The flood of scandalous Rob Ford crack stories has slowed to a trickle in Toronto as we wait for more developments—mark your calendars for December 6 at 4:30 p.m.—but Ford fatigue has yet to set in on The Late Show. Last night, David Letterman took two more swipes at our mayor. One (above) was a jokey ad for a mock PBS documentary called Ken Burns Presents ‘The Statement’ by Rob Ford, in which A-list celebrities Jennifer Lawrence, Jonah Hill, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Martha Stewart read classic Fordian denials and admissions. Vince Vaughn also participates.

The second jab at his Fordship came in a skit (below) in which Ford crashes Letterman’s staff Thanksgiving dinner, belly-flopping onto the buffet.
