Tom Hanks Exposed

As a liar.

New video released today by The Daily Caller pretty much proves that Academy Award-winner and Obama-supporter Hanks wasn't being completely truthful about being "blindsided" for a "few moments."

New video footage obtained by The Daily Caller indicates that movie star Tom Hanks was less than truthful when he claimed he was “blindsided” for “an appalling few moments” when a white man in blackface makeup joined him for part of a 2004 fundraising auction that benefited his children’s school. The man, investment banker Jamie Montgomery, also wore a costume including a giant Afro wig and a leopard-print toga. ...

But additional footage from the 2004 event, obtained exclusively by TheDC, shows Montgomery in full view of Hanks beginning approximately ten minutes before he joined Hanks at the microphone to introduce the auction’s final item: a giant stuffed gorilla holding a “dowry” of 5,000 shares in a pharmaceutical company.

One portion of the video shows Montgomery, in full costume, slow-dancing with an unknown party guest between the dinner and the auction.

Which brings me to another question. What kind of school is St. Matthew’s Parish School? It's located in the wealthy enclave of the Pacific Palisades, California, and if you look closely at the new video you won't see any people of color -- at least I didn't. But what you will see is a room full Caucasians not only not appalled by investment banker Jamie Montgomery running around in blackface, but perfectly comfortable within the presence of one of the most racist stereotypes you'll ever see.
