Of course the issue is the vile tactics...the question is how do you best get them to see how destructive and counterproductive it can be? They don't care what it does to the country as long as they feel it gives them an advantage. They have to see that they can be hurt by it too. Keeping in mind that they have no problem being complete hypocrites about it, do you know of a better way to get them to realize their folly?
This was a big part of the reason why Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump in 2016. A huge number of people hate the Democrat left's incredibly vile and anti-social "Political correctness" and "Identity politics" agenda. Tell me you would not have refused to vote against Hillary just for her advocacy of that alone. I believe you would have.

The backfiring of the #meetoo movement - nearly everyone that has been brought down by it has been a leftist - and the continued backfiring of the anti-white race hate - such as we are seeing here with Governor Northam, but with the Lieutenant Governor and his problems, crickets - has seriously discredited all of these initiatives, even more than they were going into the election in 2016.

We can help with that by doing the right thing and focusing attention on the much more severe moral problem when we confront these lynch mob style vendettas, which is the Democrat left's "Political correctness" and "Identity politics" agenda and the terrorizing of people using these lynch mob style tactics, and not whatever the micro-issue of the day that the mass-media is trying to whip everyone up into a frenzy over.

It is not even a close call.

It doesn't matter "who's next" because it doesn't look like Northam is going anywhere.


Further, the accusation against Fairfax doesn't rise above he said/she said at the moment - not that it means it didn't happen, mind you - and as such is certainly not strong enough to keep him out of the office should Northam quit.

SO minstrel shows were mainstream, no one ever imagined they were mocking blacks.


What was the magic date the world turned?


Before the instant communications of the internet we had to wait for the postman to deliver the mail and not one memo from the social justice or activist crowd was delivered.


The world did not always live with instant communication.


Using today's template held against the past is sooo wrong, it is harmful, divisive and destructive as victims becomes pure political fatalities.


Powerplay by socialists using black activists.

From the link:

If a vacancy exists in the office of Lieutenant Governor when the Lieutenant Governor is to succeed to the office of Governor or to serve as Acting Governor, the Attorney General, if he is eligible to serve as Governor, shall succeed to the office of Governor for the unexpired term or serve as Acting Governor. If the Attorney General is ineligible to serve as Governor, the Speaker of the House of Delegates, if he is eligible to serve as Governor, shall succeed to the office of Governor for the unexpired term or serve as Acting Governor. If a vacancy exists in the office of the Speaker of the House of Delegates or if the Speaker of the House of Delegates is ineligible to serve as Governor, the House of Delegates shall convene and fill the vacancy.

This really is one of those times where you get your popcorn, sit back, watch, and enjoy the show.

We're only midway through the week.

I heard a good joke today on the radio. The host said in regards to the SOTU last night that the last time we saw so many dems dressed in white it was at a Ku Klux Klan rally.

I never saw blackface but I'm a northerner.

I associate blackface with the old minstrel shows. Back then, people didn't know better.

Today it would be considered vulgar. But what would really be racist is people dressed as KKK members. They were murderers and THEY are racist. I'm a Democrat.

It just gets better:

Fairfax reportedly said "F that B" during a private meeting on Monday.

I have to separate the tweet address because it shows the language which isn't allowed on this forum.

Yes, I understand - "sources" - but in this case, he responds to "emotional comments" he made on Monday:

Gee, I just don't think he's fit to be the Governor of VA with that kind of anger and language. He just doesn't have the temperament. Isn't that correct, left?
