; Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for "adultery"; Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur'an and Shari'a law tells them to.

I'm tired of being told that out of "tolerance for other cultures" we must let Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries use our oil money to fund mosques and Madrasa Islamic schools to preach hate in Australia, New Zealand, UK, America and Canada, while no one from these countries are allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia or any other Arab country to teach love and tolerance..

I'm tired of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global warming, which no one is allowed to debate.

I'm tired of being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must help support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up their noses or stick a needle in their arm while they tried to fight it off?

I'm tired of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians of all parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or youthful mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was getting caught. I'm tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or poor.

I'm really tired of people who don't take responsibility for their lives and actions. I'm tired of hearing them blame the government, or discrimination or big-whatever for their problems.

I'm also tired and fed up with seeing young men and women in their teens and early 20's be-deck themselves in tattoos and face studs, thereby making themselves unemployable and claiming money from the Government.

Yes, I'm damn tired. But I'm also glad to be 83.. Because, mostly, I'm not going to have to see the world these people are making. I'm just sorry for my granddaughter and their children. Thank God I'm on the way out and not on the way in. There is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on! This is your chance to make a difference.

“I’m 83 and I'm tired. If you don't agree you are part of the problem!

The Eye needs to do a better job of reporting. This is embarrassing.

Next time you complain about Proctor or others remember that they at least have their facts straight. You might not like what they report but they don't print articles attributed to others.

Why do you still have Bill Cosby's name on your headline? He didn't write it and he has specifically said he has nothing to do with it.

The Eye has officially jumped the shark with this thread.

YIKES

I just lost all respect for this site. This repost is ridiculous. Think of your Christian values. Oh wait, you have none. Where is tolerance? Where is acceptance? Where is advocacy? I call bullshit!!! Your so called Christianity is nothing less than terrorism. Assault on the lesser and downtrodden....sit in your credit card debt fancy houses and cars, and rot, you pieces of s#%^!!!

Wow with all the hate and profanity spewed on this blog the only time the administrator removes a comment is when the Eye gets caught printing a LIE.

Nice job.

I'm tired of old people whining about the legacy that they left us and not taking any responsibility for it. I'm tired of those same old people exempting Christians and Jews and Catholics from atrocities perpetrated on their own people and others and getting a pass on it. And lastly I'm tired of Seniors painting everyone younger than them as lazy, no accounts. While taking their fair share off the government either by wages or pensions and then crying about how bad government is. Don't hear them bitching too much at the first of the month when the SS check comes in....

The degradation of society is happening all around us....TV's, entitlements, internet, and The Cowards. Mentally ill, guns, knives and family quarrels have been around for centuries and it never justified a death sentence.

..."Since "good cops" are as whimsical as leprechauns, It seems a possible solution would be to set-up a fund, similar to a legal fund, that would give cops salary and pension guarantees if they come forward. Just like the informants they pay (with our money) for information, but also guaranteeing their salaries and pensions.

I'd rather have that money go to a cop who can identify and testify against corruption than some drug addict giving up information about suppliers. I believe it would be a better investment of taxpayer dollars.

Cops are cowards afraid to risk loss of income. Honor itself doesn't enter the equation. Money and security is what they honor above all. A conscience, or their oaths don't register, so those such things would have to be purchased by the people..."

Since Cosby didn't write this piece why do you insist upon leaving his name in the title?

Just what we have come to expect from the Eye. "douche" and "asshole" get posted while comments regarding the authenticity of this post are deleted. No Wonder the Eye is anonymous. Who would want to claim it.

This post is a prime example of just how far this site has fallen. Why leave Bill Cosby in the headline when he's clearly and publicly said he had nothing to do with it? It was obviously posted with no research. Not impressive.

The eye has gone to crap! Please bring back Wayne and the good ol posts of 2006 until 2009! Your readership will crumble like the journals readership.

WTF is FSB?

Anonymous said...

Field
Services
Bureau

When you call 911 or get pulled over
They are also known as Patrol
They are the only ones not ridding a desk claiming to be working while out getting lunch, "talking" to informants, or working out on the clock four hours a day

350 officers and command staff on the best day to respond to the needs and emergencies of over half a million citizens

Fucked over by the Chief
Screwed by the lack of manpower
Broken by the Management that made it this bad

Anonymous said...

FSB are the only real cops /officers left in this over specialized dumbass department...out there, putting their lives, their living, breathing selves out there for the haters, the entitled, union hating, taxpayers. Jesus died for our sins as do the unappreciated men and women, rank and field officers who barely have 82 when they need it. God bless each and every officer out there every day 10-8 for you and me.
