People may question my morals for defending ford and might even think I am just someone with lack of intelligence, but I said it before, I prefer Bill Clinton in Power shoving Cigars up to Lewinsky's vagina and balancing the budget than having George Bush in power going to church every Sunday and ****ing not only the USA economy but the rest of the world's as well
"If elected mayor, she said, she would increase bus service during rush hour by 10 percent — at a cost of $15 million. The expense, she explained, would be to pay the extra drivers."
"But Chow offered no specifics about where she planned to find the $15 million for her proposal."
Later on News at 11:30 said she will be raising taxes to pay for the 15 million
Now add more buses to rush hour and create a few more bike lanes and let's see how well Toronto traffic will do
And it starts!!!

Clinton is not the buffoon that Ford is.. He's an embarrassment to himself, his family and Toronto....
Irrelevant to my point, It was an example of why people support FordDo you really think Rob Ford balanced the budget?
That he saved $1B dollars?
Mmmh.... are you smoking the same stuff he is smoking?
You are contradicting your first sentence with your second oneClinton, as with many men in lofty positions, was drunk with the power and took advantage of his position. He was otherwise a good President.
Ford..... Well that joke writes itself.

I am absolutely not saying that, I would love to have a second candidate I could vote for! I would love for you to show me who that candidate is?The suggestion that Toronto voters must choose Ford because nobody else can do what he's done for the city (without the side show) is crazy in my opinion and that's exactly what he wants the voters to believe.
?? So it is morally ok to cheat on your wife and lie under oath and conduct yourself in a manner that is unbecoming of the President of the United States but not ok to consume illegal substances and lie about it because you are the mayor of Toronto?Not really. In his case what he did had little bearing on anything other than his marriage.

Not you specifically, but most people here are crying because he is giving Toronto a bad name and jumping on a high horse about how immoral he is, but yet it is ok for others to do likewise things.
People! Ford does not fit with your preconceived idea of what a Mayor should be and you wouldn't like him irrelevant if the guy was an angel because he is fat and is not your white, tall slick politician ... Period
.. and that is ok but some of the arguments in here are weak sauce!
But relevant in that he exposed the city to the possibility of a compromised Chief Magistrate, by putting himself in the position of potentially being blackmailed. Doing the immoral is one thing and you're right, I'm not the sort of person who is likely to re-elect an immoral person. Doing something that is illegal is a different thing altogether. That's doing something that's typically immoral, while also having been determined to be counter to the public good. The person who does that sort of thing, while in office, is the sort of person I want out off office NOW.
*EDIT* I forgot to comment on the "lying under oath" thing. While this is a rather pointy-headed argument and ultimately the findings were counter to this, Clinton wasn't lying under oath by the rules set out by the court, itself. For purposes of those hearings the court defined having sex in the very narrow terms of actually engaging in sexual intercourse. As Clinton and Lewinsky never engaged in sexual intercourse, Clinton was actually not committing perjury. In order to find him to be committing perjury they actually had to alter the definitions, after the fact. This information is readily available, but ignored by his detractors.
