VA Governor Northam Goes All Swanee

...if not worse.

If he is forced to step down perhaps he could team up with Megan Kelly on the news magazine type show. He could focus on politics while Megan could give make up advice.

I guess Paula Deen could join them for a cooking segment.

They'll have a segment titled "Who is actually offended by Blackface?" and not interview a single black person, then conclude it's not racist.

Now the Lt. Gov. Fairfax, who routinely walks around in black face, because he?s black, who would succeed Northam, is in some water of his own facing allegations of sexual assault.

I think I heard that the woman who has accused him is a long time Democratic activist.

It's absolutely shocking to me that the media isn't covering the sexual assault allegations of his potential replacement. I'm perhaps more shocked that not one Dem in Congress has had anything to say about it. #Neveragain #Believewomen Did I say how shocked I was? Because I'm really shocked by this.

Edit: sorry wrong hashtag, I meant #metoo, not #neveragain - there is no mass shooting involved here.

They're going do a remake, except this time the applicant is a white chick who claims to be Native American and shows up at the interview in full ceremonial attire and puts on a rain dance.

The name of the movie is going to be Pocahontas.

This story got on my radar. Via google news, I think. I don't remember who wrote the story, but it's popular enough for their algorithm.

It seems like it?s being pretty well covered to me.

I think it broke yesterday.

Fairfax is claiming that it?s false and these false allegations as he describes them are just coming out now and he is implying that Northam is behind it to distract from his own trouble.

I was unaware of that Soul Man movie. dang.


1986 was a great year for movies! Top Gun, Aliens, Short Circuit, Platoon, Crocodile Dundee, Star Trek with whales, Ferris Bueller's Day Off...


Soul Man was the #36 movie in ticket sales that year. #35 was Hoosiers.

The year I turned 21 is there a correlation. Yes, I think there is..

Northam got his medical degree in '84, so back before this movie came out.

Finally, I've been waiting to see Elizabeth Warren doing a rain dance.

Well obviously Elizabeth Warren is not going to be playing herself.

The producers seem to be wanting to attach Felicity Jones; it might depend on how it goes with On the Basis of Sex.

Isn't she too young and English to play Warren? I think Warren would be fine she's been acting her whole life.

She would be playing Warren when Warren was much younger.

As far as being too English?

I kind of think she could pull it off.

I honestly never watched anything she's been in so I wouldn't know..

I'm talking about the level of attention it's getting, particularly relative to the allegations against Brett Kavanagh as well as Dem politicians refusal to speak on it - I saw tweet where a presumably conservative blogger asked 10 Dem congressPEOPLE to comment and got zero responses, several of them saying they hadn't heard about it which is odd since it's being so well covered. But I did say it's not getting covered and your algo picked it up, so I guess I was wrong. There's no difference.

How about Cortez, she obviously knows how to dance.
