Wolves In Sheep's Clothing

If you bring up the legacy of George W. Bush

Councillor Rob Ford apologized
at city council today
for remarks he made earlier
 this month about “Orientals”
— but it didn’t come easy.

Right wingers shoot back with a push
Those who roll their eyes don't want to admit
Ignoring history makes you bound to repeat it

In Ontario it's much the same with Mike Harris
The thought of him makes most embarrassed
In Toronto's comical mayoral campaign
There's talk of voting in more of the same

Many want a mayor who's a friend to Ottawa
Thinking Toronto will get something, is a flaw
Federal Conservatives hate everything Liberal
Politically based exclusion
In a word
Criminal!
A government not representative of all of its people

John Tory,
who has been touting
his SmartTrack
plan to use GO
 train corridors
for transit,
dropped out of a transit
users' debate hours before
 it was slated
to be held Monday.

In a word is
Evil!

Mr. John Tory
What is his story?
Private sector corporate types
Make for good fiscal managers right?
A common talking point of the politically trite
It's only beneficial if you're a large corporation
While Jane Q Public succumbs to inflation
                                                                                                 
We think corporations make all the jobs
We call ourselves average working slobs
We're not so smart we sheepishly say
It's better we keep our thoughts at bay
And hand power over to those with "feet of clay"

How about reminding the John Tory promoters
Locally and Provincially, he was rejected by voters
His bid for PC leadership was a political croaker
He was replaced by Tim Hudak, the political joker
Yet he keeps on resurfacing like a political floater!
He'll say anything to be ranked a political power broker
Under his leadership Toronto will stay mediocre!

John Tory, leader (2004-2009)
Tory came under heavy criticism
 from several party member
s following this delay, with
his opponents signalling that
 they would continue to call
 for an end to what they\
 called his 'weak' leadership.[13]

Toronto is top heavy with obesity                                        
Evidenced by wealthy indecency
The symptoms include:
Hording of wealth around the globe
Social blindness on the occipital lobe
Making false promises to give the gullible hope
Avoiding the issues to keep your campaign afloat

What the gullible don't seem to understand          
Is the mathematical equation at hand
People over money gets you positive results
Money over people gets you Ford Nation cults

John Tory said he
would delay the
Sheppard East and
Finch LRTs in April.
Mr. Tory was the
only campaigning
candidate who stayed
silent when Tim Hudak
said he’d cancel the Finch
and Sheppard East LRTs.
And after launching his
campaign to build a subway
relief line, calling it
his top priority,
he now won’t invest in subway relief.

Toronto Mayoral candidate
 Olivia Chow also threw
 her support behind initiatives
 that open streets up
 to pedestrians, usually
on Sundays, as long as
 they have the support of
 residents and businesses.
pedestrian fatalities in
 Toronto which, her campaign
 noted, have hit a ten-year
 high under Rob Ford’s watch
