Another Hollywood starlet bucking Hollywood’s traditions?

November 25, 2009

First, it was Olivia Newton-John, noticing how government-run health care is just as much about the money as privately-run health care, but without those pesky customer satisfaction requirements.

Now, it’s Angelina Jolie, reportedly – I repeat: reportedly - off the liberal Kool-aid:

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.

But don’t expect to see the Salt actress rally against Democrats on Fox News like her staunch Republican father, Jon Voight.

I did not know Voight was her father.

“Angie isn’t Republican, but she thinks Obama is all smoke and mirrors,” the source says.

And those political views are putting her at odds with Brad Pitt, 45, who is a big fan of the president and even went solo to the 2008 election party in Chicago.

“They get in nasty arguments all the time about it,” says the source. “She doesn’t respect Brad when it comes to politics, but, in the end, this won’t tear them apart.”

The obvious problem with this story is: who’s the source? How does the source know? Would Jolie confirm these things publicly, if asked?

The obvious problem with the way I’m handling the story is: this is hardly unprecedented for Jolie. As Big Hollywood points out, she penned a pro-intervention-in-Iraq column in the Washington Post not long ago, and has long been rumored to want the role of Dagny Taggart in a movie adaptation of Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged.”
