The IRS looked into the left organizations no more than usual.  Tea party and other right leaning organizations were intentionally targeted by far greater margin.

Cite? Even a cite from the Daily KOS will be acceptable. I'd like to know what this "far greater margin" is.
In the meantime, is Bloomberg an acceptable source to show that the conservative victimization complex is off the charts?

Ignoring the press is just not right especially when your chief of staff walks out and now is being quoted as saying Ford needs help.

 Actually, his chief of staff didn't walk out---he was fired. He made a point of making it clear he didn't walk out, because walking out in such a situation would be like abandoning the city. He also wasn't "quoted" as saying that he was fired for telling Ford to walk away and seek help. That quote is hearsay from an anonymous source.

Exactly !! If the Star didn't have such a track record of trashing Ford at every opportunity they would have more credibility.


Can you, with a straight face, say that Ford's behaviour hasn't warranted the Star's reporting? If the video eventually comes out and it's verified to obviously be Ford, would you still think the Star responded unethically by saying what they saw after CNN and Gawker had already reported on it?

I wouldn't defend this type of (alleged) behaviour but I'd vote for Ford just see the Star's heads explode.

You'd sacrifice the city to give the Star more material to sell papers? Interesting choice.

I don't think he can go much longer without addressing this.

He can go to the end of his term and beyond. That doesn't mean he won't be political kryptonite who is completely incapable of effectively leading the city, but he can go forever without addressing it (even if the tape comes out). I think his ego is more powerful than any feelings he may have of doing what's best for the city.

I feel bad for the people who are trying so hard to defend him. It's a tough job that appears to be getting harder every day.
