To be clear, I am not in any way excusing or condoning the use of blackface in any era. It’s insensitive, horrific, and it should be condemned, but if someone honestly doesn’t see a moral difference between preying on children and a politically-incorrect party-gone-WAAAAAY-wrong ...

I'm tired of the virtue signalling. I don't care about blackface at all. I find the old minstrel show concept quite interesting. Do you feel differently? Fine. Welcome to America. My non-horror of blackface is protected under the First Amendment. Don't expect me to apologize. Have a nice day.

Nice pants, Guvnor

because news flash: going liberal is NEVER the way to atone for past racial sins)

Social Justice theology offers no path to redemption.

Same arm length.

Same Adam’s apple.

Same wearing of belt buckle to left a bit.

Same pants.

Hmmmmm.

Holy cow, check this out...Northam “We deserve better than a president who won’t condemn white supremacists.”....

Meanwhile, today over 3700 unborn babies will be murdered.

This column makes a whole lot of sense.

Social Justice theology offers no path to redemption.

Likewise a Social Justice saint must be protected by the MSM at all costs.

Personally, I don’t care if he was in blackface or not. I hate it when stuff is dredged up from decades ago, and examined under the distorting lens of early 21st Century Political Correctness, all in an effort to destroy someone’s life. Having said that, I am enjoying seeing the usually democrat tactic being turned against a democrat for once.

I also believe that this is a media inspired attempt to deflect attention from a whole series of setbacks, such as the Covington Kids, the Buttfeed fiasco, the infanticide bills, the collapsing of their latest “hate-crime” hoaxes in Houston and Chicago, the Don Jr telephone “controversy”, the over-the-top Roger Stone arrest, and their total lack of interest in border security.

Hopefully, Trump will exploit these latest media/dem failures to full advantage.

The hair looks rather similar.

Rules 4, 5, and 6 are in play.

Gop are evil racists .

Please Ignore my yearbooks !

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?

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Unreal. I like what one guy posted “Northam was the driver” LOL!

[sauropod]

Just what I look forward to on a Sunday morning - being lectured to by that asshat Dana Milbank.

That asshat stated that Trump is racist. Do tell.
