Advice for the Fords

[Midnight Blue]

Still feel that way, Midnight? Do "the boys" speak in public about sex acts they commit with their wives? Do they admit to driving drunk?

The part of his comments that apparently went unreported, was that the Mayor said (and I paraphrase) that, "when you bring my family into this, insult/hurt my wife and children, 'I see red.'"

He was accused of sexual acts with a lady who is his friend, accused of doing lines of cocaine in a bar, and accused of drinking and driving. Rob Ford should not have used the graphic sex language he used, and he apologized later for it. He will also be suing/taking legal action against those who made those allegations. He said he has driven after a few drinks, but that proves nothing.

What really disgusts me, are the "reporters" following his children around, naming their names, hounding/surrounding his private residence, following his mom around --- heard that there was a helicopter involved in some of this.

The public sees what is going on.



The best way to give "The Left" a middle finger, is to vote for Mayor Rob Ford,


on October 27th, 2014.



The voters will decide.

Good luck to Mr. Ford with suing all of those people who made statements to the police. It is amazing that all of these people except for Mr. Ford are lying. What are the chances? BTW, continuing to drive after drinking shows what poor judgment Mr. Ford has, especially after he has already been convicted of impaired driving. He obviously has not learned his lesson. Furthermore, his antics of yesterday show what poor impulse control that he has. Does anyone really want a mayor with poor judgment and poor impulse control among a host of other problems?

"All these people". Could be three, could be more.

Press charges. Take it to court.

Hearsay, is not evidence, unless proven in court.

Everyone is piling on.


But the courts were invented so that people couldn't be accused by "hearsay".



Anyway, I'll be turning off my computer about an hour from now, at around six this Friday evening. Got better things to do on the weekend. Probably back Sunday night, or Monday at least.


The thing is, I like Mayor Ford's policies.

Will be a shame for some of us, if he ends up leaving.


Hang in there, Robbie !


Heh, the thing is, we Conservatives aren't used to being celebrities.

Everyone complains that Prime Minister Stephen Harper is boring.


Be careful what you wish for !

I voted for his policies. And he said he will put his council attendance record up against any other member of the council. I think what really bugs many lefties, is that even with all of his foibles, he is still better and more Toronto-future, clear-sighted, than any of the rest of them.

No one mentioned his wife until Rob Ford mentioned her, in the crudest way possible. The only mention of his kids was in a police report that described his loyal assistants sensibly taking the kids to McDonald's to get them away from their horribly plastered father, after they were driven to a ball by an accused drug dealer. But yeah, I guess there was justification for "seeing red."

And by the way, everything the mayor said, including the quote above, was widely and completely reported.

Press charges. Take it to court.

"Pressing charges" is not a description of filing a civil suit, but I assume that's what you mean. Do you not find it interesting that Mayor Ford never filed suit against any of the media at any point in the past six months? If there was no truth to what was being reported, why didn't he file a libel suit? Perhaps because the truth would in fact be tested in court? We shall see if he follows through with this threat to sue three former aides and a bar server. I know what I'm betting on that.

Ka' Pla !

Will he also put his work attendance record up against the other councillors? Or are councillors only judged by meeting attendance? I'd like to think a mayor would typically be at work more than 11 to 3 most days, and wouldn't miss important council meetings to coach football. But maybe that's just being all lefty.

[Wobbler]

I voted for his policies.

There's certainly nothing wrong with that.

At this point, however, Ford is *toxic*. Not only will he be unable to promote any policies going forward, he makes them seem less wise by association. If Toronto elects another "Joe six-pack" mayor in this decade I'll be very surprised.

[LLB997]

I'll say one thing about Rob Ford. He managed to get New York City DJ's to discuss the Argonauts on the radio today . They basically gave listeners a CFL/Argos 101 because of the Jersey he wore.

[1argoholic]

Midnight why are you so into politics? Why is it all Right vs. Left? To me politics is one step up from crap. Lowest of the low. I do vote thus giving myself the right to ArgodomeArgodomeArgodomeArgodomeArgodome and complain because I do it so well but really I don't feel that politians as a whole give a crap about anything but a great pension.
If I voted for Ford or not I would still believe that he's a butt plug. He's a filthy man who has slung so much BS that it floors me that anyone can believe or back this Richard. He can blow smoke about taking people to court but that will go nowhere. He's a waste of air, plain and simple. I'm not into religion as I've mentioned but Karma will come back to kick his huge ass. Poor Karma.

[Will]

I think the Fords genuinely believe it is still about politics. I've disavowed myself of that notion.

Paul ... if someone were to accuse me of hanging out with prostitutes, I would consider it a direct insult to my Girlfriend or Wife.

My Girlfriend would be insulted, and probably hurt, and I would be insulted. And extremely pissed off.

I suspect other men feel the same way.

1Argoholic ... I'm into politics because I like to have a say in my future.

I like the fact that this whole forum generally stays away from politics. Sure, there has been light-hearted kidding and joking in the past, but when people start to attack Mayor Rob Ford in the media, it is mostly all about politics, in my opinion. They can't hold a candle to Mayor Ford's policies, so they go after his personal life. And when this spills over onto this forum, then I will at least speak out in his defence. Yes, he has effed up, but like he said, all he can do is apologize.

And he said he would have stepped down, after all of the embarrassment he has caused, except for all of the voters who elected him for his policies. That would be me. And others.

Anyway, we all only get one vote, and I discovered a long time ago, that it is generally a complete waste of time, trying to argue politics with your opponents.

On election day, the voters will decide.



PS --- Rob and Doug Ford will be on Sun News Network tonight (Monday) at 8:00 PM EST. It will be a regular Monday night show, at least until the election is officially called, which is on Jan.2, with the actual election day being October 27th. Should be fun.

My girlfriend or wife would be insulted and hurt if I told the world what type of sex we engaged in. But I guess that was justified?

[1argoholic]

Why stick up for a total dick when everything he says comes back as a pack of BS. He now has admitted to sucking on a crack pipe and drinking and driving. Like I believe he hasn't gotten down and dirty with hookers. This states plenty about the folks who voted for him and can't admit in making a huge mistake. A few voters must be much more intelligent than the rest of the world who are all laughing bigtime at the Ford Fools. I hope the guy who tossed beer at Rob yesterday strained it though his kidneys first.

Poster of two buttplugs nice.

[ArgoRavi]

Oh, the great Ford defence: I have done awful things but others have too. BTW, how is it Wynne's fault that her top advisor is charged with possessing child pornography? Ford, on the other hand, spends time with known criminals. He has even fed that criminal behaviour by buying drugs from these people - something that he has admitted to - but that is something that the Sun News ad fails to mention.

[1argoholic]

When did Toronto become such a classless city. It used to be a city with very low crime rates and great people with a good perspective on life and what is wrong and right. Now it has a total clown as a mayor who is a criminal but continues to have all kinds of support even though all of this news has come out. This is not a sports team that needs support during a tough time. This is a guy who's supposed to be the strong leader of your city. Instead he's a rightoff that's tarnishing Toronto's image all over the world. Do you honestly think those few tax dollars he's saving Torontonians will do anything when tourists pick cities like Vancouver to travel to and spend their hard earned money. I was born in Toronto and at this point have no use for making the 2 hour trip in. I don't care to be in that city and near a bunch of very short sighted people who can't see the forest through the trees. This isn't one party against another it's about doing what is right and having this clown as mayor is a farce. Toronto has become a joke. I have to admit I find the ripping of the Ford Twins to be very funny. I however think the strong supporters of this clown duo need to give their heads a huge shake and that is what really pisses me off.

If you're referring to me I'm not a Ford supporter. I think that he should step down. However I find the double standard ridiculous. Kathleen Wynne has done much worse things than Rob Ford and she gets a free pass from the media.

I wasn't talking about you, Neely, but about Sun News. I do see however that they have already cancelled the Fords' show after only one horrible episode.

[Midnight Blue]

Not surprisingly, I liked the one-episode show. Was surprised to recently hear that Sun News cancelled it, but in retrospect, the Fords said what they wanted to say. Next week's episode would have been redundant, unless some new "revelations" came out. But I've read they (the Fords) will be guests on other Sun News shows.

Of course, Ezra Levant's show "The Source" (on Sun News) is the best. And no doubt one or two people on this planet, may have recorded the Fords' show, so it should probably be available somewhere on the internet.

And it has just occurred to me, that Mayor Rob Ford may be part Klingon.


This would explain everything.

No, seriously. It would.


Not excusing his eff-ups, but I can certainly understand.



Ka' Pla !

[OV Argo]

Always a pleasure to surprise you OV, Sir.

Yes, we Conservatives (and conservatives) like to party!


The tradition goes way back to Sir John Alexander MacDonald.

The first Prime Minister of Canada. A Conservative, of course.


Cheers !

Well then - to each his own.

Conservatism (small or big C) is IMO a blight/sickness on our society as it is now run & maintained; a sort of bottom line fascism that worships the dollar sign that colors most decisions; it is the mantra of the silver-spoon fed elites, banks and corporations who call too many shots in their quest for more profit$ and it is maintained/supported by many establishment dupes & sycophants in the media. Bleed & gouge the average person in pursuit of more profit. Rob Ford is a classic conservative representative - a spoiled brat little rich kid who poses as some sort of champion of the "little guy" - I'll cut taxes and take on all the socialists and lefties - what a frickin' joke ! Maybe Stevie-boy Harper can name Mr. Ford to the Senate now?

But - sickness can be cured, sir.

Cheers !

Some of us just want less taxes, less government, and less nanny-statism in our lives.

Most "businesses" are not huge corporations; just regular people, trying to make a living....


Cheers, and Ka' Pla !
