Shady Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 What smear ? So some guy from another party, who doesn't like Ford, and calls him a bigot is to you a "controversy" of him and his administration. That's pretty pathetic. That would be like calling the time Glenn Beck called Obama racist as an Obama and Obama administration controversy. Stay classy Michael. P.S. Michael Hardner is a bigot. Uh oh! I think Michael now has himself a controversy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 I wonder why it's ok for Stephen Harper and Rob Ford to throw around allegations of corruption without any evidence but others have to apologize when they remind people of documented incidences. Maybe it's because according to Ann Coulter, facts are so "boring". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh oh! I think Michael now has himself a controversy! Ok Shady, let's compare: I write "Toronto's Mayor - 1st Controversy" as the title, and in the first post: "Ford didn't start it, though, Glen Murray did.". You're saying I said this is his controversy. On another thread called "How Liberals argue" a lying conservative robot dominates a sniveling liberal one, and you call it a quibble. You're a quibble. Quit quibbling, quibbler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.Dancer Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Here's the controversy you all have been looking for... http://torontoist.com/2010/10/rob_fords_team_created_a_fake_twitter_account_and_this_is_it.php @QueensQuayKaren, as her self-penned Twitter bio describes her, is a "Downtown Toronto gal who likes politics, my cat Mittens, and a good book." She has a "George Smitherman for Mayor" twibbon. She also doesn't exist.Two excellent, sprawling, behind-the-scenes articles just published about Rob Ford's winning mayoral campaign, one from the Globe and the other from Maclean's, tell an identical story of Karen Philby's genesis. The Twitter account was the work of the deputy communications director of Rob Ford's campaign, Fraser Macdonald, and was created with one purpose in mind: getting the whole recording of a conversation between Dieter Doneit-Henderson and the candidate, in which Ford promised the fibromyalgia-afflicted man that he would "fucking try to find" OxyContin for him. Ford's campaign knew the Toronto Star had a copy, and feared it would all but end the race for Ford if the paper published it. So Macdonald created @QueensQuayKaren, befriended Doneit-Henderson ("@DieterDH What have you got on @robfordteam? Nothing I'd like to see more than to bring him down!"), got the recording from him, and then passed it on to the Sun's Sue-Ann Levy—who quickly wrote a typically sympathetic story headlined "Ford feels 'set up' by drug tape."

After your stand up job of defending the likes of Andrew Brietbart AND your tacit admission that a woman protestor deserved the physical assault she received last week,do you think you are in any position to call anyone else derisively "classy"?

treehugger Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 This seems more to be a Glen Murray/Liberal Party debacle....especially as it relates to Ford. Rob Ford championed many black kids and other minorities through his football teams. His teachings of discipline and dedication helped many stay out of trouble and finish school. Not surprisingly, immigrants overwhelmingly voted for Ford over Smitherman. Have Liberals learned nothing? The people are wising up to the "scary" rhetoric, the unwillingness of the "progressive" parties to listen to the people. People have had enough of the posturing of people like Murray and they are not going to take it any longer. :angry: Right on, every word is correct!

treehugger Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Ford has already started breaking his promises. Since we already know right-wingers have no problems with broken-promises, they'll have no problem with Ford upholding Miller's legacy. As he isn't mayor yet, what promises has he broken????
