What Cities Desperately Need: Moar Rob Ford! [OregonMuse]
— Open Blogger

Mayor Ford Courts The Vitally-Challenged Vote In Toronto

OK, so the media chatter we've all heard about Rob Ford is that he's Toronto's crack-smoking, hard-drinking mayor who consorts with prostitutes and makes racist remarks.

And apparently, he's the only Canadian politician in the entire country who indulges in scandalous behavior. This is according to the American media who never seem to report on the failings of other public officials north of the border.

So it's only Ford who's guilty, right?

For more on this story, we switch you now over to our AoSHQ Canadian news correspondent, 'andycanuck' in the Great White North. Andy, what can you tell us about Toronto's controversial mayor?

"Crack mayor" is a fiscal con who has limited tax increases to the (imaginary) 1.5% inflation rate, cut spending by half a billion, ended or lowered city fees and brought city unions to heel, making him the best mayor I've known in Toronto in my adult life.

The leftist media especially the 9th-grade-level-written NYT wannabe, the Toronto Star, that was pissed off that their candidate, a married gay "ex" coke-head who lost $1-billion through incompetence trying to put the province's medical records onto a single database when he was a Liberal cabinet minister (where he was knows as Furious George by underlings over his violent temper) lost in a landslide to the not-quite-our-class-dear, overweight Rob Ford so they've been after him and his family since the day after the election.

BTW, the married gay mayoral candidate stage-managed finalization of the adoption of a black kid for the day of the election that, ha-ha, he lost; and recently his 'husband' went missing for half a day and was found wandering in a stupor (to coin a phrase) in a section of the city known for its crack houses---a story the MFM has shown surprisingly little interest in investigating. A MFM that has also been ignoring a Liberal mayor charged with massive corruption; the lesbian Liberal premier (the province's "prime minister") who is currently in a billion-dollar-plus scandal; and a Liberal former deputy minister of education for Ontario and close friend to the lesbian premier and the federal Liberal Party's leader, Justin Trudeau, who has been arrested for kiddie pr0n possession and creation

Thank you for that report, andycanuck.

So, as you can plainly see, there's a reason why the media prefers to dwell on the scandals of Rob Ford, and ignore the equally embarrassing behavior of other Canadian politicians, and it's just the reason you'd expect: he's a successful conservative whose policy decisions have improved the quality of life for Toronto's citizens.

So naturally the liberals want to see him destroyed.

More on this story here.

And thanks to 'andycanuck' for putting some knowledge to the rest of us down here in the states.

Oh, and this can be the pre-ONT open thread. I'm a giver.

29 Politics isn't a zero-sum game. The fact that Ford's opponent is just as bad as he was doesn't make Ford any more defensible. I have no doubt that there are plenty of Canadian conservatives who don't have to smoke crack and make a pass at their staffers in order to run a city.

I'm sick of this bullshit. Yes, I know that the MFM will defend liberals who do everything short of whack off in public. Doesn't make a bit of difference. Sink to their level, and they'll beat us with experience.

70 As a way to clean up our cities, I present a new (New to me) hobo recipe. Catch em, cook em, clean em in one fell swoop. Use old school charcoal lighting fluid, sneak up on your prey/dinner as they sleep in the gutter, soak with lighter fluid and flick your bic. Let em go until the lighter fluid burns away completely or it will give them a petrol taste, also stand back a bit because they tend to pop which saves you the effort of cleaning them. I recommend parsley as a garnish and valu rite to wash it down.

"It shouldn't be an issue when a non Christian doesn't attend Christmas services."

Much as I prefer my Marxists out and proud - at least they're honest - I prefer my politicians' religious stances the same way. Maybe after the midterms he'll come clean...of course he's not capable of full honesty, so he'll candidly admit in a Baba Wawa interview that he's struggled with his faith and is more agnostic than anything.

I've heard that about Piranha. But I've never heard people say "you know that fish with barbs that likes to swim up your urethra and lodge there? Yeah, they only do that every now and then." So I know what my "where to swim and where not to swim" rules are.

160 SIAP - From a retired sergeant, Chuck Wooten FB Friends, IÂ’m still mulling this Paul Ryan budget deal that stole money from every military retiree (past, present and future). This morning, upon opening my email, I noticed I had a letter from Congressman Paul RyanÂ…and it was begging me for an Â“emergency end of the year donation.Â” It only proves what we already know. The folks in Washington are indeed clueless. Instead of hitting the delete button, I decided to call Congressman Ryan out on his audacity and lack of self-awareness. I sent the following to him. IÂ’m also posting it on the FB USAF Chiefs page as an open letter to the Congressman. If youÂ’re a retiree, I will tell you we may have lost the battle, but not the war. If youÂ’re inclined and find it worthy, letÂ’s flood social media with this letter and see if we can get some traction. Thanks. To Congressman Paul Ryan Today at 8:19 AM Congressman Ryan, Please note that this request by you for a cash donation from me is extremely unfortunate and very ill-timed. You see sir, I am one of the military retirees your Â“bipartisanÂ” budget just impacted. You and every Republican (both in the House and Senate that voted to pass this travesty betrayed and broke trust with me and everyone like me. You may not know us by name, but weÂ’re the people, Congressman, who answered our NationÂ’s call, some of us at a very early age to willingly serve YOU and others LIKE YOU so you could safely attend college and pursue your personal ambitions without fear of harm. You might also want to note that for at least 20 years, my brothers-in-arms answered that call of duty EVERY SINGLE DAY, without fail, without complaint, without enough money to sustain our loved ones we had to leave behind while we DID OUR JOB in every corner of the Earth. And for that service, we were given absolute assurance our so-called retirement benefits would be protected by law. The very law you shattered in your zeal to impress your Democratic cohorts in your back room dealÂ–with the enemy. Yes, I said it. The liberal Democrats are an enemy to the American people and our Nation. Your lack of judgement and eagerness to compromise on the backs of us who protected you is sickening. Congressman, you and every Republican that voted for injuring military retirees have engaged in a complicit, sordid affair with the Democrats whoÂ’s objective has always been to dismantle the military. By climbing into their bed on this issue, you have confirmed you are absolutely no better than they and have proven it with your vote. Congressman Ryan, the audacity which you display is noteworthy, but to unceremoniously snatch earned money from a small group that has added so much more value than the paltry $6B you looked to Â“saveÂ” (which is all smoke and mirrors and you know it), is reprehensible and insulting. We have, despite the hardships, meager salaries and harsh conditions, have performed with honor and excellenceÂ…in silence, which is something most members of Congress have no idea about doing. Our job approval was, is and always be better than yours. We knew our mission and we got it done, then handed it off to a new generation in better shape than we found it. Your ability to look us in the eye, take money from us (apparently there was ZERO, other source of waste within the federal government that you could have recovered this money fromÂ…right, got it), while simultaneously holding your hand out to beg (with passion) for our cash is stunning. Your actions have proven you do not have the tremendous intellect youÂ’ve sold the American people on. I say, with all seriousness, Congressman, what you lack in intellect and spinal rigidity, you make up for in cajones. I hope you and your cowardly, Republican Â“colleaguesÂ” hear a message from me loud and clear. You will NEVER receive another cent of financial support from me. Further, if you happen to be at a Capitol Hill dinner or at a K Street cocktail party with RNC Chair Reince Priebus, Rep. Ron Barber, Sen. Jeff Flake or Sen. John McCain, I would be honored if you communicate with them that I am launching an effort to ensure NONE of you traitorous Â“representatives of the peopleÂ” ever receive another vote from a military retiree. Remove me from your contact lists. Chuck Wooten, Chief Master Sergeant, USAF (Ret)

"debauchery" you use this word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

thanks for that. hope it takes off. stumped on the deal he cut, but then again, Politico ran a piece the other day detailing the moderates and business segments work to sideline "the radicals". believe that this deal was a test of that strategy.

The term "first lady" is not used in Canada. She was just PM Trudeau's hippy-dippy wife. And still is a ditz, even today, as are her children.

Actually, "first mattress" would be more appropriate, in her case.

208 We'll see. He can always become Unitarian Universalist, for Christians who don't believe in God, but don't have the balls to say it out loud.[/] I will risk the wrath of the horde by defending the UUs. Suppose that for reasons of temperament, rigorous ideological inquiry, or being pissed off about the sect you were born into you just can't embrace the dogma of any specific denomination. The UUs give you a lot of what's good about the church experience. Preacher preaches a sermon, you stand up and sit down a few times, songs get sung. You're well dressed and sober in public on a Sunday morning. All the songs are traditional Protestant church songs. The sermons are based on the bible and encourage the congregants to be good people. It fosters a sense of community and there's coffee and donuts afterward. And in New Englad they have the best real estate. The UU came out of a schism in the Puritan church (the other half became UCC Congregationalists). All the white steeple chuches on town greens in Mew England towns quaint enough to have a town green are UU. The oldest church in the US is the Old Ship's Church in Hingham MA. There are bronze plaques naming each (i forget what the head preacher is called) in unbroken succession going back to 1644. So you get all the good Christian tradition and nobody nags you if you don't agree with their interpretation of Paul. You show up and take the good stuff. Personally, I'll take libertarian Christianity over liberation theology any day.

212 A great night I picked to go out.

There's no reason for you to care about Toronto and the MFM up here (especially as mayors here don't have alot of special powers---they're mainly just one more vote on a city council, which is why it's different to support Mayor Ford than squeaky-clean P.M. Harper) but with the U.S. MFM covering Ford and Ace once and cobs covering him in full posts here and in the sidebar several times through the MFM lens, I wanted to set you straight and there are some things that apply to or lessons for the U.S. situation.

There's also too much to go into over the past 3 years about all of this like Ford always being available to his constituents and the media hate-on for the guy but here are a few items for you.

Political assessment from a liberal source (note: one annoying but quick to close pop-up):
http://tinyurl.com/n6mbt54
...and from a conservative source:
http://tinyurl.com/mfucy9r

MFM coverage and fat, nouveau riche scion Rob Ford (expect coverage like this if Christie, even RINO Christie, is your nominee). At least watch the first 14 minutes or so...
ezralevant.com/2013/11/media-party-bias.html

Some of the same points are made here in written form if watching videos online, well, political videos at least, isn't your thing:
ezralevant.com/2013/11/people-love-mr-mayor-despite-t.html

A conservative (or libertarian-conservative) blogger [brief]:
http://tinyurl.com/k99lvga

And about the second- and third-hand reports on Ford's behavior from the same blog:
http://tinyurl.com/kw3asrs
BTW, that information is from a police warrant (called an ITO) when never in my life have I ever heard of an ITO being released to the public anywhere in Canada so much so that I had never even heard of an "ITO" before this.

Ford's political base in the suburbs continued support for him (from HuffPo oddly enough):

214 Andy Canuk, Thanks for the "Rob Ford" article. I'm actually starting to like him a bit after the 'Hit" articles on him. I don't care if he is a former crack user like Obama, or taps anything in a skirt that walks, like Clinton. He sounds like he did a good fiscal job for Toronto .
