Is he even a bad mayor, media never brings up that..

Quite.

Ford Nation however didn't ask for a good mayor when they went with him. They just didn't want everything they saw David Miller as representing.

I almost think that the pussy comment is a way to deflect from more serious charges and discussion.

? Maybe?
Uh yeah. That comment and "here" will be all over the news today
 
"I never ate her pussy, I have more than enough to eat at home."

Ladies and gentlemen, the mayor of the fourth largest city in North America and the economic centre of a G8 country.

Well when you put it that way, sounds like we should expect more from our elected leaders.

Also, you guys notice how he and Doug try to justify or excuse this behaviour by accusing others as not being as saintly and "Lilly white". Like WTf?

Oh yeah like you haven't smoked crack and driven drunk. I guess we all can't be perfect like you.

HOLY SHIT, HE DID SAY THAT. " I'm happily married. I've got more than enough to eat at home. Thank you very much."

The clown show continues. What an absolute embarrassment for the city, himself and to his family. I am still in complete shock how anybody can defend this guy.

Wow. So he showed up for work today in an Argos jersey. Beginning of meltdown confirmed.

Pretty sure he's just going to announce his new Sun News tv show with his brother

Sun News has about 15 viewers, so I see this as nothing more than a desperate grab for ratings.

Holy shit this guy is legendary. I had to watch the video, didn't believe he actually talked about eating pussy in a public statement. But he did. As is always the case with anything you don't think this guy would ever actually do, oh, he did. He did.

After all this, I'm starting to think Ford is invincible. It's like the majority of Toronto really doesn't care who is Mayor lol

The vast majority wants him out. It's just that theres no mechanism in place to remove him. Is not like we can run in as a mob and their him into the lake. Although I wouldn't be opposed to that...

is it unacceptable as a person to use the word pussy?

irregardless of your position in society, is the word pussy derogatory? inflammatroy? could you provide examples of such if you believe so.

He is, sadly, because SO MANY people bought into the "he saved me on my car registration tax" bullet point.

It's absolutely fasinating to see people bend over backwards for a $60 per car saving.

It's not the word pussy that's an issue, and the statement taken by itself isn't even a problem, but when addressing a throng of reporters as a political figure who's being dragged through the mud, don't counter allegations of you saying crazy shit (his statements that can't out last night in the police report) with you saying something else ridiculous. nobody asked him if he ate her pussy, but they were like "what he fuck, why are you saying this shit drunk in public as our mayor?"

It's generally considered vulgar in that context. Unbecoming of someone holding public office.

It's no different than someone saying "Oh ya, I suck lots of cock at home."

I wish I was a scrum reporter for a nonexistent publication just so I could ask ridiculous questions.


"Mayor Ford, how many pounds of greenhouse gasses per year would you estimate are pumped into the atmosphere by the crack you smoke?"

I love the new thread title so much.

And yeah, I feel really bad for his wife, especially based on the police calls to their home on domestic assault. That said, it isn't the time/place/thread to provide commentary on her appearance/attractiveness since it doesn't factor into this, really.

Fixed your quote for you.
But this shit is hilarious. Haha.

Edit: Oh, so apparently his wife and/or mom will be at this conference? Jeez.
 

She would have police evidence that he was intoxicated (on crack) is what I meant.

---

I feel so damn sorry for his wife. She probably can't even leave him because Ford, his family, his criminal connections, and most important, Ford Nation, would never let her live it down. You just don't "mess with the Fords".

Oh, this is the "I'm Sorry" speech again.

You can only give someone so many chances until you realize they just won't change, that's the thing. He has demonstrated unprofessional conduct time and time again, doesn't seem to completely understand what's good for the city and implementing appropriate projects for the city to function more efficiently, allegedly abusing his power in office, we all know about his transgression with respect to domestic abuse, and among a whole host of other issues.

I just don't know anymore.

while its important to note that it doesnt seem like he was prompted to acknowledge this particular allegation.

there is no correlation/similarity between someone saying "Oh ya, I suck lots of cock at home" randomly or a public official speaking candidly combating allegations that he feels are false.

i guess whats bothering me is the perception of him using the word pussy is unacceptable, or how the word became defined as a lewd or vulgar word when the majority of young female adults and i would wager most women refer to their own genitalia as a pussy when speaking candidly with friends.

He said live, on national TV.

A government official telling the media about pussy eating. We've hit a new low. He wasn't even asked about it, just threw it in for a laugh. The man is clearly trolling the city and all officials because he knows he can get away with it. I need to stop following this, it's too depressing.
