Northam Promises to Get Woke - Read 'Roots' and Ta-Nehisi Coates

[GURPS]

Oh, man, this just gets worse for Dems…

On top of Friday’s news that a second woman has accused Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax of sexual assault, we’re now seeing reports that Gov. Ralph Northam told his staff that he will not resign:

NEW: Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam tells staff he won't resign; Vows to read 'Roots' and Ta-Nehisi Coates instead

Sure, a book report will make this all go away.

I don't know how others see this, but my version is he is trying to buy his way back into the good graces of the black caucus with reading two books and possibly supporting reparations.,


What a POS.

What a POS.

He should get a can of Brasso and polish the bronze Kunta Kinte plaque in Annapolis Harbor.

Yeah, this is like Weinsteins supposed one week rehab class. Just BS. A modern form of the classical indulgence, where you give the crowd (church) something they want in return for forgiveness....

 

[Bonehead]

He and his staff are just digging a deeper hole.....

I don't think he has anything to fear. No way the Democrats are going to try to force him to leave with no democrat to replace him.
Give it a couple of weeks and it will die down,

 

[Bonehead]

You are probably correct.

 

[Monello]

Like a faithful dem, I bet he has hot sauce in his purse.

Is this true or a joke? This seriously said he was going to read Roots?

 

[Hijinx]

It's his penance.

 

[mitzi]

It's his penance.

I guess next he's going to say he has a black friend.

 

[Grumpy]

I guess next he's going to say he has a his best friend is black. friend.

Fixed

 

[Lurk]

Fixed

But he's going to have to finesse the "friend is black" part with this "Lieutenant governor should resign" stance he's taking.

 

[Bird Dog]

It's his penance.

I think his penance should be to where blackface for the first year as governor ............

 

[Gilligan]

The writers at Babylon Bee couldn't make stuff up that's better than this.

 

[OmyGawd]

This is just so wrong. If a Republican had done this then there would be no end to the screaming for him to go. See the elections guy in FLA (can't remember his name) who got punted for the same damn thing after only 11 days. If they didn't have double standards they'd have no standards at all.

He needs to go with the rest of them, double standard letting them stay, bring on the new republican governor

Meeting of Virginia Democratic steering committee to advise Governor Northam on next steps.

 

[Ken King]

Seems Northam has really woke up. Now he wants the Jefferson Davis Arch removed from Ft. Monroe.

 

[Hijinx]

Next he will try to close the Confederate Museum in Richmond.
