I thought this was odd: Morgan Freeman's voice on Lawson (NC-4, R) ad?

I heard this ad this morning, and I swear it sounds an awful lot like him and wondered what the hell?

Actor Morgan Freeman denied Monday that it is his voice in an ad for GOP Congressional candidate B.J. Lawson attacking Democratic incumbent David Price.

3. B.J. Lawson is an anti-war libertarian running as a Republican

He appeals to many who hate the modern GOP.
