Comedian Jon Lovitz who is best known for his time as a castmember of Saturday Night Live is now making waves for bashing President Obama. The Huffington Post reports that his rant against the president was featured on his very own podcast which is co-hosted by filmmaker Kevin Smith. The podcast was recorded in January, but just recently aired on Sunday. Lovitz says, “This whole thing with Obama saying the rich don’t pay their taxes is f**king bullsh*t. And I voted for the guy, and I’m a Democrat. What a f**king a**hole.”

Jon Lovitz doesn’t seem to be a fan of President Obama.

The former “Saturday Night Live” star, who made a name for himself playing characters such as Hanukkah Harry and Tommy Flanagan the Pathological Liar, slammed Obama on his podcast, “The ABC’s Of SNL.” The show, co-hosted by filmmaker Kevin Smith, is billed as being recorded “live from the Jon Lovitz Podcast Theatre.”

In a clip highlighted by Breitbart TV, Lovitz jokes that Obama is “a fucking asshole” for “saying the rich don’t pay their taxes”:

“This whole thing with Obama saying the rich don’t pay their taxes is fucking bullshit. And I voted for the guy, and I’m a Democrat. What a f**king a**hole. The rich don’t pay their taxes? Let me tell you something, right. First they say to you, you’re dead broke, ‘the United States of America, you can do anything you want, go for it.’ So then you go for it and then you make it, and everyone’s like ‘f**k you.’”
