Matt Damon worried about dinosaurs, says Palin 'absurd'
Wednesday, September 10, 2008 at 2:46PM Matt Damon's expression is as sincere as an undertaker trying to sell you a pricey coffin as he pines, "I really want to know if she [Gov. Sarah Palin] thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. Because she's gonna have the nuclear code." Damon seems almost confused as he ponders the idea of Hollywood's preferred candidate losing the election to Sen. John McCain. And Damon goes statistical, saying there's a 1 in 3 chance McCain might not survive his first term. Damon might want to look at his party's most senior member, currently 3rd in line for the US presidency. The whole interview is so silly, I really couldn't even get mad. He says Palin was governor "for less than 2 years." He noted Palin was a "pick made for politics." He even alludes to the books she didn't ban, the truth having been declared by a normally left of center (my personal opinion) magazine Newsweek.
Damon might round out his education by taking a look at his candidate's credentials: (1)lawyer (2) 3 years as a biracial community organizer (3)State Senate 8 years (4)US Senate approximately 150 days. Please note: I ascribe the term 'biracial' to Obama's work for two reasons. For one, he is biracial. For two, I have a resume littered with years of community organizing and I am white, contrary to what New York's latest governor says about community organizers. In my role as community organizer, I worked with my black and white neighbors on the inner city neighborhood where we lived and sent our children to public schools unlike most Washington politicos.
Matt Damon needs to focus on making another one of those identity movies. If he depends on political expertise he'll starve. You can put theatrical makeup on a dummy, but he'll still be a dummy.

Obama's like Jesus, and Palin's like Pontius Pilate. That's what Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.) said on the House floor today. Then he talked about a minister praying. You reckon liberals know there's a man of faith in the party? And you wonder why the country is in the shape it's in? These are the people who promised change in the last general? What are they smoking up there in Washington?
