Morgan Freeman: Tea Party Controlled GOP's Anti-Obama Goals Are 'A Racist Thing'   Updated at 5:08 PM
   
http://tpmlivewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/09/morgan...

Morgan Freeman thinks that Barack Obama's presidency has "stirred muddy waters" and inspired a certain racism amongst republicans and Tea Partiers who say, "Screw the country; We're going to do...what ever we can to get this black man out of here." Talking tonight with Piers Morgan, Freeman somberly suggests that Republican anti-Obama goals are "a racist thing" that show "the weak, dark undersides of America."

"We're supposed to be better than that," he mourns. "We really are."

Citing the Tea Party and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell specifically, Freeman says that, "Their stated policy, publicly stated, is to do whatever it takes to see to it that Obama only serves one term," and that, "It's a racist thing."

Asked if he is disappointed with Obama, Freeman is keeps close to his idealism. "Kind of, but I so understood that he was trying to hold onto his own promise," he reasoned, presenting Obama as more than just a black president. "He would be the President of all the people."

I keep forgetting that we are supposed to ignore the job that 0bama is doing, and say he's doing a great job, because he is black.  :mental:

2. That argument is a loser
   
The racism charge has been so overused that many people would interpret the claim as a tacit admission you can win based on the facts.

3. Doesn't make it any less true though...
   
...the teanuts are a bunch of racist thugs..

If you wanna see racism, just go up to a liberal and mention, Allen West, Herman Cain, or Condi Rice.
I guarantee you will see racism exposed.

If 0bama wasn't black, I wonder what the charge would be. I would guess that they would say we are just haters, and considering the way they treated President Bush, they would look just as stupid as they do now.

Another good example of the libs racism is to show them a black person who doesn't like or agree with Obama.  Yikes, it gets ugly.

I'm tired of their lame-a#$ screaming of racism.  I have multiple reasons to not agree with Obama and other dems.  It's about liberal policies.  I don't care who is proposing them.

They can't argue that 0bama is doing a good job, so they deflect by playing the racism card, it's the oldest trick in their book.

Morgan Freeman... the guy who divorced his wife of 26 years so he could have a relationship with his step granddaughter. Now there's a guy whose decision making skills beyond reproach.

That story made me do a 180 on him.  Every time I see his face now I think of how that 17 year old was seeing it.  What an old perv!!

I hate Obama's white half for being so stupid....but then...you know...his mother was a communist so I guess that half is just going along for the golf and government freebies.

Yup, I thought the guy had a bit of common sense, myself.
It's Hollywood.
They are far more "informed" than us poor peons.

I like Morgan Freeman. Apparently I don't agree with him on this issue. I think when it comes to the race issue he should follow his own advice from the 60 Minutes interview below.

I admit it. I do not like 0bama as president because of his color, RED.

I am glad that the racists are screaming racism so early. This is going to burn out early with those that the taunt would  actually have worked on.

0bama is a SCOAMF and can't run on his record so there is nothing left but the race card.

This was one of my favorite Ramirez cartoons to fight the racist in 2008.

Morgan Freeman also cheated on his wife and got caught after wrecking his car while his flavor of the week gave him a lap happy.

The State Troopers found him in his car with his pants down.

Add that to having sex with a child he raised as his granddaughter and I say who gives a damn what that old nasty man says.
