Matt Damon Disappointed With Barack Obama

Matt DamonMATT Damon says he’s “disappointed” with President Barack Obama.

The actor — who campaigned to get America’s first black President in the White House — thinks Barack should have made more progress by now.

“Politics is compromise,” Damon told the New York Daily News newspaper. “I’m disappointed in the healthcare plan and in the troop build-up in Afghanistan.

“Everyone feels a little let down because, on some level, people expected all their problems to go away. But real change comes from everyday people. You can’t wait for a leader.”

Damon, 39, recently insisted he isn’t worried about turning 40 — because he has been told by his Invictus costar Morgan Freeman, 72, it’s the best age to be.

“I was talking to Morgan and someone said I was about to turn 40 and Morgan said, ‘Are you about to turn 40?’ I said I was and he said, ‘You are just coming into your prime.’ I said, ‘Really?’ And he replied, ‘The 40s are the best decade by far. That’s when things really get good’,” Matt said.
