So once again the liberal left makes a movie that is supposedly based on fact but they bend it to a point where it is not recognizable. In the movie the Butler, Eugene Allen, quits because of Reagan Racism which is one huge, big lie.
But how long before the liberal left starts quoting the movie every time the name of our greatest modern president's name is mention. The liberals will make this movie the new history.
'The Butler' Presents An Historically Inaccurate Portrait Of Ronald Reagan
In real life, Allen was especially fond of the Reagans, as reported by the Washington Post. A good friend of Allen remembered, He often talked about how nice they were to him. Away from Hollywood make-believe, there was no mention of why Allen chose to retire his three decades of service as White House butler, other than that it was time. And in real life, Allen marveled to his wife how they got to enjoy the champagne that he once servedthanks to the Reagans gracious invitation.
Across the political spectrum, historians, biographers, and former Reagan aides have condemned the movies outrageous caricature of Ronald Reagan as historically inaccurate and personally unfair, many noting that the president didnt have a racist bone in his body and was actually remarkable in his sensitivities and warmness to blacks and other minorities.
As expected, while film critics have generally praised The Butler, if our Facebook page and the reaction of other prominent Reagan biographers is any indication, there is palpable anger over what is perceived to be an ideologically driven attack on a man that Americans consistently tell pollsters is their favorite president of all time.
