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.”

LOL! Of all the pictures to choose to put into your yearbook, Northam chooses this one. Why? Has anyone asked him that question yet?

To the demonicRATs, “blackface” is a firing-squad offense
Ted Danson is still alive, and he and Whoopi still have their shows.


But not Jimmy the Greek, the Papa John founder and dozens more through the years , sometimes for one chance remark or ill chosen word.
Ask Steve King.

they must have been sitting on the yearbook, knowing they could use it when necessary to get the rising star Lt. Gov to take his place.

Especially since they lost Georgia by a razor-thin margin.

I wonder what Abrams will talk about on Tuesday night?

That is what this is all about, imo. They couldn’t come out and rebuke him for his words and views on infanticide but saw the damage he was doing to the party. Sooo - they conveniently (and I do believe dems are behind this) pull this out to change the subject and make him history.

I love it when Democrats eat their own.
Amen to that!

One of my favorite people, Alveda King just summarized Northam perfectly. The photo shows his heart hasn’t changed. Margaret Sanger was KKK and she founded Planned Parenthood. He got $2 million from PP and is doing their bidding because he’s a believer. Never mind that he is a pediatric neurosurgeon or whatever. He is all in for infanticide. UNAPOLOGETIC MURDERER!

My thoughts exactly.

Can't use his middle name, either, whatever it is.

Can't use their affairs...

Can't use sleeping with the boss...

Can't use their drug use...

Can't use their racist preacher who married them...

Can't use their radical ethnic dress...

Can't use photos of dinner with their radical mentors...

Can't... Can't... Can't...

If it weren't an election year, they would rally around him, the media would let it slide, and we'd forget about it in a day.

I don't know. Racism, sexism, homophobia, classism, are all now the very lifeblood of the Democrats. They literally live and breathe identity politics.

I think Northam would be toast even in an off year.

Hey, Ka-MALE Harass.  What is it?

Is it a MALE?  Then harass, scold, badger, and persecute that patriarchal scum of the Earth.

But wait!  It could be a female, tranny, or illegal.  Then praise it as a colorful daughter, mother, or grandmother.  Give it taxpayer-paid surgery, sanctuary, an EBD card, and chain migration rights for aunts, uncles, sisters, and 6th cousin terrorists.

So which is it?  Quick!  Answer me, YES or NO!  No exceptions!  Answer and pay the consequences... then watch the Fake Media coddle you like an innocent little girl.

Heard this thru the grapevine:
“Kamala Harris”, her real name is is
Camel Harass. She could possibly be BO’Bs alter regendered twin.
Whatever, she’s an expert in spitting and hitting the target.
