London Muslims Endorse Red Ken for Re-Election
2008-01-03
AoS note: please note formatting corrections. I don't have all day to do this. Posts that violate our usual posting conventions may end up deleted.
Since June 2000, Ken Livingstone has been an outstanding mayor of London. He has stood out in support of a multicultural society and has supported the Muslim communities of the city against racism and Islamophobia as well as all other minorities against all types of prejudice.
Translation: Red Ken can't perceive Islamofascism.
His stands and policies have constantly championed justice in the Middle East and around the world, freedom for the Palestinians and withdrawal of occupying troops from Iraq; a rare trait of modern-day public figures. He has enhanced London's standing in the world and helped improve the lives of all of the city's communities.
Another Pollyanna
For those and many more traits continuously and consistently demonstrated by the Ken Livingstone, we the undersigned believe that it is in the best interest of the Muslim communities of London, and indeed all Londoners, to back Mr Livingstone in this year's mayoral elections.

We pledge to continue our support for the mayor on all levels possible in order to secure his staying in office for a third term.
Signed by: the usual suspects.

#9  I've been told by denizens that Red Ken is merely a bit eccentric, and the English do love their eccentrics. That he's a truly nasty man seems to escape their notice.

#8  What was the "formatting" problem? I previewed, and the post looked good.

#7  London's not so bad.

Ken was elected primarily because he annoyed Blair.

There's a few scandals to do with his taxpayers' money embezzling friends that will sink him.

#6  What does it say about the majority of the electorate in London that Livingstone is their chosen mayor? It says to me London is not a city I'd be welcome in. And that, sir, would be a badge of honor.

#5  Kinda like when Al Qaeda endorsed John Frickin' Kerry.

Red Ken has imported his electorate and the rest of us are forced to live with it.

Yeah. We have politicians in this country who import their voters from south of the border. Maybe that's just what you have to do when your own citizens start getting wise to you.

#4  You're thinking of Galloway. Red Ken's a commie.

#3  How corrupt is that?

I thought he was headed to jail for his numerous scams. Iraq oil for food, etc?
