It only took him what, two weeks to come up with that one? Will this be the "left hand defense" or the "right hand defense"? Problem is, there are no photos of him using his left hand for much of anything. He waves, writes, etc. with his right hand. This man is pathetic! First it was him and he was so sorry. Then it was he didn't know if it was him. Then it wasn't him! His potential replacement is not any better. Virginia needs a do over badly!

 

Critics: Ralph Northam can't possibly come up with another way to explain himself out of the yearbook mess.

Northam: Hold my beer.

The embattled Virginia governor says he's certain he's not one of the two men shown in a racist photo in his 1984 medical school yearbook -- because the men in the photo are holding beers in their right hands while he’s left-handed.

Northam, who initially apologized for the racist photo, but later backtracked and said he doesn’t believe he’s actually in it, has been fighting for his political life ever since the picture showing a man in blackface and a man in Ku Klux Klan garb emerged Feb. 1.

LIBERAL HYPOCRISY: DEMOCRATS' CALLS FOR NORTHAM TO RESIGN FADE AS THREE SCANDALS THROW VIRGINIA INTO CHAOS

Most top Democrats and his party have issued statements calling for him to resign amid the controversy, but Northam insists on his innocence and is trying to convince others that the picture was added to the yearbook by mistake and doesn’t feature him.

Northam reportedly told his staff that the photo struck him as odd because, while attending the medical school, he particularly had trouble using his right hand and even struggled to use a scalpel with it.

He claimed that his left hand is his dominant hand and pointed out that another picture in the yearbook shows him holding a beer with his left hand.

VIRGINIA DEMS REPEAT CALL FOR NORTHAM TO RESIGN, BUT NOT FAIRFAX OR HERRING

But the latest theory isn’t convincing many on social media, with many users noting that Northam, even while being left-handed, has been pictured comfortably using his right hand, including to hold beer and sign bills.

Northam, who admitted wearing blackface as part of a Michael Jackson costume in a different instance the same year, is looking for ways to withstand the calls to resign by coming up with policy initiatives that tackle Virginia’s history of racism.

He’s also begun a learning process and started reading works written by black Americans, according to the outlet. The books include the 1976 Alex Haley novel “Roots” in addition to the Ta-Nehisi Coates 2014 essay “The Case for Reparations."

Good news...I guess. IF you have read "Roots" or seen the TV movie, or read books by other black authors, you are not a racist. So the next time a liberal accuses you of racism, and it will happen because that is just about the only argument they have when you disagree with anything they say, just whip out your reading list. I can go one better, Will Smith is one of my favorite actors and I even watch the stinkers he has made. There have been plenty of those too. So the next time a liberal calls you a racist, which will be two seconds after you dare to disagree with them, proclaim loudly, "I have read "Roots"!!! One other way is to ask for the racist post you made. That usually makes then disappear for a while.

Northam would like to thank the person that found this photo, and said, "it's funny, I have had that yearbook 30+years and never noticed that picture. Now that I have seen it I will have it investigated to see if it really is me. I am such a drunk that I couldn't tell you if it is me or not. Surprised I am a drunk? Do you think a sober, sane man would push for a law allowing us to kill newborn babies"?
