"Obama's a socialist." We've all heard someone say that, maybe you've even said it yourself, but when's the last time you heard an A-list celebrity say it? Angelina Jolie comes to the rescue. I'm sure the last thing you want to read about on a politics blog is celebrity news, but this is just too good to pass up.
Barack Obama does not have Angelina Jolie's seal of approval.
"She hates him," a source close to the U.N. goodwill ambassador, 34, tells the new issue of Us Weekly (on newsstands now).
"She's into education and rehabilitation and thinks Obama is all about welfare and handouts. She thinks Obama is really a socialist in disguise," adds the source.
Granted, this is from Us Weekly, but still, if it is true, Angelina Jolie just got a new semi-fan. It's not often that you hear criticism of liberal ideas coming from Hollywood. And much of the time, the Hollywood elite are downright hateful towards conservatism. For instance, Megan Fox.
Probably most surprising of all, Jolie's views sound very little like those of a celebrity and more like the comments from someone at a TEA party. Regardless, it's refreshing to hear a celebrity break from the traditional Bush-bashing rhetoric, especially an A-list celebrity like Jolie.
