The ever-articulate Honourable Wife-Beater on conflict-of-interest allegations:

Ruby is “going to cross-examine me and they want me out of office, and if I lose the court case I guess I lose my job and, uh, I don’t know, it really bothers me, it really bothers me, so just hope for the best,” he said.

The best is Ford losing his job.

And then getting run out of town. With pitchforks. Yes. This would make me very happy indeed.

We know lots of people. We could scrounge up an angry mob. I just need to buy a pitchfork.

Ooh, that would be fantastic! I think I'd book a flight to Canada to see Rob Ford chased out of town by an angry pitchfork-wielding mob. (Or indeed to be part of such a mob).

Sadly, I've been reading that he might keep his job if it turns out that he was merely ignorant of the law he was violating. And the one thing I think he's good at is being ignorant of stuff.

WWhat ever happened to "Ignorance of the law is no excuse"?

He seems unusually dejected. Maybe he wouldn't mind losing the job, maybe he realized, "being a mayor is HARD!"

Oh my god. I am sending the best for you guys.

(One of) My favorites from the article "The foundation does a good job... You want ME to pay it out of MY pocket? That's not fair."

So, you're saying the foundation you supposedly believe in so much is something you don't actually want to give money to? I'm not phrasing that right, but I hope you get the idea of what I'm getting at. Gotta finish getting ready for work, but daaaaaaaaaaang!

I dunno; we thought we were getting that with O'Brien but it never really worked out. He seemed to think the court case being inconclusive was a huge vindication for him.
