If Torontonians re-elect this guy they'll be no better than than the electorate of Washington DC was for having re-elected Mayor Marion Barry after his crack bust.
I have to admit, though, Mayor Ford does sound like a party. And he'd be a lot less boring than whoever his opponent turns out to be.

Hi John--It seems like being morbidly obese bodes well for success in politics. Well, Chris Christy and now this guy anyway. There's something disarming and lovable about someone so pathetic looking-kind of like an ugly dog, one so ugly that it's cute like a pug or bulldog. Sort of like the previous article wherein people's public foibles garners sympathy and compassion. Everyone has a dark side and it must put people at ease to see other folks vulnerabilities. Thanks, Brian
At least DC residents had an excuse with Barry. I doubt Torontinos would reelect their mayor "cuz he white, an the Man tryin keep him down".

That's a good point, hadn't thought of that, but it does seem to be true, there is something nonthreatening about a Chris Farley type that people respond to.
Forgive my language John...but Toronto is the rectum of Canada. And, believe it or not, Ford is the best Mayor that hive of scum and villainy can produce. Ford is literally orders of magnitude MORE competent and honest than the men that preceded him. I'm not joking, either. Ford on crack, with his face buried in some whore's lady-parts - is a better man than any of his recent predecessors. He is by no means the worst of that city's leaders either.
This latest scandal is one of the few legitimate ones the leftwing press has managed to sell. Recently they had some ugly moron of a woman with a hair-do like Sideshow Bob complaining that Ford grabbed her ugly fat arse. Then he didn't properly dot an 'i' or cross a 't' on some charity work he did and they were screaming about misappropriation of city funds or something.
Don't get me wrong but believe me...this guy is by no means the worst that city of morons can produce. In fact, most of the morons in Tranna that are howling for Ford's blood will smile indulgently at Justin Turdeau as he admits to smoking pot - and wanting to be our next prime minister!
Trust me - once Tranna disposes of Ford, they will replace him with some lesbian two spirited transgendered nitwit, and the press will go back to covering the scandals up rather than exposing them.

You obviously know more about Toronto than I do, and I completely agree about how the mainstream media cover up left wing scandals while ferreting out conservative ones. But I have a theory about people who smoke crack, even just a few times: their brains have been damaged, just like those of long-term alcoholics.
Ford is simply not a good advertisement for conservatism.
That is because he is not a conservative, John.
Toronto is a strange place. When you get that many stupid people in one spot, the very fabric of space-time and reality begins to warp. The resulting political landscape is so toxic that if a normal man of conservative nature like you or I were to rise to power...he would get torn to shreds by hordes of union/welfare slobs, gay hipsters, angry feminists, militant environmentalists and other turd brains that coagulate in that fetid dump of a city.
Only the most skilled narcissists and psychopaths could survive an environment like that.
John are narcissists born, or are they made? If it is possible to make them I would suggest that the environment Ford lives in would be a perfect place to manufacture them. I know that if I had to work with the cretins that Ford does - I would probably be smoking crack too in short order.

I'll defer to you on Toronto.
It seems to be that narcissists are made, but very early in life. I think it has to do with not getting enough attention from one's parents on the one hand, or possibly be spoiled by one's parents on the other. (Sometimes the two go hand in hand.)
Toronto's mayor, Rob Ford (I had never heard of him pre-news stories about him) is definitely not a boring guy, somewhat entertaining. He seems to be incredibly hyperactive. I felt sorry for his wife, at the news conference that she attended with her hubby, standing by his side, looking embarrassed, like she wanted to sink into the floor. The woman would have done well to tell her hubby that he was on his own, that there was no way in _ell that she would appear before the media, supporting any of his lunatic ways.

I"d never heard of him either.
By the way, you're allowed to swear on this blog, I won't censor you. (I wrote a post about that not too long ago, "Punctuation marks for the dainty".)
This guy Ford has graduated to the point where there is nothing I would be surprised to hear about him now.
Ford is drinking with Girls scouts??? sure why am i not surprised....
Ford dropped his pants at a hockey game? of course he did...
But it takes a concerted effort to get this sort of status and total acceptance of virtually any behaviour. Mike Tyson maybe had the highest caliber of ability to do astonishing things that would not surprise people in the least.Ford is rallying hard to catch up...

Wow, hadn't heard of those things. It does almost seem that there's something organically wrong with him. It's weird, he not only looks like Chris Farley, he has that same problem about being an addictive personality who can't seem to stop partying. Mike Tyson has actually come out recently and admitted that he is an addict.
