A Tea Party Invitation to Morgan Freeman

[Deez Nutz]

In case you missed it, Morgan Freeman made some comments a couple of weeks ago in an interview with Piers Morgan on CNN regarding the Tea Party and possible racist motivations in wanting Obama to be a one-term president.

Those comments caused a big stir, and this invitation by Ali Ackbar (a tea party organizer) was I think a very good response to the misconceptions that Freeman has about the movement.  He does a good job of explaining how things have changed dramatically in the South since the days when Freeman was young, and how racism these days is definitely the exception and not the rule.

Ali Ackbar is a real name?  Sounds like something from Mad magazine.  (Is there still a Mad magazine?  It sucked but it was better than Cracked.)
