Gov. Northam, Step Down and Let the Healing Begin
The Daily Signal ^ | February 2, 2019 | Kay Coles James

Posted on 02/04/2019 8:36:34 PM PST by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

As a young girl growing up in Virginia, I experienced racism firsthand. I know what it looks like and how it feels. I’ve also spent a good part of my life defending the rights of preborn children to live and love among us. It’s my personal mission to fight for and defend the value and dignity of human life.

Most Virginians share these beliefs. They are repelled by racism, repulsed by the thought of infanticide.

This is why Gov. Ralph Northam must resign. Any decision on his part to delay appears to be an act of a man weighing what is best for his political future and not what is best for the people of Virginia and the country.

Racial bigotry and hatred in all forms must be denounced and the principles of liberty, equality, and freedom embraced. Northam’s cavalier attitude toward infanticide and his admitted racist behavior emanate from the same seed.

Today, so many Virginians like me are shocked and outraged by this man’s disregard for human life and blatant racial insensitivity. Because he does not embrace the core principle of the sanctity of life, we shouldn’t be so surprised.

Furthermore, the governor’s apology and denials don’t pass the straight-face test. There’s no question the racist photo was on his yearbook page. At his press conference Saturday, he admitted to wearing blackface to impersonate Michael Jackson. And he’s still made no apology for his barbaric comments about infanticide.

I’ve been speaking to these issues in Virginia for years. The record shows that I have called out members of the Republican Party and its candidates on matters of race—publicly and privately. And when I was a Democrat, I did the same.

Healing? They don’t want any healing... they don’t want the gossip... they want it forgotten... off the news .. so they can go back to attacking this side.

Governor a baby killer.

Lt. Governor an accused rapist.

Way to go, Virginia!

Tell me this is satire. Both these idiots are jerks, for myself infanticide is worse than racism and sexual assault. Ditch them both and start over Virginia. Good people don’t elect this kind of crap and then put up with it. IMO. What BS.

Hey Guv!

You hang in there bud!

I hope you're the best insulated pinata ever hoisted.

The MSM tried to give you a break on that infanticide shtick, but their inability to make this racism bit go away has forced them to at least mention your hideous, baby killing remarks.

I think he should resign, but I want him to spin in the wind for a couple of months. That will allow more time for more accusers of Lt. Gov. Fairfax to come forward with their “all-women-must-be-believed” stories.

Of course, third in line is Att. Gen. Herring, who is just as bad as the first two, but the Dims will be pretty damaged by then.

Hang in there, Gov. Gosnell! You’re a true leader of the DemonRat Party. A veritable icon of Progressive values.

Ask yourself two questions:

1. When were the Democrafts this frantic about demanding one of their own resign?

2. Why are they now?

“At his press conference Saturday, he admitted to wearing blackface to impersonate Michael Jackson.”

Now we’re over the edge. Mass hysteria has arrived.

He’s a liar. A very poor liar. He should hold no public office.

There is a bright future for Northam in the Democrat Family Values Coalition.
