Watching Rob Ford in the recent weeks reminds me of what John Ralston Saul once wrote of Benito Mussolini and his contemporary reincarnation in Silvio Berlusconi: a€?He was the nascent modern Heroic leader.

We are on the edge of disaster without being able to situate it in the future: it is rather always already past. Maurice Blanchot. ??
