Wow, just watched the Ford-SNL... that's terrible. The man gives you so so much material and that's all they come up with? Big let down.

Yeah, it's like they spent all of 5 minutes writing that shit. And to try to get laughs with "Eh" and "Aboot" with this scandal and all the material Ford has given them? Just lazy. It was humorous in 1999 with the South Park movie.

I wasn't even aware, does 60 Minutes have that reputation? Or was that just a chance for NBC to take a dig @ a popular CBS program? It seemed strange that was thrown in a Ford sketch.
 
Bullshit man. You are seriously clueless about what the problems with the site really are. As I said, you're all apologists. It's sad.

Maybe if you did some REAL research on what the issues with applications are you'd sound more intelligent. DDoS would explain the early on site access trouble,. That isn't occurring right now, nor for the past few weeks, but the applications cannot be processed due to the verification system used to verify the applicants income (for breaks on their premium), ID (to ensure they are who they say they are) etc. The links between agencies and the healthcare.gov system has not worked from day one and has NOTHING to do with your dastardly pro-republican hackers DDoSing (which I also question the validity of).

You really are ****ing clueless. As you like to mock, I have been monitoring this whole thing and am quite confident I know substantially more than you do about the woes of the site.

Keep looking for your one-armed man.

Yeah, it's like they'd never watched a clip of Ford. Their impersonation was terrible. More 'generic Canadian' than crack-smoking foul-mouthed mayor.

The 60 minutes scandal was big news last week too. They got completely fooled by mercenary who claimed to have been on the groudnd during the benghazi incident, aired a special report that had the right wingers up in arms about the admin hiding the truth, and had senator lindsey graham blocking presidential appointments until the truth was revealed.......and it turns out it was a complete hoax and that the dude made the whole thing up....including his own name.

Ok. I missed that. I guess it was a way to merge two news stories into one.

I see Ford motor co.has asked #RobFord not to use their logo anymore on his t shirts. And Coke said "Don't even think about it"
 
Re: OT: Canadian Politics

I really do not know what he does or how he spends his days (he will not release his daily schedule). But this whole victim card he is playing needs to be stopped. I really want him to must go away.

Re: OT: Canadian Politics

Just out of curiosity. Let's just say all the other candidates are mediocre - Will anyone on here be voting for him next election? I will not be.

Between names such as Stinz, Tory, and Minnan-Wong, there should be more than enough right-leaning candidates in the field to launch a qualified challenge for the mayoral seat. Obviously Chow is going to come from the left along with other potential challengers, but the key will be the potential vote-splitting.

Ford probably has a base of 20 percent hardcore supporters that will vote for him no matter what due to their perception of him as a quality fiscal manager.

I have no clue where the whole "aboot" thing originated to be honest. I've never once heard a Canadian say that term in my entire life.
 
Re: OT: Canadian Politics

minnan-wang is a ****ing wanker.

i'd move if he became mayor. he'd be a bigger disaster than chow.
 
Re: OT: Canadian Politics

and i dont' know what you guys were expecting from snl. the writing is pretty mediocre, and moynihan is hopelessly unfunny.

This doesn't answer my question at all. Perhaps you should enter politics.
