Ralph Northam is What Happens When Our Fake News Media Fails to do Its Job
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 02/02/2019 4:56:10 AM PST by EyesOfTX

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) At last! A failed mayor of a corrupt New Jersey city is running for president! Thanks, Democrats! – Yes, friends, Senator Spartacus Jazz Hands, aka Cory Booker, has joined fray in the ballooning competition to see which Democrat gets to lose to Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election. Aren’t you all thrilled? I know I am.

We had to have Sen. Jazz Hands in the race for the entertainment value alone. Think of him as the 2020 version of John Kasich, only without all the “my father was a mailman” references. Spartacus will be the guy who just keeps hanging around saying all sorts of boring and stupid stuff while not winning anything, but he’ll have the added value of throwing the frequent childish fit when he doesn’t get his way about something. That’s when the Jazz Hands come out.

Yes, truly, Sen. Jazz Hands was an essential element for this cycle’s field of Democrat candidates. His entry into the race leaves us with just one more potential candidate announcement remaining who simply must get in in order to complete the perfect Democrat line up of freaks, misanthropes, communists, losers and frauds: Irish Bob O’Rourke.

Irish Bob simply must get in for the simple reason of all the fantastic social media memes his fake nickname will spawn. Plus, the potential for him live-streaming his next colonoscopy for political reasons is just something the nation cannot live without.

Jump in, Irish Bob, the water’s just fine, and the doctor is ready.

How does this even happen? – When you look back on the reality of it, it’s hard to imagine anyone with a mind creative and evil enough to make up the week the Democrat Party just had. Think about it: This week alone, here is what they have done:

Had two sitting governors, the mayor of a major city, and members of 8 different state legislatures sign, propose, endorse or pass bills that legalize infanticide;

Had the narrative about the infamous “Trump Tower Meeting” conducted by Donald Trump, Jr. in October 2016 be revealed as utterly fake news;

Had one of the party’s major presidential candidates endorse elimination of all private health insurance, a key piece of the communist agenda;

Saw the head of the American Gestapo, er, “Special Counsel” issue an indictment against Roger Stone that conclusively proves there was no “Russia Collusion” by the Trump Campaign;

Had the State of the Union Address scheduled for Feb. 5, giving President Trump a golden opportunity to spend 90 minutes educating the nation about what a freak and horror show their political party really is

Had their favorite Supreme Court Justice fail to show up for work for the fourth consecutive week;

Saw President Trump take the right side – the side of freedom – in Venezuela while many of their own members and media toadies showed their true colors by supporting that country’s current thug socialist dictator;

Had the January jobs report come in at almost double the number predicted by all the idiot “experts”; Saw the Dow Jones Industrial Average jump right back up over 25,000;

Saw President Trump make huge progress in getting his trade deal with China;

And finally, the coup de gras, saw the release of a yearbook photo showing the Democrat Governor of Virginia made up in black face, standing next to a guy in full KKK regalia!

Now, that, folks, is a No Good, Terrible, Horrible, God-awful, Very Bad Week.

And it’s only Saturday.

Seriously, how do you miss this? – If I’m Ed Gillespie, the GOP candidate who lost the Virginia Governor’s race to Ralph Black Face Infanticide Northam, I’m on the phone this morning with the high-dollar firm that was in charge of my campaign’s opposition research effort demanding a refund.

Seriously, how does someone miss something so rudimentary and still hold themselves out to be political professionals? And it isn’t just Gillespie – Northam had three opponents in the Democrat primary, and none of their oppo people caught it, either.

Then there’s the fake news media, most especially the news fakers at the Washington Post. The Post had plenty of fake reporters on staff to dedicate to finding women from 40 years ago who would slander Alabama Republican senate candidate Roy Moore, had dozens of fake journalists scouring every facet of Brett Kavanaugh’s background, but had zero interest at all in assigning some intern to review the high school and college annuals of a Democrat gubernatorial candidate. Funny how that works, huh?

Here we have an overt racist (Northam’s college nickname was – I kid you not – “Coon Man”) and endorser of outright infanticide sitting in the Governor’s mansion of Virginia in the year 2019, and no one in our fake news media had the slightest whiff of that prior to election day? Please.

Note to all you demented Democrats: This is what happens when our nation’s entire Fourth Estate has consciously and intentionally abrogated its duty to perform as the people’s advocate in our society. Ralph Northam and the shame he has brought upon you this week is simply reaping what your party has sown.

I’m cool with that.

That is all.

LESSON: If you’re in school - high or college - don’t even have your portrait picture in the yearbook. Try to avoid any and all group, club, sports, etc., pictures...in fact, don’t even buy one of the damn things.

They’ve turned those crazy, hazy, days of youth into “fact finding” for a lazy-ass media, used to ruin the lives of their enemies.

Avoid yearbooks at all costs.

Short answer: They didn’t miss it. They spiked it.

What did the party and media know, and when did they know it?

My bet: The reason Northam hasn’t been ridden out of town on a rail yet is that others knew and kept quiet. Northam is using that to get a better bribe.

It is a major failure of GOP operational research. Why couldn’t Gillespie’s team come up with this? It would have turned the election in 2017.

How do you know they didn’t?

The uniparty could give a **** about the letter after the winner’s name as long as the winner toes the uniparty line.

Why didn’t we use our Russian hacking buddies to win the house?

I know Gillespie who was a former RNC head. If he had this photo and refused to use it even after Northam called him a racist, then Gillespie is a fool. Your suggestion that Gillespie wanted to lose doesn’t make sense.

And yet Northam's people got away with running two of the foulest political ads in recent memory:

Dnd this one on TV that's so over the top it's practically satire: (click pic to open YouTube video)

I’ll bet Northam was / is a Margaret Sanger fan, too.

“Coon Man” ? Can’t wait to hear that explanation.

I have thought for many years that having the media covering for your party is not a good thing.

It is like a child that has no boundaries no discipline. The Democrats believe they can do anything because the media will cover for them even when caught. That is until they do something so bad that the media can not cover for them and then they lose it all.

The Republicans are usually more honest not because they want to be but because they understand that they will be called out the second the media discovers something in their closet.

This rapid shift to the left is because the media are not calling them (the Democrats) on their planned murder of babies, or their dream of taxing our economy into Venezuela.

The Democrats are living in a protective bubble created by the media.

They have forgotten the media alone cannot assure victory. You would think they would have learned something from the 2016 election when they were all convinced that Hillary would win (and why not, she had the media, the CIA, the FBI, the DOJ as well as most Republican elites supporting her) but she lost.

Middle America is a sleeping giant right now and the Democrats are using a pointed stick to wake it up.

Yup. This was 35 years ago. Everyone has done something in their past that would not be acceptable today.

Maybe we can go after everyone who ate at a Sambos restaurant.
That would be considered quite racist today.

Check

Which party dredges up stuff (real or otherwise) from a persons past to impact current events?

Both parties do ops research on their opponents. The Dems do a better job.

This guy is the victim of what happens when the non-thinking public holds people to incredible standards.

In VA in the 1980’s this shit was off-color, but not crazy.

Today, it’s insane.

I only hope I live long enough to see these douchey kids seem themselves hoisted on their own social media pertatrds.

There are plenty of reasons to not like this Gov politically. But this is not one of them.

His class mates in med school must have LOVED him. It was his graduating yearbook. You would think that in 2019 some grandkid or something would have looked at his grandad’s medical yearbook and started the ball rolling on social media. Weirdness.

Gillespie is GOP 1.0, he thinks taking the "high road" is a better political strategy.

It’s not the lies the media puts out, that’s the problem.

It’s the truths that they don’t put out, that’s the problem.
