I wonder if this is what will send him over the edge. He can lie, cheat, sell drugs, harass folks at hockey games….but no amount of alcohol consumed will insulate him from his crash and burn of the next election. He will lose and then he will probably die from alcohol poisoning:P or a car crash.
It is very difficult to be a libertarian/conservative these days. So much stupid, so little time. What really takes the cake is Sun News hopping about yesterday, pointing fingers at JT for allowing someone to take his picture on the way into a funeral, when gov’t ministers were doing the same thing INSIDE THE CHURCH! Of course, today ALL politicians are bad for doing this. What a sorry farce. Like I said, the CPC can thank it’s lucky stars JT is around to draw fire away from these unbelievable errors.
Never heard about the ministers doing it, but to be fair to the Sun, they did report Rob Ford was also seen taking pics with people outside the church. Not sure if it was before or after the service.
How does one get in touch with the Chow people? The GO relief plan is just waiting for a candidate to pick up and run with. If I read it correctly the cost to electrify Go is only 1.9 Billion. Toronto should take the money Oliva will save by cancelling the stupid Scarborough subway and give it to the province to make GO east and west where it crosses Bloor line electric by 2015. If King St banned cars during rush hour, congestion would be hurt badly.
Just get the clip where RoFo is telling the crowd? that he is just like them, then run it with the tagline “Do you want to be just like me?” A killer ad!
preaching to the faithful. The people who are convinced by the ‘just like me’ theme don’t care about crack, they want to have a hero common-folk politician who isn’t like other politicians to lead them to the promised land. Crack is a flaw, common folk have flaws. An ad like that would only get traction amongst people who already hate him.
Here’s a couple questions for anyone that wants to answer honestly: Does mayor Fatso MacCrackhead actually have a chance of winning? As a person with a few morals I would like to think Ford is toast, but I have no idea to be honest. Toronto is a zillion miles from here. And how much do you figure that event last night cost the bros Ford? We all know they pay supporters, like Doug handing out 20’s on camera last year. ~1500 people @ 20 bucks a head isn’t too steep a price, what with daddy’s company keeping the dough rolling in. Do ya think they paid more? I wonder where they corralled all these Ford Nayshuners prior to the big event? In a barn somewheres outside town then trucked to the site in cattle-cars? Was there a sudden increase in crime around the venue last night?
Seriously, all I can say is that I am baffled why smarter folks didn’t give mayor Blimpus Von Addict an ultimatum: retire or lose all support. What could possibly be gained by supporting him? At best he will be a weak mayor on a council that has zero intention of working with him. He could never do any more than he is doing now; standing athwart history yelling I’m sorry and I won’t do it again. And again and again and again… He is nothing but a gigantic liability to future Conservative electoral success everywhere else in Canada. (Pun intended)
And the internet trolls weep. Say good night crackboy!
I don’t live in Toronto and I get there infrequently but you deserve better than this fool.
The venue had 290 tables set up with 10 seats at each.
According to the Globe, CTV and Toronto Sun, about half were sold, so roughly 1,450 people were there.
Now, personally, I think that’s not too bad a turnout, BUT the optics of a half empty venue are terrible.
Should have chosen a smaller place.

which ministers. May do a column if you have evidence.

I’m annoyed, but not yet suicidal.
