Well nobody not really Tom Hanks find yourself of that controversy.

Tape has surfaced from.

2004.

-- eight years ago.

-- which Tom Hanks you can see here is -- fund raiser.

For his child's school Shane Matthews.

And he's doing this auction with a fellow by the name and Glenn Frey -- you may remember.

Fraud okay Eagles rocker image and yet anyway you probably know I know a lot about this.

-- the -- that if you also see in the background there there is a a person on the stage and there in black face which.

Frankly -- out somewhere.

Between the Ku Klux Klan and the and the white citizens' councils.

And I think that this is due back in its embarrassed tanks he has said now these in these -- service.

He said it was terrible I was hardly felt horrible about it.

But is well those things that -- -- the White House I'm not sure well but rose's it'll tell you again and again if you're -- public personality.

What every you do is gonna come back and it's on tape and that's when there is for example -- problem I guess in his life well so the question is -- it does this shirt.

Barack Obama.

I admire about the White House's I think that they blow the stuff pop off and it I don't think they dwell on and I don't think they worry about and I think it's actually more of the rest of America as -- -- -- in the first block.

Just so obsessed and calling everybody racist about everything and the White House and what from what I can -- and what I admire is that they don't.

Get into it so no I don't think -- there's -- White House and I guess timings had to apologize.

IE you know.

I think this is this smear against Tom Hanks he was obviously preparing for a role in which she plays a huge movie stars -- This was a -- preparation for the worst thing Bob.

The real scene.

Was back in the eighties.

What Tom Hanks used to -- as a woman I think we have pictures.

-- dressed as a female in order to Matt in order to get into what needs to warm.

You did this for a couple years.

It's disgusting.

And it's perverted.

And I don't know why anybody has brought this I am and brought -- -- -- -- over the Internet and download it's been hired no with that shouldn't have -- -- I think the campaign when they -- -- when they did that 27 minute movie about a -- and I seventeen minutes and read at all okay whatever.

When he did that they probably that it all is they've vetted the old eighties movies the tanks -- -- even knew that this tape -- out here.

-- -- And I don't care but the bottom line is Tom Hanks narrates the seventeen minute -- probe Obama reelection.

Video and he also produce.

The president of game change I think he can do it says is a day when.

I get -- town thanks races and but no but it just shows people are human cotton's situation it is unfortunate timing and dumping somebody in pulls this out because what happened with -- -- -- minute documentary it's -- really.

This is it all on how good luck lately are yeah.

I'll tell you what they will say about.

About Hanks and about -- whatever is ripe for a prize is that -- I've done this -- now is it if you're on stage was suddenly in black face -- It -- -- would have been to do decide -- -- out.

And throw him off the stage I'm not -- -- that is not Bob backed company that no -- people who have sensitivity to -- so in black face.

At the first all the schools and allow them to get on the states like that obvious -- themselves.

But anybody who -- red black face America today.

Wouldn't -- welcome back to death.

I did it -- but it was a mask of Shirley Temple Black cat that I will you well but you're if you hear it as your kids' school fund raiser near that big actor and near here -- -- invited because you're going to entertain everybody.

A -- maybe you don't wanna be like that that guy who runs the whole thing I like being this righteous indignation then maybe maybe gonna like.

Said something before eight years and he I didn't even remember it.

And that you know we got it.
