Harris, Castro call on Northam to resign after blackface photo comes to light
The Washington Times ^ | February 1, 2019 | Dave Boyer

Presidential candidates Sen. Kamala Harris and Julian Castro were among prominent Democrats calling on Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam to resign Friday night over a photograph of him in a racist costume.

Ms. Harris, California Democrat, tweeted, “Leaders are called to a higher standard, and the stain of racism should have no place in the halls of government. The Governor of Virginia should step aside so the public can heal and move forward together.”

Mr. Castro, mayor of San Antonio, Texas, said it “doesn’t matter if he is a Republican or a Democrat.”

Northam in the span of just a few days was able to passionately turn about 90% of the country aganist him.

What will he do to rein in the remaining 10?

So its not evil when he currently advocates murder but what he in 1984 in blackface or wearing a KKK hood and robe, is. Typical: its not the lies of the 10 commandments that are the standard, but political correctness anachronistically applied.

Wait till something negative Harris and Castro did 25 years ago comes up.

“they want Northam gone and replaced with an even bigger douche bag”

Yep, the racist vote for Firfax will be decisive.

Not sure how this works with VA’s “one term” governor though.

Ahh, more contempt by the Democrats for the will of the voters. I’m sure there’s a method for voters in Virginia to handle this matter, should they actually be outraged enough about something that happened decades ago.

I strongly suspect that not only are they not so moved, but also don’t particularly care what the opinions are from some junior senator from California and a mayor in Texas.

But of course, those opinions are more important than the choice of the voters in Virginia. Just continuing the theme - elect whom you please, and then we’ll just remove them from office for some offense or another that we just make up as a crime.

2020 is going to go down as the ‘racist’ election, where ‘white power’ pushes forward to ‘deny people of color and women and LGBTQWERTY their due rights...’ Probably with a couple nice riots thrown in for good measure, before and after the election.

What about spurtucuss? Yeah, deciding to let the tissue mass live or die is just not as awful as appearing in black face or kkk dress. So, which one was he? I look at it as a tribute to show that different folks can get along despite their different views. Unlike today.

Wow - Democrat governor caught cavorting with black-face, KKK robed figures - former Democrat vice-president caught saying busing for racial balance isn’t necessary and blacks don’t want desegregation - pretty soon the public is going to catch on to the Democrat, not the Republican, being the racist party....

I think he’s a good candidate for a late-term abortion.

Maybe Harris can resign for sleeping her way up her political ladder all these years.

What a joke these so called politicians are, She praises him for winning and standing up to hatred and bigotry in 2017, Now in 2019 she is calling him a racist and bigot for his pictures
from years ago.

Pathetic.

Ah, I love the rancid, sickly-sweet stench of raw, hypocritical Leftist cannibalism in the morning. Or evening. Whichever. Napalm for the political soul. Can’t wait from the response from Nazi Lugosi. She’s about one more nervous tic away from being wheeled off on an ambulance gurney as it is. I’m predicting she’s gonna go out like that robot in Lost In Space when they pulled the power pack off it. Her eyes are gonna dim and slam shut, and she’ll bend over at the waist, leaning off to one side like some Bowery drunk.

Hey, how utterly convenient it is that the Lt. Governor just happens to be African American!

Wow! Just in time for the 2020 Election and just when Old Dominion is turning from a purple state to solid blue!

What better way to turn out the black vote in 2020?

Will Infantacide rule the day and the Demonic-rat party under the African-American governor?

Will he help a black presidential candidate win VA?

Is he a radical Democrat, too?

The Demonic-Rats are willing to dump Northam because of his replacement's race!

Any word on Harris taking back her congratulatory election compliment to him about Virginia not standing for hatred and bigotry?

I’d bet we’ll never hear a word out of her on that.

The only reason he is toast is that the election season has started, and candidates have to one up each other flogging him.


Not only that but expect that within minutes of his impending resignation dems and their media accomplices cite it as the left “having no tolerance for racism, while the right is silent on the racism in and at the top of their party”.

Relax. It’s Friday. By Monday all will be forgiven.

Or forgotten, which, to democrats/progressives, media minions and useful idiots is pretty much the same thing.

Northam still supports St. Sanger’s mission to eradicate “human weeds”.

And Planned Genocide OWNS him, bought and paid for him to the tune of 2 million laundered taxpayer dollars.

He’s HRC’s boy there, following in the footsteps of another carpetbagger and won’t go anywhere.

Word.
