Taliban Credited With Bringing Down Rahim Jaffer!

Or at least "the Islamists". Apparently, they teamed up with Michael Geist and the folks at AnyoneButHarper.

So says Raheel Raza , at any rate:

In two districts (ridings as they are called in Canada) the Muslim candidates who lost were openly hostile to the Islamist agenda. Wajid Khan in Toronto and Rahim Jaffer in Edmonton. It is rumored that the full force of the Islamist establishment and the mosque structure came out to defeat these two Muslims because they were seen, in the words of one cynic 'too good looking to be considered authentic Muslims'.

I'm not buying it. Wajid Khan is plenty ugly.

Khan't Let Go

As The Wunderbabe notes, Wiji's last minute leaflet drop appears to be using paperstock leftover from his Lib Party days.

Maybe he's seen the polls and is trying to switch back...

The Upside Of Floorcrossing

Let them prosecute this dirty Tory to the full extent of the law!













SCANDAL!! SCANDAL!!!

$38,000 For Sweet F.A.

That's the damage from Wiji Khan's first Mid-East Trip back in September of 2006. And for that princely sum, the Canadian taxpayer apparently got a report written on transparent paper in invisible ink.

Although Wiji did manage to uncover the startling truth that torture is a "fact of life over there", which I could have done via a google search for the price of a couple of TTC tokens and a bowl of soup.

Writing About Manitoba...

...is a great way to kill your traffic. Even Manitobans don't want to hear about Manitoba. HALLLOOO? HALLOOO? Anyone out there in the frozen tundra? I hear they've got a city somewhere in the snow where The Guess Who came from.

On another topic, Jeff points out that Wajid Khan will indeed be running again as a Tory in Mississauga-Streetsville. I don't have much to add to his comments, other than to note that this website, Betrayed By Wajid Khan, may serve as an important repository of wajiphernalia during the campaign. Not much at the site now, but perhaps this news will arouse the page owner to greater heights of righteous indignation.

PS. Did you know that Hazel McCallion refers to Khan as "wijid"?
