DTGeek's parody of a real newspaper article is golden. I would easily believe that it is the real thing.
I would love to read a real news report of Ford banning. So much better than the ongoing shenanigans.

Ford just told the media this morning's behaviour was embarassing. He wasn't talking about himself, either. Says the others were grandstanding, which seems to be his new favourite word.
It sounds like Karen Stintz was quite upset earlier. Doug jumped all over her for falling apart. What a jerk.

Rob Ford really needs to stop questioning councillors' whereabouts during the storm. Is he unaware that his brother was in Florida for more than a week?

I knew it!!!! The ITO screams "confidential informant". Thanks for the confirmation Jimmi T.
The ITO details Lisi's criminal history (p. 44). Although he's been charged five times for "marihuana", including getting caught with more than a quarter pound, he's never been convicted. In most cases the charges have simply been withdrawn. I remember at the time thinking either he's got the best lawyer ever or he's trading information for freedom. The latter seemed the more likely.

This really bugs me. RoFo seems to think that by going in front of TV cameras every chance he gets and reading off news releases means he is doing his job. Never mind that he was NOT in the chain of command and was completely out of the loop.
The thing that bugs me more is that many people who don't follow events closely seem to agree with him. Witness the bump up in his approval rating after the storm.
RoFo and DoFo are getting coverage for every little thing they say and do. I wonder what's up with that. Is is because the media catches on that readers are clicking/reading this or are they just being lazy? As someone mentioned earlier, they are getting a ton of free publicity. If the election hinges on familiarity/name recognition, then they are pulling away from the rest of the field!
I am completely disgusted!

Clearly Ford did a horrible job vetting when looking for a drug dealer. "Your nickname is 'Rat'? You're hired!".

I'm agreeing with the sentiments of fear if RoFo makes it to the election.
More than half of the folks I'm talking to plan on reelecting him. 50% because they believe in his fiscal responsibility and 50% because they think he is a rockstar.

And controversy is ratings. Ask a tough question and get blacklisted. It's in their interest to carry on as they are.

They are already ALL essentially blacklisted and played for idiots constantly. Carrying on in this climate is ridiculous.

So RoFo DoFo just vote against every motion?
That tends to be their modus operendi! (did I spell that right?)
