Ralph Northam Is Lying
Slate ^ | Feb 2 2019 | William Saletan

Posted on 02/03/2019 10:07:31 AM PST by rintintin

Ralph Northam, the governor of Virginia, swears he’s telling the truth. On Friday, Northam confessed to appearing in a racist photo in a 1984 yearbook. On Saturday, after Democrats called on him to resign, he reversed himself and said it was a case of mistaken identity. “I will stand and live by my word,” Northam told reporters at an afternoon press conference. He quoted the honor code of his alma mater, the Virginia Military Institute: “A cadet shall not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

I don’t know whether Northam is one of the people in the photo. But I do know he’s been lying in his responses to this story. The evidence is in his own words.

Northam is only interested in making sure that he will be carried to full term.

An article yesterday asked “Why now? Who released the photo?”

Answer — distract from baby murder - get it off the front pages.

As we used to say in the Corps, no $hit Sherlock....

Does this guy actually get paid money to figure out Northam is lying? Newsflash, we already know. If you want to do a real story, why not figure out how this photo got out now, who released it and why? Maybe it has something to do with his indefensible remarks on infanticide or as I like to call it, 4th trimester abortions.

Yes. I think Ralph is praying that Ginsburg dies ASAP!

/ Ace reporters at the Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk unearthed the bad news for Northam:
EVMS alumni indicated that when Northam attended, students personally selected and submitted their own yearbook photos.

Which makes perfect sense-----how would the school have gotten Northam's pictures unless he personally had a hand in it?

And why would the school put the blackface picture on Northam's yearbook page if ....as he says....it wasnt him?

When a liberal in every other aspect loses Slate, who openly calls Northam a liar, then he is “slated” for the trash bin of history.

This is not an attack form the Republicans only, which could be brushed off without a second thought, it is an attack by persons who are supposed to be on HIS side.

Strange, though, that the “racism” of which the other liberals find him guilty of, and not the totally amoral justifications for infanticide in attempting to legalize it under the laws of Virginia, much as it has been done in New York State, should have stirred the conscience of the phony liberals that “suddenly” discovered a moral code.

Northam crossed the line, so they pulled out this “secret weapon” to get rid of him in favor of the black Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, who, having graduated from a Catholic high school, has even more credibility amongst Democrafts on the abortion issue.

My thoughts from the beginning. When all the liberals want him to go away I want him to stay and fight. He is an endless gift for us and whoever runs against him next time.

No, he has an (R) after his name. CNN said so.

It may be that a certain lieutenant governor wants him gone, his research bureau found this and kept it until the time was ripe. Then a candidate who might never be elected governor lands in the governor’s office.
