  2. I doubt that is true, but he is not there to be their buddy. The firemen work for him, and he works for the people of Bethlehem.

  4. Yeah, they can't stand him because he finally put an end to their overtime games by constantly calling out "sick".

  5. Firemen have nothing to bitch about. No college degree and make $90,000 a year. They sleep while they work and get paid. They work 4 days a week if they are lucky. Then they bitch when they have to go out on a medical 911 call. What a joke.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
