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

‘Their stated policy, publicly stated, is to do whatever it takes to see to it that Obama only serves one term. What underlines that? “Screw the country. We’re going to do whatever we can to get this black man out of here”’

Which we would say if he was any color. We are the opposition. Asshole. I like his acting...he was pretty good in “Blazing Saddles” or was that some other guy? I dunno, all those actors look the same to me.

Obama is black? I’ve got to quit getting the old black and white tv fixed and get one of those new-fangled color ones. And here I thought he was just a stupid sh_t.

That Communists don’t like the Tea Party is not news.

The other night, I switched around TV channels and saw something similar. There were three white males, all who were likely gay, in a search of about twenty channels. Two were very flamboyant and having dinner. The third, and this is no exaggeration, said during a phone call “Hi, I just want to tell you I am gay.” Click.

How about this (about the Dems) -

“Their stated policy, publicly stated, is to do whatever it takes to see to it that Obama is re-elected. What underlines that? ‘Screw the country. We’re going to do whatever we can to keep this black man in there’”

After the fiasco of the affirmative action president, voters are going to want the next president to have some experience, hence my placing Newt at the top of the ticket and having him groom Cain for either 2016 or 2020.

Actually Morgan, I detest the WHITE half of Obama. I barely notice the black half since all the RED he exudes kind of gets in the way! He is communist Morgan, not a BLACK man. Simple as that.

Off topic but I’m in Red Sox country and your username took me by surprise——John Lackey isn’t too popular these days,and that’s putting it mildly. Your name gave me a good laugh.

I’ve always admired Morgan’s acting skills, but this single event shows him as a racist moron.

Mr Morgan said that Americans would be ‘shooting themselves in the head’ if they get rid of President Obama next year after just one term at the White House.”

What happened to getting violent references out of political statements? OK for the black guy?

There was a time when I didn’t blame the blacks for their racism against whites, (Have you read the book or seen the movie, “The Help”?) Today I will gladly vote for Herman Cain, if he gets the nomination. Being a Christian I know there are evil people in all races, and there are good people in all races. We are each individuals in spite of the fact that Obama wants to make us the Proletariat.

That was exactly why I’m disappointed. I remember seeing that and my opinion of Morgan had taken a few jumps in the plus direction.

I disagree. America is much more racist.

Not American whites, but American blacks.

They were once in the closet with their racism and now they feel free to express it.

Obama is an incompetent, but blacks will back him to their last breath. Is that just plain stupidity, racism, or a combination of both.

I believe the answer is the combination.
