It’s been rumored for some time that Angelina Jolie is interested in playing Dagny Taggart in a movie version of “Atlas Shrugged.” When I first heard that a couple of years ago I thought she was just another Hollywood lefty bent on ruining the book for the screen, but some recent events may indicate an error on my part.

First, her dad, Jon Voight, is a proud conservative, and now Angelina seems to dislike Barack Obama immensely, if you can believe the source of this story:

“She hates him,” a source close to the U.N. goodwill ambassador, 34, tells the new issue of Us Weekly.

“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.
