You say Toe-may-toe...

...Giorgio says whorehouse...

-- TORONTO -- The Velvet Touch Massage parlour — where NDP Leader Jack Layton was found during a 1996 police visit — was suspected to be a bawdy house since it opened, Toronto Councillor Giorgio Mammoliti alleged.

The massage parlour in the city's Chinatown neighbourhood, which ceased operations down shortly after the police came calling, opened in 1994 and was among 26 suspected bawdy houses Toronto Police cracked down on with more than 300 charges.

And Giorgio, unlike CTV and CBC, isn't buying Jacko's "community clinic" nonsense...

"I can pretty much guarantee wherever there's a rub-and-tug, it's run by organized crime, and drugs are always a part of the equation. That's just a reality of the business."

So... Toronto cops raid a whorehouse looking for underage Thai hookers... and find a naked Toronto City Councillor... and that's the guy you're gonna vote for?

I don't believe it, Canada.

We're better than that.

It's true, nonny... not one Conservative of my acquaintance thinks sexual slavery... or child prostitution... is something to be taken lightly.

RELATED: A funny kind of innocent

Jack Layton says voters will dismiss a report that he was once found in a massage parlour by police in 1996 as a non-issue, because there was “no wrongdoing” in the incident, for which the NDP leader was not arrested or charged.

Is Jacko right, folks? Is that your Prime Minister?

I wouldn't let this guy walk my dog.

LAST WORD: It's just sex... right?

No, sorry... not even close. This kinda thing isn't about some guy "gettin' a little on the side." It's about character. It's about honour. It's about telling the truth and taking responsibility.

Nobody really cares when somebody fucks around, or that somebody got jerked off by prostitute... but, the thing is, you can't have it both ways.

You either care about human rights... care about women... or you rent them by the hour. You can't be a leader or a role model... if you're peddling unadulterated horseshit.

You hear the way people laugh about Berlusconi and Italy these days? I don't want that to happen to my country.
