not hard to believe ... the video is apparently worth 200 grand

Okay let's get off Rob Ford for a minute and ask ourselves how these people saw this video. Did some dude show up and say, "hey why don't you check this out?". He or they sure didn't send it over an email. What were these journalists doing with crack dealers? What a repetitive question that is starting to grate on me. And if it was sent via an email, how come there is no copy? And if these reporters were watching it with nobody around, how come they didn't have a good idea like pulling out their cell phone and videoing the video? Maybe they were enjoying a hit from the glass pipe, sitting in Etobicoke, watching the video and that video that I've seen of them doing just that was too expensive for me to purchase. Just produce the fucking thing or go away!

sorry ... but these are not very good questions ...

every media outlet has reported that the video was put up for sale ... the people who saw the video were to comply to certain rules ... if you actually read the story ... the people who saw the video were taken to a place in rexdale where they watched it ... it was obviously not emailed and it would be impossible to copy or videotape during the viewing ... when the video was watched - it was obviously with other people around ... what on earth would make you think drug dealers would let reporters watch it by themselves or email it?

this is the nature of dealing with drug dealers ... the video exists because of the following:

* 3 separate people saw it
* ford told his staff where it was - hence the mass walk out on him
* corroborating stories of the ford's family's connection to drugs

Can't anybody have fun anymore? It was and is a knock on the fact that nobody wanted to cough up the money yet they keep chirping about the video. Either get your hands on it or let it go away.

Like I said before.....Ford probably purchased it himself.

"Any other questions?" :?:

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic.... If not, well, I think it's not a very good idea to let something like this go away because the person in question bribed someone to make it go away. I mean, who are we going to believe?? Some reporters and some city hall staff, or Rob fucking Ford??? I'm going with the former!!

I was watching a video report and the tape was shot in Toronto's Little Mogadishu neighborhood ....

:think:

It's never a good sign when your city has a Little Mogadishu neighborhood. You should be striving for a Little Italy, perhaps even a Little Russia. :geek:

voters are stupid period ... but in his case if you get 3 or 4 candidates splitting 60% of the vote on the left and 40% of the vote on the right and he's the only candidate who represent the right ... he could win.

as for voters being stupid of course they are ... hell the corruption, the greed and wasted money in Ontario politics is just ridiculous these days ... all just vote buying ... I stay clear of the voting booths.

Remember how many people thought Sarah Palin was a good idea for vice-president?
Never underestimate the stupidity of voters, from the burbs or otherwise. :fp:

really ... the best thing for us torontonians is for him to ride his own gravy train and enter into 2014 election without any controversies ... council is running the city now and for the most part are getting along without him getting involved ... the more controversies he brings forth - the more emboldened his supporters are because at the end of the day - they see it all as some conspiracy ... :fp:

My opinion of Hulk Hogan just went down..... I wonder if he knows the deal with Ford? If he did, I doubt he would have let him win! .... Although Ford probably paid him off to do that!

All he had to do was put his full body weight on the arm. Even the Hulkster can't hold that for long. :twisted:
