Our Mayor

“honest, he’s truthful, he’s like Julian Fantino — what you see is what you get,” he said, referring to the former OPP commissioner. "As far as I’m concerned you can put that in your pipe you left-wing kooks.”

Ooopps, wrong pipe.

This is a stinky mess.

I don't trust Ford because he is a politician and I don't trust the Star either.

There are times where legal action isn't worth persuing because the defendant ability to pay and there are other times where legal action isn't worth persuing because the defendant buys ink by the barrel and can outspend you with lawyers and tie you up forever in court.

Lady Justice is often shown as blindfolded. It's suppose to represent her impartiality and lack of prejudice. Personally I often think it represents just the opposite.

Then there is the photo with two men, one of whom is now dead and both were drug dealers.......and not just a casual hello photo taken on the street by two admirers but a photo of Ford in 'very casual' clothes with his arms around the men and looking unfortunately like he is partying with them. 

I'M gonna be RICH I tell you!

I'm gonna to invent a computer program where you can "doctor" up photo's. Put people in them, take people out,create the face of god over the dust of the twin towers,show 2 trains crashing, maybe even be able to make a city sign look like it has extra words!

I'm going to call it PHOTO SHOP!!

now nobody steal my idea while i work on the programing and patent!!!

funny how all these people know exactly where the tape is but the police can't find it. Also 3 reporters report how they sat in  a car with the person who took this video and yet the police who are looking for people involved have NOT bothered to question the 3 people who sat FACE TO FACE with the owner--hmmmmmm  that is just real SLOPPY police work!!!

We live in a free country.

You have the right to believe in Ford, you have the right to believe in Harper, you have the right to believe in Hudak.

The fact you are in minority should not prevent you from thinking the way you do.  That is your right. Keep believing in Ford, Hudak and Harper.

first not sure where Hudak came into the picture as I (ME) have NEVER mentioned him

SECOND_ I beleive in FACTS and once the whole story comes out then and ONLY then will I make a ruling. Never meet Ford never said I SUPPORT Ford have only said I will wait for the facts. The facts that someone says there is a picture in a Thread where there is CLEARLY a picture of a Toronto sign that is DOCTORED by photo shop and yet standsby this "photo"

especially when the police havesaidthey are LOOKING for this video and yet all these people have seen this video (including 3 that have sat in a car with the owner-so know full well what the owner looks like and what kind of car he drives) and yet only "certain" people have been interview by police??

AGAIN--I will wait for all the facts!

[pierrelebel]

"I will wait for all the facts!"

Fact # 1: Mayor Ford told some of his staff the exact address where the video was located

Fact # 2: A week later, Mayor Ford told a radio show the video did not exist.

You can draw your own conclusion. Most open minded (non partisan) readers have.

[ilurkthereforiam]

Pierre. Your facts are coming from un-named sources.

I would not call them facts.

[pierrelebel]

"un-named sources" ???

Did you not see Ford on TV?

[ilurkthereforiam]

No I don't watch the news much in the summer.

Did he say that?

I listen to the radio and didn't hear him say it.

[ilurkthereforiam]

I did hear what his brother said to Wynne.

[ilurkthereforiam]

Apparantley he hired 4 new staffers over the weekend.

Anyone looking for a job should send in a resume.

LOL!

49% believe Ford is telling the truth

http://www.newstalk1010.com/News/localnews/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10552077 

OK - that makes sense in Toronto

On the other hand only 13% of Canadians believe Harper is telling the truth.

WOW !  Think about it.  Ford has much more, nearly four times more credibility than Harper. 😉

Only in Canada, eh!

[prior-of-verity*shake-hands-with-your-devil]

Ford is history in TO.

The poll was ........'did Ford use cocaine'......and even I'm not sure about that. However add the cocaine to everything else in Ford's long arrogance and bullyisms.......and it would be a whole different poll response.

[ilurkthereforiam]

If 49% believe him that means he could get elected tomorow.

The 51% that don't believe him didn't vote for him.

He can win with less than 51% if the 49% believe that the maggots are trying to manipulate the electoral process.

[prior-of-verity*shake-hands-with-your-devil]

The poll was asking the question if they thought he did cocaine. If the poll was asking "would you vote for him again".....the % of ''no'' might be a lot higher. That's not factoring in who would run against him.  

[pierrelebel]

"If 49% believe him that means he could get elected tomorow"

Another interesting Conservative "spin".  You guys never cease to amaze me.

I believe Ford tells the truth when he claims he does not smoke crack.  If I live in Toronto, does this suggest ! would vote for him?  NO. While maky may believe his claim of not cmoking crack it has little to do with voting for him as mayor of Toronto.

Using your "logic" that 49% of folks believing in one guy telling the truth should get him elected. what does it mean for Harper when only 13% believe his side of the story? 🙂

I still think Harper will not lose the next federal election because he will not run.  Facing certain defeat, he will resign before the election and let someone else take the loss.

My guess is that the 49% are people who would vote for him and they are tired of the attacks by the media, especially the Star.

When he talks to the media he talks to everyone except Star reporters.

[pierrelebel]

" 49% are people who would vote for him"

Keep spinning.

There is NO poll anywhere suggesting 49% of people would vote for him. Far from it.
