Morgan Freeman on “Black History Month”
rightwingbob.com ^ | February 1. 2010 | Right Wing Bob

As mentioned previously and reported all over the place, on February 10th there will be an event called “A Celebration of Music from the Civil Rights Movement” at the White House, with Bob Dylan and a smorgasbord of other artists performing. It is to be emceed by Morgan Freeman and Queen Latifah. Interesting, perhaps, is the clip below of Morgan Freeman talking to Mike Wallace of CBS on his attitude towards “Black History Month” and his idea on how to end racism.

Yeah, I was actually pretty surprised that BO didn't bother to show. If nothing else, it would have been a favorable audience, and he'd have had unlimited opportunity to mug for the cameras.

Might not have even needed a teleprompter. That crowd would have been pretty foolproof.

But, there's always the chance that a bigger fool will come along. :-)

And you're right, I've no idea how the community organizer to which we're referring is still walking the streets. Maybe because the current police chief (I think he's stepping down?) is a relative of a number of this guy's co-workers.

Man, I'm from the north and I thought that gov'ts up there were corrupt. We don't have a thing on NC corruption! LOL!

“I guess you haven’t heard that Morgan Freeman is having an affair with his step-granddaughter.

The National Enquirer isn’t my news source.

Nor mine, but when I looked up his name on the imdb recently, I happened to see it. I looked on google to verify it, and it is everywhere.

No I didn’t. That’s pretty disgusting if it’s true.

It's a moment for sane people to relish. But slobbering white liberals, who want blacks to remain on the Democratic Party plantation, will continue to righteously defend Black History Month.

Kudos to Morgan Freeman on his no-nonsense approach to ending racism.

Furthermore, I am no more interested in referring to black people as “African Americans” as I would be interested in being referred to as “European American.”

I must confess to not having heard that allegation. Sadly, though the message remains valid, the source will now be deemed questionable!

Yes, google, the be-all source of information. Not. Repeat a lie 100 times it is still a lie.

‘If true’ being the operative phrase ... now that we know what a racial maverick he is, it wouldn’t surprise me if he was framed/setup or out and out lied about.
