I think he really wanted to redirect it to his house for his fries and cheese. It was all about Poutine, more and more Poutine...

But right...hi anonymous...well only time will tell. But right now everybody is laughing at Ford, and my guess is even those who were once his supporters have had enough. If somebody like Olivia Chow runs, polls show she could easily win. And that was before this latest scandal. How do you like your crow? With French fries or a salad? ;) Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-44402470352207941762012-11-28T04:56:16.690-05:002012-11-28T04:56:16.690-05:00hi anonymous...thanks...there is so much more I co...hi anonymous...thanks...there is so much more I could have said, but my posts are already too long... ;)Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-63181625353459517732012-11-28T04:55:33.136-05:002012-11-28T04:55:33.136-05:00hi bcwaterboy...he may get an extension, but I rea...hi bcwaterboy...he may get an extension, but I read the judgement and it seems just about waterproof to me.

And I'm sure that they will be running in the next election. But I'm also pretty sure that they won't get anywhere, because even many of those who voted for them now realize they made a terrible mistake....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-58493434241999313232012-11-28T04:49:50.665-05:002012-11-28T04:49:50.665-05:00hi anonymous...don't worry I don't.

I hope the Sopranos are paying attention. They are probably going to be able to pick up a few pointers on how to really run a right-wing, character-assassinating all-out bloodbath of a reinstatement campaign.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-44833515024033756752012-11-27T04:13:09.813-05:002012-11-27T04:13:09.813-05:00Do not underestimate these people.
