Mel Gibson On President Obama

OctoMel — Also Known As “The Anti-Jew” — thinks highly of Barack Obama, but the Lethal Weapon star has his doubts about the president’s ability to achieve all the things he’s promised the American people.

Well thank you for that insightful perception, Captain Oblivious McObvious….

Mel gave his two cents on what’s going down at The White House at the premiere of his latest film, Edge of Darkness, last Tuesday night, telling PopEater.com: “[Obama] is a man with an impossible task on his hands… He got left a mess and I wish him all the best but I don’t think he’s going to fix it in five minutes and probably not in his entire tenure.”

The devoted Catholic has never shied away from sounding off on the nation’s political leaders. Gibson once accused former President George W. Bush of “fear-mongering” during the Iraq War, and branded former President Clinton a “low-level opportunist.”
