This Is A Great Photo Of Rob Ford Being Tickled
We thought we had found the quintessential Rob Ford photo, but times have changed.
The disgraced Toronto mayor is no longer having a meltdown, and has settled into his role as the public official who admitted to smoking crack and tends to get drunk and rant.
Nevertheless, as of November Ford had a higher approval rating than Barack Obama. And the photo below - showing Toronto's Chief Budget Officer Councilor Frank Di Giorgio tickling Ford during a budget meeting at City Hall - may indicate why.
Despite his faults, many people still find Ford fun and cuddly in a Tommy Boy sort of way.
