President Obama was quite popular with
Tinseltown's biggest stars four years ago, but as he seeks reelection,
he's fallen out of favor with some Hollywood liberals.
The Week lists eight who have criticized the prez:
- Gene Simmons:
The Kiss rocker now regrets supporting Obama in '08, because he
believes the president hasn't done enough to help the economy. Who does
he like this year? Mitt Romney.
- Matt Damon:
He also doesn't think Obama has done enough (his beefs are with Wall
Street as well as policies from the George W. Bush era), and said in
December that "a one-term president with some balls" would have been
better.
- Angelina Jolie: Though she denied hating Obama, Jolie has criticized his Darfur policies and even said after meeting with him in January that there have been "very frustrating" aspects of his presidency.
- Hugh Hefner: The Playboy
founder expressed his disappointment with Obama back in 2010, noting
that the president should have been quicker to end the Iraq and
Afghanistan wars.

who called Obama "a huge disappointment" when it comes to civil rights.
