Ford responds to murder rant vid: "I was extremely, extremely inebriated"

It's his go to excuse. Ack.

<snip>

Shortly after 12:30 p.m. ET, Ford stepped out of his office at city hall and addressed the video that first appeared on the Star's website.

“Obviously, I was extremely, extremely inebriated,” Ford said, expressing that it was "embarrassing." The mayor also made reference to having made some "mistakes."

What was it he said the night of Ford's election? Something like: "Suck on that, liberal pinkos!"

So, Grapes, what do you think of your boy now?

Don Cherry is still around?

I grew up in the Buffalo/Niagara Falls area in the 1970s/80s watching lots of Buffalo Sabres hockey, and seeing Cherry's sour puss on my TV way more than I ever desired. He was no spring chicken back then!
