So, a recent email from a Muslim email list, sent out by the self-proclaimed spokesman for everybody, Jeff Siddiqui, contains the list of his endorsements for the Muslim “community”:

List of candidates and issues to vote for
a.. US Senate Too many candidate for now. Patty Murray has avoided meeting with Muslims ever since 9-11 (I would like to know which Muslim groups she has met with…I doubt if there are any). Until we have a meeting with the different candidates, vote for Dino Rossi.
b.. US Representative District 1 Would prefer Jay Inslee, but he does has not stood up to protect Muslims in spite of the many opportunities he has had; maybe after we have had an chance to meet him and speak with him, we will review but for now, vote for Matthew Burke.
c.. US Representative District 7 vote for Jim McDermott. He is certainly the BEST candidate of all.
d.. US Representative District 8 vote for Susan DelBene. DO NOT VOTE for Reichert who supported everything against Muslims, that he could find.
e.. US Representative District 8 vote for Adam Smith. He is a decent enough fellow even if he does not (yet) have the courage to support equal rights for Muslims.
Levies and initiatives:
a.. Initiative Measure 1053 Vote “NO!” This will place all tax decisions in the hands of the Republican Party and so far, they have not shown themselves to be concerned about the poor.
b.. Initiative Measure 1098 Vote “YES!!!” This will move the tax burdens according to income, it will relieve the poor and remove the regressive sales taxes. It may also REDUCE B&O taxes.
c.. Initiative Measure 1100 Vote “YES” This will get the state OUT of the business of selling alcohol.
d.. Initiative Measure 1105 Vote “YES” This may help raise taxes on sales of alcohol.
e.. Initiative Measure 1107 Vote “NOOOO!!!” Why should we remove sales tax on junk food like candy and soft drinks?
f.. Referendum 52 Vote “YES” This will help raise funds for energy projects in schools by continuing the existing sales taxes on bottled water…good all the way around!
g.. House Joint Resolution 4220 Vote “YES” This will permit judges to refuse bail for people accused of crimes that could end in life sentences.

Snohomish County:
a.. State Senator Dist 21 Paull Shin is fairly harmless, we may as well vote for him…not sure if the Republican candidates are any good.
b.. State Representative Dist 1 Position 2 Vote for Lius Moscuso His heart is in the right place for civil rights
c.. State Supreme Court Position 1 Vote for Stan Rambaugh DO NOT VOTE for Johnson, he is very conservative and is unlikely to help minorities.
d.. School Levies Support them (vote ‘YES’), our schools need all the support we can give them.
King County:
a.. District Court N-E Electoral District Judge Position 7 Vote for Ketu Shah He is a Great person and will help keep justice in America.

No wonder Republicans don’t like Muslims. If people like Jeff Siddiqui were to decide policy for us, we’d be taxed to death and taxed even after that.
