    Oh, so nothing new today. Thanks.

    I've been convinced of this since the day she went to his office and later claimed that Jam-gate was "settled". The RFMG people said that she came out looking like she'd seen a ghost and that she had forgotten her purse. Since then she's gone out of her way to be with him. I mean, she went...

    Goldsbie just asked if it was Sandro. Did anyone catch it?

    Because he's doing what he loves more than anything. Campaigning.

    To be clear, you're saying that politicians handing out "walking around money" to disenfranchised citizens is a good thing? Because "Boardwalk Empire" is what we aspire to? No, the Fords practice old school machine politics that can certainly inspire loyalty and even get some things done, but is...

    Who is "he"? “He drove himself to buy coffee and donuts for all the volunteers.†Ah yes, the Grand Gesture - for which Deadbeat Dads and other assholes the world over are well known.

    Did anyone else look twice at this quote from the old Ford interview? "I have to iron out a few things with my sister."

    I imagine that there are many on this thread who are significantly more knowledgeable about such matters, so I'm putting out a request. As many of you know, the search feature on this otherwise fantastic forum really sucks. What I would really, really, really like to do is have the information...

    Every now and then, I love to look back at the early days of this thread (or rather, the original thread). Here are a couple gems from early 2011. Originally Posted by tkip Ford and his brother aren't bigots. Originally Posted by Eug I'd be shocked if anyone didn't think he was homophobic.

    I love how Amin cited "heavy security" as the reason Ford couldn't get into the Oscars. As though the entire purpose of said security wasn't to keep groupies like Ford from attending.

    I get the impression it was the former.

    I asked a friend who's on the City Hall beat why more wasn't made of Ford's racism. He said something about it happening in the past and there being more current issues. I have a lot of respect for this person, but if the mayor of a major North American city that prides itself on its...

    Super Bowl ads were $4m for 30 seconds this year. Super Bowl ads. And, Rob Ford, I watched the Super Bowl, and you are no Super Bowl. Doug would have been closer to the truth if he'd said "1.8 thousand dollars".

    As long as the focus on Ford's self-regarding behaviour, a decent chunk of the electorate is going to say "I don't care what he does in his spare time." I'm not saying I don't care that he smoked crack, but there are so many items that are higher on my priority list. Most urgently, as I...

    I really don't think enough has been made of the guns angle to this story. I'm not saying that the Fords are involved in gun trafficking, but they are probably fewer than 6 degrees of separation away from it. As for charges, frankly, what I want more than anything is for TPS to charge him...

    To the discussion about the media, I don't object to Ford being covered as a politician. I object strongly to him being covered as a celebrity. The whole bobblehead business was dreadful. And this weekend is another great example. I wish the media (read: CP24) would ask obvious questions such...

    I'm going to defer to your knowledge and experience. I am one of those rare birds who has lived in Vancouver and Toronto and loves both cities (for different reasons). From what I understand, both cities attract productions because they have a skilled workforce who can get the job done - not...
