In an appearance on CNN’s Piers Morgan show legendary actor Morgan Freeman says he feels like the Tea Party is motivated by race and their only hope if to make sure Obama only serves one term even if it screws the country. In his words, “what underlines that? Screw the country, we’re going to do whatever we can to get this black man out of here.”
And the LIFERS say…….

…. is right.
He is right…and the Tea Party pretty much has Boehner cornered in the House. It’s going to get UGLY during the election. The GOP candidates are out to attack Obama the man, not any Obama plan.
^this.
The Republicans have money and don’t care about the middle class and lower. They are willing to put this country through another collapse of economics to keep Obama from winning. They will not work with him at all as much as possible. Tea Party are a bunch of racist people cause they are afraid of losing control of this country.
*sigh*
from what I have seen of this Tea party directly from them instead of from someone else, all they want is a smaller government and less taxation.
they don’t like Democrats but they also are not that found of Republicans. They are not fond of Pres Obama nor are they fond of Pres. Bush.
They seem pretty equal in dislike (for conservatives). As for all this “they don’t like him because he is black” is a ploy straight out of Rules for Radicals where you say racism when ever and who cares if it applies. Are there racists in this “tea party”? Hell yeah… but there are racists everywhere. The party itself is not based off of racism.
I’m tired of the “oh he is black that’s why they are against him” line of crap. people bring up race more because he is black. if you disagree with him you are racist? what kind of crap is that? how do you sound right now?
Glad somebody has the motivation to say it as it is.
Everyone believes they have what it takes to help get this country get back on it’s feet. The Tea Party is just another group of politicians tryina get their piece of the cake. Since Obama has been in office everyone has been fighting against him tooth and nail to make him seem incompetent. He was given a 5lb bag and 20lbs of shyt to clean..
Where’s the party that’s actually care for the people that work 2-3 jobs just to make ends meet?
What about Herman Cain? Cain is running as a representative of the GOP and wants some of the same issues, such as taxation and the repeal of Obamacare, to be resolved as the other Republican candidates. He is an African-American, and hard working man who built a business from the ground up. Should people be classifying an entire party of people as racist, when that is clearly not the motive of every member of the party? Not once has anyone pursuing the Republican seat made a blow to Obama’s race, rather the way he is dealing with our countries issues. I believe that they would still be fighting to make Obama a one-term president if he were a white man born and raised in rural America.
