Voight hits out at Barr's Jolie-Pitt attack

Angelina Jolie's dad Jon Voight has blasted TV star Roseanne Barr for her "evil" attack on his daughter and her partner Brad Pitt.

In a posting on Barr's website, the comedienne apparently slammed the Hollywood couple for making millions while starring in "violent, psychopathic" movies - but only giving away a small part of their paycheques to charity.

The writer then took a swipe at the pair for not publicly pledging support for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, before adding: "Now go back to making your movies about women who love to handle big guns that shoot hundreds of people to death."

Voight is livid with the attack on his daughter - and claims Barr is suffering from the trauma of being abused as a child, reports Usmagazine.com.

He says: "We can never be surprised at what vile evil comes from the mouth of a confessed victim of child abuse at the hands of her own parents.

"(Roseanne's) parents responded to the accusation by going on the air and slating she is a psychopathic liar and her sister agreed."
