Last month, when the Republican Governor of South Carolina named GOP U.S. Representative Tim Scott to the U.S. Senate, the “first African American U.S. Senator from the South since Blanche Bruce of Mississippi in 1881” according to The State newspaper, thus becoming the only black -- Democrat or Republican -- in the Senate, ABC’s World News didn’t mention it.
Fast-forward to Wednesday night, and ABC anchor Diane Sawyer suddenly found it newsworthy that the Democratic Governor of Massachusetts appointed an African-American to replace new Secretary of State John Kerry, trumpeting: “Look closely at this picture. That is William ‘Mo’ Cowan of Massachusetts. He will be heading to Washington, DC soon and straight into the history books.”

Mo Cowan is by far a HUGE TOKEN.
"symbolic gesture" short term appointment. Seat warmer..
search tim + scott + token
versus Mo + Cowan + token
Tim Scott had bona fide qualifications
This Mo Cowan creep has NONE . . . truly 100% Affirmative Action Jackson
Mo is Deval’s Butt boy. But at least he is not the real Butt Boy, Barney.
So it is bad. But it could have been worse.
So it was either the black guy or the queer....Either way an affirmative action win for Deval.
Massachusetts has an authentic Indian Senator
and its first black Senator according to ABC and MSM.
[Sen Brooke and the Indians slaughtered by
the “Indian” Senators greatgrandfather would be SHOCKED.]
Rather than WHINE, CONSERVATIVES that have the money need to buy, or open up, news orgs to take these clowns on.
Complaining about ABC News is about as useful as a Jew saying that Hitler is unfair to him.
