Rob Ford, mayor of Toronto UPDATES

[guyser]

. You guys need some serious help.

The moment you take a reasoning course, and pass , we'll look into getting some.

So far you have failed all , except for the fun you attempt to have with this. But basically you look lpretty silly in all your denials. Sure will be fun to pie you in the mouth when the SHTF .

[Black Dog]

Anyone can report anything they want to the police. Doesn't mean it's true. You guys need some serious help.

Says the guy with evidently nothing better to do than comment on stories he hasn't read regarding a place he doesn't live.

Guess we should be focusing on really important things like THE TRUTH ABOUT BENGHAZI.

Yep, something real vs something not real. Keep looking for your video. I'm sure you'll find it with Jimmy Hoffa's body.

Sad, Shady. Really sad.

[Shady]

Sad, Shady. Really sad.

No, sad is you guys still talking about a video that doesn't exist. Anyways, I'll leave you to your religious-like faith group to continue the discussion. I'll come back in 30 pages or so to see if anything's changed. If the history of this thread is any indication, the answer will be no. Adios!

[g_bambino]

[A] video that doesn't exist.

And you know that how, again?

[On Guard for Thee]

I have a funny inkling they do have the video. Just speculation on my part but I recall the press conference with the chief Blair after just they did the raid on the two apartments of Ford's drug dealer buddies. One reporter asked if the evidence found included "the video". His response was the pat answer that those things will all be revealed through normal court procedures bla bla bla. But at hearing the question, he broke into a sort of knowing smile that seemed to me to be a bit of an "aha" moment. We shall see through the normal court proceedings.

So apparently Hulk Hogan is going to Arm Wrestle Rob Ford this weekend at Fan Expo.

Someone is going to be offended by this somehow right?

[Mighty AC]

Only, if he shows up stumbling and glassy eyed. Fortunately, the stunt is in the morning so there's a chance Ford will show up sober.

[Boges]

Ford wins! Musta been the crack.

It's nice that most of Toronto's media has nothing better to do today.

[Topaz]

So, Ford and Wynne said they had smoked pot but Wynne said she did it over 30 years ago but Ford wouldn't say when the last time he did it and the saying goes, that pot smoking leads to other drugs use.

[Rue]

Something tells me Justin has never smoked dope and just said what he did to try court

young votes. He is trying to hard. Soon he will be twerking at public events and sticking his

tongue out the side.

Trudeau is following a playbook trying to pose himself as a cool hip alternative to the bland

Stephen Harper.

Its quite simple. Stephen is vanilla ice-crea, Justin is the flavour of the moment trying to claim

he is chocolatestrawberrypeanutbutteron and on and on.

As far as I concerned its pathetic image politics.

I could give a flying phack if anyone smoked or smokes dope. Give it a rest.

The issues this nation needs to deal with are the environment and the economy.

Instead what we have is drama boy flitting about trying to be hip.

Yah drama boy-children are being gassed and you involve us in a discussion about smoking a spliff.

Give it a rest drama boy.

As for Peter McKay what a snot head. His righteous indignation about Trudeau smoking a spliff, uh yah right, like

that twat never drank himself silly in high school. Right a dude from Nova Scotia who never had a spliff or one

two any "pops" as Ford's brother calls them.

As for Wynne, I doubt she sucked on anything shaped longer that it was wider.

Jane Hathaway form the Beverley Hillbillies.

What a choice. Hudak who expects to get elected with that growth on his face causing everyone to ask how

the hell he shaves around it, Jane Hathaway, and that insipid toad of an NDP leader.

Now on the federal level, a bland fat boy selling all our resources away, a melodramatic richboy and a closet

queen constipated angry socialist elitist. What a choice.

Topaz - are you implying that Justin Trudeau might be into other drugs? I suppose it's possible but I don't think you should jump to that conclusion.

[LonJowett]

I found Ford's answer of "I smoked a lot" was refreshing and honest. Harpers answers were curiously evasive though. Rather than saying "no", he said he had asthma and asked whether he looked like he smokes pot. Why not just answer the question?

[Black Dog]

They say you can tell a lot about a man by the company he keeps.

Rob Ford staffer in alleged GO trackside tantrum

One of Mayor Rob Ford’s senior staffers is being investigated by GO Transit.

Dave Price, Ford’s director of operations and logistics, had an angry run-in with a GO station attendant in Georgetown on Aug. 27. That incident along with other incidents at the station is now under investigation by GO Transit safety officers.

Is there something in the water out in Etobicoke that makes entitled macho aresholes?

No... it is this circle of friends whom the mayor hires that is the common thread... not where they are from.

[Boges]

This is the same guy who called into his radio show telling him he did a great job.

[Black Dog]

Ford was asked about this today at a fluff press conference. His response was "It's no one's business what happens in my office."

Whattaguy. Respect for taxpayers indeed.

So he said it in regards to "personal issues." Thank you for the link, I appreciate it. I was curious as to what the context was.

No. "Personnel issues," which is quite a different thing.

[guyser]

Personnel , not personal.

Doesnt matter, the Mayor has to address this, but then again, stupid is as stupid does.

Yes, my mistake. And yes, it is a different thing.

[Black Dog]

Different things, sure. And one could make a much better argument for personal issues being off limits than personnel issues. When we're talking taxpayer money, personnel issues are very much our business.
