Rob Ford's Toronto

[JWBF]

That third generation certainly has its quirks, but they miraculously seem to have avoided the complete train wreck that is their parents and grandparents.

So far, but they are Fords.

To be fair, I'd judge by actions, not blood per se.

Small turnout eh. Haters. You lost

Projecting again.

Doug gave some kinda eulogy, strictly a political rally/brag! Goodness surely R ob was more important to the family as a brother, son, father than a political star/hero, talk about dysfunction!

Indeed! Did Doug's tribute to his brother contain a single observation or anecdote that was not about politics?

Wish more of Rob Ford's real supporters could have found their way into the church instead of the leftist hypocrites.

So has spoken the elitist!

He talked about a time Robbie bought a submarine sandwich.

Fair point. I'll change that to they are part of the Ford Family/Nation.

No. The moral of that story was Rob telling him that it wasn't a waste of his time as mayor, because he'd picked up four new supporters (and a $3.00 tip.)

Sue Ann Levy can shut her hypocritical, self-loathing mouth. Her hero Ford wouldn't have pissed on her if she was on fire when he was alive.

It's okay, in all likelihood the Sun will go under and she will move over to Rebel, in the illustrious company of Ezra et al.

Ya in reading Towhey's book the way Ford would talk to him about his legendary consist calls he knew it was just campaigning. Two third of the calls he'd make would turn out to be a waste of time, then he'd get one where he resolves a little problem and say there's 5 votes, etc. Dialing for votes instead of actually doing his job.

And as they leave the church a woman screams "You're not dead robiie...you're sleeping"

And she's still yelling.

SAL live-tweeting to the haters during the funeral...LMAO.
