With Rep. Tim Scott (R) being chosen to succeed longtime Congressman Jim DeMint (R), a black commentator is amused by liberals’ demonization of the new South Carolina senator.
With this week’s appointment by South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, Rep. Scott is now the first black lawmaker from the former slave state since the late 19th century. So, Kevin Jackson of The Black Sphere says one would think liberals would celebrate the selection.
“It is the absolute picture of diversity. You take a black congressman who’s being appointed by an Indian, a lady of … East Indian descent, and she’s a female,” he points out, refering to Gov. Haley.
“Can you imagine what this would be on the left if they were doing it? They would be trumpeting it from the highest mountain peaks that look at how diverse we are.”
But instead of celebrating Scott’s appointment, left-leaning journalists and bloggers are condemning the choice, calling it Republican “tokenism.”

Don’t Liberals ever get tired of leaping back and forth over the fence on every issue? They WHINE that there aren’t enough Blacks in Congress then they WHINE when one is appointed. There is ZERO credibility on the Left. None.
Be careful when making those sudden, desperate, straddling leaps, Lefties, a small slip could land you astride said fence and that could really be painful!
Like in this instance. You want more Blacks in Congress but ONLY if they’re Liberal. RACISTS!
Yes they are racists. They are also communist. People label these people liberals or radicals or progressives or left extremists or Democrats because these words sound much more appealing than communist. But they are right inline with communism.
People need to learn about the 45 communist goals submitted into Congressional records on Jan 10th, 1963. Read through these communist goals written over 50 yrs ago and compare with todays society and you will see everything on this list has either been accomplished or well on its way.
Type in search bar – Congressional records Jan 10, 1963 -or- 45 communist goals from jan 10th, 1963
NOBAMA, you and I and others like us are going to have to spread the information far and wide. They’ll never hear it from the tv news. No one will call them what they really are. Liberals, of course will poo-pooh it in public and try to create a consensus (that’s what they do) that we are the crazy ones. But if we post it everywhere and often enough, and hammer it home over and over; sooner or later it may catch.
Hessitations 4:9 – He who straddeth the fence will receive slivers in the end.” So Libs, one side or the other.
