'America is MORE racist under Obama': Morgan Freeman slams President's Tea Party critics
Daily Mail UK ^ | September 23, 2011 | Mark Duell

Almost three years ago millions of Americans were marking a supposed new dawn as they celebrated voting in their first black president.

But Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman claims racism in the U.S. has actually got worse since Barack Obama took office in January 2009.

The film star, who played Nelson Mandela in 2009 film Invictus, told CNN the President has become a target for the Tea Party's ‘racist’ aggression

I don’t think it’s any more racist,
it’s just that blacks feel more free to express it now.

I'm sure it a fixed commodity, sometimes more is spent on advertising though.

I’m disappointed in Morgan. Thought he was better than that, and smart enough to know our issues with O have nothing to do with race and everything to do with Marxism and Socialism.

this kind of BS makes me want to become ouke
No Morgan or Al or jesse or maxine or any idiot who has to push 0dumbo’s bad governing and lack of keadership off as racist
They have nothing else and it has worked for them in the past,
NOT anymore.

Maybe morgan is too stupid to understand how lame 0dumbo is but most of america can see it clearly. there is NO color involved

Nah, he’s got him a squeeze who’s about nineteen years old. He’s just another dirty old goat.

Morgan Freeman, who I really respect as an actor, should STFU when it comes to politics as he clearly does not know what he is babbling about.

I've attended a few parties and am not a racist.  I am sick of being labeled as one by an enabling MSM.   I've never seen a documented act of racism or violence committed at a Tea Party movement ... ever.

Thanks to the most divisive president in American history! I thought Morgan Freeman was a dyed in the wool liberal.

I gave up on Morgan Freeman having any sort of credibility when he like married his daughter or whatever.

He’s a good actor, but that’s about it.
I wouldn’t trust him to be a spokesman for any kind of racial or social issues.

Believe it was Mark Steyn who wrote (broadly paraphrasing) `For liberals cries of racism are a conditioned response caused by the bursting of one illusion after another that they held as truth.’

Isn’t this the guy who is marrying his very young step daughter? Let’s listen to what he says!/s/

Americans have listened to way too many fools in the name of overcoming white racism.

IT SURE IS, MORGAN! This president got elected based on the color of his skin, promising guilt-laden idiots that the race problem would go away. But during his campaign, I listened to his alleged pastor curse his white Christian brothers and sisters as the Devil, and I have heard the head of the Black Caucus say that the only thing that has kept black people from marching on Washington over the 20% black unemployment rate is that the President is black. And his apologists look right past the way he has destroyed the job-producing machine of this nation and blame the current financial nightmare on all White people being big meanies and preventing him from ascending into the clouds, spewing out free money for the unworking class from every orifice. I have heard horrible, HORRIBLE racism for three years now, Morgan. The sad thing is, most of it has been from black people.

Morgan Freeman is really good at his job which is pretending to be someone else. This makes him an expert on anything how?
