Maybe they should elect Liam Neeson the governor.

And it' ll be the end of him in politics.


The next election will sort him out.

He's not eligible for another term anyway.

Correct - as governor. But - that's frequently the career politico's springboard to federal offices...

It'd be a great time for him to switch parties and turn lemons into lemonade!

Well, he cut Tim Roth in half, seems proper enough.

And wtf was up with all the torches in that scene, anyway?

I was speaking metaphorically. I've never seen Liam Neeson in a movie.

Gotta admit that I'm tickled over the democrat's mess in Virginia, but this all appears to me to be part of the "liberal inquisition" that's been going on in the country.  First, I see no reason for Northam or Herring to be asked to step down for their "black face" episodes in the 1980s.  Why not look at their record of conduct since then to see if there is any evidence of racism during their careers.  If there was I'm sure it would have been brought up by their opponents during the last campaign.  Are we the same people we were 35 years ago? Heaven help me if I'm judged now by my actions during my 20s.  Don't people grow and mature?  As for Fairfax, I'll say the same thing I said about Judge Kavanaugh.  Let him be shown to be guilty before you condemn him.  Maybe he is guilty of sexual assault, but we can't just automatically believe his accusers.  If that was the way could be, someone could get rid of any officeholder just by making an accusation of racism or sexual assault.  I just read an article about some female TV personality of Indian descent who is being criticized for "cultural appropriation" for wearing cornrows.  Give me a break!  What are we going to do - accuse almost every black woman in the country for using hair straightener for "cultural appropriation"?  People have lost their sense of fairness and common sense.
