My Open Letter to Morgan Freeman
jeffhead.com ^ | September 27,2011 | Jeff Head

Mr. Morgan Freeman,
c/o Revelations Entertainment
1221 2nd Street # 4
Santa Monica, CA 90401-1150

I am so disappointed in your accusations against the Tea Party. I can undertsand disagreeing politically, but to stoop to calling the Tea Party racist is very, very beneath you.

I have enjoyed many of your movies. You are a tremendous actor and have also represented many good causes.

I am a 55 year old white male, who is conservative and who has frequented Tea Party activites because I am fed-up with big government overreaching its constitutional mandate...from both major parties. While at these activities and events I have rubbed shoulders with, spoken with, befriended and worked together with members of all races, including many of my black American brother and sisters. Race never came up, we were all Americans working at the grassroots level for the greater good.

Here's the link to a picture from one of the Tea Party activities...and it summarizes how most of us feel about big government.

Morgan, of the current GOP candidates, I support Herman Cain for President as do hundreds of thousands of Tea Party folk. I am white. Herman Cain is black. How then can I be accused of being a racist? It is his policies on the issues I agree with and will vote for, not the color of his skin. Just as I oppose Barrack Obama because of his disasterous policies. It has absolutely nothing to do with his race.

I expect the Tea Party to impact the coming 2012 election in a major way, for just these reasons. Just as it did the elections in 2010. You will see much more of the same come November of 2012.

Thanks for many wonderful memories at movies, but shame on you for these incendiary, uncalled for, incorrect and misleading statements about grassroot Americans trying their best to help their country.

If you were true to many of the characters and causes you have played and espoused, the Tea Party would be a movement you would be trying to help.

Sincerely,

Jeff Head

You catch more flies with honey, than with vinegar. If Jeff went ballistic on Morgan Freeman, just how much of what Jeff wrote would Freeman actually READ? Instead of getting up in people’s faces, talk reasonably to them. One never knows when your argument may get through. It certainly won’t get through by creating a wall with ugliness.

Never heard that. Any links or documentation? Were charges made? That’s absolutely repugnant.

Which I sure did NOT admit!!!

All the sanctimony you can muster won't heal one person wounded by your counterproductive self indulgence.

To see him act in movies, one would think that he is intelligent and non-racist. His recent comments have proven otherwise. Sadly he hasn’t found the will to leave the Democrat plantation and continues to work the will of his masters.

Freeman is a homeboy of mine.

He is shameless.

He was banging his step granddaughter when she was 15 or 16 and he was early 60s and they now plan to marry after he’s left his wife of 3 decades

He is very common.

Who could care what he says, werr he not black he would be shunned target than rationalized

'nuff said. No need for more dialog. Tried to be reasoned and you, for whatever reason, are in full attack mode.

So be it. You're showin' your own colors.

Post 17 was a nice and reasonable reply.

But - box writing guy - you never reply to anything unless it’s mean or critical.

You may be awful clever posting in those little boxes, but really... Have you ever posted a reply that was nice and complimentary?

My open letter to this “Morgan Freeman”:

Dear Mr Freeman,

I am a reasonably well informed citizen of this country,
but truth be told, I have never heard of you.
Who the hell are you?

Regards,

Revolting cat/1

There are many actors (and actresses) that I reject because of their ignorant politics.

Morgan freeman is not only a wonderful actor to watch, but he also supports the South’s greatest contribution to music: the blues.

He is intelligent, and caring. I pray that his heart can be changed. If we were all truly racist, none of his movies would have made money, and the blues would have died an unearned death.

We know a great President when he works for us and presents himself as a leader to follow. Barack Obama is, and has never been, a leader. He is just a hate filled preacher looking for a religion.
