'Butler' Movie Wrong To Portray Reagan As Racist

Former Attorney General Edwin Meese III says the portrayal of former President Ronald Reagan and his wife Nancy as racially insensitive in the new movie "Lee Daniels' The Butler" is not accurate.

Meese has joined with other supporters of Reagan who have been angered with the film's claim that Reagan was indifferent to South Africa's apartheid and the producer's decision to have liberal Jane Fonda offer an unflattering portrayal of Nancy Reagan.

"Ronald Reagan did not have a racially discriminatory bone in his body from his very youngest days," Meese told Newsmax. "He was opposed to any type of discrimination or mistreatment of anyone on the basis of race, or quite frankly any other innate characteristic."

They used Hanoi Jane to play Nancy Reagan. I will not be watching this movie. It's already caused problems. In a theater in the Dc area it was sold out and like any other sold out show they bring in extra security. Well some said it was racist that they brought in extra security. I'm sure if something would have happened and there was no security there would have been someone else fussing.

Between the Race-Baiting and the cast (Hanoi-Jane)...not interested.

Nancy Reagan would be rolling over in her grave.....if she weren't still alive to be disgusted....I wonder if she revealed her thoughts on the casting....

Although it is disappointing, it is not surprising for something like this to come out of Hollywood.

Truthfully speaking,Reagan had the weight of the world on his shoulders during his time in office.The attention was diverted away from racial issues and focused on what really mattered.

9:30 Actually Nancy Reagan recently said that she was eager to see the movie and Jane Fonda as her. She has always had a good friendship with Fonda.

I refuse to watch it because of Jane Fonda.

Jane Fonda had a secret baby with a black man.
