Because YOU Asked for it
One of our frequent commenters, a loopy lefty and Ahmad Zahra fan complained of a post that included a picture of a kid holding a no Zahra sign, intimating that we were using kids as props.
Yeah precious. Little kid with no agency used a prop for some adult’s fucked point of view.
Kinda gross. No one’s winning anything for that.
I felt constrained to point out that the object of his affection, Zahra, uses little kids as props (and by the way others like Pam Keller, liked to do it too).
Our commenter replied:
I’m sure there’s no comparison to a kid being used as a prop for rank Bushala political schemes.
Hmm. Rank political schemes. Does getting elected and endless self-promotion count as “rank.”
Our boy Zahra created a fake family for a mailer when running for office in 2022, using four Latino looking kids as props in an effort to come off as a family man with a wife and kids. Oops! Hopefully “mom” got paid something for her smile and maybe passed down a few bucks to the dragooned kiddos. More likely none of them were even related, just trawled out of central casting.
And let’s not forget the Zahra photo-op of posing with Maple area kids in 2023 to explain their Latino culture to them.
Oh, well, these BooHoos seem incapable of seeing what rational, honest people see, which explains how Middle Eastern miscreant who stayed in the USA via Marriage Fraud can yak it up about we welcomed him on our shores, and in some circles, get away with it.
What ever happened to Pam Keller?
Kids these days need to learn that ice cream from Ahmad isn’t free. It’s gonna cost you something. More than your soul.
Pam Keller once dressed up her little boy as Cupid with wings and a loin cloth so she could preside over marriages at the County Clerks office on Harbor.
Jesus, I remember that. Where the hell was dad?
You mean Zahra hasn’t fathered four kids? Hmm.
Maybe those kids were adopted.
He’s using all the people in D5 as props. Too bad for him the awful melodrama will be over in 2 years.
Zahra’s entire existence is a prop. A facade and complete farce wrapped around a junior high school creative writing exercise. Zahra embodies the absolute worst in political hackery and tomfoolery. May God have mercy on his rotten soul.
Chaka, you’re da bomb!
Amen. The guy never found a photo op or divisive issue he didn’t love. Guy is muy malo.
Guess I struck a nerve.
“Does getting elected and endless self-promotion count as “rank.””
Not in my opinion. Being selected to represent your community is an honor. Doing so is service. Campaign ads are a necessary step and so nothing inherently wrong with them. But a campaign photo with kids in it is different than turning a very young person with no understanding or agency into a human ad hominem.
It’s icky.
I specifically did not ask for this article and gave an argument clearly precluding it when prompted.
“Doesn’t sound comparable. There’s a difference between putting a kid with a negative campaign sign against your political target and the kind of thing fiends have bitched about in the past.
But you decided to do it anyway, and quote me while leaving my reasoning out of your article.
Business as usual.
That was you?
Figures. Caught in another hypocritical self-assfuck.
Sorry for your low reading comprehension, anonymous coward. We all have our crosses to bear.
Man, your kids are seriously gonna hate you.
When they change their last names, I really hope it stings.
I guess you’re projecting? As in, you post anonymously because you’re concerned what your family would think of you if they knew how stupid you are in daily, in print.
You can guess whatever you want.
Don’t say no one warned you. You did this to them, and yourself.
Thank you for your fake concern. Everything is peachy.
