For me, it was just the shock of hearing him say "eating pussy" to the press. And then shooting off a sophomoric response after that. Its not the worst thing in the world to say, obviously. I can't explain why it shocked me. Even Anthony Weiner giving the finger to the press after his humiliating defeat and being publicly confronted by the woman whom the scandal was surrounded didn't strike me as awful. His boner became public knowledge. Anything after that was just gravy.
I think James Traficant has to be up there with the all time greats as far as unabashed looniness and corruption. If we are comparing people to other crazy celebrities, he'd be the Charles Barkley of the bunch. Sack would love him too because he is a huge anti zionist and thinks the Jews run all media. Excellent rug too. Some quotes
I think the whole bombing of Cambodia thing ought to stick to anyone. That was was kind of crossing the line. A little bit.
Anyone else kind of turned on by that woman? Just me? Ok... And just because its even more relevant...
If Ford's boner becomes public knowledge, I... I have no words to threaten what I'll do. I'll just probably die of Canadian embarrassment.
It's adorable how polite they are. "Mr. Mayor...Mr. Mayor please. Mr. Mayor please answer the question."
It wasn't so polite yesterday in council when, every time the mayor spoke, most of the council members turned their chairs around so he was speaking to their backs. Aside - the chick who broke this whole story is really hot. Spoiler
My favorite thing about Rob Ford is that he went to a Maple Leafs game, got absolutely hammered, got in a fight, and then tried to pull the Evil Twin excuse to the press and claim no, that wasn't me, it was just some other guy who looks exactly like me. Edit: apparently I had my timeline wrong, this was when he was still on city council. But the fact remains that he tried to pull a Shaggy. While we're on the topic of amusing Canadian politician trivia, did you know that the First Lady of Canada once had affairs with a member of the Rolling Stones and Ted Kennedy while her husband (Pierre Trudeau) was still in office? Or that the Canadian method of dealing with protesters is achokehold? Canadian politics is weird.
I saw a picture of Rob Fords wife. Holy hell, I wouldn't want to eat that pussy if a gun was to my head. Good on him for manning up and chowing down.
My favourite thing about our politics was the what I called the Magic Pie era, when protestors were hitting politicans they hated with cream pies. Including Cretien: on the back of the plate that hit him it said " PIE MINISTER". It's about humiliation up here, not assassination.
To be fair, he wore a fucking Argonauts jersey and cowboy boots. Its not like he's setting a precedent for decorum.
It wasn't a cabinet meeting but when I worked at IBM I went to take a piss and in the bathroom outside of a stall there was this poor dude who was standing there taking notes/dictation from a guy inside the stall who was taking a horrific shit.
We're leaving for Arlington shortly, about a three hour drive. I'm so excited to see my college friends. We're taking it easy tonight and just going to a sports bar and shooting pool and playing foosball. I know what you're all thinking. What's foosball? But Amy Red and I kicked ass in college and I'm sure we're just as good now as we were 20 years ago. All challengers accepted. Is it too early for a Wooo? Didn't think so. Woooooooo... Woooooooo... That second one was for Crown since I know how much he likes it when girls do that. You're welcome. It's going to be awesome! Have a great weekend everybody!
