Levy logic in support of Ford
Posted on February 8th, 2012 – Be the first to commentYou gotta love the twisted logic it requires to be a Rob Ford supporter these days. Sue-Ann Levy (thanks for the find, Sarah), is just one cautionary example.
In her article berating Councillor Karen Stintz’ and her “Gang of 23” for taking an “unprincipled stand” against Ford’s let’s shove all transit underground and out of sight philosophy. Just look at the Scarborough RT, for example, what a shambles!
Yeah, well I did my time in Scarborough and couldn’t help but notice how our crappy RT, which is above ground, compared to the rest of the TTC, large sections of which also runs above ground. Levy and Ford, though, probably wouldn’t know that. And yes, the RT is kinda famously not compatible with the rest of the subway system so making the systems link up would make sense. But that’s not what Fordo supported when he unanimously overstepped his bounds, declared Transit City dead, and pronounced that Eglinton would be getting low-floor underground trains requiring a different rail gauge — exactly like the LRT.
And besides, Sue-Ann’s got her crusties all in a bunch because it was Toronto that elected the mayor with a loud and plain voice (no doubt), of 47% of voters, while Stintz is running amok with just 23 renegade Councillors which, for some reason, is not a democratically elected, and arguably much wiser, majority (there are 44 Councillors in total).
Well, Sue-Ann, let me break it down for you: I’m sure these 24 Councillors, making up 54% of Council, collectively got way more votes than His Weightiness, and if you weren’t filled with such glaring blind spots and adoration for your rotund master, you’d realize that this is the actual voice of Toronto that this “gang” of Councillors represents. Or does the concept of representative democracy not really make sense to you?
Is this true….?
Posted on February 7th, 2012 – 3 Comments… a source told me that they saw Rob Ford snorting cocaine…
I was told that my source heard rumours about it and then walked in on Toronto’s Mayor with white powder on one nostril.
My source cannot be named but is very credible. They had zero reason to lie.
They also were too nervous to come to anyone else about about this. (Ex. big newspapers, television news channels).
*Tough cookies, Ford Nation.
** CORRECTION: The “source” mentioned is actually a secondary source who heard this information from the primary source around the dinner table (i.e. a close family member). The information is, as far as I know, still valid (still no reason to lie), but unsubstantiated and unproven.
Why Rob Ford is an outright coward but also narcissistic to the core! Toronto News: Toronto asks to opt out of Ontario Municipal Board – thestar.com

Posted on February 7th, 2012 – Be the first to commentHello all!
After a sleepless night in bed toiling over something I read yesterday, I figured I should blog about my new favourite subject– the Fordites!
What did they do this time you might be wondering (or why shud I care)… Well, lemme tell you! They seem to be of the belief that Mayor RoFo stands a chance in hell cuz he has the majority!
WOAH! (I can hear your thoughts! Creepy, huh?! heh).
Check out their math skills:
emergency transit vote called for by Karen Stinz — cllr for the TTC.
24/44 cllrs for her transit plan + for a proper vote.
The reason it needed to be voted upon is b/c RoFo never let council vote on much in the past!!!
Why not? Cuz he thinks he owns the entire city.
Reality: he won with 42% of the vote, meaning that the other % was split apart amongst the other campaigners.
But it all MUST BE TRUE because Rob Ford + his clan of idiots say so.
Yours truly,
~ SarahD ;)
