"And Randy Will Be By Later to Break Your Knees, Okay?"

So I listened to Doug Ford threaten a constituent in a voicemail this morning. It should be shocking but of course it isn't. Kathleen Wynne warned at the outset of the last campaign that he's a bully, but by that time the sexist and racist Sun had been itself bullying her for so long that we all just wanted to look away.

I remember seeing Sun covers in the newspaper box when I'd be waiting for a bus and realizing that nothing had changed with the men (and women!) who own and work for it since they were publishing the names of men caught in bathhouse raids back in the '80s.

Anyway, my guess is that Doug Ford records the phone numbers of callers to be added to a party database for use at a later date and that's why he encourages constituents to call him personally. It's shameful, the bullshit he spews, while party operatives loot and pillage our province.

Anyway, today's Conservatives shouldn't be anywhere near power, but what can we do when Liberals and New Democrats and Greens all run candidates to compete against each other, as if each other is the enemy and not the men (and women!) who just want to get their greasy paws on all that public money.

It's the only reason they run for public office, you know, to get their greasy paws on all that public money. They don't want to govern. Government is in their way. They just want to get their greasy paws on all that public money.
