After months of bombastic and destructive politics and 'reform' at City Hall, Rob Ford has finally been thrown out of his seat for a conflict of interest violation.

The most singularly unpleasant an disliked mayor the city has ever had, Ford refused to attend the Pride parade and made more political and personal enemies than any other mayor in the history of the City.
sic transit gloria mundi.
sic transit gloria fundie?
I wonder why he got elected in the first place... I guess people live and learn. I thought a city like Toronto would not elect a moron like this one...
Not to my knowledge. Where you have fundies, we just have knuckle-draggers.Quote:

None of us ever thought that a total moron like Ford would ever get elected as mayor either. So you can imagine the howls of despair when he ended up getting the chain of office.
It's disturbing. Did urban voters just not get out to vote?Quote:

I was curious to see the approval ratings of this douche... found an article back in late October... he has the SECOND LOWEST approval rating of all Canada's mayors.

37%... and if an election was called today... he would be voted out.
I guess people are learning... slowly.
LOL. He is second only to Gerard Tremblay who just had to resign in a corruption scandal.Quote:
