Rob Ford's Toronto

[PinkLucy]

If he doesn't answer questions about his past behaviour he is doomed to failure with his recovery. This isn't just about him and his family, he's dragged Toronto into his dysfunctional life and dammit we want answers. There, I feel better now.

I totally agree, but since I don't think he was in any real type of rehab program for longer than a day or two, I have absolutely no confidence that he will do the right thing for himself, his family or the city.

Any predictions of what Ford's going to say?

So many are waiting with bated breath.

I'm torn. To watch, or not to watch? That is the question.

Save yourself from the blood pressure and just follow twitter.

Jerry and Amin are now standing out of the office by the velvet ropes reading the names of press members and letting them in. The rest of the members are peering from the outside looking in.

Very Studio 54.

Which media were let in?

I'll be peeking through my fingers.

I don't understand why anyone is expecting anything interesting to be said. We've been in this same situation so many times before, and each time it was the usual BS, non-answers, and staying the course for the taxpayers.

He never fails to disappoint.

Same shit, different smell.

What do you think? I would say Suarez is more mature than Ford, and Fifa has more *teeth* than city council.

Blackouts cancel memory= no guilt. The media won't get answers to past incidents or quotes from an alcoholic and they should stop trying and instead continually say, 'why don't you resign'.

I know the children will suffer from this abandonment forever.

I want to call out everyone who went in. I am disappointed in the TO media yet again. They could have all stood together in solidarity. If no one cow-towed to RF, it would have forced him to come out of his ivory tower to speak to them.
