[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The democrats are uniformly requesting Northam resign and somehow the GOP on this thread are saying the democrats are overreacting, or this is somehow owning the libs. Remember who Northam ran against? A Minnesota carpetbagger who embraced "southern heritage?"

We expect accountability out of our leadership. That is why Franken had to go too.

Imagine if the GOP had stood by "family values" when the Access Hollywood tape came out. Imagine if the GOP had rejected Moore in Alabama. Imagine if the GOP forced Steve King's hand. Imagine if the GOP stood up for voting rights, one man, one vote and equal facilities for voting at the state and precinct level.

And instead, we are getting that 'the dems are overreacting" - no, sorry, the GOP has stood by as racist after racist and mysogynist have claimed the mantel for the party despite the rhetoric of family values, fiscal restraint and peace through strength abroad.

I don't even know what the GOP stands for anymore, but it is nowhere near the party I grew up with.[/quote]

Steve King (rep congressman, Iowa) says white nationalist stuff regularly (including in a New York Times interview 2 weeks ago).  Republicans haven’t even managed to slap him in the wrist.  Yet Democrats want Northam to resign for a picture  that was taken 20 odd years ago.  If Northam is a racist now, you think someone might have noticed it.  Sounds like he has changed.

What GOPer is nicknamed coonman?”

What GOPer has dressed in klan robes or black face and survived politically?[/quote]

The GOP are more subtle and thus more effective in their racism and racist policies that prevent our democracay from flourishing. Sorry if you can't see that.[/quote][/quote]
