Thread: Matt Damon on Sarah Palin

Matt Damon terrified by the possibility of a President Palin

Screen star Matt Damon told the Associated Press that he considers the prospect of a President Palin to be a "really terrifying possibility."
"You do the actuary tables--there's a one-out-of-three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn't survive his first term, and it will be President Palin."

"It's like a really bad Disney movie," he continued. "'I'm just a hockey mom from Alaska,' and she's the President! And it's like, she's facing down Vladimir Putin using the...folks stuff she learned at the hockey rink. You know, it's absurd."
"The fact that we've gotten this far, and we're that close to this being a reality, is crazy...I need to know if she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. That's an important--I want to to know that, I really do, because she's going to have the nuclear codes."
The Raw Story | Matt Damon terrified by the possibility of a President Palin

I'm with ya Matt...........

I have always appreciated Matt Damon's advice on international political matters.

Matt damon is absolutely correct. It is like a fantasy Disney movie. This country spends 2 years evaluating dozens of candidates to lead this country and what happens? McCain is elected, drops dead of cancer or stroke and we have a hockey mom leading the country that 6 months ago only 5% of the population even knew who the fuck she was! It is absolutely absurd, hopefully enough people with common sense will say screw that, I am not voting for someone so selfish that they would ignore that possibility and leave this country in the hands of a hockey mom from Alaska.

McCain does not give a shit what happens if he is incapacitated. He met this woman once in March and then called her on the phone last week and said you are it. 30+ yrs in the senate and he didn't know one other individual that he had more confidence in than Sarah Palin? Ridiculous!

Karl Rove was speaking a month or so ago about Obama possibly picking Kane from Virginia as a running mate. He said the most important thing about a VP pick should be that they are capable of leading the country and that Kane would be an irresponsible selection. Kane, who was on state senate then Lt. governor and then governor of Virginia was not capable to lead the country.

Couple weeks later McCain picks Palin as VP and he says he thinks it was a brilliant choice..........fucking incredible!

What's fucking incredible is the left in Hollywood have completly ignored the fact that the Democratic candidate has even less experience than Palin. 150 plus days in Congress and a community organizer and no one's complaining that Obama experience is a fraction of Palins ! Lol.

Matt Damon is just another useful idiot of the HollyWood elite.

Damon's a smart cookie. That's why he supported Ron Paul.

I'm sorry but this is about as far as it goes with me.

He may be right but I don't hold actor's opinions in high regard lately.

Palin does not have a fraction of the experience in politics or Washington that Obama does. She won a campaign with a constituency of about 700,000 people, thats it. her governing Alaska less than 2 years does not give her near the experience Obama has and anyone with a lick of sense knows it.

There ya go, attack the messenger when his point is crystal clear and you have no reasonable response to it.

Everyone who disagrees with you is a leftie. Damon is no lefty.

He's a just another Hollywood elitist who's in bed with Obama, who cares.

The garbage man's opinion of politics mean's more to me then some George Clooney ball licker boyfriend's opinion.

We should head Matt Damon's warning, he was in Saving Private Ryan, Ocean's 11 AND 13, not to mention The Brothers Grimm, based on his filmography alone he shows great wisdom.
