BREAKING: VA Governor Ralph Northam Admits He Was in Racist Yearbook Photo, Apologizes

Between the Infanticide, the Black Face, The Klan Robes and the Rape Charges, VA is blowing up!

WASHINGTON POST PUSHES BACK ON JUSTIN FAIRFAX DENIAL OF SEXUAL-ASSAULT CLAIM, PUBLISHES GRAPHIC DETAILS.

The Democrats’ chickens, coming home to roost:



#3 Mark Herring: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know.

Well, mostly you just need to know that he’s another Democrat. The GOP really should have tried harder in Virginia. On the other hand, the way things are going, who know what skeletons will come out of Herring’s closet?

Who’s #4 in line? Speaker of the House of Delegates Kirk Cox, a Republican.

 

Meanwhile......

was Reeves one of those in blackface?
Did Reeves summit those pictures to be posted in the year book?
according to the article those pictures were taken prior Reeves ever pledging
so we have the typical liberal tactic of guilt by association
pretty dam lame

 

The Dems have got to step down. The racist had lost the will to lead

 

Let's see instead of just loudly and unequivocally stating "THAT IS NOT ME IN THAT PICTURE" he first apologizes, then takes back the apology.....sorta.....and says he won't resign. Now for something he says he didn't do he thinks he has to go out on a "Reconciliation Tour" and read Roots and other books about black suffering. If he's truly innocent he doesn't have to do ANYTHING except say it and move on. But that he feels he has to go out and grovel speaks volumes. And the audacity to proclaim he believes he is the person in the best position now to "heal" racial relations............the man has no bounds.

VIRGINIA GOV RALPH NORTHAM PLANNING ‘RECONCILIATION TOUR’ ON RACE INEQUITIES, DOUBLES DOWN ON REFUSAL TO RESIGN

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam is resisting pressure to resign, and has reportedly been given homework by his advisers to read 'Roots' and 'The Case for Reparations'

I don’t see what the problem is with a Democrat dressed up in a democrat uniform (KKK member)

 

I don't think Northam is a racist, evidently more than thirty years ago he was quite racially insensitive, but back then this wasn't as intolerable.

51% thought it was “an isolated incident”, 34% saw this as “a sign of broader racial prejudice” and 15% had “no opinion”.

85% of those polled had “heard a lot” about Northam’s yearbook photo, 55% where “not offended” by the photo (I suppose these would be the whites).

33% of respondents identified as Democrats, 25% as Republican, and 39% as independent.

I don't think Northam will resign.

 

It is increasing looking like Northam will stay put (for the time being)

 

Whether he stays or goes will depend on whether the critical left backs its rhetoric with action, I've no doubt the howling would be much louder if the governor was Republican.

 

I’m sure the DNC is telling him to hold tight. There is a reason one of their propoganda machine the Post set on the story

 

The DNC would be sensibly concerned that with Lt. Gov. Fairfax in jeopardy (facing much more serious accusations that implicate DNC's #MeToo posture) the governorship could fall into Republican hands.

 

VIRGINIA CLOWN SHOW UPDATE: CBS’s Gayle King corrects Northam for referring to slaves as ‘indentured servants.’

The comment came in Northam’s first televised interview since he began facing calls to resign over a blackface scandal, in which he urged healing.

“We are now at the 400-year anniversary — just 90 miles from here in 1619. The first indentured servants from Africa landed on our shores in Old Point Comfort, what we call now Fort Monroe, and while—,” Northam said, before King cut him off.

“Also known as slavery,” King said.

“Yes,” Northam responded.​

And note this moment in the transcript:

GOV. RALPH NORTHAM: –right now, Virginia needs someone that can heal. There’s no better person to do that than a doctor. Virginia also needs someone who is strong, who has empathy, who has courage and who has a moral compass. And that’s why I’m not going anywhere. I have learned from this. I have a lot more to learn. But we’re in a unique opportunity now. Again the 400 year anniversary of the history whether it be good or bad in Virginia to really make some impactful changes–

GAYLE KING: Of slavery in this country?

GOV. RALPH NORTHAM: Yes.

As CNN’s Jeff Yang tweets, “‘The 400 year anniversary of the history [of slavery] whether it be good or bad.’ It be bad, Ralph.”

When you’re a Democrat who’s lost CBS, CNN, and the Washington Post, your career barely has a pulse. Speaking of which, Twitchy notes that “to top it all, during his interview with King, Northam touted his being in ‘life and death’ situations with children.” And/or life followed by death for newborn children.

Wagons = circled: Virginia Democratic Rep. Don Beyer just admitted they won’t force the AG out because a Republican would take over.

They told me that if Donald Trump were elected president, we’d see open racism becoming acceptable in polite society. And they were right!

WHAT IS IT ABOUT VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS? Virginia AG says he wore blackface at college party.

 

Then Trump should step down as well.
Agreed?

 

Republicans had no trouble with Sanford and he was allowed to stay in office until he was voted out.
No double standards - right?

 

when you produce a picture of Trump wearing black face then I will agree

how about having a black girl friend does that come close?

 

when was Sanford accused of rape?

 

Why? What does he have to do with the Va Dems?

 

My main question. Wasn't there anything ELSE you could go as in the 80's?

Fer crissakes it would have been less controversial for that guy to go as Wonder Woman

 

Did First Lady of Virginia ALSO wear Blackface in her yearbook?

Looks like the hits just keep on comin' in Virginia.

 

He hasn't done anything wrong. And he knows it.

 

Snowflakes are on the move stirring things up. Just can't cheer even a Dem Gov wife getting attacked for handing out cotton.

 

Legally, you're right - he hasn't. I've said in this thread I don't think he should resign either but it sure is fun watching the circus perform.

 

He looks like a crook after the hearings today.

 

He should offer to perform an apology and self abasement tour to black churches and the like in VA accompanied by Rock Newman.

#TIMESUP FOR #METOO: Northam, Fairfax, and Herring hang tough in Virginia.

The torpedo that Democrats put in the water to take out Trump –and Kavanaugh — failed to destroy its targets but circled around and took out a number of Democrats. So, conveniently, the rules are changing again.
