If you click, you get not just Steyn, but a link from Seekrit Jew Kathy Draidle, another from scaramouche and a wickedly awesome swiped at the effete Toronto left. There are sex drugs and rock n' roll in it. OK. Sex and drugs. No rock n' roll but I'll get you a video toward the end of this rant.
Behold: A Ford, Not a Lincoln. Big Deal.
Just a sample. But you must read the whole thing.
"As I told this interviewer in Calgary
the other day, in an ideal world I would rather not have a crackhead
mayor – but on the other hand he joins a pothead national Liberal Party
leader and a cokehead Quebec separatist leader, not to mention a since
beatified Leader of Her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition caught by Toronto
police during a raid on a “happy ending” massage parlor. Such is life in
a land of long winters. "
HOWEVER:
"The notion that they’re so “over the top”
as to disqualify someone from office is deeply damaging to the very
idea of representative government. It requires that the political class
speak only within the ever tightening bounds of an effete antiseptic
“public discourse” ever more removed from the people they govern, and
ever more exclusionary of ever larger numbers of them. It turns the
rulers into a class apart."
AND FINALLY ON THE CANDIDATE THE LEFT WAS PUSHING:
"No member of Toronto’s governing class would hire Rob Ford to sit his
kids. But, for some of us, the ease with which the city’s leadership
moves from mayor to babysitter is rather more telling."
Bonus: As Eye on A Crazy world notes, most of the demonstrators against Rob Ford are white liberals. Take a look. Hey-don't they have jobs?
So in other words-Celebrate Diversity, plebes. Do as we say, not as we do.
Rob Ford's supporters are *actually* diverse.
And when I say diverse, I mean they are different colours, religions, and from different cultures and countries.
