What a terribly bad week it's been for Gov. Northam.

Today, there's this:



And earlier this week, a lot of people heard him saying he'd accept infanticide, though I myself gave him a charitable reading and never took it that way.

As for the blackface and Klansman photo, what's the charitable reading? He's not responsible for his yearbook page? Remember last September how seriously Democrats took Bret Kavanaugh's yearbook page?

I don't think the yearbook should be used to beat up Governor Northam. I'm sure he would extend to black women the same right to abort their offspring as he would give to whites.

The Democrats and the left made any silly thing done decades ago fair game for claims of outrage. You reap what you sow.

Bay Area Guy said...

As for the blackface and Klansman photo, what's the charitable reading?

The charitable reading is that young men do stupid stuff in their yearbook photos, but since it hurts nobody and he's probably not a Klansman or a racist, who gives a fuck?

The Left has no problem with killing newborn babies, but 35-year old yearbooks showing poor taste? Well, that's a problem!

Gk1 said...

Hah! The democrats don't give two shits about his yearbook or his causal racism or thirst for infanticide. That was only for Kavanaugh and that particular tactical operation at the time last October. At the moment they are too wound up over that attack of the actor named Hoosits and his "Maga Country" attackers who tried noosing him in Chicago, the very heart of "Trump Country"

Two-eyed Jack said...

I have always thought that someone should propose a bill banning "so-called caesarian-and-sledgehammer" abortions, not because they exist, but just to see who would oppose it.

Now it seems that time has passed me by and people (well Democratic governors, at least) are talking about keeping the newborn infant comfortable prior to the abortion.

Owen said...

Two-eyed Jack: "...keeping the newborn infant comfortable..." In a world without God, the absence of pain is all that matters.

Dave Begley said...

He was a Med School graduate in 1984. I can't imagine a Creighton or Nebraska Med School graduate with those public photos in 1984.

Northam should resign immediately or be impeached. I'm outraged.

It all fits together, perhaps, if you consider there might be a racially disparate impact to the extreme abortion policy he advocates.

There were two things going on.
1. Abortion of normal babies up to the hour of birth (already passed in NY?).
2. "Euthanatizing" babies with severe birth defects after birth - which is what the Governor was talking about on camera, but still is considered murder just about anywhere in the world.

Who is preventing blacks from voting today? Name names! We want details.

And it was 34 years ago; not 40.

I knew the Creighton Medical School Class of 1984 very well. Not a single person would have even thought of posing in photos like that.

It will be interesting to see whether the left wing outrage machine goes after a Democratic governor who is an enthusiastic cheerleader for an extreme abortion bill. Who am I kidding? He may have to grovel a bit but he will survive because he is not a Republican. And the price of survival will be that he toe the leftist line.

Skeptical Voter said...

Well Northam said he likes beer. Kavanugh liked beer and that was a scandal.

Northam's alma mater was the Virginia Military Institute. Two natiaonl college fraternities were founded there in the late 1860s---Sigma Nu (by three Confederate veterans) and Alpha Tau Omega (presumably also by Confederate veterans--I know about Sigma Nu since I was a member).
So he went to a school where racists founded fraternities.


Medical school students are not the ladies and gentlemen of good taste that we would like them to be. Northam's med school (or maybe Northam) did the black face and KKK hoods. I have a friend who fronted a medical school student rock band at the University of Kentucky Medical school at about the same time as Northam was at Eastern Virginia Med School. The name of the friend's rock band? "Prepuce and The Foreskins".

And finally this Virginia bill re abortions up to the 40th week mirrors one that Obama voted for as an Illinois state legislature. In Obama's case if a partial birth abortion were botched (i.e. the baby somehow survived the procedure and the doctor didn't succeed in crushing the skull) the baby was simply put up on a shelf and allowed to die.

It looks like the Virginia bill will allow the mother and her doctors to look at the newly born baby and say "It's disfigured" and put it up on the shelf and leave it alone to die. Or maybe the mother says, "It's a girl and I wanted a boy". Under China's one child policy, a lot of perfectly viable and beautiful little baby girls wound up drowned in a bucket of water before they were 24 hours old. In Virginia, they'll just be put up on the shelf.

When I was in elementary school (maybe 2nd grade) I wanted to dress up as a KKK member for Halloween.
This is in Canada during the 70s, and I just wanted to dress up as something scary that no one else was going to.

Didn't give it much thought afterwards until I saw that South Park episode where Cartman dressed up as a Nazi and the principal then dresses him up as a ghost (that looks like a Klansman). And I thought it was odd that they made such a big deal over it.

When I shared this bit with some coworkers, they couldn't believe I'd do that. So no presidential run for me.

I admit it: Me and two other guys dressed up as Klansmen for Halloween in the 1970s (1978-9 or thereabouts). To make it worse, we used altar boy robes from my church!

We went to a party our black friend was throwing. He thought it was hilarious. A fine time was had by all.

No high-profile jobs for me, I'm afraid. But I am unrepentant.

Gov Forty Weeks will get more grief for donning the white KKK hood 34 years ago than he will for starving/suffocating/sledge hammering a newborn today. And even then it won't be much. After all he's a platinum member of Nina's Burleigh's Club Lewinsky.

How come Ed Gillespie didn't find this during his campaign against Northam?

It really is shocking that Gillespie's team couldn't find this and put it out there back in 2017, when Virginians could have had a chance to reject Governor Blackface here.

Leland said...

I am not surprised to see a Virginia Democrat dabble in the KKK and blackface. It is what they do because that is who they are.

Kevin said...

"Why didn't his GOP opponent get that out before the election?

Because it wouldn't have mattered. And it still doesn't.

These things harm Republicans because enough Republicans fear being labeled racist. When one of their candidates does something stupid, enough REPUBLICANS stay home so he loses the election. When one of their representatives says something stupid, the REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP takes care to remove them from positions of power and make public statements condemning them.

Democrats never do this. Their voters have been trained that no matter how many Klan hoods their candidate is shown wearing, the real racists are always on the other side of the ballot. When one of their representatives is found doing or saying something stupid, the unions and churches and social pressure continues to press on them to vote blue.

It's OK, they're told, you need not worry about such things because you're on the side of righteousness and those with you are also on that side.

And if, pray tell, someone does something so outrageous that people might not be able to look past it, the offender goes on Maddow's show to express regret, growth, and a firey conviction to not just atone but fight to their last breath against what they just a moment ago they were for.

So Ed Gillespie just laughs, throws that in the trash, and works on getting out the voters he can.

And if you doubt me, just check back in a week and see the nothingness the media and Dem leadership make this out to be.

That guy just went to bat for infanticide. They're not going to cast him out for some old photos.

Why, you can hardly make out who it is...

Yancey Ward said...

It makes wonder if Northam knew earlier this week that the picture was going to be revealed.

It was hard for me to figure out why he did that interview and took those questions. Perhaps he thought he needed some political protection.

readering said...

Now several days of further coverage while they get him to say whether he is the guy in blackface or the guy in under the hood.

tim in vermont said...

We had a guy in kollege who dressed up as a Nazi. He got booed and it was over. Point made. Though if they had seen his collection of military rifles, it might have gone further. He became a dentist.

Unknown said...

Didn't Northam leave off his black co-candidate for Lieutenant Governor on some flyers? Now this? And he's out there calling for mothers to murder their unwanted. babies.... mostly black mothers, I'm guessing?

Maybe not, but heck, this is the new rules, and Democrats need to be crushed by them.

--Vance

Yancey Ward said...

This picture would have only mattered in the 2017 election if it came up during the Democratic primary- once Northam was nominated, the picture's existence would have been smothered with pillow until it was dead.

In any case, VA doesn't allow 2 terms, right- so Northam won't be running again, and there is no indication either sitting Senator is about to retire.

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

Media playing name that party.

hey at least the guy wasn't a Welsh miner.

Kevin said...

This dude got to be VP for the first black President and will probably run yet again:

“I think the concept of busing … that we are going to integrate people so that they all have the same access and they learn to grow up with one another and all the rest, is a rejection of the whole movement of black pride,” said Biden. Desegregation, he argued, was “a rejection of the entire black awareness concept, where black is beautiful, black culture should be studied; and the cultural awareness of the importance of their own identity, their own individuality.”

Clearly what should happen now is that Governor Northam should be kept comfortable, resuscitated if necessary, while the adults discuss whether to kill him.

Yeah, I've been wondering about that. It would obviously be in extremely bad taste to call for Governor Northam to be shot down like a rabid dog in the street, and might even get me a visit from the Virginia State Police. But is it OK if I suggest he be kept comfortable while some doctors discuss his mother's mental health?

rhhardin said...

The news is so fucking moronic. The cliche gotcha points are idiotic and unquestioned.

Like in Robert Frost, good fences make good neighbors. Why do they make good neighbors? You'd want to know what's being fenced in or fenced out. Usually cows. But here there are no cows.

Somebody can look up the exact lines. An unquestioned truth questioned.

rhhardin said...

The infanticide reading is ridiculous, but gives pro-life people a problem, in that they can't say what's wrong with it except by saying every fertilized egg has a soul dropped into it. The dogma does them in. No bright line at birth for them to take a stand at.

Whereas society at large can easily say that if it's cute, it's protected. That's how morality works.

Religion comes from morality, not the reverse. It's a poeticization of what came before it.

rhhardin said...

Gloating over stupid rules the left dreams up when the left gets ensnared in one is a bad idea. The rule is stupid, ought always to be the point.

Otherwise the rule digs in for everybody.

Charitable reading? He's a pediatric doctor, not just some politician talking about procedures he knows little of.

Out in the more Deplorable east end (why is the seedy part of town always to the east?) of our county, on Halloween a high school senior and his buddy came to school dressed as Adolf Hitler and a Jewish concentration camp prisoner. Fortunately for them, they are both on the football team and in 2B you can’t really afford to suspend decent players over such trifles. They were sent home to change and apparently no more was said about it. But I have no doubt that photos were taken and the Internet never forgets. If I could counsel these boys, I’d advise them to be as obnoxiously Leftist as they can manage for the rest of their lives. That way they’re covered.

In the past, this would have been my reaction, but those days are over. Now it's make them live up to their stupid rules. He should lose his job, his wife should divorce him, his family should be ruined and he should be shunned by society for the rest of his days. Then he should go to hell.

The NAACP? Yeah, who cares? That's all part of the Democratic Holier-Than-Thou PC Machine. The same with most of the other "Professionally Black" organizations.

My guess, and it's just a guess, is that blacks actually expect whites to have more racist histories than they often do, and that, if a white person is on the racial straight & narrow now, they're willing to look the other way for youthful indiscretions.

Besides, I think in their hearts, many blacks, especially black men, know that they couldn't run a PC gauntlet, either.

I'd really like to see some interviews or poll numbers.

GEORGE ALLEN LOST AN ELECTION BECAUSE HE THOUGHT MAKAKA WAS A FUNNY NONSENSE WORD - NOT BECAUSE HE THOUGHT IT WAS A RACIST WORD

My bad, I was young and dumb.

He should not have a medical license, it is easy to train good doctors, it is hard to keep infant-killers from killing infants.
And I am appalled that he did not resign this afternoon.

stephen cooper said...

By the way Ann it was a worse week for people like me whose parents discussed aborting them.

I love all my fellow humans, and I do not have any special dislike for any subset.

But my parents discussed aborting me because of (((reasons)))

and Northam has never been on the side of people who wanted me to have the right to live.

Pull his medical license after he resigns, if he does not resign, not a single Virginia legislator should ever agree to spend a single moment in the same room or building as this infant-killing supporter.

Rabel said...

I look forward to the upcoming statement from Virginia's African-American Lieutenant Governor.

You see when you - whether you are Jack Nicholson, who was almost aborted, or one of those cute Downs syndome kids all of whom were killed before birth, if their parents lived in Iceland - or me, the sixth of seven children and a child who would have been aborted if one of his parents had had their way - a sad but funny memory, since I know God loves me just as much as God loves the poor old loser who wanted to abort me - no more, no less, give or take ---- anyway, when you are such a person, and someone like Northam gets a pass from tens of millions of liberals for saying you had no fucking right to live - well, you feel disrespected.

Just kidding, I had a great week, but still,I did feel disrespected by our run of the mill average every day Klu Klux Klan governor, but no way something like that would make a great week not a great week, God loves us both, and may be the Klu Klux Klan gov will learn from this, and be a better person, and maybe even stop supporting the killing of infants after they have been kept comfortable.

But there is no way he should keep his medical license, that license has to be pulled, and I mean like tomorrow, even if tomorrow is a weekend day.

And Tran should resign too, for trying to excuse her "it is totally ok to abort a baby while the baby is trying to cross the border of a dilated vagina" because the "baby has no right to live" comments by saying, or implying by her cruel silence, that Northam was right to say that the people who criticized him were "shameful".

"The baby, if killed, deserved to be killed, or at least had no right not to be killed, and if you complain about that, you do not understand ....
it was the doctors and the mothers who killed the baby who were the only ones with the right to decide."

Pull that bastard's "medical license"
tomorrow. Saturday or not.
Governor Infanticide has no right to a medical license, and no self-respecting lawyer or politician should voluntarily work with him, or work in an organization that employs him.

Birkel -

what you said about abortion disproportionately keeping this country less African-American, because we all know that Planned Parenthood and their ilk work harder in black neighborhoods, is completely correct.

We all know that abortion would not be legal in a single jurisdiction of this country if white women aborted children at the same rate as black women. The poll numbers would shift, nationwide, by about 20 percentage points against abortion and those 20 points would be enough to get pro-life Republicans elected in every neighborhood outside of lost dead zones like Manhattan and Santa Monica and Madison.

Northam and Tran are a thousand times more racist than the average pro-life person, for the reason you gave.

I'm sure we'll never know for sure, but I'd say it was the Democrats who put out the yearbook, not the Republicans.

mockturtle said...

Do you hold it against him that he painted his opponent as a racist in the last election?

Of course I do. He's an asshole.

We Virginia Republicans remember the hatchet job that Democrats and the Post did on Bob McDonnell, an extremely capable governor and an all around decent man. Northam can expect no mercy from our side.

I think our state is about to get our second black governor (most of the rest of you live in states that have yet to have your first).

Big Mike said...

I might include that Justin Fairfax, the current Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, is generally regarded as even more extreme on abortion than Northam.

eddie willers said...

PS: His schtick during the last campaign was making his opponent out to be a racist (you can't make this up).

I was going to give him a pass until I found out about this.

How is that even possible? He wants to make it mandatory? I am thinking it may be time to consider aborting the mother, and maybe a couple of her doctors too, to protect the welfare of the child. We would, of course, keep them comfortable, and even resuscitate them a couple times if necessary, while we ponder the matter.

Jupiter said...

But I'm pretty sure we are ultimately gonna come down on the side of pulling the plug. There are quality-of-life issues that come into play.

Not Sure said...

What's the big deal?

It's not like he called anyone "macaca."

Not Sure said...

Looking at his yearbook page, thinking: "Let;'s see, posin' in a cowboy hat; posin' in front of a 'vette; posin' in a Klan git-up. Ralph, you jes might be a redneck."

Starting to wonder if he's got a Born To Kill Babies tattoo...

Welcome to Kamalalot.

Harris doesn't represent Virginia. She should fucking shut her fucking mouth.

The Democrat hypocrisy is clear, extreme, and delicious. That said, the Democrats are still wrong about dredging up old photos they may not understand. Was Northampton *endorsing* the KKK? It doesn’t seem so. This shit should stop.
He should NOT resign.

supports infanticide .... check

dresses up in racist gear in an elite yearbook .... check

gets to stay as governor of a state where decent people live .... not gonna happen.

he has to resign.
it is one thing to have evil opinions and support evil policies it is quite another thing
to make fun of people murdered by the KKK and to support infanticide and to have a history of mocking others for much smaller "faults"

They need to pull his medical license too he supports infanticide

can you read English?

he supports infanticide. He has no right to hold a medical license.

Ken B said...

Stephen Cooper
If he resigns, will anyone think it’s over abortion?

there is so much going on in this world

your question is a good question in this world

But I do not live in this world anymore, I am not that old but this is no longer my world



In this world,if he resigns, it will not be because of his evil abortion thoughts, it will be a KKK thing, and actually a phony KKK thing, of course he was not supporting the KKK ....

in my world, he is a rich man who has had an easy life and who will resign because people misinterpreted his youthful humor.


When I was little, 10 years old or so, my older siblings told me that my parents did not want me to be born and that they argued over whether to abort me.

Knowing that the world is not a just place was a difficult thing for me to come to terms with at the age of 10, but in the long run it was a good thing, only God loves us the way we should be loved.

Poor Mr Northam thinks he is a great gift to us from God, but we all know he is a midwit abortion-loving soy boy, He does not know that, but we know that, and hence ....

I do not care what people think about why he resigned, I just want him to be a better person. I need to learn some humility, and he does to, God loves us when we repent of our sins. Northam is lucky that people like me, who know what it is like to be the intended victim of abortion, pray for his eternal soul every day.

Big Mike said...

How bad a week was it?

CNN tried to claim he was a Republican.

DeepRunner said...

Ralph Wiggum...I mean Northam...won't survive this politically or socially. He was wounded by his abortion comments. This finishes the job. The doctor flatlined himself.
