Matt Damon made the comments during an interview with Elle magazine
In his most ferocious attack to date, the Hollywood star vented his anger at the President's failure to bring about change in America.
He said: "I've talked to a lot of people who worked for Obama at the grassroots level. One of them said to me, 'Never again. I will never be fooled again by a politician,'".
"You know, a one-term president with some balls who actually got stuff done would have been, in the long run of the country, much better."
His latest attack was made in an interview for Elle magazine to promote his new film "We Bought a Zoo."
Damon, 41, was one of the biggest Hollywood stars to stump for Obama during his 2008 election campaign.

I’d bet my last dollar that, if Damon and his BFF Ben Affleck vote at all this year, it will be for Obama. Same goes for the other “disenchanted” Hollywood types. They may not send Obama as much money, but even there I’m betting it won’t be as bad as Damon wants us to believe. I remember a lot of the same lefty gripes about Clinton in 1996.
He even looks like an 8-ball now.
He will vote for him again I am betting.
Matt should then be happy that I’ll be heeding his advice and refusing to vote for BHO.
As if.
That idiot actually, actually bought the “hope and change” line!?!?
What a naive, dupe. Tons of money and fame combined with a sheltered, insular, uneducated existence creates quite a daft vehicle to be controlled by others. Truly he’s an incredibly useful idiot.
The sad part is that Obama isn't destroying America fast enough for these liberal asshats.
You know, a one-term president with some balls who actually got stuff done would have been, in the long run of the country, much better.”
Checking out his predications; Be back.
Yes he will... stupid is stupid...
So... guess which frequent Freeper WON'T be buying a ticket to see this movie?
We are taking the kids to see “We bought a zoo”. I know you all hate Damon but this really looks like a great family film. Hopefully you all will take your family to see it.
There are plenty of people on Free Republic who used to be liberal and saw the light. He is just turning 40 and having kids so perhaps he is beginning the change that people have when they mature. I don’t know maybe not, but I don’t think it is right to bash the guy for being ignorant.
Man, he is my sounding board!! /s
Who cares what WTF he says. Not relevant, and not worthy of even being posted her.
It looks like a decent movie. You will see it especially if you have children. He said he won’t vote for Obama again......why so upset with an actor?
“Hopefully you all will take your family to see it.”
Not gonna happen. I haven’t been fleeced by a movie theater in dogs’ years.
Oh sorry to hear that. My wife had me to New Year’s Eve last week. It was ok. I had my last pick and I picked “The Immortals”....It was EXCELLENT!!! We will go see War Horse this week coming up and then the Iron Lady in a few weeks and then she really gets me good when she choses “raise the noise” or something like that with Dolly Parton and Queen Latifa....Oh my....she owes me big time......lol. If you make it a date night with your (husband or wife) they can be fun. Dinner first or after and then a night of fun!!!!!!! (if you know what I mean)..... :-) Merry Christmas!!!!
“I haven’t been fleeced by a movie theater in dogs’ years.
A good movie is about 2 hours of total relaxation.
I go weekly and my kids and grandkids go about once a month.
I’m not being fleeced——It’s discretionary spending.
I do not support, financially, the careers of people who hate America while earning their living pretending to be normal people. Actors are scum. Leftist scum. Stupid, empty-headed Communist scum. No degrees. No education. Just an ability to convince the ignorant masses that they are someone else. For money. .. so... I don't support them financially. Why would you expose your children to a fraud pretending to be someone he isn't? Movies are make believe.
Watching leftists pretend to be other people? Wow. Some hobby. Maybe spend 2 hours volunteering or helping a friend or neighbor or reading a book or planting some food or...
