'Crack Mayor' Rob Ford TORONTO IS SAFE ... Even Though I'm Partying at the Oscars

Citizens of Toronto, fear not ... even though your sometimes crack-smoking mayor just touched down in Hollywood to apparently hit up the Oscars -- and after his recent trip to Mardi Gras -- he claims the city is still in good hands.

Rob Ford made his way through a media storm of cameras Saturday night at LAX (video to follow) ... telling our photog he's running political biz from the road -- and even plans to run for office again later this year.

"Crack Mayor" told the Toronto Sun early Saturday morning he was flying to L.A. to attend the Academy Awards ... but when he got to baggage claim Jimmy Kimmel was waiting as his driver ... so this was clearly all for his late night show.

Witchy is on a tar :
Lost a Beiber, gained a Ford. $hit.

How can you not love this guy? He's a friggin mayor for Christ sake! Even he recognizes his job is a joke.

I bet he'll do a lot of crack in Hollywood and some heroin too

His gut is so big how does he see his wiener
Now on the serious side :
Oh geez. Stop encouraging this embarrassment to Canadians. He's like the Kardashians of Canada...famous for his inflated ego and fat ass.
Rob Ford , one question  please ... Do you think  Jimmy is  laughing  with  you  or at  you . Remember  Mr. Ford  and I use Mr. very , very  lightly ,  Kimmel  got  bumped  up to the  'Late Night Show'  and  he is  vying  for rating ,  my  guess is  Jimmy is laughing at  you .
