The NAACP has had some ugly things to say about our new Senator Tim Scott. The people of SC who know and love Tim Scott, really don't care what they think about him. This picture was taken this morning at a breakfast at the American Legion in Goose Creek SC, the new Senator said a few words, hugged a few of the ladies (me included), then served up the grits so that he made sure he said a few words to every person there. Tim is not an elite DC politician... he is as solid a person, honorable, kind, thoughtful... an all around nice guy... it is only recently that someone pointed out to all of us that Tim is black... we had not noticed that before.
Outstanding post! So true that some of these groups created to help, end up being so full of themselves they forget what they committed to in the first place.
ReplyDeleteI could not agree more. Tim Scott is a wonderful addition to the Senate and I wish he were my Senator. I was sad to see Jim Demint leave, but Governor Haley (she's great too) picked a great man for the job.
ReplyDeleteThe NAACP is trashing him because he does not fit their narrative of a black politician and does not preach the victim mentality they commonly use to rally their supporters.
God bless Tim Scott and may he bring common sense solutions to our nation's problems.

I could not be more proud of Tim than if he were my own son... I know his Mom and his grand father (who is 94) are very proud of him... his Mother was hoping he'd be a preacher, I've heard Tim preach the gospel... and when he's done with politics he will be a fine preacher some day. He is exactly the kind of people we should all be sending to Congress.
