Matt.,,,,,,Shut UP and act…….
I would bet $1000 that Dumb a$$ Damon couldnt even find Alaska on a map or even spell it!! What an idiot. He admits he knows nothing of her, but doesnt hesitate to insult her. Typical liberal.
Way to degrade women.
Yet another reason I vote the opposite of what Hollywood votes. They’re nothing but a bunch of uneducated, ill-informed liberal idiots. Hey Matt, I know you must have made a great deal of money from the movies you’ve been in so surely you can afford to get a computer and hook up to the Internet. You might actually try DOING RESEARCH YOURSELF and find out more about Sarah Palin instead of relying on the smears from your DemoMarxist party.
I love it when these out of touch actors spout the Democrat talking points. Come on Matt, try actually researching something before spouting your pablum. Sarah Palin never banned any books. You sound about as smart as Rosie spouting all the nonsense she used to put out before being taken off the air. Do you even know what an actuary table is?
Everything this guy says is really simplistic. I believe that having been mayor of a really small town or Governor of Alaska is way better than having been a community organizer or a voting “present” legislator like Obama.
Hey Matt! LOVED you on South Park.
You;re a complete IDIOT.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Maaaat Daaamon
OH MY GOD!! This is the reason I’ve given up watching movies. I can’t stand that actors/actresses see themselves as all knowing just because they played a part!! If only they would keep their mouths shut and stick to acting it would be a better world indeed!!
Team America had him figured out, didn’t it?
“Maattt Daaammmon”
Well gee Mr Damon, what in the heck do you know about Obama? I bet you half your hollywood estate that you can’t name one thing he’s done, one single accomplishment.
And as far as experience? If you would actually try to learn something before you open your mouth and remove all doubt of your ignorance it may help you the next time somebody actually gives a you know what about what you think.
Best part of old Matt ran down his mamma’s leg. Go act and shut up, Matt. An while you are at it tell the rest of your commie Hollywood friend actors to act and shut up………..
Matt,
And we know so much about Obama? Oh, wait, we do know some stuff. 1) Less experience than Palin. 2) Very shady friends. 3) Most liberal voting record in the Senate. 4) Tendency to make stupid mistakes when off script. 5) By his own admission, was not just wrong, but spectacularly wrong, about the one foreign policy item that he has had a chance to comment on. And finally, unlike Palin, if he wins, its not just a chance he would become President- he WILL be president.
So quite trying to dress it up behind excuses- your a lib, all your friends are libs, you can’t understand how someone could NOT be a lib, you think those that aren’t libs are evil, or dumb, and you’re not smart, educated, or experienced enough to understand conservatism.
No more Matt Damon movies for me. NEXT!
Tip to hollywood- stick to making movies and entertaining us. If you didn’t notice by the last 10 attempts at making an anti-Iraq war flick, we’re just not interested in your socialistic prosylatizing. We pay you to entertain us, not lecture us on things that we, the folks that, you know, actually work for a living, understand a hell of a lot better than you do.
Please just act. We like you better that way.
Wow. Good actor, too bad he is not intelligent. I Liked the first and second bourne Movies, but that does not mean I will vote for Obama.
Wow – the idiocy of these celebs is stunning – what is he talking about – who is the “we” in “we’ve come this far” – my gosh, without a script he’s just a dunce.
A perfect example of elite guilt ridden successful actor who knows he is not deserving of where he is in life and feels obligated to put up an educated front when he is obviously academically insufficient.
Matt don’t try to think, just read your script and act. Your very good at being someone else.
And Matt Damon almost looks like an actor…
He’s one lucky break away from working a minimum wage construction job, he should shut up and thank God the people of America are stupid enough to watch his films and make him rich.
Matt was raised by an exteemly Liberal Communist leaning Mother.He has been in the far left movement in the People’s Republic of Cambridge all his life.He has never fought for anything that is right except more money for his films which he keeps as millions ,who says he cares about, starve.He has no idea about Palin because he doesn’t want to know more.
And his commie Mom would Kick his ass if he ever did.Who cares what this idiot thinks anyway.
hey matt, i suggest you read this article
http://www.salon.com/opinion/paglia/2008/09/10/palin/
nice to know there are some libs who actually think.
Why does anyone care?
Ignore to morons, maybe they will go back to looking pretty with their mouths shut.
Why is he concerned with her ability to face down Putin?
His socialist crowd would make Putin our president.
How you like them apples…
YOU ARE AN ASS.
Well, here’s a genius in action. He is scared about her, but knows nothing about her, there is logic for you. What does this fool actually know about Obama? What does anyone know about Mr. “Present”. If there is anything terrifying, it is a former Muslim and elitist Liberal who has zero experience running a lawnmower let alone a country, and has no clear guidelines for what his plan may be to enhance the USA in control of all that is important in this country. That should scare anyone out of their seats enough right there.
“MMMMMMMMAAAAAAATTTTT DAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMONNNN”, I can still hear the Team America voice loud and clear.
This bum can neither act nor think coherently, and the sad thing is that there are morons out there in The Herd that will actually believe his rants…
This video is humorous. Matt Damon is not very bright, and that is quite clear.
Matt….a little advice…..act and quit telling me how sexist you are. I really could care less what you and your liberal losers from Hollywood think about politics.
wow…Matt Damon really is a “special” person. when is the last time he’s done anything close to relevant? i think these hollywood elites connect so well with obama because he is an actor, just like they are.
yet another member of the hollywood elite that will not be receiving my hard earned dollar…only movie i’ll watch him in is Team America.
MATT, I LIKE TO WATCH YOU ACT BUT YOU NEED TO DO SOME REAL RESEARCH BEFORE YOU SLAM SARAH. THIS IS NOT A MOVIE OR GRAMMY AWARDS. THIS IS REAL LIFE WHERE IT COUNTS FOR YOU AND THE REST OF THE USA EVEN THE WORLD. I THINK YOU ARE GETTING ENOUGH FEEDBACK HERE TO SEE THAT FURTHER STUDY IS WARRANTED. IF THE KITCHEN IS GETTING TOO HOT….
It wasnt long ago the press said “this election is Obamas to lose”. Thanks to Obama, his Hollywood buttbuddies, Demon-crats, and his other liberal friends that is gonna happen. Keep it up!! Good Work!!
If this is the way Obama handles a “little” stress, then we DO NOT need him in the white house.
Matt Damon who???
Matt,
Thanks for your assessment. Your candidate chose Biden for strictly political reasons: BARACK HAS NO EXPERIENCE, BIDEN HAS SOME.
You make my choice easier! McCain/Palin!
If he is so concerned about Palin’s inexperience is he at least equally concerned about Obama’s inexperience? At least Palin is a governor (executive experience).
Does anybody truly care what Matt Damon or any Hollywood hypocrite says about Sarah Palin or on any topic concerning what is best for the United States of American? When Hollywood goes to the Cannes festival, why don’t they just stay and live there?
Man, it sooo sucks to be Matt. The poor kid is “terrified.” I feel your pain Matt. We have lived for over a year with the fear of teh prosepct that a certain community organizer might have to stare down Putin one day. Have a beerl take a few tranquilizers; put on a Streisand CD. It will all be over in less than two months.
On one hand an excellent display of how really out of touch that the Hollywood elite are.
On the other hand a complete waste of internet bandwidth.
maaaaaaatt daaaaaaamonnn
WTF is he talking about? And we know EVERYTHING about OBAMA? Why is it okay that he hung out with the white-devil hater Mr Wright for 20 years? Why is it okay that he slips about his muslim religion and is correct\reminded that he’s Christian? Why is it okay for Obama to have a history of criminal friends? Why is it okay for him to have no experience – and get ON THE JOB training as president. OH wait, it’s because he’s a black man and that’s HIP. F U HOLLYWOOD – as if what any of you pompous A-Holes have any pull.
MCCAIN \ PALIN 08
Since when do we give a flip what you have to say Damon or any other of you Commie Pinko idiots in hollywood
Tom, move to California, embrace with the idiots.
Matt – According to actuarial tables you’re an idiot.
Well, Matt Damon does know a bit about really bad movies.
Matt:
Two things are “really really really absurd”
1. VP Palin has more expirience than the Dems Presidential nominee.
2. That you think your opinion carry’s any weight.
Pity he didn’t ask the same questions about Obama. The fact that he gives Obama a pass on this sort of nonsense and then slimes Palin gives the lie to his concerns.
Hey Matt, I got a great idea. We’ll elect McCain-Palin and you and your Film Actors’ Guild buddies can go move to, say, France!
You realize how close this guy was to waiting tables or driving a limo for a living? And he’s going to lecture us because of an accident of birth? LOL
What planet are you people from? It sad to see the lack of intelligence within these posts.
Ol Matt can’t fool me. He’s reciting Democrat talking points that Obama and Biden are afraid to repeat. So, we’ll put the actor out front and act outraged! Frankly, the kid is too dumb to come up with this himself.
And we care about what you think! Must be someone who needs to get a real life instead of a pretend one…. what a fool…
Could someone please explain to me what Palin believing if dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago has to do with her dealing with nuclear weapons today?
This guy is a typical lyb – throw out anything you can think of to discredit the candidate while never actually making sense! Not to mention the fact that they never questions the BS from BO!
Ol Matt can’t fool me. Actuarial tables? I’ll bet my house against his he doesn’t have a clue what an actuarial table is
The Obamatrons know it’s over. All that’s left for them is to throw baggies of urine and scream how it isn’t fair, that life cheated them again somehow. Then they will make up a lie to console themselves that the majority of America didn’t reject them again, but some evil force was at work. That’s why they are still fighting the 2000 election. “The Evil Supreme Court stole it from us!â€. No, the Supreme Court said you can have a recount, but you have to recount all of Florida, not just the Democratic strongholds. Three major news organizations went down there determined to prove Gore won by doing their own recount, and came away saying Bush won.
2004 was Ohio. The argument? Kerry was way ahead in the polls but still lost the state. “It must be those evil electronic voting machines (that they demanded,) rigged the vote!â€. They had no evidence, and Kerry lost in districts where exit polling showed him with a commanding lead, and they were still using traditional voting methods.
Well, I’m going to give them a Conspiracy Theory head start on the source of this next, crushing defeat.
Nixon.
Yes, Richard M. Nixon, late former President of the United States. Rejected by both Heaven and Hell, his spirit walks the land, reeking havoc on an unsuspecting Democratic Party. It was the ghost of Richard Nixon that whispered into Pelosi’s ear “Obama. Obama. You’ll still be the most power female in the land if Obama defeats Clintonâ€. With that Percocet overdose look in her eye, Pelosi replied “Obama!†Next he went to Harry Reid and said “Obama. Obama. He’s done crooked real estate deals too, just as you have.â€. But his words rang hollow and echoed back to him. He looked into Reid’s ear and he could see out to the other side. “Well, if it’s OK with Nancy… Obama!†Reid shouted. And the evil Nixon wroth spread among the Democratic bosses in Washington. “Obama! Obama!†they cried. “Sure, he is the creation of a political machine so corrupt it would embarrass Robert Mugabe, but he talks so nice!†“Obama!†“Obama! We can get funding for the Robert C. Byrd Museum of Critter Droppings and the Edward Kennedy Institute for Peace Though Happy Hour. Obama! Obama!â€.
And with all his unholy powers, Nixon went amongst MSNBC and whispered “Obama. Obama. Lift the burden of your white guilt and speak no of evil of Obama. Praise him and make excuses for him, and all will be utopiaâ€. And Nixon placed his hand upon the leg of Chris Matthews, and his leg began to tingle. “Yes! Yes!†cried Mathews “I can feel it! Obama! Obama!â€. But selling this Marxist Chicago hack was starting to exceed even his evil powers. “Satan!†Nixon cried, “send me a true spawn of Hell, a man of no morals, to whom truth is a stranger, and lies flow from his mouth like a river!â€. The lightening flashed and the thunder rolled. The odor of Just For Men hung heavy in the air. Suddenly, before Nixon he appeared.
Keith Olbermann.
Nixon looked upon Olbermann and said “This knob? Come on, give me a break huh? The high water mark in this guy’s career was a Subway Sandwich commercial. Well, you gotta work with what you got.â€. And with MSNBC in hand, he spread his poison around the rest of the media, who drank the brew like free Haigh and Haigh Scotch with glee and cried “Obama! Obama!. I feel so superior to people with real jobs!â€. Oprah drank a gulp and cried “Obama!, He’s so sweet and filling, and 0 Weight Watchers points! Obama!â€. Almost all the best actors in Hollywood snorted in the evil that Nixon brought them and yelled “Obama! He’ll make people buy ‘Lions for Lambs’ on DVD. We can do a Josie and the Pussycats 2! Obama! Obama! He will make us all reach “Clearâ€, and protect us from the evil Lords of Xenu! Obama! Obama!â€. George Clooney fell to his knees and cried â€Obama! Obama! Now I won’t go to Hell for ‘Leatherheads’! Obama! Obama!â€
And the ghost of Nixon smiled as his minions parroted his satanic message of Obama.
And with Hollywood and the Media in his grasp, the evil Nixon spread his message across the land to the masses. All those who opposed him were called racist and abused. “Obama! Obama! Make money at home stuffing envelopes. Obama! Obama! He will outlaw bad luck. Obama! Obama! A rich distant relation will die in Kenya and leave you all his money. Obama! Obama! Personal responsibility is over-rated. Obama! Obama!â€. Their blood hot with the fever of Obama, the Democrats ignored all that was bad with Obama and made him their nominee.
Slowly, the Nixon evil began to wear off. “What have we done?†they began to ask. “This guy is an influence peddler, who used his office to enrich himself. His best friend is an unrepentant domestic terrorist. He has no experience in anything resembling leadership, and the only thing he has ever really run is his mouth, and he’s had limited success with that. He flip-flops like a full net of tuna dumped on the deck of a boat. He was only in the Senate for less than 150 days, and his greatest accomplishment during that time was finding the Men’s Room. And he picked the biggest hack in Washington to run with. Oh God, What have we done?â€
And the Ghost of Nixon smiled. “Maybe I was a crook, but at least I’m not a moronâ€.
So all you Democrats listen. Be good, or the ghost of Nixon will make you pick another loser again. Tell this story around the Democratic campfire as your burning all those unused Obama yard signs.
MATT ….. YOU ARE LUCKY YOU ARE A GOOD ACTOR.
BECAUSE YOU ARE A COMPLETE IDIOT.
DID YOUR BUDDY BEN HAVE A GUN TO YOUR HEAD!!!?????
I THOUGHT YOU WERE SMARTER, OBVIOULY YOU DONT HAVE A BRAIN
Wow.
I actually liked Matt Damon, until he opened up his mouth in this video.
Wow.
What has he learned about Barack Obama? Has he researched Barack Obama’s background? His connections to socialists and communists? (Heck, this is in Obama’s own books…..)
He’s a moron.
I’m a female plaintiff’s employment lawyer in California running my own business. I know what I’m talking about. Obama is dangerous. He is a sexist, socialist, egotistical wannabe.
Note to Matt: Hey, try reading a book. You know, those things that Gov. Palin did not try to ban. You know, a book. I know it’s not an easy movie…….
I think there is a remote chance that Barack Obama could become president. And I think that’s a really scary thing…
Matt, you are an IDIOT, I hope you read these abd see how out of touch you are. Ditto to everything above.
Hey Matt! LOVED you in Team America!
Now….shut up and act.
Please Matt – you are one of my favorite ACTORS, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to push these opinions of yours to the back of my mind when watching you on the big screen. Please stick to what you do best, and keep your personal political opinions to yourself – you will be doing yourself and a lot of fans a BIG favor.
I would like to get Damon in a room alone. I would show that sob what I thought of him.
Come on Damon – BTW I will never watch another movie of yours again .. !
She has way more experience then that empty suit Obama.
Little man Damon !
Since when do we care what any of the commie pinko liberal idiot hollywood types think. Why does this crap even make the news. Oh forgot the media think we give a crap what that idiot has to say. Go back to your life of fantasy idiot while the rest of us make the world go round.
Did you notice the fear in his eyes? Too bad he can’t show that raw emotion on the big screen. He looked like he was ready to start crying hysterically. That is some of the best stuff I have seen in ages. Keep it up genius. “How ya like them apples?”- that was awesome Hugh
Just great….Now I have to add another actor to Hollywood boycott list. I liked you Matt but now you are just another Hollywood idiot who thinks they “know” politics. FYI–you are an actor not a political commentator! Your comments just cost you some$$.
Gosh, just like a barmaid marrying a dumb actor — What do we know about Obama — except is has less than 143 days experience in Washington — and he’s going to be with Putin????
What a sexist pig you are — I will never see another one of your movies again — you’re another one on my list of don’t see — keep to acting because we true Americans working our butts off in small town work too hard to spend out money on idiots as yourself.
To all of you in Wasilla — I wouldn’t pay a dime to see this nit wit — you’re just a small small town with a small minds— you need people like Matt to think for you and tell you who to vote for, because he holds a Doctorate degree in Political Science from a big ivy league school.
Notice he is sitting in a HUGE hotel room…looks like a Four Seasons. Looks like a Rolex on his wrist. Jesus. The more people like him speak the more he will hurt Obama!
I don’t understand why Matt is not terrified of the more likely possibility having a man with ZERO experience running anything as president…someone that has always either gone with the herd or voted “present”. How stupid do Democrats have to be to think that someone like Obama would be able to change anything in Washington…THINK MATT!!! I think you will be pretty safe in your mansions with your entourage to protect you…poor baby…
Matt – NEWSFLASH – You are NOT….I repeat…You are NOT Will Hunting – the movie is over…you are Matt Damon – the actor, NOT the genius you play on the movie screen….
BTW – The Bourne Series kicks ass…stick with acting!
Matt is like so right on man! If Sarah Palin had been a Community Organizer and gone to Rev Wrights Church,if she had stood up to the government like Ailes, and if she was pro abortion and teahcing kindergartners sex ed…..then she would be ready. All this tough on Terrorism, Reformer, Cut Spending BS…Don’t fall for it…..
Hey Matt….Your last movie was as stupid as you are!!
You’re idiotic views are exactly why I do not spend a dime on the ideas from the Hollywood Land of Make Believe! Why don’t you get an education and a real job!!!!!!
Hey Matt,
To quote one of your fellow actors (and a little editing):
“Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Barack Obama? John McCain and Sarah Palin have more responsibility than you could possibly fathom.”
Shut the F up Matt Damon and go back humping Jimmy Kimmels girlfriend. No one gives a damn what you think!
Do you even remember the movies that your acted in—I believe one of them was “Saving Private Ryan” – a very touching war story which still holds today, a story of defending America against our enemies, and portraying a soldier who wanted to fight for our freedom. You have no idea what you are talking about, and really do not give justice to any side, Democrat or Republican.
Matt has a right to express himself. So does Frank the plumber, and Alice who works in the bakery down the street. Frank and Alice’s opinions matter to me a lot more than Matt’s. I think the Fairness Doctrine should mandate that anytime a Hollywood celeb gets a microphone to give a political opinion, that same microphone should be immediately given to someone who does not have the same platform.
Theses people are our jesters. Why does the media value their opinions so much?
Every time some of those “hollow” wood folks open their mouths, I frankly can’t stand to see any movie that they make ever again. There are so many freaks and empty-minded people in “hollow” wood, and it just shows us why they are losing money. They are hand in hand with the MSM and the newspapers. They’re all sinking fast and are too stupid to figure it out.
Like several people say here, just vote the opposite of these actors/actresses.
Who is this little girl? Is he supposed to be famous or something?
“President Palin” is a much better future for America than “President Obama” or “President Biden”. It’s about philosophy and leadership. Its about democracy, capitalism, freedom, and enlightenment versus liberalism, socialism, moral relativism, and massive redistribution of wealth. I’d vote for Palin to be THE President before I’d elect Obama or Biden for Mayor of Mayberry. They’re socialists. Socialism is a disaster, historically speaking.
Whoooah boy — who’s writing shorty’s talking points today? Dinosaurs 4,000 years ago? Is that supposed to be a slam on the three major western religions? (Islam, Judaism, Christanity?) NEWSFLASH Matt! The Torah and Old Testament (which the Koran accepts) contain human history dating back at least 6,000 years (not 4,000 — you dope). Try watching a few Seinfeld episodes and you’ll at least pick that much up! Who’s Hollywood got lined up for Secretary of State in case Obama wins? Babs Streisand?
I just have to laugh at the sheer ignorance of this actor. Just like actors memorize lines in a script for a movie, he’s evidently memorized lines in the DNC playbook.
Please Matt, do the Obama campaign a huge favor and just regurgitate the lines you are paid to perform. These pathetic interviews are like watching a bad Disney movie.
Well, I think I’ll wait for Corey Haim to weigh in before I make a decision. Liberal moron!
Another left wing crying whiner just like Joy Behar from the view. They really need to do their research on someone before sounding off on them. Maybe they need to do MORE research on their Messiah Obama, they will NOT like what they find.
John Voiht needs to slap the crap out of this idiot and Joy Behar.
But Matt’s not troubled the least bit by Obama’s lack of experience! What a hypocrite! I hope Matt and George Looney will be moving to Europe after McCain and Palin win the election.
And why would ANYone care what this hollywood liberal thinks or says? Hasn’t Hollywood figured out the more they suppost a candidate the LESS the American people will support the
candidate, and go to the movies a lot less!
Matt…try shutting up and acting!
The spokesman for the Donkeys pranced around the barnyard before the farmer handed out the feed. You can lead a donkey with lipstick to water, but you can’t make them think.
Hey Matt, what do you know about Obama? You fraud. You know just as much about Obama as you do Palin, you phony hypocrite. You probably know more about Palin since the media feels it must report on all her personal family matters. What do we know about Obama? NOTHING!
No wonder the movie industry is tanking. Out of touch with the average American.
Who cares what he thinks??? I’m so tired of the Hollywood elite thinking their opinion is worth more than the average person. They are a bunch of ego maniacal idiots that are gonna lead this country straight into the toilet!!!
Keep digging that hole lefties!
Fact: Sarah Palin has more excecutive experience than Obama and Biden – combined!
Fact: Sarah Palin has a solid background in foreign policy and has made it clear she would do more than just stare down Putin – she’d like… actually lead!
Fact: The Matt Damon puppet in “Team America World Police” sounded more insightful and more coherent than Matt Damon or B. Hussein Obama.
Fact: Americans are embracing Sarah Palin from both parties and McCain / Palin are up 15% with independents. Get used to saying Vice President Palin and someday, President Palin – you’ll sleep better!
But Obama is a much better choice because he’s a man? BLOW ME MATT!
Wat to go Matt. Apparently you struck a nerve as all the right wingnuts are foaming at the mouths. You can smell the fear in here. Keep up the good fight.
Great Job Matt! Keep it up so that Barack Obama loses. Do you have any intelligence at all? You are as stupid as Brab Pitt! Why say anything at all? You are a nobody to anything but Hollywood and I wouldn’t give you the time of day. You are not Godly like you think you are.
OK, what is an “actor”? It is someone who makes a living pretending to be someone they are not! You can pretend to be happy, you can pretend to be sad, mad, glad, but Maaaatt you can’t pretend to be intelligent, because those of us who really are, can see right through you! This video of you trying to sound intelligent is some of the worst acting (oops, pretending) you have ever done! This may be why last weekend was the least profitable ever for Hollywood. We are tired of paying to see all your pompous pretending!
Matt when you climb down off that styrofoam pedestal that you borrowed from Barry’s acceptance speech, I’ve got a new word for you, go to your laptop, fire internet explorer and type,are you ready….GOOGLE.COM, then type these letters into the box directly in front of you…SARAH PALIN. THen perhaps you’ll get a clue.
…he looks and sounds like he is only one good bowel movement from true happiness!
WTF! The only good person that came from a hollywood background was Ronald Reagan! Thats what scares them…Palin’s politics resembles the Great One!
Palin/MCCain 2008
WOW – if that is not the most stunning endorsement for McCain/Palin I don’t know what is.
Note to Matt – You and your socialist Hollywood freaks will not get this country. Your man and your cause are lost, now shut up and go make another movie.
Stop talking and dance. I put my quarter in the machine, shut up and dance.
Matt has a good point. So if Palin scares him for lack of experience… then OBAMA should scare him more for even LESS experience.
Doncha think?
I agree. Obama AND Palin, both dont have experience. – problem is, one is actually running for president, the other is going to be the wingman.
“Dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago”….hello Matt, newsflash !! the dinosaurs died off long time before 4000 years ago. What I really want to know from Matt is how experienced is Obama in Foreign Policy. Just because he went on a tour of Europe doesn’t make him a Foreign Policy wonk. He is a leftist commie just like you. McCain/Palin is going to win this and you guys can retreat down your caves and brood for the next 4 years. Again, there were no dinosaurs 4000 years ago..M()*()n !!
News flash….no one cares what you think! You’re an actor, so SHUT UP and ACT! I am so sick of hearing what Hollywood thinks! Most are uneducated and couldn’t have an orginal thought or opinion if they tried.
I am tired of hearing from the self anointed Hollywood types. When are we going to hear from a hog farmer in the Midwest, a cattle rancher in Montana, a street sweeper from Miami, or an employed working single mother from Pittsburg? They have the same one vote as the Hollywood types and are probably more educated and articulate.
MATT! YOU’RE A MORON! IF YOU DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HER – THEN HOW DO YOU FORM AN EDUCATED OPINION????? I’M COMPLETELY BANNING ALL OF YOUR MOVIES – STICK TO WHAT YOU KNOW BEST.
I think there is a really good chance that Barack Obama could president. And I think that’s a really scary thing because I don’t know anything about him. I don’t think in eight weeks I’m going to know anything about him.
Huh. Sounds similar except– Obama is running for PRESIDENT, not VICE president.
Matt,
Love your movies but I didn’t know you were an ill-informed liberal hack!! The dinosaur comment was made up as a joke and she did not ban books. Even Anderson Cooper knows that! Get informed or shut up!
Why is it that Matt Damon gets to express is self proclaimes uneducated opinion against Palin from an interview on national television and normal Americans don’t?????
Because he’s a movie star!
I’m done watching anything that stars Matt Damon,the political commentator.
If you want to be a politician do like Arnald: Run For Office… I’m sure you’ll get elected cause your, like, um, so pupular there.
Well, it’s a good thing the other guy running for president isn’t lacking in experience….oh, wait…
It is so very interesting to know Matt Damon has political opinions. This video clip demonstrates one of two possibilities; either he is uninformed and unwilling or unable to become informed, or he is not capable of objective thinking or reasoning. The larger message is that one should not assume aptitude in one area of life automatically confers expertise in another.
Abraham Lincoln said it best:
“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.”
Matt Damon ‘pretends’ for a living. No wonder he’s attracted to a candidate who ‘pretends’ to be a Christian, and ‘pretends’ to be a man of the people, and ‘pretends’ to have morals and ethics, and ‘pretends’ to have the life experiences that would lend credence to his candidacy for the highest office of this great country! Like his candidate, Matt Damon is a lightweight — nothing more than fluff in a pretty package. Sadly, there are people in this country who ignorantly mimick the opinions of the brainless Hollywood celebs and whose only source of news comes from the hags on The View.
Over inflated ego
What the heck does ‘e know
Take it back to la-la-ville
Shove it up your coupe deville……
Thanks Matt…Are you gay? uhhh…so scared…be a man…or ACT like one!!!
Tell everyone you know about this, today, and remind them about it when his next movie comes out.
Sarah Palin is biggest liar in history, She only have courage to lie in front of 37 million people. Bridge to no where, pork spending are all big scams she lies about.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please give more interviews. Uneducated, millionaire liberal hollywood disparaging “the little people” are one of the reasons that Palin’s numbers keep going up and up. Maybe you and Ben and George Clooney could do more interviews together. Please? PLEASE?
It’s almost as if the Republicans pay these morons to say such things. Liberals are so stupid, it hurts (from laughing at them). I mean, that stuff like this is actually real is incredible!
Palin represents what really matters to actual American citizens. Damon – you and your liberal cronies do not.
Grow up. Do your job. Shut up – you opinion does not matter to us.
Matt is not an dumb guy. He went to Harvard. That being said, some people refuse to even really look at the other sides point of view and I think that is his real problem. I was once a liberal, now I’m an independant. I listen to what both sides have to offer and then make my decision. That’s what I learned in college, to be an independant thinker. To me, no matter how intelligent you are, if you don’t keep an open mind, well, like Matt…you just come off looking stupid. I wish he’d done some actual research on Palin before he smeared her.
Hey Matt, go make another of the exact same movie like you did three times with that Bourne crap. Outside of that, your career is over you patronizing little s#(t! If Palin did become president at least it would be with someone with more experience than that hustler and no good trickster, Obama.
Is there anyone sane left in Hollywood?! Matt, have you ever thought of doing your own research instead of just listening to your cronies blow hot air? Hmmm. . . many actors turn to politics. Do you see that in your future? People will be saying, “Matt Damon, what do we know about him expect he is a really bad actor?” Oh, and Matt, if Obama gets elected you better lock up your wallet. Since you are one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood, he will be coming after you first.
Dinosaurs, are freaking kidding me… That’s what you’d like to know Matt!! We the people would like to know how Obama will be oil independent in 10 years. Electric cars… we have black outs now the electric co’s already said they can’t support it, Wind.. not in my back yard hey Ted, natural gas cars/hydrogen…where can I fill up, thermal energy…plug into Hollywood hot air, The people demand our Representives to do what WE want.. do it ALL
Well, Matt, buddy, you just evaporated 1/2 of your fan base…and all future income from movie ticket sales. be smart…when asked about your politics, say, “…I keep it for the ballot box…” and you then can keep your fan base. But, alas, it’s too late. I’ll read about your career on Imdb….
Thomas Sowell has a great column out about exactly this kind of thing. People like Matt Damon never have to mature and don’t have to live in the real world.
Great actor, though. Its a shame he can’t stick to what he knows.
http://townhall.com/columnists/ThomasSowell/2008/09/09/the_vision_of_the_left
Reading the comments (if by “comments” you mean the trollish idiocy of loopy rightwingers) confirms that Damon is very correct to worry about the buffoonish crowd Palin reps. I guess you folks believe dinosaurs and cavemen lived together. OMG. The whole world is laughing at Palin for that one.
Mary, Matt Damon should not have commented publicy about something of which he has no understanding. People actually listen to actors because they look to them as role models, not because of who they actually are but because of who they play in the movies. Honestly, most of what Mr. Damon said was uneducated rant with untruths. Everyone is entitled to thier opinion, but he was stating untruths about a very decent woman, of whom he know nothing about.
The Bourne Idiocracy
Another Hollywood idiot who can’t keep keep his uninformed and worthless opinions to himself. And then again, how utterly predictable.
Wow the quintessential Hollywood idiot
who gives a hoot what any of these Hollywood people think. what do they know about what the average American lives with. Most of what they do is only in front of camera for their own gradificatiion.
Give me a break. Stay in L.A. and keep your mouth shut. Most of what they think and say is written for them anyway. Dee Comer
You haven’t done your homework, Damon. Look at Sarah’s record. She took on her own party to expose corruption, Obama wants to sit down with terrorists to “negotiate”. He is the one who scares me! And Sarah actually HAS a record to run on, unlike the Democratic Presidential candidate. People like you hurt your candidate.
No one in the running is fit for office. One solution: complete and annihilistic anarchy. Humanity and community need to disintegrate, complete primal survivalism needs to prevail and thin out the festering repugnant infection on this Earth-the human conscious and the ever growing entitlement mind set . Oh and organized religion…and hockey moms.
Thanks to Matt Damon for articulating the heart of the issue. There is a strong possibility that Sarah Palin could become President of the United States in the event that she and John McCain are elected. All of these emotionally-charged and visceral reactions that don’t address the any of the real concerns Matt Damon raises but personally attack him do not move us any closer to really understanding and evaluating Sarah Palin’s policy positions and ability to serve in an office second in line to the President. Instead of lashing out with vitriolic and dismissive remarks, why not consider whether Sarah Palin is really qualififed for this position and address the argument on its merits. Moreover, it is true that actors, athletes or other public figures have public platforms such that their opinions are often heard louder than most, but it is sad, and frankly un-American, to suggest that their opinions matter any less or that they should not give them. That’s the beauty of our public discourse.
Pssst Matt…
Get a clue! The dinosaurs gave her the nuke codes – duh! I read that in a banned book that was published on a blog site. So it must be true.
Wow, Matt. You’re much more likeable in a fictional setting. If you’d have kept your mouth closed, you would have kept some of your fans.
How ’bout them apples??
Absolute distilled leftist elitism, condescension, and ignorance. He admits he knows nothing about her but then engages in a series of wild speculations. And you listen to his criticisms and wonder, well if he is so concerned with experience, and not electing people for identity politics reasons, and if he is concerned about weak foreign policy, or crazy religious beliefs, then why is he supporting a do-nothing state senator who attended a white-hating ethnocentric heretic Church, whose racial identity is one of the primary reasons for his nomination? And note that scared Matty is going after the VP, while all his criticisms apply even more to his preferred President.
The fact that he cannot recongize his cognitive dissonance is truly astounding. Pathetic!
What is it with these hollywood marionettes that makes them think they are relevant in the political landscape? Wealthy, jaded, leg shakers who, by and large, have always had people kiss their buts and stroke their egos. I’m guessing a very few of these pretty folks have ever worked overtime digging trenches wondering how to get their kids out of daycare in time, only to have 35% of their hard earned pay used to bail out mortgage companies. I’d trust a unknown nocon from Podunk to run this country before a hollywood puppet.
There’s a 1 out of 3 chance that McCain won’t survive his first term, if you do the actuary tables…where did this figure come from?
Let’s look at the fact that McCain’s mom is 96 and doing pretty well. That could mean he’d have another 24 years left at least. I consider that better math than what he pulled out.
“The lunatics are on the grass”. The implosion has begun. They always implode. When the going gets tough they start to cry and question themselves because they have no clue who they are or what they stand for. Ok Matt, you had your 15 minutes, but you should have made better use of it and kept your mouth shut.
No one gives a F@#k what hollywierders think.
Matt, like so many other liberals, just doesn’t get it. They don’t understand America (OOH NOO, she’s from a small town!!) He’s following the demo talking points, repeating several ridiculous statements invented on some liberal blogs. Matt, use your brain (I assume you have one) and do your own research. I used to think Matt was the brains behind the Damon/Affleck duo. Now, not sure.
Geez Matt, quit having dinner at Springsteen’s house. I guess you needed the attention given that you just ENDED YOUR CAREER with 55% of your ticket buyers. Sorry, smaller paydays lie ahead for you. FYI – Your agent just wrecked his Maserati when he heard this audio, but good news as Oprah has a opening for you ASAP. I will look for the story about how you were on medication in a few weeks once the reality of this sets in – I never knew you were an insurance agent!
Matt,
News flash!!! You’re the Disney character….Goofy!! Try going back to school and getting your GED.
Obama is going to come out with a new campaign video:
“I’m F****** Matt Damon”
That’s just a cryin’ shame. Jason Bourne rocks! Of course we know he is a Republican!
Matt please stop you are embarrassing yourself!
Matty boy, does it hurt to be so stupid? Or are you so dumb that you can’t tell?
McCain/Palin ‘08
Palin/Jindal ‘12
Wow- when he talks about inexperience, picking a VP for political reasons, and not knowing anything about the candidate you could just as easily be talking about Obama. I wonder if Matt thought about that… If McCain dies we end up with the less experienced person, if Obama is elected we start out with the less experienced candidate!
Well at least Mutt knows about “bad movies”.
I’d say I was going to add him to my list of actors whose movies I won’t go see because of their political views, but he’s been on that list for a long time already. Now he’s putting his sexist and theological bias on open display… Sean Penn, Babwa Steisand, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins,George Clooney, John Cusack… the list keeps growing…
Im not reading thu all these quotes so this is probably already been said. The only people that value hollywood star opinions on politics is yourself. No one else cares. Well, the leftwing biased media cares for some reason. Probably cause you are all they can find that agrees with them. Nobody cares what you think. Got it?
Matt Damen speaks like what he is…an elitist,spolied, Hollywood actor who looks down on the real America.
News Flash for Matt Damon…the more you insult Palin, the more the rest of America will LOVE her!
Why you ask? Simple. No one in the real America has an ounce of respect for you and your do-nothing Hollywood gang. Keep talkin’ Matt!! LOL!!!!
Is it too late to re-do that roll call in Denver?
Please, Please take you buddies and your money supplied by this capitalist country and leave. We will give you a passport. You can still make your movies…just please, please follow up on your promises and leave. You can share a jet with Mr. Baldwin.
Hey Matt,
apparently all you need to know about Obama is that he’s a leftwing Democrat.
Brian,
“Notoriety?” Get a dictionary, man.
LOL!
OMG… This guy is a freaking idiot.
Knows nothing about her? Dude…. get on the internet and READ ABOUT HER.
Do we have to spoon-feed your worthless *ss?
Why are people excited? Bexcause she’s a real person… not a lawyer in search of power. I know, you can’t understand, in your little Hollywood bubble.
HAHAHAHA….I LOVE Hollywood!!! They are going to help elect McCain/Palin because of these asinine interviews!!! Unfortunately for ole Matt, those “really bad” Disney movies are usually better than the garbage that he delivers! Thanks Matt!!
err…DO you like Apples?
She’s going to be VP?
How do you like them apples!
MORON!
Matt Damon is a serious dumb ass. He is worried if Palin could face down Putin or handle the nuclear codes – News Flash Matt – Palin knows how to handle a rifle and stand up to people she disagrees with; Obama’s answer to difficult questions and situations… “uh-uh-uh That’s above my pay grade”. Seriously.. above my pay grade? And you think he has the judgement, strength and courage to be President. Well maybe president of the of the PTA, but not thwe United States.
If you think Palin is short on experience, how could you possibly support Obama who has no expereince as a leader?
Palin may have been the mayor of a “really small town” and the governor of Alaska, small population, but significant player in supplying energy resources to the rest of the nation. But at least she has real executive expereince.
Obama has expereince as a community organizer in Chicago. I’m sure that had many big challenges and decisions. Chicago must be thriving if the great “organizer who would be president” worked his majic in the windy city. What change has Obama wrought? I bet Chicago is leading the nation… but in what… in gun related homicides. Way to be a change agent Obama in your home town. At leat these trigger happy thugs are better organized in their ability to shoot to kill. More gun deaths in Chicago than soldiers killed in Iraq during the same period.
Obama the change agent… Chicago, once it was little Italy, now it is little Baghdad. Thanks Obama.
Say no to his brand of change and hope.
When a celebrity uses his status to have an affect in politics, he should not be surprised when his politics has an effect on his celebrity.
Matt, Matt, Matt. Dude, you are disappointing me. I had no clue that YOU were so CLUELESS. NObama is the SCARY one in this election. And, actually, Palin is the LEAST SCARY person in this election. GET A CLUE, you MORON.
I love the fact that he, as someone who contributes to society by reading a script that others wrote, has the insight and knowledge to tell us who should be president, as though, by virtue of his “profession” is smarter than a “hockey” mom, dad or whatever. Arrogance. Pure arrogance. Hey Matt, love you in a couple of movies you’ve done. But, as your candidate has said, this is above your paygrade so stop talking.
Wow, it definitely appears no one gives a crap what you think Matty. The people are sick of what you liberal Hollywood actors spout as politics because it doesn’t compare to the reality of hardworking people who do more than cherry-pick movie roles and read lines in front of a camera.
Our VP has more experience than your President.
Just like Barry, Matt sounds like a complete moron when he is not doing rehearsed lines and/or using the teleprompter.
Matt Damon: you pathetic liberal loser! Why don’t you and your left leaning Obama loving buddies Clooney and Affleck have a pity party for when Barack Hussein Obama no that he has been exposed as a viscious self-promoting empty suit! Sarah Palin scary? You don’t know anything about her? Get a clue you tool! What do you know about your favorite son Barack-star? He gave a speech 4 years ago and that qualifies him to be president. The country is sick of the hollywood elite – you, Oprah-ama, Clooney, that drunk Richard Dreyfus, etc – chiming in for face time on tv on subjects you know nothing about! Make movies and perform for me monkey boy or go away! Outside of your menial talents as a semi-competent actor, you have no real value to anyone!
By the way, Bill from Chicago – hysterical conspiracy theory!
Matt Damon is a moron.
Like Hollywood is more in touch with reality than people in “really small” towns.
-J
Hey Matt,
apparently all you need to know about Obama is that he’s a leftwing Democrat.
Two people a country do not make. Being scared of her is one thing, or anyone on the nomination ticket for that matter, but being scared of the administration as a whole is quite another. Electing a president is just a massive puppet show, a person(s) has their hand up their butts. Or in the case of muppets, one hand for the butt, another for the extremities. So at the end of the day there power is as flaccid as an inanimate puppet.
Matt,
While you certainly have the same rights as me and therefore can speak out about just about any subject, I need to ask you if you have even half a brain.
Do you not realize that by making these statements you basically insult more than half of the population of this country? Do you not realize that we are all the whole reason you are who you are? Your acting was good, but your thinking is a tad flawed and your insults are being felt by more than half of us.
So if you just don’t really care about your life in acting and can just simply toss away more than half of the people who have supported you, then just go ahead and keep mouthing off. If you come to your senses and make an apology then perhaps some of us might understand that you got caught up in the moment.
Either way, for our sanity, keep your opinions to yourself, we are NOT interested.
Damon:
Your response is typical left wing; obviously your rant is another bad script written by an idiot.
Go back to making movies where an idiot plays a genius, and remember ask Obama if he launched his political career in the home of a terrorist who tried to blow up the pentagon and was responsible for killing police. Then ask yourself is this the person I want to be in charge of the nuclear codes?
So, Matt Damon finally joins the pitiful ranks of Tim Robbins in a ridiculous, elitist club that reveals the real man (or lack thereof) behind the glitz, made-up images or heroism and the oh-so-contemplative-actor-veneer.
Well…new flash Mr. Damon: The Governor of AK is one of the most powerful governor/ executive positions in the Country – compared to the “figurehead” governors in Vermont and even Texas. Facing off with Putin? She faced off with her own party and has legislation with her name on it all day long. You want Obama, fine. But when you compare Palin’s experience with Obama’s, and conclude that you’re afraid of her having the “nuclear codes” – you sound more than chauvanistic. You sound like an idiot. C’mon Matt! Smarten up!
Matt—Just shut up!
Dear Matt,
Keep spreading liberal rumors that have already been proven to be false. Every time you people attack Gov. Palin, Obama’s poll numbers go down.
Your opinion, based on lies, doesn’t hold much value to the average american.
But keep up the attacks…you’re only doing Palin a favor.
hey matt when you went to your ear, were you adusting your ear piece that was telling you what to say? Who was on the other end of the ear piece so we know who really said this Matt? we know your too stupid to make all this up yourself
Hey Matty we “folksy” people are what makes America great! You hollywood elites are the ones that have eroded our morals and values!
I would like 5 min alone with mr. damon! I’d teach him a few things about how “folksy” people do things.
It should be fairly obvious to anyone who has observed recent events:
Matt Damon has no game.
His candidate has no game.
Game over.
2 weeks of Palin I know more about her than I do from 2 years of Obama. Why won’t he release any school records? If Dems were so interested in “governance” they wouldn’t have nominated a guy who has done absolutely nothing. Obama has spent his career figuring out how to get to the top. Get success as an organizer: go to Rev. Wright’s church. Get political success in ChiTown, go see Ayers. Please, name 5 things Obama has done. Please. Just 5. He’s wrong on nuclear power. He’s wrong on missile defense. The two biggest no-brainers in politics today. He wants to raise the capital gains tax. How is that going to affect the economy? The guy is a joke.
And it takes the AP to give voice to the dummest among us. If a fish said a bicycle was ugly, the AP would think it was news, but only if the bicycle was a Republican.
Jeez. I used to like his movies, too. What a tool. Palin is the best kind of politician — a normal person who got involved because she didn’t like the way things were going down in her town. The PTA, town council, mayor, then governor — the most popular ever. I’ll take that kind of REAL experience over Obama’s any day. It’s amazing that, for some reason, people think Hillary has a lot of experience. She’s a do-nothing second-term senator from a state she moved to only because there was an empty seat. Like Obama, she doesn’t give a rat’s ass about her state and started running for president the second she got elected. And those idiots who think being first lady gives her the necessary experience? Pffft. That’s like me watching a Yankees game from the stands then deciding I’m qualified to be their shortstop.
The Dems are extremely bitter b/c Obama made a terrible VP choice and McCain made a great one. In 60 days, he will be voted president and our country will be so much better off because of it.
I like him best in Team America, World Police. He sounds similar in this interview. What an idiot!
Without a script provided by highly paid professional writers and numerous re-takes, the brilliant Matt Damon can barely stumble his way through this sophomoric anti-Palin drivel. He says he doesn’t know anything about her…so instead of making an attempt to become informed, and under the delusion that his inane opinion is of any value to anyone, he repeats the lies and innuendo of the Obama attack machine.
Maybe you should be asking the same questions about Obama and his ties with various shady people and even less experience in government than Palin! Your ignorance is the only thing that’s “scary”
Why don’t you stick to your awesome movies Matt- i.e: Jersey Girl or how about Dogma which is about a abortion clinic worker. You ever think about having your little baby aborted? I hear you have another one on the way? Shut up and TRY and act you smug, Hollywood, fool. Do your homework before you open your big mouth. Why don’t you go ahead and pass this message along to your pansy buddy Ben while you’re at it.
Jersey Girl……what a loser.
(and yes people- Matt was in Jersey Girl bc he has his head so far up Ben Afflecks ass to actually participate in that piece of garbage film)
Charles Keating was a great ally to have. Family outings for free totaling 14 thousand. And 120,000 in contributions from a friend convicted of swindling the American people of billions of dollars having them buy junk bonds. I’m sure that’s better. Maybe its better to have a lobbyist work for you to help make sure your town gets the most earmarks in the bills past in the Congress. Or is it just better to lie to the American people and hope they buy all the white lies they can tell about themselves through Pep-Rally politics. They can count on us being that stupid, ignorant, and racist. We have a habit as of late to vote for uneducated individuals with no world view other then the what is seen in the National Geographic, as leaders of the free world. To choose between President 895 out of 900 at the Naval Academy and Vice President more then 3 colleges in 3 years, vs. President of Harvard Law Review and Vice President Chairman of Senate Judiciary and Foreign Relations Committees for over 20 years. The choice is clear. If you don’t vote for Obama because you believe he screwed Hillary, well hell, I was a Hillary supporter, but I am not going to vote for someone who is for overturning Roe v. Wade, abolishing the Dept. of Education, giving more tax cuts to people making 600,000 then people making 60 thousand and not for universal health care. Those are all Hillary ideals. I still want those things. If any of these basic ideas are not your cup of tea, then McCain is your guy. May God give us the wisdom to make the right decision this fall.
After reading these posts, I’m so encouraged so many more of your votes will cancel out misguided Matt Damon.
You guys are also pretty rippin’ funny. I needed that after the two-week crap parade that passes for left-wing media.
Thank you for reminding me how much I love America, especially the smallest of towns.
Thank you again.
And just who was Matt Damon before he won an Academy Award? How many studio execs laughed him out of their offices. “You want me to risk $20m on a script written by some no-name Harvard dropout and his knuckle-headed friend?” Talk about a Disney plot.
You know it’s all over when even the Hollywood Movie-Stars can’t hide how scared they are.
Or are we to believe that they’re only ACTING scared?
Hopefully the Dixie Chicks will make their anti-Palin debut and express to the world just how ashamed they are that Alaska is one of the 57 states.
How incredibly funny. I wonder who prep’d his lines…
That’s so sexist, what a phony.
Matt Damon is an IDIOT! He is a freakin actor. Who gives a flying flip what he thinks. He thinks Obama is a good thing having nuclear codes in his hands? Hollywood elitist dumb asses like Matt Damon, George Clooney, et.al., talk stupidity with authority. How could anyone who is so wealthy be so liberal? Unless of course as so many do today, they hide their socialist agendas behind the curtain of liberalism. If these morons are in favor of higher taxes just for fairness and a redistribution of wealth, then let them be the first to pony up some of the millions they’ve earned and have it given to the so called “have nots”. I’ll start holding my breath now.
Matt Damon, living proof that brains are not needed to make it in Hollywood.
Matt: You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but don’t act like it should matter to anybody else. You are an actor who pretends to be someone else for a living and she is running the State of Alaska with an 80% approval rating! And Obama says that he is more qualified because he can run a campaign. He just doesn’t get it and neither do you.
Why are these nitwits even asked what their political views are?
Matt Damon — another example that you don’t have to be particularly bright to be an actor. I respect someone’s opinion if there is some actual critical thinking — Matt is just another liberal parrot. I can’t stand him.
Hey Matt….STFU.
Shouldn’t we be equally afraid of an Obama presidency? Oh, that’s right, your entire industry is in the tank for Obama…no questions asked.
What would Obama do, challenge Putin to a quick game of one-on-one hoops?
If Palin is like a bad Disney movie (that is kinda funny), then Obama would be like a bad Spike Lee movie.
We should all be afraid of Matt Damon, because his opinion about politics gets air time and we “hardly even know him”. Typical Hollywood narcissist.
What in the hell does this second rate actor know about Palin? Also, who in the hell cares what his opinion is. May I remind him that AT LEAST she has experience of governing a state and city, which is way more experience then an “community Organizer” PUHLEASE keep your opinions to yourself!
I’m telling you I never go to movies anymore and would spend one red cent toward anything those low lifes in Hollywood have to say. I hope they all go broke! If it’s up to me they will.
Matt, I hope that was an attempt at sarcasm. If not…you are the joke.
To steal a line….Shut-up and ACT!!
Try getting your nose out of those mediocre movies you get overpaid for ( and gives bad Disney movies a GOOD NAME)and check out newspapers, magazines, online. Any of this ringing a bell Matt? Any chance you might get “Bourne” away so we don’t have to put up with your smug superior attitude? There must be something in the water in Boston that makes males behave like John Kerry! What a snot!
I agree! SHUT UP MATT!!!!!! another hollywood actor thinking everyones should listen to him.
No surprise. Actors spend their entire lives making a living pretending to be everything but themselves.
They’re all part of the same “club”.
I wish these pompous richy rich types would shut up and stick to what they do best. Act.
What would happen if you chopped off California & New York from the US? A Conservative America!
Why do people pay so much attention to a group of people that don’t really produce anything of real importance? I don’t need entertainment to survive.
He got payed big bucks for this little spot. Keep up the great acting Matt!
I don’t think most people are saying he doesn’t have a right to express his opinion, just that maybe before he expresses it he should take the time to make sure he is adequatley informed on what he is talking about. A few minutes using the internet to look at real information and not left wing (or right wing) sites and he could have answered his questions. He proves himself to be ignorant.
People are also pointing out that the job of actor doesn’t give his opinion any more wieght than the job of garbage person and yet his opinion is broadcast as if it’s important. It’s not. Especially since he appears less informed than your average intelligent garbage person.
What’s terrifying is people will actually give clout to his comment coming from a guy who pretends for a living. Sad!
I promise you Matt Damon I will never watch you or your movies. Sarah Palin is bright, articulate, spunky and qualified and conpetent.B Hussein Obama is an empty suited community orgsanizer who is not going to win. Damon nobody cares what you think lightweight!
Obama has a background in the corrupt Chicago machine with Tony Rezko and other smarmy characters. Birds of a feather stick together.
Matt you’re an idiot. Check out CNN’s report on all of these idiotic rumors. You are such an unformed boob. http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2008/09/10/johns.internet.rumors.cnn
My God, Matt, the really scary prospect is Obama as PRESIDENT! As far as dealing with foreign heads of state in time of crisis (in the unlikely event she were to assume the presidency) I can see Palin staring down Putin more so than Obama who would rather stumble/fumble talk him down. Please stick to acting, collect you absurd salary, and let the grown ups make the important decisions.
WOW This is why the republicans keep getting re elected
you and your rethoric drives voters to MCCain & Palin. Regular follks are so tire of listening to the Penns, Damons, Mooores etc that they run to the otherside just to seperate themselves from the elitist know it all celebrity crowd. Don’t you get it Palin is one of us and although I will vote for Obama I have enormous respect for Sarah Palin.
Please Shut up and give Obama a chance.
Matt, we should care about your brilliant political assessment, uh, why? Because you make good movies? Let the smart (that’s smaaat) folks parse out the political rough stuff.
Go back to chasing some trollop around your villa.
When will these liberal a$$holes shut the *&$^ up! I am tired of hearing their nonsense.
Matt Damon “is like a really bad actor”.
Mr. Damon, You are quick to criticize Mrs. Palin, but what has BO done? Nothing of substance. I know that it is the cool thing to push BO because he is part black, but he is less of a leader than Palin is and he has gone on record sayoing he would cut our military and work toward disarming. How would that be in dealing with Vladamir’s Pootin’?
I echo the above when people said, “Shut up and act.”
Matt Damon – You’re a grown man that wears makeup and plays pretend. Who cares what you think? You’re good actor though – stick to that and leave my political decision up to me. I know more than you in this area.
Gee Matt Damon has spoken, what a relief I was really gonna vote for McCain. Do these Hollywood types really believe that they have credibility with regular folk? What an idiot!!
Is damon really this stupid?; does it occur to him, at all, that bareback is even less qualified?! “[T]he fact that” damon’s whiney liberal opinion is even important to anyone worries me more than anything…
Total blank slate. Totally clueless, why give these people microphones??
In the words of Team America World Police, “Maaattt Dammmmmon”
Matt, Palin is not qualified for the position of vice-president or president; this simple fact is obvious to any honest observer. However, she is not terrifying, well, not yet.
The fact that so many Republicans would support her without question, without first or second thought and without really knowing her record is indeed troubling; one wonders on what basis they support her. Is it solely on gender, religion or personality? It certainly isn’t on her record of experience; she doesn’t have one that qualifies her for VP or president. Her qualifications for governor are in question, but Alaska may soon impeach her for having failed to hold herself to the laws of the state.
The Republicans appear to have confused the election of an American president with the personality contest of American Idol.
Well, Bush only had 24 months experience in elected office as Governor of Texas when he began running for president, and he officially only had 4 years in elected office when he was sworn in as President of the USA. Just look how well that turned out for America and the world.
As a dog returns to its vomit,
so a fool repeats his folly.
Proverbs 26:11
It is truly amazing. These comments are all from ignorant, undereducated Republican and conservative idiots. Obama has been through the most grueling 18 month primary campaign and he went up against and defeated the Clinton juggernaut. Are you people kidding me? McSame picks Palin, an obscure Governor from Alaska 8 weeks from election day and you are comparing her with Obama in terms of not knowing anything about the candidate. You people are a joke. And the media isn’t allowed to vet her?? It is called attacks from the so-called liberal media. Maybe if the Republicans and conservative a**holes in the country didn’t lie, twist facts, and continue to rely on outdated rhetoric, and the media didn’t always have to call you out on it, it wouldn’t seem like bias coverage. Palin is a religious nut who needs to be locked in a cell with the rest of you distorters of religion and the Bible.
Matt is scared!
Woowoowooo!
Hollywood is scared!
It’s, like, scary up there in Alaska, man. Women can become, like, governor! What’s next? Like, President?
She’d dance on Putin’s balls, if she were President.
Relax Matt. Go look at your bank account and thank God that the Dems won’t have a chance to steal it from you for K – 12 sex education programs.
What in the world is this actor talking about? The Republican VP choice has more readying experience to be the actual President than the Democrat Presidential nominee…and please, running a campaign is not a qualifying experience for President. Shut up and act! Your guy is no more ready or qualified for day one than Gov Palin, but she at least–not matter how you slice up Obama’s experince–has more days in an executive office than BHO does (which is ZERO! folks! Zero!).
Actors might be great at reading lines written for them, but the public pays for movie tickets that entertain. Matt needs to know that the public can “fire” him along with other actors who falsely believe that stardom makes them astute and knowledgable in matters of historical, moral, and political affairs. Get back to reading a script, Matt, or going on a dinosaur dig.
Matt, Matt, Matt…please just stick to acting. I found your opinion tinged with sexism.
Wow what a lot of feedback about Sarah Palin. I sure hope you all live in Alaska! (Yes, Sarah Palin’s election to the office of Governor tells a lot about Alaska. Let’s see: redneck, illiterate, America-love-it-or-leave-it mentality, fundamentalist Christian fanatics,anti-abortion, anti-environmentalists, the more kids the better, do-as-I-do-don’t-do-as-I-say education for kids. Strange place. Wow with a total population (in 2006) of only 670,000 no wonder Palin was elected. Probably half of the population couldn’t get to a polling place and the ones that did were the above mentioned screw balls. Obama, on the other hand, is a presidential candidate from a state with a population (in 2006) of over 12 million. Chicago alone (in 2006) has a population of over 2 million. So, what does that say about Obama; and Palin? (Oh, yes. Remember the great Ronald Reagan? Former star of Bedtime for Bonzo? He became president, after being Governor of California. We all wished he would keep his mouth shut, especially after Alzheimer’s set in during his last term in office and he kept forgetting his lines. Good thing Nancy was there to run the goverment. Now we have the great governator Arnold. He also has a big mouth. Another “actor” in politics.) So the rest of you airheads can just stay on-line and watch the drama unfold from your computers. Matt Damon is less offensive than Sarah Palin. At least he can act.
Shut up and keep trying to act! And you wonder why all the new movies and Hollywood is going down the crapper!
MATT
WHO HAS THE MOST EXPERIENCE IN GOVERNING, PALIN OR OBAMA? STICK TO ACTING MATT. YOU ARE FAR BETTER AT THAT THAN TRYING TO USE YOUR CELEBRITY STATUS TO INFLUENCE OTHERS POLITICALLY.
Matt, you should be more concerned that your choice for president thinks we have 57 states than what went on 4000 years ago. And I’m sure you are inflating your tires as he suggested to solve our energy crisis.
Palin is light years better prepaered to be President than Obama…and Putin? She’d have him eating out of her hands…Putin will manipulate and destroy Obama.
Stick to what you’re good at…go make a new picture.
Surprise..surprise. Another actor with extraordinary political knowledge that he assumes we want to hear.
Funny thing, too, that the reporter didn’t ask Matt, in all his infinite wisdom, to enlighten us with just ONE thing Barak Obama has accomplished, other than give an inspiring speech about “change” (minus the details of what “change” actually means).
A man is tortured for 5 years, never once caving to his captors — his loyalty to all that America is and stands for never wavering, and he’s not good enough for Hollywood.
The sad thing about all the Hollywood left is that they can only PRETEND to be heroes (and get paid for it). They will never, ever comprehend the enormity of John McCain’s sacrifices for his country (our country), because they simply can’t relate to that depth of loyalty and courage.
Matt.. go act.. and shut thy trap.

Where do these brain dead people come from?
The McCain campaign should use this as a commercial. He says he doesn’t know anything about her and then proceeds to mock her for the rest of the interview. What a tool.
Matt – Great Performance
The deep and abiding concern you project begs one question: Please tell us why Obama is more qualified to govern than someone who has been a governor? One more question: Why will Obama be better in dealing with Putin than McCain? and since you have already determined that McCain will predecease his term, why will Obama be better than Palin?
Shut this DOUCHE TARD up. Who cares what this idiot says?
Matt, Just because you have never heard of her or know her doesn’t mean the rest of America is as oblivious as you. Additionally, what does 4,000 years ago have to do with making policy today? And banning books? Come on, are you so elitist that you really think any American of 21st century would do that? NO, you are not…you’re planting ideas into the minds of those who would watch this drivel. You’re telling them, hey – she’s a witch burner!
The sad thing about America is that most people are not intelligent enough to see through you. Most will not even see this interview unless it makes it to the NBC news – which we all know is in the pocket of the leftists.
Lastly – what qualifications do YOU have to be commenting on a national news medium about presidential politics. Specifically, deciding for everyone who is qualified for President?
Personally I think it’s about time someone that is not “qualified” according to leftist ideals has a shot at being president. I bet you know that she would likely be the most popular president ever – and you’re scared to death of a conservative WOMAN being in charge. That’s what it really boils down to. It would change presidential politics forever – destroying the false notion that you need to be a Harvard Law graduate in order to be president.
This country was founded, fought for, and WON by normal non-leftist individuals that loved the notion of a free nation governed by average everyday people, not professional politicians and/or lawyers.
Come on guys, can’t you see he has more in common with Obama than he does McCain/Palin?
1: Both sound great when reading from scripts, but otherwise watch out!
2: Both have liberal leanings and associations
3: Both make money by making people believe they’re something or somebody they aren’t
This compared to a moose hunting mother of five who actually has had to work for a living! What planet is she from???
Mr. Damon,
You must read Camille Paglia’s latest Salon column:
Fresh blood for the vampire
A beady-eyed McCain gets a boost from the charismatic Sarah Palin, a powerful new feminist — yes, feminist! — force. Plus: Obama must embrace his dull side.
http://www.salon.com/opinion/paglia/2008/09/10/palin/
This column is incredible on so many levels!
Another column making the case for VP Sarah Palin from the UK’s Daily Telegraph:
Sarah Palin is not such a small-town girl after all
By James Bennett
– Matt Wallace, aka The Compleat Heretic
Matt HAS to say this about non-liberals or NO MORE MOVIES for him! A Desperate Hollwood faker!
I am enjoying the liberal march…LOL! They are like women from Beverly Hills who have had 15 too many lifts. All whiney and spoiled.
Thanks GW for making the Muslims (Obama included) fear us. I appreciate it my friend!
Matt is really too young and too naive to have much of a worldview so I’m not sure why we’re even talking to him. What he says could be just as applicable to Obama.
Decent actor, but like most of those people over there, they should stick to acting…
Matt, great job! Bravo, bravo. I have never seen a better acting job. You had me convinced you were an idiot.
By the way Matt, McCain’s mother is a lovely feisty
Lady of 96 years young. McCain for all he’s been through doesn’t look his age and has a big chance of out living many of us.
Better to have people think you are stupid, than open your mouth and remove all doubt. Matt, a little advice. SHHHHHHHH
WENDELL… that is why you an idiot
Matt-its mom, what the hell is wrong with you? You are going to ruin your career. Nobody cares what a booger eating brat like you says. I hope you still don’t shat your pants when you don’t get your way.
Why would Matt Drudge link to this? What a waste of my time. Who cares what Matt Damon thinks?
I think the link from Drudge explains the right wing nutjobs here. Matt, many more of use are interested in the same questions.
Amy (10:30 pm post): A speech in Berlin doesn’t make one a foreign policy expert either. I have been anti-Obama ever since he decided it was more important to pander to Europeans FIRST, before his peers in America. It was proof he has no clue – Europeans will have anti-American sentiment no matter WHAT we do or WHO we have as President. Envy is an ugly thing.. it’s best to ignore it vs. Obama’s attempt to appease it.
If he doesn’t know anything about her and won’t know anything about her in 8 weeks – how does he know she is a disaster and what on earth makes him think he is qualified to decide for the rest of us….
Further more – if he would research a little instead of waiting for the info to come to him, he would learn she did NOT, DID NOT ban any books. Go to the city of Wasilla’s website for crying out loud….
Why these actors think they are so smart is beyond me….
The more Matt speaks, the more votes for McCain.
What arrogance to express such absolute and strong opinions, when he admits that he doesn’t know anything about her. BTW, I thought that Matt was suppossed to be smart. It’s sure hard to tell here with the diffuse and poorly articulated complaint.
MATT, I recommend more acting (both paid and unpaid); IT’S BETTER THAN THE REAL YOU.
Matt, here’s everything you wanted to know about the books. It took 60 seconds out of my life to find this.
http://www.snopes.com/politics/palin/bannedbooks.asp
I’ll work on that dinosaur thing for you when I have another 60 seconds of free time.
In the meantime, why don’t you tell us everything you know about Obama. That shouldn’t long either.
Another Hollywood Moron speaks….blah, blah, blah. Stick to making movies instead of attempting to think.
Matt shut your Fahkin piehole you d bag.
Hey Matt Move to France – all your friends who smoke dope and think like you are there already.
MATT DAMON IS AWESOME, HE’S RIGHT, SHE’S A JOKE….THE ONLY REASON PEOPLE ARE GOING EASY ON HER IS BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN. THERE IS NO WAY MCCAIN WOULD HAVE PICKED A MAN WITH PALIN’S FLIMSY RECORD. THE REPUBLICANS ARE A JOKE AND THIS PICK IS A GIMMICK AND SOME AMERICANS ARE JUST STUPID ENOUGH TO FALL FOR IT. MCCAIN HAS SEVEN EX LOBBYISTS WORKING FOR HIM RIGHT NOW PEOPLE!!!! NOW THATS CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IT LMFAO!!!!
Matt what exactly do you so for a living? Oh now I remember you PRETEND to be someone else. Well guess what Sarah Palin is the real thing not a self absorbed pretend person! Do you think anyone actually cares what you ridiculous actors have to say. We don’t! Go to fact check and she is she really tried to ban books. What an %*@! you are! I hope Palin puts you in the tundra and let’s a moose trample you!
Dear Mr. Damon: Try picking up a copy of a newspaper or news mag every once in awhile instead of fawning over pictures of yourself in US Weekly or the Enquirer! There’s a wealth of information available about the Governor if you’d bother to do a little research before spouting off about “absurdities.” While you’re at it, keep your day job and leave the political commentary to the experts.
Hey Matt,
Weep for the community organizer the emperor has no clothes, the man behind the curtain is revealed and the hype is over.
How do you like dem apples?
Shut up, Matt Damon. Nobody cares what you have to say. Go back to your mansion and your over-the-top red carpet lifestyle. Clearly you think only Harvard elites should run for President. God forbid an ordinary “hockey mom” have the brains and ambition to get involved in government.
Amy, being a “community organizer” is an even MUCH SMALLER issue than balancing the Alaskan economic crisis. I’ll take Palin over Obama any day. The liberal arguments are bottomless; they don’t hold water.
All you morons who are insulting Matt Damon, you are the idiots not him. Remove the cover of your ears, eyes, brain and hearts. Listen to what he said and vote your conscious and not your prejudice or fear. How stupid, dumb and brainwash must you be to defend this fanatic, crazy, gun loving, sarcastic, insulting, classless, animal/environment hating psycho, who uses her children for political gain. Just because she is a woman does not mean she automatically qualifies to lead the country not to mention the world. America, the rest of the world is hoping and praying we vote for Obama so lets get a clue about what is really at stake and who really is the one to bring the desperate positive change we need for this country we all love. Don’t be fooled again and allow the GOP gangsters to steal another election. Open your eyes, mind and heart and vote your interest. Look what voting for the one you wanted to have beer with has done to this country and the world. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, there is not a room for fool me three times.
This is not the time to elect on personality, race, gender, and all the other bs.
Obama 08 & 12!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If he is worried about Sarah’s experience, then how can he overlook the even less experienced Obama. I’m more concerned if Obama believes Marxism works than if Sarah believes in Creationism or not. What another glaring example of the low intelligence of America’s acting community. I’m oh so close to personally banning his movies from my watchlist.
This makes me especially happy that I download bootleg copies of his movies. I hate the thought of putting money into this dumbbell’s pocket.
Let’s see he doesn’t like Palin’s lack of experience…. Mayor of a town with a balanced budget, two years as governer with a balanced budget and a state surplus of 5 billion……. Let me see…. how long has Obama actually been in the senate?
So, Matt Damon knows more about a guy that was in office just over 140 days when he began running for President. What is a community organizer? How ignorant can you be Mr. Damon. Sarah Palin has had more executive experience than Barack Obama. The left just keeps grasping at straws. The party that is “pro-choice” is only pro-choice if you abort a child instead of choosing to have the child and raise it. They are for strong women that take charge only if these women believe everything they believe. What a crock.
The comment on dinosaurs dying off 4000 years ago comes from a liberal spam email crediting Sarah Palin with that quote. You can read about it at the Snopes website (http://www.snopes.com/politics/palin/newsquotes.asp)
What we know is (1) The email is false and (2) Matt Damon reads and believes his spam.
Wow!!! What an arrogant a$$. Hollywood is FULL of people who truely believe they are better than everyone else in the country. Screw you Matt!!!
Matt, SHUT UP!!!! You said it right you know nothing!!! You degrade a first term Govenor who will be back-up but will vote for a first term Senator to run this great country who’s only known bill passed so far is to teach sexual education to kidengarden students. Damn Matt SHUT UP!!!
Can someone please tell Matt Damon that Palin is running for Vice President, not the President?
Matt…stick to acting. What do you “KNOW” about Obama? What has he led (other than a campaign of deception)? Talk about the issues. We should vote for the candidates whose PROVEN actions line up with ours…I am not impressed with the mass media, nor with the entertainment industry.
Hey Matt,
The real news is you and your buddy Ben never wrote Goodwill Hunting. How does someone win an Oscar for best screenplay and never writes another one. Any writer who wins a Best Screenplay Oscar has every studio exec at their door the next day wanting them to write more.
i know matt damon doesn’t have a great track record…..but seriously……those of you that are going to vote for mccain/palin…….did you sleep through the past 8 years?
Hey Matt, what should scare you more is that that your beloved Obama is going to turn this country in to a socialist state. It is also more scary that Obama has not “run” anything, no city, no state, no PTA, nothing, except his mouth. I’ll take Palin’s 1+ years as Governor over Obama’s nothing any day.
Wow- I really was confused and didn’t know who to vote for but now that Matt Damon has spoken out…Yeah right! Who cares what he says or any of the other usual Hollywood fools. Want to impress me…Go make some decent Movies…see the box office results recently.
I’m a woman and a republican and in actuallity I don’t find a single thing that Matt has said to be offensive.
For those of you making fun of him and saying he isn’t educated, he is ASKING to be educated about Palin and that is a very honest and wise position to take in a campaign like this.
Palin may very well be president a year or so after the end of these elections because McCain is 72 years old. Granted he looks to be in good shape but he is an older man. Can Palin stand up to Russian leader Puttin? Can she handle the fight she will have to endure from the other world leaders if, heaven forbid, another war broke out. What about the concerns people had towards Hillary being able to handle the middle east? The same questions apply here.
Personally I think Obama is a dangerous prospect, more dangerous than McCain and will probably vote the McCain-Palin ticket during the elections. Don’t dismiss a man asking questions with an honest and true concern for the direction of the nation. How about instead you help to find those answers and bring them to the light.
The only stupid question in life, after all, is the one not asked.
Thanks for educating me, Matt. I’ve not made up my mind yet though; I’ve got to hear what Pauly Shore thinks first.
Take a look at this from the Wikipedia entry for Matt — he is a buddy of one of America’s most infamous Marxists — Howard Zinn. Very revealing!
“Damon grew up near neighbor Ben Affleck, a close friend since childhood and future collaborator on several films, and historian and author Howard Zinn,[4][5] whose biographical film You Can’t Be Neutral on a Moving Train[6] and audio version of A People’s History of the United States Damon narrated.”
I’m phucking Matt Damon…..in the azz!
Hey Matt, I know what you mean. I’m scared of BigFoot…real scared. I mean, hey, I don’t know anything about him. For all I know, he not only bans books, he eats them!
Jeez-who…it’s scary to be ignorant, isn’t it? I mean, you would know. I don’t even think Bigfoot held an office like Mayor or Govenor (of course, either did Obama, but we’re not scared of him because he makes us feel warm and fuzzy…hee-hee…I’m giggling already).
Oooooo, Sarah and Bigfoot…they are terrifying…if we don’t know about them then we must get our torches and pitchforks and chase them out of town.
Down with Bigfoot and Hockey Moms!
God forbid that a REAL PERSON should ever be in a position to lead other real people…so horrible!! Why can’t we have more fakes and actors like us, Matt…you know, like you, me and Obama? After all, we just want people to like us and tell us how good we are and give us awards and pats on the back.
We wanna make-a da nice wit everybawdeeee, right?
Yup, that Bigfoot sure is a mean one…you know, I think…I don’t really know anything actually…just wanted to hear myself talk.
You know how that goes, right Matt?
Unlike little ‘ole Matt, who I understand is a Hollywood elite, I am looking forward to the day when a woman like Sarah Palin will be in charge of this country. It’s obvious that men haven’t done such a great job.
Too bad. I really did appreciate Matt Damon for his excellent acting and his social activism regarding poverty and Darfur. Unfortunately, his admitted lack of research regarding Sarah Palin before choosing to speak poorly of her with a very sarcastic undertow points to Hollywood’s continued intolerance of differing viewpoints and it’s egotistical nature.
I don’t mind celebrities vocalizing their opinions- we are all afforded that right. However, this brand of “vocalization” is only skeptical fear mongering (yes, I said a liberal is fear mongering) and crosses the line.
Matt, you just lost yourself a faithful fan and Obama a female vote.
I love Mr. Damon as the character Jason Bourne and really like the Bourne Identity movies, but Matt is nothing more than a Bourne Idiot in this video clip. What the heck do dinosuars and nuclear codes have to do with each other. Matt just needs to go gather together with his ‘Crat Pack and have a nice long whine….wwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
Matt you just wait: when your next movie is released your fanbase is going turn on you. Especially the young moms you offended with your statement. U have created your publicits worst nightmare minus Freddy Krueger.
Mr. M……..
We dont have original thoughts?? What about Barry? Name an original thought out of his mouth. Please say change. Please!
Matt-Your movies are fun to watch but you are an idiot.
Matt you ignorant slut (to paraphrase). Stick to a SCRIPT or shut up!
Your desire to be relevant is pitiful, as is your viewpoint,
Sincerely,
Me
Go McCain/Palin!!!!
Tell me again what part of being an actor in hollywood makes you more politically knowledgeable than anyone else in this country? Oh right, the answer is NOTHING.
Brad,
If Matt Damon’s opinion gets you so angry then there’s one thing you might want to try…LEAVE THE COUNTRY. I say that because, NEWSFLASH, in this country, we have the right to voice our opinions and concerns.
You live in a truly terrifying bubble if Matt Damon does this to you
Dear Matt,
You’re an arrogant jerk. News flash: those of us in the real world couldn’t care less about your views about the upcoming election. When you insult Sarah Palin, you are insulting me, and the MAJORITY of Amancan women! You are completely out of touch with the true heart of this nation – hard working, well-educated mothers who love their families, their God, and their country. We love being women, and we love REAL men…(this does not apply to you.)
We respect our military and the brave people who choose to serve and to sacrifice. We respect men who lift us up and help us to reach our full potential as women. You are showing your true colors – which is hatred and bigotry towards women. You live in the land of ‘make believe.’ Your job is to pump out garbage for our consumption – and so much of that hurts women as well… We’ve had enough of the influence of the filth of Hollywood. We don’t need – or want – your commentary either. The good news is that you and your Hollywood pals are galvanizing the true force in this country – women like me. We will no longer be silent.
At this critical time in history, John McCain and Sarah Palin are just the leaders we need.
Please people – these celebrities/actors are NOT the brightest lights on the street when it comes to political or social issues. Do your own research and make up your own mind for who you wish to vote for. Exception of a few, these celebrities like Matt Damon are only followers and wanna bees, they will do whatever it takes to be noticed, like saying stupid things!!!
Brett,
I’m right here, NOT on your side.
You can always join Matt and leave, though.
Absoutely dense, you are.
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
Listening/watching this video more than one time may result in severe IQ damage to the conservative mind. However, libs can watch it ad nauseum since their IQ’s are already so low there is not much downside left.
Do you really think that what you say holds such importance that it would cause reflection and review with the rest of mankind? Matt take hold of yourself, you are just a guy who’s been blessed tremendous luck. Remember that.
If knowing if someone believes dinosaurs existed 4 million years ago is Damon’s top concern, he really does live in make believe land. No wonder no one takes most of Hollyweird seriously.
Matt, got news for ya, Hoss, you and your millions in Hollywood, are so out of touch with reality, nor can you relate with the average, American person, that you are a moron when you open that mouth.
Get a life Pal, or better yet, send me some of that money, Bruh.
Hey Matt,
Could you come off like anymore of a sexist, crybaby panty waste?! Geez I thought you were gonna cry for K-rist sake. And by the way your recent commercial is just creepy and your head is cinderblockish.
Another Idiot I used to think was smart. Matt that was pathetic. This is exactly why I dont go to or rent movies any more.
Wow! Was he reading off of Obama cue cards? He kept looking down like he forgot his lines. And to pull out the internet rumor stuff about her religious views and book burning? Ever hear of Snope.com, Matt? Why don’t you go back to making entertaining movies with George and leave the politics to the big boys and girls. Sheesh.
Hey Matt,
Your from the small town of Andover, MA and have never been governor of anything except George Clooney’s rear end.
You just added yourself to my boycott list ehich includes Striesand, Moore, Clooney, Stone, Deniro, both Sheens, Pitt, Jolie, and a whole host of others.
Why do these self important pompous little snots like Matt Damon think that because HE doesn’t know anything about Sarah Palin then she’s not qualified. If he bothered to find out the truth about Obama’s qualifications then he would have reason to be really scared. But then of course the political leaders of hollywood like Barbara Streisand et. al. have annointed Obama so Matt is confidant he’s the one.
I LIKE MATT DAMON’S MOVIES – I DO NOT LIKE HEARING MATT DAMON BITCH ABOUT SARAH PALIN. EVERYTHING IN LIFE IS NOT THE MOVIES. OBAMA HAS LESS EXPERIENCE THAN PALIN. MCCCAIN IS A TRUE HERO. Obama and team are quick to accuse everyone of racism, going so far as to put words into others’ mouths, but when they make a veiled slight we’re not supposed to think it’s contrived. Please! Obama painted Clinton as a racist. Clinton said it’s a “fairytale” Obama got this far referring to his “tissue-paper thin resume” (NY Post) not anything about race. The lipstick comment was 100% planned – the campaign had it as a new jab in the rally speeches. Biden had a similar lipstick line the same day. These people know exactly how to make a jab and then whistle that it wasn’t them, you can’t prove anything. I don’t trust or like Obama at all and I’m not dumb enough to think someone who was a committee organizer when he was 25-27 should tout that as major experience. The only other experience he has is voting present 135 times in the state senate and running for president as soon as he got into the US Senate. John McCain, in contrast, has a history of speaking up for what he believes in and surviving being a POW for 5 and 1/2 years and coming out to live a healthy and successful life committed to our country is the leadership our country should be proud to call our own.
‘Yo ONDAMON’SSIDE, Matt dropped out of Harvard. He doesn’t possess a degree from any accredited university. Not that that should matter, there are more idiots in Hollywood even less educated like Matt’s buddy Ben Affleck.
What is very relevant here though is where Matt’s mind was molded, a communal home in Boston. Hence the reason for his extreme liberal thinking.
It’s hardly surprising to me that Matt is a Barack supporter, liberal or not. Like Barack, Matt excels at reading scripts but when the script is removed they both stumble, step all over themselves and prove what limited intellect they actually possess.
Matt’s entitled to his opinion, of course, no matter how lame, moronic, and offensive his opinions may be.
Irony, neither one (Obama, or Damon) can complete a simple sentence without a script, or, a teleprompter…so much for the superior democrat intellect.
Wasn’t it Matt’s “we are just friends” Ben Asslick that ranted about getting the vote out for Kerry last election and wasn’t even a registered voter?
What a douche bag !!!!!
And boom – Damon’s agent messes his pants as he sees Matt’s box office take cut in half.
Nice Body language Matt! Do you actually believe half of what you are saying?
Who cares what Matt Damon thinks? As stated in previous posts – go make a movie.
Typical celebrity trash. This was a slap against the fact that she is:
A] Republican
B] Christian
Matt, if you actually did your own research and formed your own opinion, you would know that her “support” of Creationism is something of an exaggeration. She merely said it should be discussed, not taught as fact. Of course, these people cannot tolerate discussions they disagree with. Typical Celebrity, typical Democrat.
Matt, I believe that we were created and not an accident like you believe. I’d take you on anytime, anywhere to a debate. And no, dinosaurs were not around 4,000 years ago. Simple minded nitwit!
What a tool! Matt, you can put oh-blah-ma’s name in for everything you said about Governor Palin, except saying “Hockey mom from Alaska”, you can say “Community organizer from Chicago”. Oh, by the way, your guy is running at the top of the ticket, and Ms. Palin is running-mate. Helloooooooooo, is there anybody in there?
Matt, I still respect you for your acting ability but you are simplistic and only listening to the liberal press – do you really think that Obama has more experience than Sarah Palin? At least we know where she stands on issues!!
“…I’m John McCain and I approved this message.”
Matt I say you don’t know Obama either! He voted PRESENT 130 times in the Senate instead of a yes or no. So where does your man stand on issues…um,um, um, oh let me check polling data!
Hey…..how can we tell if you are acting….aka…reading a prepared text. OR if you are just plain dumb. Keep focusing on your dinosaurs…very important stuff, there Matt.
Matt, I have a suggestion, let’s make a movie and call it Dumb and Dumber. Then you and your Hollywood wacko libs can compete for various roles and us small town folks can decide who deserves a role.
My fisrt voice is for you Matt. Way to go. Nice job.
Hey Matt, ya need to do something about that fading look of yours. Have you taken a good, hard look in the mirror lately dude? Seriously, Botox could be your friend. I would also like to suggest a butt lift, some liposuction and perhaps some ab-implants.
actors need to stay in the area in which they have expertise (and that might be a stretch for some of them) and that is acting.
Spouting rhetoric they know nothing about is just laughable. To believe they think they actually have some clout is funny too.
All you have to know about Matt Damon can be learned by watching Team America.
Wow, so we should listen to you, Matty? You’re a bimbo actor. You don’t think a 2 year governor is qualified, but you think you are qualified to know what’s best for this country? Also, how do you justify thinking Obama is more qualified? He’s never had executive experience! Talk about not wanting someone to have the nuclear codes! The guy’s never had to make a stressful leading decision in his life!
::in caveman voice:: MATT DAY-MON!
Seriously, stick to your bad, cliche acting. Thanks!
Matt, stick to the acting, you’re really good at that, and leave the insightful commentary to those that actually can make cogent points. FIRST, “like a really bad Disney movie”, let’s assume it was a Disney movie, that would mean that the “hockey mom” who wasn’t given any credit WOULD turn out to prove very qualified in the end…at least that’s how a Disney movie would play. SECOND, “who would I rather have facing Putin?” Let me see…a female governor of one of the most rugged states in the union that has faced real foes in her own party AND oil company executives VS. that guy who has volunteered among Chicago city streets, only voted “here” most of the time in the state senate, and served a 143 days in Senate as one of 99 other people who’s biggest accomplishments are voting themsevles pay raises and making sure they are set in their retirement…..I think I’ll take the GIRL. She might even be able to give “Jason Bourne” a run for his money…unlike movie actors, she is a REAL action star.
There are very few actors in Hollywood who think critically or for themselves, or even relate to the regular people. They live in a bubble and think that the rest of the world is so great but never relocate there nor wonder why so many are still trying to get into America (no one is sneaking into the wonderful marxist countries). These actors also keep their millions and live separately – no income distribution for them. They repeat the lies coming out of the media which thinks it is the governing class versus the press – reporters should report not tell us what to think. For every blackhole star or media biased talkinghead – they should be sued every time they repeat a “fact” about someone, such as Palin, which is blatanly false.
If they love socialism so much go set up an island somewhere and practice it. And annoint Obama your chief – dont make the rest of us world slaves.
Matt,
Everyone knows the dinos were not here 4000 years ago, that is absurd. They were here 5000 years ago…..geeeesss, what an idiot.
Matt obviously stayed at a Holiday Inn last night. Must be hard to speak without a script.
I guess it’s NOT scary to have a black Muslim communist, who’s campaign is funded by Islamic countries to president though eh Matt?
Grow a brain!
Jennifer, please tell me you are NOT serious about going to People Magazine for actual truthful facts! Please!
Matt,, gee, I’m sorry that I can’t think for myself. As a 66 yr old white woman, I am soooooo glad that I have you to do my thinking for me. Oh, and don’t look for me to EVER spend any of my money on your movies again. I will bad mouth you for the rest of my life. I HAVE studied Sarah Palin and I love her! I will vote for McCain to show my love for Sarah and her lovely family. Love the First Dude too…
If you really and truly think that Obama is anything but another crooked Chicago pol, you are an idiot. Grow up,,
Let me tell you what is “absurd”, Matt… you thinking anyone gives a crap about your opinion on ANYTHING. Geeze.
Talk about “rope-a-dope”…Ha! Keep it up young Matt, You’re firing up the troops! It’s almost like it was planned…
Then be very afraid Matt, because she will be the next VP and likely the next POTUS after McCain.
You wanna make a difference, Matt? Why don’t you give away your excessive wealth and give up your vacuous, meaningless showbiz lifestyle. Then I might believe you actually give a care. As if. You Hollywood types make great actors because you are phony to the core.
Matt who?? Why do I care?
Matt, For the love of your own Democratic pary. Please, shut up.
Don’t you guys know these attacks are what’s moving the Republican’s up in the pols. It is not working. When Palin speaks she has the same message because and is not saying anything new or stupid and you guys are just saying the dumbest wisecracks to get get yourselves in trouble. What’s next?
I saw Matt Damon in a bathroom in South Beach. Before I saw him I smelled him – he was the guy taking a gigantic smelly poo in the stall. No courtesy flush, thanks Matt. I almost gagged. Then the door swings open and it’s MAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTT DAAAAAAAAAMMMMMOOOOONNNN from Team America!! He walks right past the sink without even thinking about washing his hands. I said “Hey Matt, you’re not going to wash your hands after that rancid poo?” MAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT DAAAAAAAAMMMMMMONNNNNNNN turned to me, looked me up and down, and said “No.” Then he turned and walked out the door. True story, I s@%t you not!! Ask MATT next time you see him, I’ll bet he remembers. Moral of the Story: Hollywood pricks like Matt Damon are so used to having fecal matter on their hands and flowing from their mouths, they don’t even want to wash themselves! Keep the poo flowing Matt……
Can you dance when you speak, that is what court jesters are supposed to do you moron. You forgot to put on your funny little pointed hat!
Matt,
Your comment is truly insulting to Disney. I never watch your movies and don’t intend to start now.
I find it really strange that Sarah Palin can say anything about anyone she pleases but if anyone says anything about her, all the comments come out. This woman wont answer questions period until she has been coached by Karl Rove….does that sound familiar? George Bush didnt answer questions until coached by Karl Rove, especially about Foreign policy. This woman fired all the household help in the Govenor’s mansion, however, she still took the money that the people of Alaska provided for those services……Does she give it to her mother for taking care of the house? Or her husband for taking care of the kids? Neither of them have jobs!!!!!
This really shows how the Hollywood Herd is so out of touch with real American people. I’m tired of people like him and his friends like Gwyneth Paltrow telling us how we should live our lives. That’s very rich of Paltrow who lives oversees telling us Americans how to vote. Well Mr. Matt, I will not drink your poisoned cool-aid.
Disgusting!
Hey Matt, stick to reading someone else’s script.
Matt is za sexist pig. By attacking Sarah Palin he is attacking all women.
Republicans are the true party of women, minorities and homosexuals. The Dems are the true party of lying scum.
Wow,
It’s amazing how out of 499 comments only a handful actually sound like a human being typed them. NOTE to the admin of this board your board has been flooded by someone or a group of folks to obviously are tasked to go out and shoot down Matt Damon’s stance. Poor tactics.
It discredits your site and makes me not want to participate in your forums.
Thank God he doesn’t have the nuclear codes. And he is questioning someone elses’ intelligence. As for Putin I’d rather have Palin facing him then Obama.
Matt, you should stick to movies and keep your mouth shut. You look and sound like an idiot.
Maybe Matt should get his head out of his narcisstic ass. Be surprised what can be learned out there in the world when you are not in Hollywood pretending to be a person of any real significance.
….and CUT! By the way, Matt baby, speaking of scary…President Carter.
What do you know about Obama ? Lets see, he hangs out with terrorists who once bombed the pentagon and are proud of it. He hangs out with a preacher who hates America. All he has ever done is be a community activist. Gosh Matt…he is going to have the codes to Nuclear bombs!!!

To Jennifer Cook poster — People mag should have checked its facts. And they should be sued. Palin never requested creationism be taught in schools, she never banned books, nor requested any books to be banned, she NEVER said the war in Iraq was God’s will – that is a blatant lie and I have watched the video of that speech and she does not say that – I dare you to prove all these lies you are perpetrating. As for traveling while pregnant – read Michele Malkins internet site — she lists a whole host of rich female reports who traveled while 8 or more months pregnant – some working while their spouses were seriously ill. And remember Biden chose to work even though his wife was killed in an auto accident and his son’s were young. Stop judging people and stop spreading lies -back up your stories with actual facts.
clowns like this pretty much assure the gop of a win. unfortunately, idiots like this moron, olberrman, et. al pretty much are ruining my democratic party’s chances. he’s about as credible on politics as he is believeable as an action hero. NOT! he wouldn’t last on the street a single night. oh well, there is always 2012
What a goofball! This clip illustrates why the political opinions of Hollywood mental lightweights do not warrant space in news coverage. Factcheck.org has debunked the book burning rumors plus a lot more. This has been reported on CNN and Newsweek.com. The dinosauer issue was made up by a blogger as a joke. Damon says he wants answers, but obviously makes no effort to find them. He’s apparently content just wallowing in a pool of unsubstantiated rumor and mis-information.
Matt has no right to talk about polotics? He Votes. He has the right, though I realize I am just responding to the insane here. you all scare the *$#$ out of me.
I’m never going to pay for his movies again. I’ll watch them I just won’t pay for them.
Besides its the hollywood elites that are always telling us how the government should take care of our poor sorry asses. The best thing we as poor people can do is download their movies and save some cash so we can buy dog food for a grand mothers.
On leaving the Army, Roosevelt was elected governor of New York in 1898 as a Republican. He made such a concerted effort to root out corruption and “machine politics” that Republican boss Thomas Collier Platt forced him on McKinley as a running mate in the 1900 election, against the wishes of McKinley’s manager, Senator Mark Hanna. Roosevelt was a powerful campaign asset for the Republican ticket, which defeated William Jennings Bryan in a landslide based on restoration of prosperity at home and a successful war and new prestige abroad. Bryan stumped for Free Silver again, but McKinley’s promise of prosperity through the gold standard, high tariffs, and the restoration of business confidence enlarged his margin of victory.
MATT
I got this from Wiki..but I thought you could use a little easy reading….
Hey, Matt Duman you are an ignoranus (both stupid and an ahole). How much do you know about Barack Obama? What we do know about him makes me cringe! I’d trust Sarah Palin over Obama any day of the week. She is infinetly more qualified! You make your living making believe you’re someone else and you’re not even that good at it! Who really cares what you or anyone else in Tinkle Town think! Go back and finish High School!
matt you are soooo smart. Let’s see…how many scripts have you read and chose to act in? If we take your opinion based on your acting career, you have chosen two good scripts. The one you wrote and the Bourne saga. Not to mention I loved your idea for the tv show that was a bust. I know maybe you should do an educational show on evolution, and your liberal buddies can shove it down 1st graders throats. I wish I could be you. Better yet why don’t you give 3/4 of your bank account to the inner cities of america, since you stoled that money anyway with the garbage you’ve put on film.
Bourne Stupidity

Obama & Biden
“A Hollywood Hit”

Even if, and I don’t know the answer for sure, but even IF Mrs Palin does have a belief that the earth is only 6000yrs old (of which I, as a scientist disagree) at least she doesn’t believe in the HOLLYWOOD FANTASY…MAN INDUCED GLOBAL WARMING, or better…catastrophic global warming.
What a moron celebutard.
Not a fan of Matt but agree with him 100%.
McCain is in horrible health. This women isn’t ready to be our president.
Got to hand it to Matt in one regard, he most certainly knows a lot about bad movies.
On a point of clarification, the Social Security actuarial tables state that there is a 15% chance McCain will die before the end of 2012. On the other hand, the same tables state there is a 3% chance Obama will die by the end of 2012. This means that if Obama is elected there is a 97% chance we’ll have incompetent leadership during the next four years as opposed to if McCain is elected there is only a 15% and, that’s if you actually think Palin is incompetent – we know Obama is.
Hey Matt – did we ask for your opinion? How about if I called your house and told you how I feel about YOBama.
The more “Movie Stars” voice their opinions the less credible they become. If you don’t believe it , look at Alec Baldwin!
Brett,
Here are some of your fellow left wing nut jobs…I thought you all secularists…
http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/Democrat_Compares_Obama_to_Jesus?OTC-widget
And what exactly did Bill Clinton do except expose his genitals to the nation and lie about it? Corrupting millions of little kids..(no a blow job isn’t sex). Righhhht.
Hey Matt, I have the same questions about Barry. Is he a Marxist? What are his ties to William Ayers- who is basically a terrorist? Why aren’t people talking about this? This man has done nothing in the senate, and nothing as a state legislator. Before that, he was a community organizer with ties to A.C.O.R.N. This man will have the nuclear codes. And if you look at the “actuary tables”, it’s a good bet that he will live out a four year term (he would be 52 at that point). Terrifying, no?
So what do we do about this? Who do we vote for?
Holy. Freaking. Cow. The chutzpah! I wonder if we should investigate all those moronic internet rumors about THE MESSIAH as well? Idiot! Let’s take a look shall we?
1.) She is the governor of the largest state in the union.
2.) She has foreign policy experiance; has negotiated trade deals with Canada
3.) She actually lives out what she believes
4.) None of her backers are terrorists, communists, or foul mouthed false ministers of hate
Matt, you should be telling people what the specials are TGI Friday’s. Things haven’t been the same since your old buddy Ben jumped on the hetero train eh bud?
Dear, Matt, “I think the pick was made for political purposes” may be the stupidist statement ever made by a living creature. Stick to acting with the rest of your brain dead liberal creatins.
Gee Matt, if you had learned how to read you could have learned a lot about her. How are things at the California Home for the Bewildered?
lmao. Sorry Matt, but you dont have a clue. McCain has >95% chance of surviving the next 4 years.
Mark’s 15% is close enough for the average, however, McCain is above average health, appropriate rate, shows no sign of heart disease, has survived well past the melanoma risk indicators, gets physicals every 3 months, and has a parent thats survived into her 90s.
And if there’s anyone who knows about making bad movies, it’s Matt Damon.
Hmm. Not enough experience? Like a peanut farmer who had only 4 years as governor of Georgia? Or a “community organizer” who’s never held an executive office?
STICK TO YOUR MOVIES, MATT. (I’ve seen ‘em all)
YOU ARE AN ENTERTAINER…YOU ARE NOT IN POLITICS!
MOST PEOPLE COULD NOT CARE WHAT YOU THINK OR HOW YOU VOTE…JUST ENTERMAIN US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Matt,
Go f yourself you liberal piece of sh**.
Hey Matt. What the hell is the difference being a mayor/govenor for a couple of years and a US Senator for 143 days?
B.H. Obama assuming the Oval Office; now that’s a bad Disney Movie. The Obama’s have no respect for the office when Michelle comes out dancing a jig on the “Ellen” show. Would Nancy, Barbara, Hillary or Laura have acted in such a way? I don’t think so. Obama has little to no experience. If he wasn’t so pompous and arrogant, he would have chosen Hillary as his running mate and would have locked in the White House. My vote is for McCain – Palin.
Ah, I get it, Matt. Don’t vote for a woman. Vote for the black guy who organized in a community where more people die killed by their own “race” and ethnicity than die in Iraq in a month. You shouldn’t be scared–BOO!–of a woman–BOOGIE-WOOGIE, Matty–but of the delusional “Hope” or “Change” of a man who has never achieved anything but win an election or two. There’s a reason Socialist or Islamic dictators gravitate toward an Obama presidency. They know Hollywood and Liberalism will make life much easier to accomplish non-American agendas: Obama=Jimmy Carter II
I’ve heard of Sarah Palin, but who is Matt Damon? Hey Matt, you’ve don’t know anything about her, and hopefully she doesn’t know anything about you.
Good god, doesn’t he know how to read or do any research on his own?
He is “scared” and doesn’t “understand” how someone from a “really really small town” could be this close to the presidency.
Go back to your Koolaide stand Matt and perhaps someone will happen by and give you one of THEIR original thoughts.
Gee, ya think Hollywood is getting nervous that The Messiah may not be coronated after all?
I am amazed when these Hollyweird liberals tell us why they don’t like republicans. Someone who lies for a living attempting to be taken seriously.
Please Matt. Keep it to yourself.
“SHUT UP AND ACT, PINHEAD!”
So, Damon’s an expert in “bad” movies? He’s made enough of them, hasn’t he? So, Matt, here’s a tip. Shut up and act. Nobody cares about your politics.
Why can’t we all stick to what we actually know?
Actors know acting (for the most part), if I have a question on screen right/left I’ll ask their opinion. If I have a question on politics I’ll ask someone that has actually studied the subject.
The sound of air is your ego deflating.
People can’t really have an issue with this comment, when the right was blabbering the same nonsense about Obama a few months ago. Shows the double standard. He’s an uninformed actor, but he’s no worse than the uneducated tools like Sean Hannity.
Hey Matt, how have those Film Actor Guild meetings been going? BTW – Your movies suck and you are a 2nd rate hack.
The mayor of a small town? She’s a governor of a one of our 50 states. Your guy thinks she a governor of one of our 57 states. Obama, what a brilliant mind. I’ll take a mayor turned governor over a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER any day.
Palin is a VP candidate your guy is running for President. I know you make a living playing make beleive and having others put words in your mouth. However, I was surprised to hear your arguments and logic. It showed a tremendous lack of intelligence and judgement.
Maybe your not stupid but just scared and feel you must echo the sentiments of the other Hollywood A-holes who give you work.
Matt, scared and stupid is a lousy way to go through life. If you were being intellectually honest with yourself you would agree McCain / Palin is the more credible and experienced ticket. It isn’t debatable.
That a wrap…CUT! PRINT! Put that in your can… Tom/Ohio “battleground state”
Hey Matt,
Shut up and entertain me, you damn fool.
You people should push for “Larry the Cable Guy” to be McCain’s Secretary of State…he’ll fit right in
with the two them, while you’re at it get Jeff Foxsworthy to be Secretary of HUD, you’ll all need FEMA trailers..when a McCain victory pushes the US dollar to third world status and the housing market totally collapses.
You don’t know anything about her therefore it is very scary? Only a native of the “People’s Republic of Cambridge” could be so eloquent.
Wow- you can’t even see the moveon.org strings for this meat puppet!
This just makes me think of the puppet in Team America. MATT DAAAAYMON, MATT DAAAYMON… huh, matt daaaaaymon
STFU Matt, we don’t care about your half ass opinion!
Matt went to HARVARD??? Does this explain the solid conclusions that he so articulately drove home through a logical chain of well-reasoned premises?? Oh, sorry, he did the exact opposite.
So, does HARVARD get credit for this poorly reasoned, rambling, and inarticulate opinion, that he formed while, admittedly, knowing nothing?
The only point that Matt makes here, is that whatever he feels (e.g., “scary”) and the thoughts that follow are per se gospel, per se right–regardless of facts and reason.
Matt, we worship you, oh demi-god of demi-gods. (Before you swell with pride, please know that was in jest). But at least we know the condescending contempt you feel for hockey-moms– and through reasonable extrapolation–most [pick a sport]-moms/dads and probably all other mainstream Americans (of which there are plenty with intelligence and especially judgment superior to yours).
fool should be more worried that NObama is this close, talk about no experience… he can’t even handle the heat of the campaign when it gets tough.
Matt, you have got to be kidding me. She MIGHT be president if McCain does not make it OR Obama that will be president and he is only a senator. Are you kidding me???? If you want to know about the ban book issue, go reseach it. I can not believe he is questioning her governering skills against Obama who has 6 months in the senate. He was voted in and started campaigning 6 months after taking office. You have got to be kidding me!!!! What an idiot.
Shut up and act!
Is there some clause in the screen actors guild that demands conformity to left wing hollywood causes?
Matt: You are out of touch with most Americans. It might be better if you stick to acting and refrain from using your celebrity; a platform the rest of the country does not have at its disposal.
You are not really relevant. What you think is not relevant. And frankly many of us don’t care. Actually the only thing about politics and people using their celebrity. At my home, we stop seeing their films. We vote with our dollar.
If you don’t know anything about her, learn, investigate. I did that and this year, I’m voting for McCain/Palin. Because I think it is best for the country. But also, it feels good to drive you and yours crazy.
You’ve known OHB for 19 months and you don’t know anything about him but that wouldn’t be scary?
The left is in a real panic. LMAO. They wouldn’t be in this predicament if only the had chosen the pantsuit over the empty one!
Who cares what Matt Damon says? The last place anyone should go for political advice is Hollywood.
Matt,
You have always been one of my favorite actors, but I have to disagree with your statements. Remember, if an actor from California could rise to be one of the most respected Presidents, what makes you think a woman from Alaska, who has more executive experience than Obama, can’t do the same? Your gender bias is showing. My advice, think about it.
It isnt Matt Damon’s fault someone asked him what he thought about Gov Palin as VP.
If someone asked me, I would say the same thing and I am born and raised in a small town in rural Texas, went to undergrad at the University of Alabama. I like to hunt, fish and voted for Bush in 2000 and 2004. I am normal just like Palin.
She was picked becuase she offered the bast chance for McCain to get elected. Pure and simple. If you think she was elected for her leadership then your crazy. If you think she was picked becuase of her experience, then your dumb(I wonder if she has even been to Washington D.C.) Your stupid if your going to vote for McCain/Palin.
Damon is not a dumb person. He actually received quality education. look it up.
And the analogy to the Disney movie is spot on.
This country is ridiculous….
Hey Matt, thank you for your idiotic post. What is a bad Disney movie is you and morons like you who get the news from MTV and E. Do yourself a favor and buy a computer and use for more than just porn. The answers to your dumb ass questions are all over the net, that is if you can do research for yourself and not have Keith Olberman translate them for you.
HARKEN AMERICA!!! WHEN MCAIN/PALIN WIN IN NOV. HALF OF THE LIBERAL MORONS ACTORS HAVE PROMISED TO MOVE OUT OF THIS COUNTRY. WONT IT MAKE AMERICA SO MUCH NICER AND CLEAN. ALSO IT WILL GIVE LA A BREAK AND THE PAPARZIFOOLS A CHANCE TO GO ON A WORLD TOUR. GOD CAME TO ME AS A REVELATION AND SAID SPREAD THE TRUTH AND CLEANSE AMERICA. AS KYLE SAID IN DUNE “ONE CANNOT GO AGAINST GODS WORDS” LOL
Matt – you can say whatever you want – that’s your right as a citizen and now I get to vote for you as an entertainer – you just lost my money seeing any of your movies or renting – keep it up…
“Shut up and Sing”
His same “inexperience” argument can be directed at the top of his preferred ticket with Osama Bin Obama… I mean Barack Obama as Ted Kennedy put it.
Wow…this clip proves the adage…better to be silent and thought a fool…than open one’s mouth and remove all doubt.
But a nice job with all the liberal talking points, Matt… Bye Bye Box office when lots of your former fans hear your smarmy, astonishingly arrogant, condescending, liberal hollywood sermon.
Wasn’t your idol Bill Clinton a small state governor? And tell me what experience your boyfriend Barack has, exactly? How do you explain that, hypocrite boy?
What a tool.
Such desperation. The left is so panicky that we’re seeing nastiness like never before. Keep opening your stupid mouths – you are GETTING votes for Palin!LOL.
You know Obama scares the hell out of me for the SAME EXACT reason, Matt. Only with todays pc culture, you can’t question the abilities of a black person or a woman without serious backlash.
I hope his kids grow hooves
Yes, the pick was made for political purposes. The oval office is the the highest office in US politics. When you talk about the “Nuclear Code”, you probably mean the “Launch Code”, and an Oscar whiner like you would probably agree, that even the worst Disney movie still beats the best Leni Riefenstahl movie hands down (talking about Obama’s own little Zeppelin Feld convention) . It makes me sick how it’s always only the rich folks, who are promoting communism. Fact is, in Cuba only about 20 % of the people have bathroom tissue, to meet the challenges of the new day somewhat gracefully! Matt – keep counting your money and polishing your oscar – and take some history lessons.
The reason Matt does not know Palin is because
it’s not anywhere in the script. Actors are
nothing but over paid pretenders. They are a
dime a dozen. Go do more crack Matt. Leave the
politics to us grown ups.
Daddy, mommy, why are there suicide bombers in
the front yard?
Matt: Ask President Obama Biden Laden.
Boo-hoo…another jerk whose movies I’ll never see again. How will I live without watching “The Legend of bagger Vance”????
Since you asked the question, Matt, — no, dinosaurs were not around 4,000 years ago. And guess what? The world isn’t flat either. If you have any other questions, my 7 year old can give you the answers.
Well, People 4get MATT is a HARVARD drop out. I mean he’s no complete dummy. HOWEVER _ will he lead? WHO’s gonna lead? At least soccer-mom (a better concept than “hockey mom”) Palin, has the countenance to LEAD. That’s the real BIG picture. Dinosaurs notwithstanding …
;)
Does Matt Damon ‘really’ think anyone give a hoot about his opinion on politics?
Another stupid Hollywood loser.. who does he think Obama is… a couple of years of Senatorial time and he thinks he is so wonderful.
The guy is so out of touch.. and I won’t be seeing his shitty movies anymore either!! They just don’t get it.. the more they talk the more we VOTE for Palin!!!!!!!
Good movies, stupid kid.
Your fake expression of inquisitiveness as you admit how little you know, slays me. Surely, you can do better than that. How about you and Ben Affleck go hit the stripper bars and stay out of politics. They are clearly over your head.
Matt, studying is done in attempt to educate one’s self. Forget Sarah Palin and get the book “The Road to Serfdom†by Dr. Friedrich Hayek . Any responsibility, task or authority given to a government is measure of personal freedom forfeit…usually permanently… unless won back by armed rebellion. The former Soviet Union is a modern day exception (Thanks Ronald Regan and Margret Thatcher). The people of Venezuela will soon learn how quickly freedom can be voted away.
Anyone else smell vinegar? .. what a douchbag!
Matt Who?
I find it amusing that when these ‘actors’ speak, stupidity vomits out of their mouths.
Matt, go get educated by first researching who Palin is and what she has done. Now, do the same thing for your precious obama. Obviously you want socialism to be the agenda in America so in that regard, FU!
Stupid is as stupid does.
hey idiot,here are the answers to your questions. it’s obvious you’re too stupid to find them yourself.
http://www.newsweek.com/id/157986
Wow!! I know you play make beleive for a living but the lack of intellect and judgement you displayed there was sad.
Palin is not only a former mayor but she is also one of the 50 governors we have elected. Your guy thinks there are 57 governors one for each state. What a brilliant mind. I’m sure he will be a real adversary for Putin and Ahjmidinijad.
Your an actor dude. What’s original about you. You just say what others have written on the script. Your like a parrot of sorts. Leave the thinking to those of us who live in the real world because if you were being intellectually honest with yourself you would not be able to deny McCain/ Palin is a much more balanced and experienced ticket.
I’ll take a governor over a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER any day. I’ll t5ake the good sense of the average American over a Hollywood elite as well.
That’s a wrap. Cut…Print….put that in YOUR can.
Hey Matt,
Did you actually read what happened to Oprah when she made her decision about not having Mrs. Palin on her show? No? maybe you should go read and she what has happened to her. Hope you are reading the comments, hope you are man enough to face them.
This is the type of arrogant closed mindedness that conservatives have to deal with.
Yes, Matt, Governor Palin does have a chance of being president. As it looks right now – even if your “actuary tables” are wrong – she has a better chance than B. Hussein Obama.
Matt, Matt, Matt,
Wow, you really are dumb.
What I’d like you to do for America, and yourself, go to a mirror and look yourself in the eye for a good 10 minutes straight and as you do ask yourself this question, “what did I do to deserve all I have and how do I best go about giving Glory to Jesus Christ with what Ive been given?”
The fact is you are an amazingly dumb man with an amazingly huge ego.
You spoke not one word of principle, not one word of fact that truly shed light on anything. The only two things you said were you dont know anything about Palin, but you chose to attack her by way of expressing your “doubt” and you expressed your ignorance regarding not knowing anything about with a Disney movie simile….
Dont worry Mattie, I wont boycott your movies. But I will laugh at you in public and tell you what you are, a puppet, an actor, an empty shell.
Oh yea, practice blinking your eyes. We are starting to wonder if anything is in there…
And you are Matt who? I should care what you think why? Wait, haven’t I seen you in some movies? That’s right, you get paid to live in a fantasy world, don’tcha? So, you’re really qualified to tell me nothing. In case you can’t translate: STFU!!!
Check out this parody of Obama trying to answer (or not answer) the questions about his faith.
This from a representative of Shirley McLaine’s Hollywood where the idea of a 30,000 year old reincarnated being dispensing investment advice to gullible celebrities is accepted with little skepticism.
Hey Matt, people like you are really really scary. We don’t (thank god) know anything about you and how long have we known you?
it’s too bad – i liked your movies – no more, though… too bad you couldn’t just shut up and act… let’s mark this date and look in five years and see if your career takes an off the cliff path similar to that of alec baldwin… matt damon – broadway and bit part tv star – i can see it now…
THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION TO ASK A CANDIDATE:
Matt:
I nead too now if dinasores where hear for tousand yeers ago.
John Kerry calling Matt: You will wind up in Iraq you idiot.
matt – you are an actor. nobody really cares what you think.
What do you expect from the ignorant Hollywood left! Matt Dumb-man. Sara Palin is a real person, a real woman, a real politician. Matt Dumb-man like most of the left has lost all perspective of “real”,; they live in a different idealist-socialist world. It’s funny when the Holly-weird left try to get involved in politics…the experience is like going a bad Matt Dumb-man movie. By the way, I don’t know of too many bad Disney movies. Nice try Matt! Take a step back from Holly-weird and find out what’s real. Most real people like Sara, because we can relate to her and her life. Keep your day job Matt; your Holly-weird opinion doesn’t matter to the most of us. I must admit though, I loved your Bourne movies.
Who gives a toss what he thinks.
She has a lot more executive experience than the
2 Dems running, every citizen in Alaska gets a
share of the oil profits ~ $1,200 this year.
If all these rich elites feel so guilty, they
can volunteer to pay more taxes.
What’s really scary is that someone stuck a mic in an actors face and asked him a serious question about politics – something he has absolutely no experience in.
Please act. You’re good when you act.
Dinosaurs? All the issues going on in the US and he’s worried about Dinosaurs?
Wow – the libs are REEAAAALLLLYYY out of touch.
With all due respect Matty, a President Obama doesn’t scare the hell out of you? I’d rather have a bad Disney movie than a puppet show any day of the week.
Hey Matt;
Obama thinks there are 57 states, and he’d have the nuclear codes too…what happens when he discovers there are only 50 and thinks the other 7 were attacked or something.
Oh, and while you’re reading on the qualifications of both….you might want to read up on the protocol, no one person can launch a nuke. What scares me is how blind you hollywood libs are and actually think that Obama is more qualified, and why are you comparing one presidential pick vs. a VP pick????? is it because Obama is the better ACTOR?
IF something happened to McCain, she would have at least received some mentoring with someone that has far more experience and class prior to, and leadership is who you surround yourself with. The leader provides the goals, motivation and vision, and you appoint the best people to execute on the goals and vision, so she would have a great support staff, which she has already demonstrated how to work collaboratively with the Alaskan Government.
Another Hollywood idiot to boycott their movies, I’m not going to have anyone to watch soon except for Jon Voight
Hey Matt, Shut up!!! And make your movies, which you make millions doing, you do realize of course that huge salary you command qualifies you for that top 1% that Osama, I mean Obama, wants to take from so called rich folks like you, is that what you really want? I think not!
Is there something in the water in Hollywood that makes these actors behave like complete morons?
It seems like every time I see a movie I actually like – it’s inevitable – the leading role star appoints himself/herself into a political spokesperson for the fanatical left.
Now when I watch the Bourne series, which are awesome, I’m gonna have to block out that fact the Matt Damon is a f’ing puppet.
Here’s a hilarious and literal example of what he did today.
Hey Matt– We don’t care what you or any of your liberal left wing actor friends (yeah that includes Brad and George) have to say or what your views are. You do not speak for any of us. Just shut up and take your shirts off…that’s all that really matters!
Sarah Palin use to beat Matt Damon up in high school, its true! AP hasn’t gotten a hold of this story yet but they will!
the only reason all these men folk in this message board praise Palin, is because they wish they could get in to her pants, and therefore since they can’t it is the next best thing for them to support her.
This guy sounds like a bafoon…uh uh uh…dinosaurs? Really. “Governer of Alaska for less than two years.” REALLY? What does he think about a president who hasn’t even been Senator for two years…about this “Senator” who has been campaigning for president the entire time he’s held office. At least Palin has performed the duties of her job. Get a clue…this is yet another example of celebs going with the “tide” and jumping from what appears to be ‘in’ at the moment. This is surely not the time to be “impulsive” mr. Damon.
Damon, you could have all your life to get to know something about Palin and it wouldn’t be enough because you’re a mindless twit. Will someone please tell Hollywood they’ll never know anything about anything until they all pull their heads outta their arses?
Maaaaaaaaatt Daaaaaaaaaaaamon you’re a moron.
Matt,
No one – outside of Hollywood – cares what you think. Your opinion is no more valid than any other person’s, and you just made yourself look like an idiot while offending many women … she is equally as qualified as Obama — if not more so. Get over yourself. Go back to acting.
The sheer quantity of idiotic, vengeful and mean-spirited comments on this is unbelievable, but not surprising. It is the will of people like you that have put our country in the position it is in today. Let’s see how low we can go and sign on for another another eight years. You are delusional and short-sighted, and will reap what you sow.
Matt, keep your day job. Simple political analysis is definitely “above your paygrade”.
The bourne dumbass
Someone’s gotta put an end to all the lies. I’ve been going to http://www.slander08.com. They do a really good job of fact checking for the truth on both sides of the political spectrum.
Has he even won an Oscar for acting?! maybe he should concentrate on his craft and shut the hell up. These actors are one step above models in intelligence and yet they think we give a crap what they think?! What a joke.
Thanks Matt, that should be good for another 1/4 point gain for the McCain-Palin ticket.
There is nothing dumber than actor. I am sure he knows sooo much about the CIA because he played one. Does he expect me to go to his next film if I am a McCain-Palin backer? How dumb can this guy be? I wonder if Disney will hire him? Hey, dummy: Brad Pitt is better looking than you are. Get back into your shallow, silly world where your ability to pretend is appreciated. Your pretending that we give a crap about your opinion. Much of your last comments were from radical, Left blog musings and had no basis in an legitimate news story. You probably get your news for Daily Kos…which, I am sure, sends a thrill up their legs. Also, the “lipstick on a pig” line was meant to demean Palin. You are an actor. You can even feel him waiting a beat for the laugh. Besides that, Obama is smart and a smart ass. He knew the context of the last few weeks and meant that shot. The problem for him is, he is NOT smarter than we are. On the “dumb to smart” scale, actors like you are at the bottom. Obama is about in the middle and, the voters who see through his empty suit are the smartest. Kiss my ticket money goodbye on your next movie.
We owe Hollywood’s elite our thank’s because at least on my part. I always see who they are supporting and I vote for the other person.
Well, I used to respect your work. Now I will never watch another movie of yours. Waht grade did you finish Matt? You sound like an idiot. What a joke. I would rather have a hokey mom with the nuclear launch codes than your community organizer. Check this out her “less than two years” as gov. of Alaska is way more impressive as a qualification for president than your one term senator who has been on the campain chair for almost 75% of his senete term.
Hi Im Matt Damon I make millions of dollars a year making movies, and your a dumb American and you women need to stay away from the oval office.My wife Lucia knows her place she is Prego again and we have a child already, so please all you women need to stay away from any postion of high authority……
Matt Damon is an entertainer. DUH! Why does he think anyone cares about his opinion? Any hollywood asshole can make negative statements but none of them are smart enough to say anything speficic.They need a writer to tell them what and how to talk. Why is Obama better than McCain? Why is Biden better than Gov. Palin?
If they could discuss legitimate facts on why they believe so rather than just hateful comments I could respect their opinions . Maybe not agree but , understand that they have legitimate concerns.But most Leftcoasters are sheep following Barbara Strisand’s lead. Hey! I got a good jokke! If Matt Damon puts lipstick on his asshole, does Ben Afflick get lipstick on his dick? YEAH!!!
Mr. Damon, as a poodle it is unwise for you to mess with a pit bull.
He would have been telling the truth if he had said instead, “”I think there is a really good chance that Sarah Palin could president. And I think that’s a really scary thing because I don’t know anything. I don’t think in eight weeks I’m going to know anything.” Matt, are you so dumb that after what all the “celebrity” hoopla cost Obama that you want to join in? Are you so naive that yopu want to join in bashing Palin even after the first ten days of bashing her has cost Obama 20 points in the white female vote? If you are, then I beg, please continue.
Matt=Idiot. Honestly that is the only comment needed
Shout up
Uhhhhh Matt?
Do YOU think there were dinosaurs here 4000 years ago? Because, I’m sure Gov. Palin doesn’t think so. Neither do most people for that matter.
You may not know much about her but, you make it very easy for us to clearly understand much about you.
You start by saying you know nothing about someone, then feel entitled to insult her (with a very weak and stupid sounding argument). What is “totally absurd” is that you then say you don’t know why more haven’t looked into this! Obviously, you haven’t!
You’re right Matt, she’s a skirt from a fly-over state. Just not worthy of your consideration. Please tell us you’re working on Oceans Fourteen, Fifteen, and Sixteen. We Obama supporteres can’t wait.
Guys, why wasn’t Matt Damon informed before Palin was picked? You know he’s used to weighing in on issues with Obama. Would someone please get him into the loop?
Also, dumb things coming out of the mouths of Democrats are not being put into their mouths by Carl Rove. Democrats are saying these dumb things on their own and then expect a “pass.” After all, their candidate is the “anointed one” and should not have to defend themselves for their slander. They should just be allowed to say “enough” and have it be over. NO ! If anyone had mentioned that Obama is Black and has no experience, well, can you imagine the Democrat whining and wailing and finger pointing. The party of verbal correctness have to be held responsible if anyone is.
I think there’s a really good chance, Matt Damon is retarded.. Why do these idiots open there mouths, nothing but crap comes out of them. People around this country should start boycotting all these hollywood leftist, you’ll see how quickly the studios will drop them.
Uh…..and I should listen to Matt Damon because….?? Perhaps you libs & left wingers can start to do some research, formulate your own opinions, and stop letting Hollywood actors do it for you….yes, I said ACTORS…”I’m not very smart but I play a guy on the big screen who is..” I’m still waiting for several actors to move to Canada. It’s been 8 years since they threatened to do so; It’s OK you can leave now…
And Matt Damon is who again???? And why would these paople even consider that he has any knowledge of politics or any type of government service. Oh wait, he played a CIA operative.
What is absurb or crazy is the crap coming out of his mouth. Who cares what Matt Damon thinks… Who is he?
Palin is “Like a Really Bad Disney Movie”?
I’m sorry Matt. Have you even seen The Brothers Grimm?
Poor Heath is probably spinning in his grave over that piece of crap.
Go back to acting. At least you can pretend to be smart in a movie.
I scoop things out of my yard after the dog has done his business that are more intelligent than Matt Damon. This cracks me up about this high school drop out actors (yes you George Clooney), they couldn’t pass a college equivalency exam yet think their opinions on political matters is relevant. Hey Matt, you probably think George W. Bush is stupid but guess what, he is smarter than thou!
These comments are hilarious. I’ve stumbled into a den of dumb asses. The same exact dumb asses that saddled us with 8 years of Bush.
Shut up and entertain puppet boy. You know nothing, refuse to educate yourself and have been blessed to have a worthless yet lucrative career. Stick to letting people put words in your mouth because when you try it on your own you fail miserably.
Right, and your a good actor!
From IMDB”
“His parents divorced when he was two and he spent part of his childhood in a commune in Boston with his mother, a specialist in child education.
Dropped out of Harvard 12 credits short of graduating to pursue his acting career.”
I’m sorry that his parents divorced, but the commune and Harvard drop-out explains a lot
He is an actor. He is very good a pretending to be something he is not. The Euro-Hollywood crowd is killing Barak Obama’s chance of winning the election. Americans don’t think much of Euro-celebrities despite what the idiot media says. Damnon did more for McCain and Palin by his statements than for Obama. Hollywood needs to keep its stupid mouth shut if they want Obama to win. I say Euro-celbrities because he, like a lot of others, are considered to be lazy, egotistical, and stupid hear in America. Euro-peons may feel different.
Matt,
You just lost my respect. Also, you just lost a viewer with his entire family of your movies.
Why a communist and socialist like Obama has more experience to be the president of US? Or why is he more qualified?
Anyway,
I recommend you to keep your mouth close about politics and take care of your acting. It is better for your future.
The Alaska’s Express is coming! I would recommend you to get out of the way! :)))))
Mr. Damen, Using your own logic, it is absurd that you would support barrack obama. He is an empty suit, i challenge you to find anything substitive he has ever achieved in government. He is the least Qualified candidate to ever get the nomiination of a major political party, i challenge you to prove me wrong. You have been spending way to much time with the clooneys & the rest of the ANTI-AMERICAN hollywood elitists.
What little we know about Obama is far scarier than Palin. I don’t understand why people go crazy over Obama’s “change”. Heck, I want change too. But I want change in the correct direction. I don’t want change that brings us closer to socialism! Be weary to accept “change” when you don’t know what it means. Cut both of your legs off…that would definately be a change, albeit VERY unpleasant!
Wow. And I thought that amnesia / brain damage stuff was just acting in a movie. The real SCARY things are these: 1. That any idot would listen to what a an uneducated actor has to say and 2. That Barry Obama, who is much less experienced than Governor Palin (with ZERO achievements), might be the one facing down Vladimir.
What a sexist idot.
Matt Damon’s best movie performance of all time was in TEAM AMERICA World Police. Enough said.
“its absurd, its crazy, its absurd”.. back it up Matt! notice he cant tell us why anyone else is better – just throws out generalizations and makes a complete fool of himself.
Shut up! So sick of these actors thinking they know anything about real life…
Never argue with an idiot.
He’ll just bring you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Conclusion: the word “executive” is not some kind of magic force multiplier when placed in front of the word “experience”.
Shut up and act … That’s awesome!!!!!!
This self-righteousness is why Democrats always lose. If he really wants to know that stuff, he should look it up and realize it’s not true. But as a fundamentalist, true-believer, he’s going to be “terrified” of Palin regardless of what he discovers. So he’ll play the “politics of fear” that the Republicans are often criticized for playing.
Matt, Read the comments what people think about you. You will make a great discovery: you are stupid
And I’m supposed to make my voting decision based on the opinion of some dumb-assed ACTOR?
Gee, first the BBC, then Matt Damon…maybe there’s something to this…
Not.
What a condescending creep. Yeah,you sure know how to talk down to us normal truck drivin, beer drinkin, workin class folks! Jerk.
what do you expect? he plays make believe for a living instead of actually making a contribution to the human condition on earth.
Matt – you’re cute but not very intelligent.
What a jackass! How come he’s not “really scared” by Obama’s extremely thin resume? Why, because he’s a Hollywood liberal. Everyone knows that the comments attributed to Palin about dinosaurs and her alleged banning of books were all exposed as internet hoaxes. How come this dimwitted actor still believes that stuff as truth? Because he’s a knee jerk Hollywood liberal. If there’s a bad
Disney movie here, it’s Barack Obama’s meteoric rise from “community organizer” to presidential nominee. What a jerk – stick to acting if you’re even any good at that!
Can someone please tell the script cardholder to stand behind the camera so that Matt doesn’t have to look down and to the right to read his damn script. Could they make it anymore obvious? You would think the elite Hollywood liberals would no better.
Your brilliant character in TEAM AMERICA comes across much more cogently than you in real life.
But your Matt Damon! DARN IT! And we should listen to you————— why???????????????
Tell me Mr Damon, when you earn a living pretending to be someone else, how do you ever get to know yourself? Can you possibly know how smug, arogant, ignorant and pompas you sound?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A626S2sEkdI
Go to 1:26 .. The best response to Matt Damon
Hey Matt–
My guess would be that Sarah Palin does NOT believe dinosaurs were here on this earth 4000 years ago. . . probably because (unlike you) she knows that the last dinosuars that roamed this earth became extinct about 70 MILLION years ago!!
It is up to you whether or not you will educate yourself on Sarah Palin before the election. . .and while you’re at it, maybe you can educate yourself on the dinosaurs as well!!
“Actuary Tables” hahaha that’s Mortality Tables you idiot… Go get a GED and get a real job.
You gotta love these Hollywood Actors who know absolutely nothing about the topic they are speaking out about, and are paraded around as someone in the KNOW. Everything in essence that he is saying here is actually a better description and more damning to Obama who heads up the opposition ticket. Wonder if he can spell idiot, which is what he comes off as.
Actuary tables? More specifically Damon probably meant mortality rate, but if he means actuary tables I would like to see the one specifically for John McCain that he is talking about. I wonder how Disney it is to Damon that a person with no executive experience is the Dems candidate for POTUS? Damon’s real acting job is that of a pseudo-intellectual.
Hey Matt–It is more like a bad “Matt Damon Movie”.
It is really terrfying that she was a mayor of a “really small town”?! Do you know how many “really small town”s make up America?! Many more than the number of New Yorks or LAs or Hollywoods.
I am going to pull the “Elitist card” here and say that is why he is scared of her—she is not a celebrity, like Obama, of whom I am SURE Damon would vote for.
Get real Damon and get real America–Be Right, Vote Right!
By what criteria do these folks who make their living posturing make believe think that they have some special prerogative that other real life folks would find the least bit compelling in ANYTHING let alone being politically omniscient. They are laughable in the extreme.
Holy Smokes !!!.
Why do actors think that they are smart enough to discuss policy and world politics. Those people make their money portraying some one else, they are actors who study lines and scripts not people who have to deal with and understand real world problems and challenges. GEEZ Shut up already. If Matt Damon wasn’t so “cute” to a portion of the movie going audience he would be just a bus boy at some restaurant some place which is about all the intellectual ability he seems to posses. Maybe he could play a magical bus boy in the next Diseny film.
how about all you hate-spewing conservatards boycott the internet, too.
seriously, what a bunch of lemmings.
try THINKING for a change instead of acting like a bunch of scared, stupid sheep in a pen.
how embarrassing for our great country.
Matt ,
Wake up ! Another Hollywood idiot ! What about the HEAD man on your ticket ? A real reformer from Chicago,Il (corruption city ,usa) .
Hey, Damon, you know what’s REALLY absurd? Actors with “expert” political opinions!
Another thing; Palin would do a better job with Putin than you or your precious Obama!
Entertainers … actors, musicians, comedians, etc. You are paid to entertain us, not give us your political commentary. We want the former, not the latter.
I support your right to free speech Matt…in fact I encourage it…the more Leftywood speaks the more the American People will turn away from you. I just wish Bollywood would import more movies….that would be sweet.
And Matt, don’t forget to pick up this weeks angry, incredulous leftist talking points memo as you walk out the door…..
Damom you dumb liberal, stick to making movies.
Youre worried about her facing off with Putin?
She’ll have him for breakfast. He wont mess with her. Women are tougher than you think.
This is why I don’t watch Hollywood movies, after these people come out politically (left or right) I have a really hard time enjoying their movies or music any more. Maybe there’s a reason why the a-political actors are making more money than the political activists; the people are tired of getting political views shoved down their throats by entertainers.
Come on, man. This is pathetic. None of us knew anything about Palin but that does not mean she would not be a great leader. Until four years ago, I knew nothing about Obama. Now I do. His name and that he acts like a damn baby when things don’t go his way. Hollywood thinks we actually care what they think. We don’t watch movies to learn from you. We watch them for FUN. You are nothing more than entertainment. The general public has enough intelligence to make up their own minds about this election and all others. Hollywood’s idiotic and simple minded “liberals” sure makes me feel better about voting republican. That is for damn sure.
For the record, Damon is a heck of a good actor. Why exactly does that make him any more qualified than the average Joe off the street to make qualified comments about politics? Why is this “news?”
this coming from a guy who pretends to be other people for a living. like anyone cares what he thinks?
Jennifer cook…do yourself a huge favor and stuff it. the more you write, the more ignorant you appear. it’s embarrassing to read your posts, because you really “think” you’re saying something relevant.
He says it’s scary because he doesn’t know anything about Palin, but I would bet he doesn’t know anything about Obama either…except Obama has a “D” next to his name, so that’s enough qualification for Hollywood.
When Matt Damon talks, this is what I hear:
“I’m not an expert on anything, but I did play an expert on something in one of my movies…”
OR
“I’m not a real person, but I do make a living pretending to be real people.”
OR
“I don’t know anything about the daily lives of Americans, but I know that playing the role of an everyday American is hard…and it’s hard because of George Bush and the Republicans.”
I will never see another Damon movie.
(Typical Hollywood Communist)
Go Chuck Norris.
Hey Matt-Just shut up and learn how to act. No one cares what you think.
Republican governor for only 2 years before being nominated VP candidate
Avid hunter and outdoor sportsman.
Criticized the Republican party and was against corrupt and illegal business and govt. practices.
Attacked by Democrats as militarist and ineffective.
Who is it?
Teddy Roosevelt
MATT,
You are a fine actor!! And yet you think OBAMA is qualified????? You imbecile, you are making Mc Cain’s case!!!!
Matt,
I will speak slowly so you can understand. You. Are. A. Moron.
SARA PALIN IS A STAR
MATT DAMON IS A FLOP
at least matt damon went to harvard
Did Hollywood have to write, Mr. Damon, a script for this short film? He sure is looking down and to his right frequently…maybe he was held at gun point. No one is really this dumb in Hollywood. Right?
The liberal drive by media is in trouble.
Hollywood is in trouble.
I personally know many people that avoid contributing one red cent in any way shape or form to these egotistical liberal Democrat anti-American POS celebrities.
You just made my list Matt.
Matt, You might try wearing lipstick but that still won’t make your sentient. (or sexy) (or smart) (or cogent) (or any less half-witted) Just an idiot with lipstick on. God Bless and keep you, Matt… Far away from Washington!!
“MMMMMMMMAAAAAAATTTTT DAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMONNNNâ€
Bourne Stupidity.
Matt…who are YOU?
Were you in WWII as a private in the army?
Were you a mathematics whiz kid from Mass.?
Were you the angel of death Loki?
Are you or have you ever been a spy with amnesia trying to locate the people who framed you?
NO!
You are an entertainer! Someone who gets paid to spew dialogue that some other, more talented person writes for you!
You and your entertainment buddies are ensuring that McCain/Palin will win in November when you open your mouth(s) and say the idiotic, yet heartfelt feelings you posses.
Stick to acting and quit being a mouthpiece for NOBAMA!
This man lives in the Disneyland, has not concept of reality, no judgement of what is right or wrong, and finally the audacity to say such stupid comments. If you, Matt, are so worried about Mrs. Palin, I do command you to search on the great achievements of Obama, his business partners, his pastor, and his gracious job as a “Community Organizer”. And then, we can seat in a nice a cozy chair and say what is right to say. You claim to be an actor, maybe, it is better to do what you do best. Do not comment on things you do not know and pretend to have such a concern for your country. In conclusion, you should not talk about Palin without having your facts straight. You suck ,looser.
Most rediculous comments I have ever heard. When does acting make you a political commentator. Of course the earth was here 4,000 years ago and 30,000 years ago and even longer. What does that have to do this election? A mayor of any size town learns to deal with people, make budgets, and learn management sk,ills. Ditto for a governor’s job. That is what government executives do. It is even possible for Obama to drop dead. Then we would have Biden. OMG!!!!! Yesterday in a speech, he told a man to stand up who was in a wheel chair. Now that is scary. And about experience–been in Senate less than 2 years, and a good deal of that time, he was campaigning. What a joke.
you should be more concerned how your going to play your next part and leave politics to the big boys…..and girls. what an idiot …..and your giving the unknown Osama a pass. grow up actor. Matt Damon F.A.G {TEAM AMERICA ….F YEAH }
One word of advice Matt, stick to acting. We as Americans go to watch you movie not because of your wisdom of politics but because of your acting ability. Also, you might want to do more research on the topic before talking about it. I think that also you need to read more about Obama and the people that he has hung out with. How about a very shady businessman and a known terrorist, that is scary.
What makes a Hollywood actor an expert in politic? Sounds like an idiot to me. Do some research before opening your mouth
“I think that Sara Palin could become President.”
Your nuts Matt. The American people are too smart to pick an unqualified person. Didn’t happen with Quayle, dindn’t happen with GWB, won’t happen with Guv. Ms. C-I-C Sarah Palin.
She could deal with Putin or any of those Libtard Commies. The would be shaking in their boots. She could clean them out. She cleaned out the State of Alaska, which is very big and cold, and Russia is big and cold, too, so she has alot of experience in that. Biden is from a little muggy state.
Did you here her speech? Killer speech. She said the difference between a Hokey Mom and a PitBull was lipstick! Get it? She read it very good. Your just jealous becauese you can’t read a speech that good.
Your just a sexist pig because you hate Guv. Palin.
Wow. Did this get linked to some fundamentalist idiot GOP web site? All the GOP posts are almost as scary as the thought of Sarah Palin being one stumble down the stairs away from being President.
Matt Damon is absolutely correct. She was foisted upon us with absolutely no vetting, and now she’s being shielded from the press because she’d get eaten alive from her lack of knowledge of important national and foreign issues.
Why won’t she give unscripted interviews? Why won’t the AP be let on her plane? Why is her every move being carefully choreographed?
You all are so funny. You accuse the Democrats of attacking? McCain has an attack ad about attacks made by democrats (not by Obama), but puts Obama’s face in the background. If McCain or Palin talked about the issues or Palin’s experience maybe things would be different. Matt Damon is right… and likely smarter than all of your dumb asses. He went to Harvard. Assholes.
P.S. – Yea he dropped out, but only because the opportunity cost of being in school was too high. He went on to get rich and famous (Bill Gates did the same).
Geez, another Hollywood big mouth is going to bestow his wisdom on us. Don’t they realize that every time they open their pieholes that more people flock towards McCain just for spite?! Thanks Matt! You just did America a big favor!
Actually, Matt Damon went to Harvard…I dont understand why being an actor somehow means your dumb. You republicans- the party of scared soccer moms, rednecks, religious nutcases and yuppies- are the party that has brought down our country and will continue to do so…republicans=the party of ignorance
There is little in the world more pitiful than an insular, self-absorbed hollywood-type using his or her access to the adoring media to criticize a person with a track record of accomplishment, no matter its current limits. Who gave Matt Damon the intellectual credit to pass judgement on people he happens to disagree with? He ranks up there with Rosie O’Donnell and Cameron Diaz as useful idiots of the left.
Matt Damon => George Clooney with an IQ of 82
Hmmm? She reminds me more of a really good Frank Capra movie.
What an uninformed, elitist asshole! Keep talking down to us common folk you brainless Hollywood jerk!
Matt is a marvel. he’s so smart and talented!! Ok matt, stand there in front of the camera, now…… SAY WHAT WE TOLD YOU TO SAY. Wow what a tough job it must be being an actor. Hope everone gets the sarcasm!!!!!!!
Come on Damon! Look at all you know about Obama – isn’t that enough to scare you. Obama has been in the US Senate very little time and did virtually nothing of note in his state congress. Then there are his associations. Sometimes better someone you don’t know than someone you do know. Then there is Biden – sounds like his health could be more precarious than McCain’s and if something were to happen to Obama, if he were to be elected, that would put San Fran Nan, the cheerleading, speaker of the do nothing House a heart beat away from the oval office. Be very afraid.
So Sarah Palin can’t be a good President because she has only been a Governor for 2 years but Barack Obama CAN be a good President despite the fact he has only been a Senator for two years?
Nice logic.
FACT: The Republican’s #2 is as good or better than the Democrat’s #1.
Sorry guys, you’ve been out maneuvered and Barack has been exposed as utterly out of his league. He is not ready to lead. This proves it.
Well now we can all relax…the brilliant political analyst, Dr. Matt Damon, has weighed in on Ms. Palin.
Tell ya what little Matt…why don’t you go back to playing pretend with the rest of the vapid, emabarassingly clueless, substance abusing Hollywood “In” crowd, and leave politics to the grown ups.
Nobody really wants a trained monkey’s opinion…especially one who claims he knows “nothing” about who he’s talking about (it’s called a newspaper idiot…buy one and read – assuming you can).
Signed – An Informed Independent
Hey “No Lying Pig”,
Enjoy drinking the Kool-aid?
Did you actually know that both Biden and Nobama VOTED FOR the bridge to nowhere? Yeah, thanks for bringing that up. I hope Biden makes the same mistake in the debates.
Yes, that’s right, even when all the pork was added and the price became unreasonable..you know, that was when Governor Palin said “No deal, we aren’t doing it that way” and dumped it…your messiah and sidekick STILL voted for it.
Wow. Ignorance is bliss, isn’t it?
At least there’s a little light at the end of the tunnel, libs,
2012 will likely be Palin vs Hillary, and guaranteed to have America’s first woman president!!!! :-)
You libs gotta love that, though I’m afraid you might have changed your tune about raising the glass ceiling for women. Wait! Maybe just for this election, only! we know how you change your mind blindly based on the Kool-aid the Dems are serving up… keep drinking it, and showing everyone what you’re really all about.
I wonder if Matt can understand this: I have added him to a growing list of Hollywood actors and performers that I will never ever contribute another dollar to anything they perform in. It’s a pretty hard concept, but he may be able to grasp it in eight weeks.
Matt is the scary one that I worry about/thought that he may have alittle more sense than his friend Affleck…..apparently not/I stopped going to Afflecks flicks a long time ago/Damon will be next. Your just an actor/get over yourself
Hey Matt, are you just sorry you didn’t say this also. Sounds like something you would say….
S.C. Dem chair: Palin primary qualification is she hasn’t had an abortion
South Carolina Democratic chairwoman Carol Fowler sharply attacked Sarah Palin today, saying John McCain had chosen a running mate ” whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.â€
Palin is an opponent of abortion rights and gave birth to her fifth child, Trig, earlier this year after finding out during her pregnancy that the baby had Down syndrome.
Fowler told my colleague Alex Burns in an interview that the selection of an opponent of abortion rights would not boost McCain among many women.
“Among Democratic women and even among independent women, I don’t think it helped him,†she said.
Told of McCain’s boost in the new ABC/Washington Post among white women following the Palin pick, Fowler said: “Just anecdotally, I believe that those white women are Republican women anyway.
I went to Harvard too. It was a nice place to visit. It certainly does not mean he has a high level of intelligence.
Pretty amusing how no one knew anything at all about the VP candidate 2 weeks ago, yet now they all know her like the back of their hand and we should just not ask…Yet they will claim BO is unvetted after he has been in the natinal spotlight since 2004? Um, OK
Look guys. You need to cool your conservative pants off. The man has a point and he is entitled to his opinion just like everyone else. The fact that he calls her a hockey mom with nuke codes is funny in my opinion. People that make less than $500,000 a year benefit from a democratic presidency and I think that should be the bottom line for most people because in reality we know so little about the actual humans that we are so easy to scrutinize. I don’t like Palin because of different reasons than Matt Damon but lets just say this, in my spell checker her name has little red lines below it and Damon’s doesn’t…. LOL
Soooooooo Matt, you’re actor, what makes you think we really want to hear your left wing bias on this issue.
I would rather watch a second rate Disney film then one of yours!!! Actor huh??? like a community organizer??? go back to you fantasy life where you belong……It is obvious that the far, far left is frightened beyond belief……why else would they want your opinion.
So, you may not agree with Matt Damon’s opinion, but why should he “shut up and act.” Because he doesn’t agree with you or I? Very American opinion, folks. And you have every right to express them…just like he does.
What is sad is that everyone seems to take the stance that people with opposing opinions are misinformed or deluded. Absolute Truth? Do you seriously think that such a thing exists? Instead of deifying your own stance and demonizing your opponent’s, why not recognize that political opinions are nuanced – that your opponent holds his opinion because he truly thinks it best for the country he loves? I get that seeing the world in black & white makes things easier, but does it really make things better? I think not.
Too much anger in this thread. I have to wonder why.
I was waiting to see what Matt Damon’s opinion was before voting. Matt, please save all of us small town hicks that cling to religion and guns. We need your expert opinion.
In the same sentence he says “I want to know if she believes there were dinasours her 4000 years ago….she will have the nuclear codes so it is important….” How those two have anything to do with each other I have no idea!!!
If Mr. Damon actually lived in the real world with the rest of us and cared that gas cost almost $4/gallon, he might rethink his views…but living in Disney World himself, he hasn’t got a clue!!
Matt
Tell us more..
Matt…Your an Idiot!
Replace the Name Obama for Palin in your comments and it would be a lot more accurate.
And the award goes to, Matt Damon, Actor In A Leading Role (Pinhead Category)
Keep going Matt! Maybe when they win, you, Barbara, Alec and the gang will have to move away! bye bye HOLLYWACKOS.
Yes Mat, A Disney movie that is about to begin a 4 year run.
Yeah, it is SCARY that this Northen Exposure BARBIE DOLL might end up “ruling the world”!!!! You got that right, Matt.
And try as we might, the info we’ve been able to amass on Palin is not very informative or encouraging… neither from the standpoint of readiness to govern, nor from a MORAL standpoint:
Let’s see… We’ve read that she smoked marijuana, and that she “had†to get married, so how do we know that she has NOT had any adulterous affairs, abortions, or that there are not other skeletons that will soon emerge? She apparently has indulged in all kinds of stuff that her present-day “devout (fundamentalist) Christianity†would frown upon.
Ever hear the old adage: “There is no saint like a REFORMED SINNER�! The problem is: Those
reformed sinners invariably try to REFORM everyone else to THEIR world view and would-be “moral
righteousness.â€
THAT is what is bugging people about Palin: her *self-righteous hypocrisy.* Other than THAT, she
seems “likeable enoughâ€! LOL.
Let’s put some “Lipstick” on this bad actor that failed to educate himself before he stuck his foot in his “Dumbo” mouth……. I guess he has “Lipstick” all over his foot now as well…. Don’t slip on the “Lipstick” Matt! Looks like a really “Sleepy” and “Dopey” comment.
Matt Damon….. stick to your own Disney script if Disney will even give you one!
Matt maybe you can play GooFY!
What a commie traitor!!
And we should care what Matt Damon thinks because why? Other than he went to Harvard…of course!
Matt’s a pretty smart kid who did go to Harvard. But he falls into the same condescending tones that are so predictible among the American Left. He and so many have an utterly unfounded superiority complex with a smattering of ill-informed omniscience. He and his kind constantly pooh pooh small town America and have conveniently convinced themselves that “the right” really is a collection of poorly educated, god-thumping yokels. They never dare address the idiocy of the inner-city and the millions of idiot voters there who haven’t had a genuine thought since dropping out of middle school. Matt, you think the yokels are dumb. Hit the YMCA in Southie and see what kind of Good Will Hunting chaps are hanging around there. At least the friggin’ yokels own their own property! The Left have reduced the right, in their own minds, to a caricature, an archetype of evil or stupidity or both. Considering most of the grips and construction guys and truck drivers helping to bring his movies to the screen are “right-wingers” the f-in’ guy should know better.
What a Crock of Crap MAAAAATT DAMMMMONN!
Matt Damon… another resident hollywood political neophyte, numb skull, jerk, without a clue.
Stick to what you do best, act. Keep your idiotic, wimpy, ill advised, ill informed political opinions to yourself.
Matt i think you did a real nice job. Please go on the talk shows and such and get the word out some more. Because i used to like you, i would still give you a hand in pulling your head out of your ass
just call 1-800-2ba-idiot
Maybe Matt should read a real Actuary table.
http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/STATS/table4c6.html
Goes to show exactly how the hollywierd fakes would be out of touch with reality.
I know that everyone thinks Hollywood is in the tank for us Democrats. However, I am convinced they are on Carl Rove’s payroll! Everytime a star opens their mouth I hear this sucking noise of middle America running to the Repub’s. Shut up for God’s sake! No one other than someone living in Hollywood can relate to you people!!! Why in the hell do you feel your opinion is going to matter. It probably is, but not in a goos way!
You are acting, right? Wow, and I thought he was intelligent. Surprised he didn’t threaten to move to Europe if McCain is elected.
Oprah Denies Palin cause she fears by doing so will help Palin be the first female vice president ….Now Matt Damon is running his mouth like another ignorant hollywood know nothing snob (I refuse to see these idiots on screen!!)…My question is who is next? These guys are so quick to degrade Sarah Palin. There personal attacks are absolutely amazing!! The woman is closer to America and the values we represent then Obama ever will be…And Im not talkin race either you liberal nut jobs! You know why the media lashes out at Palin and not Obama? Cause she is one of us and he is one of them!!
And we listen and publish things that Matt Damon says or thinks… because? Is he plugged in to “Main Street”?
LOL.
Matt,
Facing down Vladimir Putin. Is Obama going to do that or let the UN Security Council handle it? I’ll bet Sarah Palin realizes Russia has veto power on the UN Security Council. Obama didn’t know that when he issued a public statement. Matt you’re a stupid and ridiculous person.
I actually enjoy seeing/hearing these comments from the Hollywood Leftists. It demonstrates to average folks:
1) the elitism of the left,
2) the ignorance of people who only get their news from Daily Kos, Huffington Post and Obamamaniacs in the mainstream media,
and most interestingly,
3) how they won’t go out and research something… the key here is how he claims he won’t know anything about SP in two months.
Fact is, he could learn more about her in 2 hours with a few internet searches than the media has told us about Obama in 2 years(yes, he’d see both sides, God forbid! He should also research his idolbama, too), if he wanted to. Then he could consider sources and make an informed opinion.
Hear no other opinions, See no other opinions, Speak no other opinions…
“Ooooooooobammmmmmmaaaaaa, Oooooooobammmmmmmaaaaa” (chanted to the rhythm of a droning zombie)
Maybe when its all over Hollywood will pick up and move to Europe, where they will be loved and admired (except by the French).
Hey Bob,
Do a little research. Alaska may have a small population, but look at the ACTIVE DUTY national guard there.
Look it up. Please. You owe it to yourself.
Because of the location of Alaska in relation to Russia,..that’s a country, you know…The Alaskan National Guard is one of the only ACTIVE DUTY guards in the country, and one of the largest.
They are responsible for a large portion of our missile defence system.
And guess what? Governor Palin is their CIC!!!
Wow, your comment looks really stupid now, doesn’it it.
I’ll bet you are used to that.
Matt,
This is worse than your performance in Stuck on You!
You Dumbass!
Let’s put some “Lipstick” on this bad actor that failed to educate himself before he stuck his foot in his “Dumbo” mouth……. I guess he has “Lipstick” all over his foot now as well…. Don’t slip on the “Lipstick” Matt! Looks like a really “Sleepy” and “Dopey” comment.
Matt Damon….. stick to your own Disney script if Disney will even give you one!
Matt maybe you can play GooFY!
“I don’t know anything about her…but she’s a disaster.†– Matt Damon
Just like David Letterman, Joy Behar, and most of the on-air “talent” at MSNBC, who complain about all the “lies” and “mistruths” at Fox News, but say in the next breath that they have never watched it and would never watch it!
Just shows you what America has become! A dangerously uninformed bunch of fools who shouldn’t be allowed to vote without doing their own homework!
Matt Damon KNOWS SOMETHING ABOUT BAD MOVIES! It’s his forte’!
After reading the comments on this website, my mind is made up. I am taking my kids and leaving – this country can go back to the puritans.
HA! He’s afraid of a hockey mom.
A) Matt Damon never voted in an election until 2004. His whole life, he never voted and admitted he never cared about politics until the 2004 election (his buddy, Ben, tried to vote in 2000 despite not being registered. Anywhere).
B) He’s afraid of a woman staring down Putin? He’s afraid of strong women, or else he would have married someone not a bartender and below his “pay grade.” He’s so typical-he couldn’t handle someone with a real career. He couldn’t handle dating WINONA RYDER and broke up with Minnie Driver on Oprah like a wussy man. And he’s worried about Palin being tough? He only plays tough in movies-I bet Palin could kick his butt.
C) Is it safe to say Palin won’t be f—–g Matt Damon?
D) He didn’t get the memo that Palin never banned any books, disproved already in a little publication called NEWSWEEK.
What a marooooon, to quote Bugs Bunny.
Matt,
I am a Pro-Choice Non-Christian, I was an activist against the Vietnam War, and I am THRILLED to get to vote for Gov. Palin and John McCain.
The examination of VICE presidential nominee Palin in just these few days is much more comprehensive than the timid peeks over 18 months of PRESIDENTIAL nominee Obama’s punky record. Even so, what I know of Sen. Obama tells me “RUN AWAY!” as fast as you can from this calculating hater of America.
Thank G*d we have such a terrific alternative: McCain/Palin 2008
Matt- It’s totally insane to talk about things that you know nothing about, especially when you admit it. Sorry, Mister. Idiots are not very attractive.
Hey Damon,
We know you pretend for a living, but please stop pretending that you are intelligent.
Well, Obama is the Senator for MY state of Illinois and I STILL don’t know anything about what he has done for this state. All I know is he has done nothing but campaign for the Presidency since he was elected.
Yet another unsolicited commentary from a true intellectual giant (not).
Matt,
She has as much experience as Obama, more actually running a State and City. I have several DVS’s of your movies, I’m going to sell them all on Ebay and donate the money to McCain.
In the future, I will not spend money on any DVD or movie with you in it.
Continue to boycott the Hollywood Liberals. Let’s see how far they get with no $$$$$
I doubt if actor-boy damon will ever see this, or care, but I will say, anyway………..just stick to reading your scripts. When these hollywierd hero’s try to speak, without a script, they sound so foolish, like this comment. There is no hope for these fools. I stopped going to movies and putting money in their pockets years ago, that is the only way to deal with them.
Hi Matt,
Let’s get together later with Clooney, we need to go over how we can help Obama recover from all these vicious attacks on our socialist take-over plans. We need you there because we need your input over which age to teach homo-values to 6-7 year olds…we like to call them “age-appropriate”. Anyway, see ya.
Matt….SHUTUP AND ACT…..oh and SHUTUP
Come on Matt…
Obama looks like a total sissy next to Palin. Hollywood has proven they cannot sway elections, noone listens to you Matt. I can almost assure you that in a few years, when you grow up, you’ll wish you never recorded this interview as it is evidence of how foolish you really look.
Oh, for the folks wanting info on Palins record… just go do some research in places without Kos or Post in the title, there’s plenty out there. But again, if these “enlightened, internet savvy” libs doen’t hear it from Tom Cowtow, Shaky Knees Matthews, or Worst Obermoron, they deny it.
VOTE MCCAIN!
WE WANT MORE WAR!
A DIRTIER ENVIRONMENT!
WORSE EDCUATION!
CORPORATIONS GETTING MORE POWERFUL!
WOW! Gotta love his policies!
Obama/Biden 08
Just because you don’t know anything about her is scary too.
Jeesh! Another Hollywierd Dancin’ Monkey hacking the party line for the Demo campaign. C’mon Matt, do what the rest of us have had to do with Obama. It’s called research buddy boy. Let me spell it for you. “R E S E A R C H”.
Stick to acting pardner… we pay the money and you do your stuff…much like an organ grinder’s dancin’ monkey.
Oh, and by the way, google Obama and Saul Alinsky and tell us you like what you read about that Marxist.
Shame he is a good actor, but a big liberal douche bag like the rest of hollywood. he’s not stupid, just a puppet.
Vacuous, asinine and inane comments like “Jason Bourne’s” may not quite rise (or fall) to the level of Cameron Diaz’s knee-slapper, “If Bush gets elected, more women will be raped,”
… but it comes pretty close!
Geez! I’m continually amazed and shocked that God actually makes people like this!
Wow, that video brought ALL the knee-jerk conservative rhetoric out of the woodwork. It’s amazing that most people reply to what they believe is a political attack by upping the ante and aiming even further below the belt. How about you address the criticism he’s making and own up to it–if Palin were a Democratic candidate, Republicans would be frothing at the mouth. Educate yourselves–8 years of Republican mismanagement and disasterous leadership is what we’ve been through. Not everyone is hungry for more…
Hey Matt, you worry about not knowing Sarah after 8 weeks guess what most of your cronies don’t even know who Obama is and what he stands for after 18 mos. Besides why do you think that more Governors than Senators become President, because they actually have more executive and decision making experience. If your worried about a history lesson, ask Speilberg, he’ll send you the latest release of Jurassic Park you twit!!
I love this; it is absolutely classic! I love that Matt Damon can say, without even a hint of irony, that he’s scared because he has no idea what Sarah Palin’s about because of her lack of a political record. Is he kidding?
As far as his multiple protestations that having Sarah Palin on the ticket is “absurd,” here’s what’s REALLY absurd: Matt Damon believes he has something to say beyond the ridiculous bumper sticker slogans of the lunatic fringe of the far left.
That having been said, I actually feel sorry for Obama and all other democrat presidential hopefuls of at least the last 25 years and here’s why: Can you imagine what it’s like to actually have to take these vapid, narcissistic Hollywood idiots seriously? I mean, Barack Obama gets phone calls from Scarlett Johanson wanting to talk policy and he actually has to take the call and pretend she is saying something of worth. Now there’s an absurd Disney movie, Matt Damon: a U.S. president who consults plastic Hollywood morons on the issues. That’s what scares me, dude.
Why would anyone even ask the opinion of a pinhead like Damon. This is even more ridiculous than to imagine him as a paid actor.
Honestly, is this news? Does anyone care what Matt Damon has to say? Further, while I love his acting, he is just another Hollywood lackey when it comes to politics. I am surprised Ben Affleck, the other socialist hasn’t commented yet…he is a publicity hound always looking for attention. I guess I would too with all the movie bombs he has had!…lol
Both you are pure socialists and will have lots of time to lick your wounds come November!!!
Dance monkey dance. Either entertain me or go away!!!!
if she was black he would love her.
why do hollywood celebs care anyway? it’s not like they have to work, pay taxes, go to war or even buy bread at the store? most of them don’t even know the current price of milk. when Jason Bourne has walked a mile in my shoes, he can tell me when to vote. Until then, he really should move to a more socialist country where he’d be happier. May I suggest Ossetta?
Hey, moron! You’re a kid. And a dumb one at that. Go away. Make a movie or something. Try to remember that fame and a bank account does not a wise boy make. What a culture! Pathetic twits like this getting attention outside their silly careers.
There goes another actor who should just shut his mouth. I’ll just add you to list of acors and actress that I won’t watch any more its to bad because I liked those Borne movies.
Great! Another reason to vote Republican this year. Who cares what Hollywood thinks. You gave O’Bomba a pass – what do you know about him.
This guy really comes across like a dope. He should keep his moronic opinions to himself. He knows how to act, but does not seem to know much else.
If anyone reading went to college, think about something. Remember the theater majors? Enough Said!!!!
Well, here’s another Hollywood nut job who can only memorize lines, be “directed” to run here, run there, jump over this, jump over that and backed up by computer graphic special effects who calls himself a serious actor revealing how he hasn’t done any research for himself about Sarah Palin. Matt, you did a good job memorizing those lines someone wrote for you. Academy award winning material.
To SHOES-
Thanks to Al Gores internet, the silent majority is no longer silent.
The fact that you people even watched this clip (and took the time to comment) shows who the idiots are. Absolutly right that he should stick to just acting but it just shows that you people actually even pay attention to what he says….lol…and i just fell into that catagory as well!
It looks as though every one of the more than 1,000 comments here denigrate this guy. Well, it’s about time somebody stuck up for him!! I’m not that person…but, it’s about time someone did, right?
Hey Matt, I would really like to know if Barrack believes there are 58 states in the USA, and if there are are they Red or Blue states!
MATT,
THANKS FOR ENLIGHTENING US WITH YOUR INFINITE WISDOM. WE HAVE BEEN ANXIOUSLY AWAITING YOUR PSEUDO-INTELLECTUAL ANALYSIS OF THE CANDIDATES!
MATT,THE HEAT IS ON, AND YOU AND YOUR HOLLYWOOD PALS ARE SHOWING YOUR TRUE COLORS. YOU ARE A HATEFUL AND ARROGANT MISOGYNIST. WAKE UP FEMALE DEMOCRATS! THE TRUTH OF SEXISM AMONG LIBERALS IS FINALLY BEING FULLY EXPOSED.
MATT, GO PUT ON A COSTUME AND SOME MAKEUP AND GET BACK TO WORK.
Matt – A really bad dream would be Barack Obama facing down Vladimir Putin. My money’s on Palin as being better equipped. Obama wants to retire our Strategic Defence Initiative and as many of our ICBM’s as possible, Putin will love that.
May be you should do some research. I’ve done lots of research to figure out what Obama stands for because he seems to want to keep a secret of it. He’s the one who isn’t qualified, he’s the scary one.
Proof positive that Damon was acting in Good Will Hunting …… idiot savant – NOT; idiot – UBET.
You know acting…Stick to it! You are correct in one thing, I WOULD LOVE MORE EXPERIENCE, but you are not getting it from Obama, and the experience Joe has I don’t want! McCain is a compromiser and Sarah compliments him well. Sarah has sufficient experience, and certainly much more than Obama!
What a stupid statement that is from a man backing someone with NO experience and NO real resume.
Hey, Matt you’re an actor, why do we care what you think about politics? Why? I guess Hollywood is the last to know we don’t give rats azz what they think.
What a surprise? Another Hollywood moron who thinks he knows it all. What a loser!
Not much needs to be said here except that Matt Damon is a fool. Always has been.
Remind me not to go out of my way to watch any of his foolish movies.
John
Matt Dam is one more reason to boycott more movies.
Matt -
Loved your movies. Our Constitution gives you the right to speak. I just wish the guy I think is so great on the screen is so empty off. Sad and pathetic.
What is scary is Putin is rejoicing in your comments. He will destroy BHO. I’ll take Palin in a no-holds barred match:
PALIN vs.(Putin and BHO) in a match any day. Sissy. Bring it on.
In your derogatory comments you have absolutely no regard for those of us in this great nation out, out here in fly-over “values land”, that support your movies in who find your comments so insulting.
You, Clooney, Affleck you’re cool punks, but you’re punks.
All I can say is thank God for the Bradley Effect. It will be one last giant nail in the in the proverbial coffin for B.H. Obama and the stupid Democrat Party. This is in addition to the giant 10 point (nail) lead McCain has in the poll of likely voters. Change is coming! It is entirely possible that Obama could repeat Mondales loss. He lost in 49 states.
Moronic celebutards like Matt, his dumb celebutard friend (partner?) and B-grade actor Ben and his dumb celebutard wife Jennifer, along with many of the other ‘tards of Hollywood, come out of total obscurity and get catapulted to stardom in short order by making faces in front of a camera and reciting lines others wrote for them, and in their moments of delusions of grandeur think their opinions actually actually carry weight and influence public opinion.
Matt, another idiot actor. Try reading the Left Behind Series and you’ll see how people will fall for whoever gives a great speech. Obama has done nothing his entire career and secretly can’t tell you how he really feels about America. He knows he can’t win if he told the truth. By the way, take him off the tele-promter and he sounds like an idiot. The anti-christ will hit this earth just like Obama hit people with no substance. I can see the road we are heading to. In my opinion, Bush has been a great president except for the times he’s tried to help meet the left in the middle. I’m glad he was president during this war. Let me just restate Hollywood, keep your liberal views out of movies and maybe somebody might actually go see one. All of your war movie attempts have been bombs. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
Dear Matt,
Have you noticed that Hollywood movies bomb now-a-days? WE DON’T CARE ANYMORE, AND WE DON’T WANT YOUR VIEWS SHOVED DOWN OUR THROATS. Reality stars now get more press than so called movie stars or are at least treated equal. You guys are getting demoted and don’t even seem to notice. Your very own throw you to the curb once you hit a certain age. It’s all smoke and mirrors and fleeting, then you all get depressed and horrible plastic surgery trying to hold onto what will never again be!
Hollywood and their views mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO ME. The actors, their views, and their movies aren’t even worth the $10 popcorn. Good riddance.
Matt,
Ever wonder why Hollywood’s revenues are so far down the tank. I quit going to the movies that the far left liberals like you are in. If you want to see
the box office revenues go up then shut up and act, we don’t need Hollywood telling us how to vote!
Now the whole world can see why Matt Damon needs well written scripts to create his reputation. Without someone else telling him what to say, he sounds like any other waiter in hollywood who hasn’t had the opportunity that good fortune has given him.
Matt, please _please_ take your message to the public: to Leno and Letterman, but even more importantly to daytime TV — to Oprah, Phil etc. Get the word out to all America. And please don’t forget to invite all Americans to vote.
To all the negative commentators: please _please_ be quiet: this is America, so let’s encourage Matt to spread his message. ;)
MATT DAMON – You need to just shut up! I realize you have to comment, but keep your comments simple, more importantly, to yourself.
for one thing, you’re not savvy or bright enough to formulate a cogent set of words to offer any comments.
If McCain wins, then there is a chance we Palin eventually.
On the other hand, if Obama wins, there is a 100% chance we get Obama, who is dreadful without his speechwriter and an operating teleprompter. Objectively speaking, Obama is an empty suit.
Matt,
You might learn something about her if you open your mind a little. Any way I’m glad you spoke out. I won’t make you any wealthier by watching any more of your movies. Learn the lesson of the Liberal, Hate Filled, Newspapers, Magazines, Network News… We (Americans) are sick of being preached down to by you elitist, hateful, do as I say no as I do, stop driving cars, animals are more important that human babies, liberal snobs. You are out touch and out of business as far as I’m concerned.
Matt Damon’s career is like bad Disney movie. Retard gets a break of a life time and becomes famous. Then the retard gets full of himself and thinks his uneducated opinion matters and people want to hear it.
News flash Matt, you play make believe for a living. Shut up and let the real people out here in the real world make the decisions.
We need Presidents like Palin — we need leaders who are REAL. REAL people who know what it is to be an American, and who know how to govern and lead in the best interests of Americans. Our founding fathers never intended for us to be lead exclusively by “professional politicians” like Biden, McCain or Obama.
I agree with Matt. Good for you, very sound reasons on objecting to the pick! God help this country when the redneck christian soldiers run it into the ground like a collapsing fearful roman empire. If you haven’t seen the movie “Idiocracy” yet, go rent it, it will show you Current day America. The more we cater to the Neanderthal Fundamentalist Christian Terrorists, the more our country crawls closer to a disgraceful fall at the hands of the uneducated. Why has it become such a detriment to be college educated? When did we start to hold up the high school drop outs as model citizens? Why are we catering our country to the WalMart shopping, Rapture preaching fools we thought we left back at the witch trials of Salem. WAKE UP AMERICA, Nascar is taking your country over!
Who is Matt Damon?
I think Matt Damon was just trying to get into character for his next film where he plays The Village Idiot.
Hey Matt
Try ACTING smart
What is absurd is your ignorance
Matt Damon, Pull your head out of the DailyKOS and Huffington Post blog ass you moron. The made-up dinosaur and banning book stories were all proved false by CNN of all people. If you are scared, then think how incredibly scared normal people are about Hollywood’s Socialist candidate, Barack Obama. Barack’s story is like a really bad Ben Affeck movie. He has been over-exposed and the fact that leftist like yourself whine about Sarah Palin makes her even more popular. So you, Ben, George and Russel Brand, keep telling each other how incredibly ignorant everyone else is. Get a clue, your clueless ****.
I’m thinking we are long overdue for another ‘Red Scare’
If Hollywood doesn’t like it, I’m all for it!!!
the real question mr. damon is this…if you know nothing about Mrs. Palin, are you going to make the effort to learn as much about her in the coming weeks or are you going to rely on the liberally biased media to give you your info…based on this video, i think i know the answer….
What is really, really absurd is why anybody in their right mind would want to interview a Hollywood flunkie for anything deeper than a “Dancing with the Stars” critique.
I would like to remind Matt that while all of the rest of the boys in his high school class were birddogging chicks and playing football, he was practicing on stage pretending to be Pinocchio.
Matt, Matt.. what make you think we give a darn what you think. If anyone knows anything about bad movies its you..
This truly shows the ignorance of hollywood. Matt Damon, a person who earns his living petending to be someone else, does he actually think he has an opinion that matters to anyone. I suppose he does as “hollywood” does but let me clue you in, Sarah Palin is as qualified as Obama and the scariest part of all is that if the democrats win the most unqualified person in the history of our presidency will sit in the chair behind the desk in the oval office. Sarah Palin would not. So shut up and educate yourself.
Matt, your a good actor, one of my favorites! But what does what she believes about our origins have anything to do with anything?!?
Do you really think that we are really the result of random processes? I beginning to think that you may be right about intelligent design. Your comments lack so much intelligence maybe we are here by pure chance!
Matt,
*
Thanks for your input. Now shut up and vote for your candidate of choice on November 4th like the rest of us.

I find it interesting the only way liberals can defend Obama is to ridicule the opposition. And they don’t limit it to facts, they rely on anything they’ve heard. If it sounds good to them, it must be true.
But they almost never defend Obama for his accomplishments (as he has none), for the friends he keeps (which would immediately end a Republicans career before it got started if they had similar acquaintances), or even for his empty platitudes of hope and change (whichs means ABSOLUTELY nothing but is accepted as brilliance by liberals regardless of no details).
When you finally pry some actual details out of him, he clearly wants a bigger government, more power, higher taxes (he now denies but it is the only way he can pay for all the entitlements he has planned regardless what he says) and wants to play a much bigger role in how you run your life. It doesn’t matter that the math doesn’t work out and most of his promises have little chance in passing. Liberals believe he can make it all happen and we will be much better off….all broke but all equally miserable. Away from a teleprompter he has said some of the most irresponsible solutions to problems only to change them a couple more times until the polls come in more favorable. Then he knows hes getting closer to the right answer.
It is down right scary his incompetence when he is not reading some one elses script and how many times he has changed his opinions. Its definitely a work in progress that doesn’t scare liberals at all. Sure sounds like socialism or worse to me. But he does it all with a charming smile on his face and is confident that same charm is all thats required with our enemies. But he may have a point there. They think in similar ways. America is the bad guys!
A MESSAGE TO DAMON ROCKS,
THE MEDIA NOMINATED OBAMA WITH THE HELP OF THE DNC AND THEY WILL REALIZE THEIR MISTAKE ON NOVEMBER FOURTH. THE DEMOCRATS HAVE NOMINATED THE LEAST EXPERIENCED PERSON EVER TO RUN FOR OFFICE.
damon’s comments are surprisingly level-headed and not nearly as reactionary as what usually comes out of hollywood. i mean, imagine what tim robbins would do – probably handcuff himself to something. and it actually does sound like a terrible disney movie, or like Dave: the “folksy” wisdom diffusing a potential war, or making a foreign leader so ashamed of himself that he thanks America and vows to change his totalitarian ways.
Way to go Matt. I love it!
How can’t you Conservatives see through Sarah Palin? Are you that dumb? It’s unbelievable. Can’t you see that she was chosen just to get votes and not because she would make a good president? She has never even left the country for God sakes – how could she be a good president??!? It always surprises me how dumb, uneducated and close-minded a lot of people in this country are…
To all you Conservatives out there. KEEP IT UP! Forgot to thank you for voting for Bush the last two time… This country is going in a GREAT direction because of people just like you!!! Keep it up guys!!!!!!! See what happens to this country if you elect McCain & Palin… You think we’re in bad shape now – where will we be in 4 years if we continue down this path of over-spending and shunning our allies and neighbors??? KEEP IT UP GUYS!!!! BRAVO!!!!!!!!
Damon whines about James Bond being a misogynist, pot meet kettle!
No, its like a really bad Matt Damon movie, where he spouts off about things that he has no understanding of, and a sycophantic interviewer hangs on every word like he has credibility.
Lets compare Palin’s experience to Obama’s…because he has none. Palin is more qualified to be President than Obama is.
Tell the truth matt. You just are too sexist to support a woman for any position of power. the comments about the “hockey mom” and belittling her for that prove it.
Personally, I’d be way more comfortable with Palin facing up to Putin than Obama. I think she is tougher.
For those of you who refer to Mr. Damon as an idiot, you should know that he like another pretty smart guy named Bill Gates, is a Harvard drop-out. He attended Harvard for three years and left to pursue a pretty successful acting career. I will take the opinion of a Harvard drop-out over that of Governor Palin who attended five mediocre colleges over a span of six years and finally earned a bachelor’s degree. You know what they usually call a person who attended college that long? A DOCTOR! It’s clear she has never earned any sort of doctorate degree – MD, PhD, EdD, JD — nadah!
What a moron lol
Matt who? Seriously, weren’t his fifteen minutes up a couple of years ago? There was a time in history when actors were on par with prostitutes and the theaters were built in the vice ridden parts of town… oops… bad comparison.
Matt. Do me a fave. Stick to acting. I agree with one thing, we don’t know her fully just yet. But, the same can be said about Barrack Obama. We might’ve had a year, but we are still in the same darkness about who he is then we were a year ago. Oh, wait. We did find out about his terrorist-linked friends (William Ayers, Rezko, etc). Oh, and his wife has only recently been proud of her country. Oh, and he is alone in supporting infanticide (baby killed outside of womb). Also, he failed to vote Yes or No 130 times on issues put in front of him. He just voted “present” …. shows true decision making skills. I wonder what it’d be like if he had the ”nuclear codes”. Yes or No President Obama?? Yes or NO??? Yes or NO??? “Present!” I don’t want him anywhere near the button! Could you imagine the same turmoil at 3am in the morning? There goes our national security!
Just another hollywood leftest I will be boycotting. Use your influence, loose your viewers. Smart Move Will Hunting, How do you like tem apples.
What an idiot! Perhaps Matt needs to remember running for office is a “political” move. So duh, yeah there is a political reason. Sarah Palin is a Conservative and a real staunch one and that means she has principles, which will guide her in her decisions. Whereas the superboy Obama is as flagmatic and empty as a candidate can be. I think we need to investigate his beliefs first since the actuary tables show that if elected he has a 2 in 3 chance of staying alive during his first term and he will need to stand up to a guy like Putin and I need to know if this guy really believes that we don’t know when life begins. I mean I really need to know if he believes in medieval concepts like quickening or if he embraces modern scientific data that life begins at conception.
I think the characterization of Matt Damon in the movie “Team America: World Police” is accurate here. Remember in the movie he was an important member of the [F]ilm [A]ctors [G]uild and apparently he still is.
Matt Ol’ Buddy,
You are entitled to your opinion as we all are. However, why not keep your pie hole shut long enough to do some research on the issues before making such inflamatory statements and insult someone, you admit, you know nothing about? By the way, how much do you REALLY know about Obama?
I’m sure there are many around you that hang upon your every word. You, like Tim Robbins et. al., should stay steer of political commentary because it weakens your brand. I’ll bet you take a bunch of crap for your comments. Hope so, you brought it on yourself.
You don’t know the first thing about Ms. Palin so why comment? Keep your mouth shut and do some homework.
Personally, you just come off looking like another Hollywood blow hard. You’re going to take plenty of heat for your words Matt Ol’ boy. Certainly, you have the right to your own opinion and likewise, I have the right to respond in kind.
Do us all a favor and not cry like a little baby like Tim Robbins did when people called him out for his foolish comments. Learn from your ignorance and try not to repeat your mistakes.
Way to go Matt. I love it!
How can’t you Conservatives see through Sarah Palin? Are you that dumb? It’s unbelievable. Can’t you see that she was chosen just to get votes and not because she would make a good president? She has never even left the country for God sakes – how could she be a good president??!? It always surprises me how dumb, uneducated and close-minded a lot of people in this country are…

KEEP IT UP GUYS!!!! BRAVO!!!!!!!!
thousands of comments, the majority of which are hate-filled…and for what? for two minutes of a Matt Damon answer to a question HE was asked by a journalist. You are tools. Every single one of you. You are pathetic! And you will be voting in November. And you’re all being fooled again. Third times a charm, eh? Don’t start crying about the economy in a few months from now.
I’ve had enough of these rich Hollywood types looking down there noses at their audiences. In thi case former audience, I won’t give them a dime or my time.
My biggest complaint in all this is what elected president, with few exceptions, is truly “qualified” for the office? Does anyone believe that, recently, Clinton or GW were/are? They are both woefully incapable of making “good” decisions on their own. Very generally, Clinton knew nothing of the Military and Bush falls short domestically. The true measure of success for any administration is based on the people appointed to cabinet positions that inform the president/VP. I don’t know much about Palin either but what little I do know is that she is more like the “other 90%” of Americans than any person that ever held the office. Who better to represent the “American People” than someone who DIDN’t go to Harvard or Yale, likely had to live payday to payday, has had to juggle work and family because there wasn’t hired help to do it? As far as Matt Damon goes…looks like one more Hollywood elitist that will be off my list. Sucks because I really enjoy his work and I think he has a new movie out soon (Max Payne). Everyone has an opinion, and certainly the right to it (spent 22 years in the USMC partly because of that), but most don’t have access like H’wooders do to voice it. That’s why I’d never listen to anything they have to say unless it’s about their current movie or tour dates…
Semper Fi Mac!
Hey GAT!!
Have you ever heard Obama speak without a prepared speech and a prompter?
Uhhh, I, I, uhhhh, uhhh global warming i-is real bad. Uhhh….
This is almost as good as the news that BS is giving a (28,500/ticket) concert for Barry O for the hollywood elites! They don’t know they are building up the lead for McCain…everytime they open their mouths….Perfect!
What a joke!
Barack Hussein Obama in the White House is like a bad Wes Craven movie, “Nightmare on Pennsylvania Avenue”.
You know they are worried when they have to pull out actors to try and pitch their nonsense. Palin is now hotter than Uhbama and its only getting better. Uhbama is becoming loose lipped like Biden and its just getting worse. I can’t imagine what they will do by November.
And yet we should value your judgement even though all you do is imitate fictional characters in movies. I guess that makes you an expert just like the rest of your out-of-touch tree-hugging, global-warming-alarmist, robin-hood-wanna-be fanatics in Hollywood. As for me – someone who has taken 30 minutes of my day (well short of the 8 months it will take him) to research her on the Internet – she seems to me like she actually stands for something she believes in and has actual accomplishments. NOTE TO MATTHEW’S AGENT: Tell your client to focus on what he knows best… acting like someone else. His political arguments are sophomorish and alient at least 51% of the US. Thank God.
Wow. So many blasting Damon, and NONE of them actually addressing his *POINTS*.
1. Someone selected to take over it McCain’s cancer returns should have more than 8 weeks of national scrutiny. Say what you will about Obama’s experience … at least we’ve known who he *IS* for the last 4 years!
2. Palin’s “experience” amounts to 8 years mayor of a town smaller than some *High Schools* (and she needed to hire a City Administrator to do it) and not even half-a-term as governor of a state whose population is smaller than the city of Columbus, OH.
Would you pick the equivalent of a High School principle, or half-term mayor of a small city to be next in line for the Presidency?
Really?
3. Yes it is worth noting if she believes the earth is 6,000 years old or she tried to ban books. If the answer is “no”, fine. But it’s worth asking the *QUESTION*.
You guys bought into her based on nothing but a Convention speech!
Damon is right.
But he missed the bigger point.
It’s not what it says about Palin, but what it says about *McCain*.
Is he really putting “country first” … or “election first” with this choice?
I don’t understand the obsession with Hollywood and what they think about politics. These are people who know virtually nothing about politics or current events, so who cares what they think. So Matt doesn’t know who Palin is and she scares him, big woop. He doesn’t have to vote for her, like anyone in Hollywood votes Republican, lol. But just because Matt is a “star” shouldn’t be a platform on which he gets airtime for his “out of touch” political views.
I know it infuriates you Republicans to no end that celebrities tend to be liberal, and vote Democrat. Of course, considering how hypocritical you’ve all become since Palin was picked something tells me if Damon was praising her you’d call him a genius, which is actually more accurate of a description for a person who “Dropped out of Harvard 12 credits short of graduating to pursue his acting career.(IMDB.com)” Last time I checked acting was a profession, and America had free speech. He may be a celebrity, but I think it’s safe to assume he’s an educated one. One that may read a newspaper every once and awhile which is more than I can say for most of the population including our current President. One more thing to think about…. why was it okay to take the gloves off when it came to questioning Hillary, but now you are all protecting Palin like she’s a fragile, helpless, WOMAN, and somehow we’re the sexist ones.
…President Palin would be “facing down Vladimir Putin”….what’s wrong with that? President OBama would likely be “backing down from President Putin”! Matt, Matt, Matt! Please keep to acting. And tell Babs hi!
One thing more terrifying than Sarah Palin being Vice President/President…
Matt Damon being Vice President/President
Cocky, cynical Hollywood is alive and well, sadly.
Yawn…but keep it up, this is part of why the Dems blew it in 2000 and 2004, they just can’t help themselves!
Come on Matt, did you just read that from a teleprompter or rehearse those lines all night? Not original, dude, same old worn out talking points.
Stick to acting. The logic behind this argument is precisely the reason not to vote for Obama. My biggest fear is that we will have Obama and his eloquence without substance facing Putin.
Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor
Bill Chicago: That was funny!
Who the F— cares what Matt Damon thinks. He’s an idiot actor who makes living in a fantasy world! Here’s some really sound advise – stick to making movies – its what you know. Don’t venture into the political spectrum and demonstrate how STUPID YOU REALLY ARE!!
The Europeans love Obama. Hollywood lefties are always threatening to move to Europe. I think it’s a great plan…let Europe have them all.
Yet another empty-headed actor who has ruined my ability to suspend disbelief when he is on the screen.
May Hollywood die, and may we once again take the 19th century view that actors are only a notch above prostitutes.
Well Matt Damon certainly knows a lot about bad movies…..God knows he has been in enough of them. What a jackal.
Matt,
And Obama would call on all his community organizer experience to face down Putin. You and your Hollywood elitist pals are the Disney Cartoon. Obama is the least qualified Presidential Candidate this country has ever seen in modern times not to mention the most LIBERAL. You Socialists hang real tough together. America is not going to Elect a Socialist to be President. Get used to it Corncob. President McCain and Vice President Palin you toon.
Matt,
Did you join the Church of Scientology like Thomas Cruise Mapother IV (aka Tom Cruise)? I guess once you guys pretend to be covert agents you think you have inside information.
Well, news flash Matt! Obama’s experience is a lot lower than Palin’s! She can answer questions without using a teleprompter and the ghost of Tip O’Neill (Mr. Tax and Spend) isn’t whispering in her ear the way he is directing the Deaniac campaign with Curious George as their sock puppet!
Get a life, dewd…
One more thing; what does dinasors have to do with nuclear codes? You’re really pulling for straws on that one! It shows how big of a goofball you are when you worry about dinasors but yet make fun of the “folksy” talk at a hockey game from the very people you want to sell your movies to. What an idiot! Go ahead and talk down on your customers. That’s why bright, intelligent business people do. Go to Europe and enjoy your millions and quit bashing good people and America!!!
Matt, the thought of Palin becoming president is far less frightening to me than the thought of anyone actually listening to the dribble that is spewing from your pie hole. You and the rest of the Hollywood libs should keep talking because the polls go up for McCain every time someone opens their mouth about Palin.
Jason
Don’t thinks there’s ever been a “Bad” Disney movie. And even so I’ll take a bad Disney movie over, seeing a baby die in a stain steel bowl. Lets not forget the “The Born Alive Infant Protection Act” Look it up on Google. Now there’s something to be scarred about. I also can’t believe how scarred these types are. They give America not credit. If we voted Mickey Mouse in. It would concern me, but scarred to Death come on!!!!! I’m shaking in my mouse boots.
If the Dems were smart they would have every actor,actress and musician, both aging and teen throbs alike, just become silent until the election is over. If I am ever on the fence on a choice of candidates, I vote opposite of what they suggest. If they did not voice their displeasure with a Republican, they would be blackballed in Hollywood and have to work in the dangerous world like the rest of us.
Sarah Palin is a hired actress. “We need a white woman on the ticket to win this election. Hmmmm…let’s see….Hey Sarah, go on stage and read this. Thanks! Great job!”
Hey Matt, I would rather sit through a bad Disney movie than one of your bad movies. Not only did you lose your memory in the bourne identity, you must have also lost your acting skills.
Matt, If you weren’t so idiotic as to get your news from the Daily KOS or Huffington Post, you would know that the dinosaur and book stories were proven false by CNN of all people! You’re scared? Barack Obama is 1st on the ticket on your side and you belittle Palin’s experience! Barack’s story is like a really bad Ben Affleck movie. So you, Ben, Brad, Julia, and George, keep telling yourselves how incrediblbly smart all of you are and how middle America is a bunch of morons. McCain’s numbers keep going up each time you make a comment.
Matt, Matt, Matt… You don’t even have a clue. So sad to see how uninformed you are. Like alot of the celebrity types, you need to take off your blinders and get a good look at the real world.
Palin is unknown??!! Well excuse me, Barack Obama has a real track record too… NOT!!!
Come on Matt, get your head out of the sand, or out of somewhere.
Maybe he would know something about her if he went to some real news sources instead of reading the left wing nut-job blogs who report that she believes dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago and she is a book-banner. It would be really nice if these people with all their high-minded intelligence would do their homework before spouting a bunch of B.S. to some celebrity reporter.
Hey Matt,
There’s a 1 in 2 chance that your candidate will be President. How about that! Does it scare you that in a confrontation with Putin he will threaten going to the UN Security Council (unaware that Russia has veto power)? Are you terrified that your Harvard grad doesn’t, or won’t accept established scientific fact, ie. when life begins? Oh, that’s right, you don’t either.
Kiss the ground you are priviledged to walk on, and the country that allows your empty shell to reap the financial benefits you do.
I will not insult your intelligence by suggesting that you actually believe what you just said.
What a duesh. Does he think anyone cares what he thinks about politics, or how retarted he sounds talking about it? I would rather have her facing down Putin than a that pencil neck Barak, in fact, I’d like to see how long pretty boy Damon could survive locked in a room with her. It dose not matter what you want or need to know Matt, no one cares.
Can you say, “career suicide?”
Damon can voice his opinion if he wants. So I don’t agree with all of the retarded ‘SHUT UP’ remarks in these comments and the moronic flaming of his statements and boycotting of his movies.
Personally, I don’t think Sarah Palin is fit to be president for a variety of reasons. And I don’t think Obama is fit to be president either. I share his fear of a president Palin, and I believe it’s a legitimate concern. McCain chose her based on a political calculation, and his bump in the polls suggests that it worked.
I bet Matt feels really good about how much $$ he makes off his movies. How does that work? So little talent, so much $$….
Doug-
Not that any of you d1psh1ts care as facts are basically meaningless to you people.
Obama’s 130 “present” vote are 130 out of 4000 votes in the Illinois state senate, “present” Votes are used normally when you may very well agree a bill but want slight changes and you know there is a revote. You go look up how many times the republicans voted “present”.
As for Obama’s senate records
Obama was the primary sponsor of 152 bills and resolutions introduced in the last Congress. These included bills to create a federal standard for renewable diesel fuel (S.1426), to improve benefits and services for members of the armed forces and veterans (S.3988), and to direct the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to establish guidelines for tracking spent fuel rods (S.1194).
Obama has also introduced a number of bills in the 110th Congress, which convened on January 4. Among the bills Obama has recently introduced, one would “improve benefits and services for members of the Armed Forces, veterans of the Global War on Terrorism, and other veterans.” Obama introduced another bill “[t]o promote the national security and stability of the economy of the United States by reducing the dependence of the United States on oil through the rise of alternative fuels and new technology.” Further, on January 30, Obama introduced a bill (the official text of which is not yet available) that, according to Obama’s January 30 Senate floor speech on the bill, would “cap[] the number of U.S. troops in Iraq at the number in Iraq on January 10, 2007 — the day the President gave his ’surge speech’ to the nation” and would require the process of troop withdrawal from Iraq to begin on May 1 with the goal of removing all combat brigades from Iraq by March 31, 2008.
150 days on the Job, 152 sponsored pieces of Legislation. not bad
Palin- PTA, City Council, Mayor, Governor of the most corrupt states in the union ( Stevens, Young,), troopergate, rumored affairs, pregant 17 year old daughter, Killed the bridge to nowhere after she was for it, then kept the money
billed tax payers for personal travel and meals,
Pork Barrel superstar— etc, etc,
McCain- Senile, Belligerent, bad tempered, called his wife the C-word in front of room full of reporters, Talked to the enemy while Prisoner in Vietnam, Keating 5, has done a damn thing in the senate since 2000 except kiss GW and Roves butt.
pair of winners…keep drinking the koolaid you lunatics..
Does Matt realize that Palin has *more* political experience than Obama? She’s been in some form of government office for over 10 years. Obama has been a Senator for.. what.. one year? Two years?
What’s absurd is that someone like Matt Damon thinks that anyone gives a tinkers damn what he thinks. It’s just unbelievable that these people keep opening their mouths. Maybe the general public will eventually wise up and start holding these big mouths accountable at the box office, as they have the media.
WTF – Jason Bourne is alive and talks politics!
This just proves the point of Mr. Mayer of MGM quoting – after he heard that some of his staff were thinking about “talking” pictures…”WHO THE HELL WANTS TO HEAR AN ACTOR SPEAK.” HA HA HA HA
Matt…. go back to reading simple lined paper and keep that little mouth shut!!!
Hello. my name is Matt Damon and I pretend to play people that I’m really not. Duh! Hmm Hey Matt so which is it? Do you really not know anything about her? Why do you insult people that you son’t know anything about? Why don’t you research. There is no book banning. The only thing you don’t like about her is the “R” in front of her name at the bottom of your TV.
WOW, Matt Damon=Moron Follywood=Home for the Criminally insane Dope-prah= Biased black woman pretending to be the soccer/hockey mothers confidant. That woman has never sat well with us minorities because she tries to be something she’s not, BUT NOW!! she is all about a minority in the oval office, i can’t decide who flip flops more oprahbama, or obama-bin laden. We know who needs to be in office and we WILL win in November, our security, our sovereignty depends on it.
It is very disconcerting to hear my fellow Americans insult another fellow American’s opinion with personal insults instead of outlining your disagreements with objective intelligent arguments. As far as I know, Matt Damon is also a citizen of this great country and his vote and opinion matters just like yours and mine. It is in poor taste for you all to insult him in the manner that you have because his employment happens to be in show business, which is irrelevant. Many Americans are voting this November for McCain just because his VP is a woman, to me, that’s not enough. You claim he is uneducated, ignorant and does not know what he is talking about. If you would also do your research before spouting insults you will know, his education background, as well. Matt Damon is actually a very intelligent man and the fact that he is concerned about grandpa’ and the hockey mom (pardon – couldn’t resist) running our country, which is something to be terrified about, should be applauded not insulted. Negative or positive feedback on a candidate is always a good start – it means people are getting involved in the future of their country. Not every American knew who Sarah Palin was until she was a possible candidate for the VP nomination. Great, she is the governor of Alaska, which is the largest state in land (area at 570,380 square mile) with a population of 683,478, but it does not prepared her for running the most powerful country in the world. Mr. Obama may not have the experience as well, just like Palin, but he has the strongest credentials and he is younger than Mr. McCain, who I admire for his courage and dedication to this country, but he may not be around long enough to run it. However, it is not about Republicans, Democrats, Liberals, etc., it is about America and its people and the future of both. When you vote this November, vote on the issues and the best possible American to run this country – not who is popular, what gender and color they are or what their religious beliefs are. Stop being selfish, put America first and put away your prejudices.
It’s been said before, but I’m going to repeat…
Hollywood… put a cork in it. Your easy access to media is no excuse to spill your unintelligence into the wide open. Use your freedom of speech and press intelligently. They way that most of you speak about the running candidates suggest that you don’t posses the knowledge and facts about each candidate. You really do effect the undecided citizens with your “blingy” influence. Let them hear the truth from the candidates own mouth. If the candidate lies, at least the people heard and discerned for themselves.
Let’s be honest. Whether one candidate or the other wins, you’re still well off in your happy-go-luck rich life. Let me tell you…I’m not jealous towards ANY of you.
You are actors, so act. That’s it!
Here’s one Disney movie that Matt won’t be in: The Man Who Knew Too Much.
What an elitist ASS. Damon is the PERFECT reason that people whose only talent in life is to pretend to be someone else always show themselves to be the fools that they are. Matt, what does dinosaurs have to do with nuclear codes? Maybe in Matt’s snob world they mean something. Oh what the heck. Lincoln was just a rail splitter. Keep it up Matt. Show us what Hollywood REALLY thinks about all of the common/normal people who see your worthless movies.
The scariest thing about this interview is to consider that intellectually challenged people like Matt Damon actually have voting rights in our country. Why doesn’t he move to France?
Hey matt. If you don’t know why libs are represented by a jackass just look in the mirror. It’s people like you pal.
Shut up and act idiot. Stick to the script Linus.
Another empty-headed savant-like talent. He needs to move to the third-world country of his choice, and stop breathing up the good air in the USA.
Hey JoeG, are you for real? How is the weather on your planet?
I have had it with actors/actresses who express their political views publically. Like I would really vote for someone because they are for them. I do my own research, comparisons, and decision making. I have a brain, unlike Brad.
I will never go to see another Brad Movie again. I would rather watch old movies on TCM than support a drip who can’t keep his mouth shut and do the job he is paid to do, act.
What an idiot. Stick to making movies.
What the GOP fails to acknowledge or address is that Matt Damon isn’t the only one who feels this way. There are a lot of questions that need to be answered and sheltering Palin from all interviews only fuels the smear campaign against her. Just because we have questions doesn’t mean you’re liberal or sexist.
Matt Damon certainly knows about bad movies. He has made plenty of them. I am not a republican. Sarah Palin is the best thing since chpopped liver to hit the political scene.
WHY IN THE F^CK DOES ANYONE GIVE A SH!T WHAT matt dorkmon THINKS !!!!
The Bourne sh!t has gone to that thick skull of yours. You conceited elitist a-hole, go back to Baastun where you belong with all of the other east coast limo-lib’s.
You are afraid that she doesn’t have the skill set that Hussein developed while he organized communities? Dinosaurs roaming the earth is the big question to you……not why did you spend years befriending a known terrorist (William Ayers) or write books on inspirational leaders…..like Rev. Wright and socialists like Saul Alinsky who shaped his life? You’re right,…….icky hockey slang is far more offensive especially coming from a woman!
If you are so eager to trust govt. with more of your money, write them a check. If you love Obama so much, send him emails. But leave the big choices to people who actually believe in our Constitutional Republic. Or you could take up acting in China if you love communism so much.
What’s a Matt Damon?
Typical Hollywood elitist liberal idiot. Please, Matt, stick to what you know–horrible acting, partying with other morons like Ben Affleck and marrying bartenders.
to borrow a word from matt…
absurd.
She’s going to have nulcear codes, I’ve got to know if she believes dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago…
how this modest adventure into logic makes any sense is beyond me.
I’m sure he would be a loy more moderate with scientologists and their b-52s.
What a MONUMENTALLY IGNORANT TWIT he is. Has he been taking Barbra Streisand Lessons?????
Hey Matt, for a faggy little puke, you sure seem to think you are important.
I know nothing about her but I am really scared. Mayors and Governors and dinosaurs, Oh my!
Whenever I see Matt Damon now I can’t help but think of the Matt Damon character in Team America whose only line was; “Matt Damon”, and this said repeatedly. It pretty sums up the intelligence of these people. Why do I care what a Hollywood actor thinks? Although I have to say that Matt Damon plays the pensive, concerned citizen part quite well.
SHUT THE F UP AND ACT, YOU IDIOT. Do you think we want OBAMA with the nuclear codes? This is the guy who said that he would never use them under any circumstance. Go play with your friend with the hairpiece, Ben Affleck. You hollywood elitists think you know it all. Just keep it up and it will continue to backfire!! I would take any governor with her experience, over Obama and his community service anytime. She is by the way the highest rated governor in the country at 82%. That is out of 50 states!! Or, did you know there were 50 states. What an ASSHOLE!!
Matt Damon needs to know what Sarah Palin’s dinosaur policy is before he can support her. It’s a perfectly legitimate concern!
Who the H… is Matt Damon, anyway? He has one vote like the rest of us… I am so sick of Hollywood thinking they are experts in Politics. They live in such a different world and are so completely out of touch with reality.
Go take a chill pill Matt and buy a castle out of the country cause you are going to need somewhere else to live (make sure you pad the walls) Palin and McCain will win.
By the way, Matt, I don’t really know you either, but it took me less than 30 seconds to figure out that your elevator doesn’t make it to the top floor.
That is hollywood for you. Damon is real worried about McCain’s impending death, and he would have us believe that the Marxist he thinks he knows, would be preferable to any Republican he is sure he doesn’t know. What a tool.
Matt Sarandon…I mean Streisand…I mean Damon = Major League Tool
The HuffingtonPost wouldn’t even print your dumb ass comments. You are a fraud. If there’s ever a wartime draft I will gladly buy you a train ticket to Canada because there’s no way I’d want to serve in combat with you. I wouldn’t even let rake the leaves in my back yard because you are an incompetent stooge and your movies suck.
Palin is frightening. There is a reason the radical Christian right loves her, and that is because she is one of them. And this is coming from someone who voted for Bush in 00 and 04. Not this time. Way too scary.
Matt:
You went to Harvard? The actuarial tables say that he has a 1 in 3 chance of dying. That is beyond ignorant. A newborn baby would have approximately a 1 in 3 chance of dying by 77. When you have already reached 73, your chances of living past 77 are very high. With your logic, an 80-year old person would already be dead.
Get a clue.
This is absolutely hilarious. I really wish actors like Matt Damon would keep their thoughts on politics to themselves. Its making it harder and harder to actually go see movies when you know how stupid these actors are…
One thing is certain. When Drudge links an article the comments will be dominated by the retarded right wing crowd. You should all go back to pretending your not gay.
What’s more absurd is the possibility of electing Obama which we do know couldn’t even face down Hillary Clinton, let alone Vladamir Putin.
On a separate note, Matt Damon’s recent commercial attempts to come across as bi-partisan, but obviously that is a farce since he is in the tank for Obama.
Matt Damon thinks he’s a genius because someone decided to let him act and pay him way more than he’s worth so now he has the “authority to degrade Sarah Palin”.
Matt: Sarah Palin is more of a man then you are.
And the votes keep on coming over to McCain/Palin, love it!! Say something else Matt, call your buddies and get them to bash Gov Palin too.
Sometimes you can tell good character not by who is FOR the person, but who is against them. Anybody Hollywood hates can’t be all bad.
According to SSA actuarial table, a 72 year-old man has life expectancy of 12 years. Damon is too stupid to read and understand a simple table.
Matt..they are paying you way to much money to say the things they want you to say..Sarah Palin has more balls then you’ll ever have. She doesn’t have to kiss up to your Marxest/Socialist buddies in tinsel town.
Hey Matt!!
Great comments!! Very well informed and you have such a strong basis for your facts!!! You and I should go on the road together and make some more movies.
Hey mattie….what a fag!~!…and a really illiterate one at that….go back to your gay acting job…and shut you ignorant hole…you consistantly confirm your stupidity!!
so ghey!! whew!
MAAAAHHTT DAAAAY-MOOOONNNNN
Hey, Damon…you are just a stupid actor.
Why in the world ANYONE take you or your hollywood cronies political comments seriously?
You may have the bucks$$ but you really lack any political savy or knowledge of the American Constitution yet alone the fundamentals of the American political system. Did you even graduate from High School???
Too bad you have already multiplied, Matt and
produced future Marxists.
Mrs. Palin, to you Matt boy – probably has a higher security clearance than President Bush based on Alaska’s close proximity to Russia.
NEWS FLASH to you and your Hollywood friends -
Obama HUSSEIN isn’t even an American citizen and
won’t provide documents to tell us otherwise.
You and your ilk would hold on to that evil man’s tail while he took you straight to hell.
GOD HAS SENT US AN ANGEL FROM HEAVEN TO SAVE US -
THANK YOU GOD FOR SARAH PALIN – she has more
strength, courage and LOVE for AMERICA than you
liberal bastards.
Get out your tissues…you’re gonna need em.
I LOVE that Matt Damon is skurred.
Prime example of an idiot
…HI I’M MAT DAMON…MY NAME IS MAT DAMON
Why do these stupid, ignorant Hollywood types think that their opinions mean anything to anyone except themselves. He did an interview and devoted that much time to insulting a woman who was the mayor of a ‘very very very small town’ Why don’t you shut up, Matt Damon? Your movies reek, your opinion is one of ignorance and really is only important to yourself. If you want to talk about experience, Matt Damon, your candidate isn’t all that much more experienced than Mr. Obama. How will he face down Putin? With a vote of Present?
I’m changing my vote from McCain to Obama based on Matt’s video. Celebrities are so much smarter than regular folks like us. What an arrogant jerk!
Matt,
I think somewhere along the way you basically lost your way in life, i.e., you have become brainwashed with Babylonia-Hollywood bull. To find your way back to some kind of reality, maybe you should leave that place, start over, then work on becoming a real human being. Honestly, Matt, until you do this, you will be like a lost puppy dog and not have a clue.
To quote Fred Sanford: “YOU BIG DUMMY!”
Bummer, I really liked those Bourne movies a lot. I won’t be watching anything else this idiot does now. Why do these stupid Hollywood actors feel like their political opinons have more value than anyone else? Why would you want to alienate a good number of the people that keep you working by spouting off such stupid nonsense?
Matt,
Sara is an action figure, you play one.
Sara fights corruption, you play the role in movies.
Sara knows how to use a gun and is a real hunter, knows how to live in the wild, fish, boat and kick ass and take names.
You go to a target range and shoot at paper, ask for a cab or limo to get around the big cities, order fish at an expensive restaurant, and get stunt doubles to do your dirty work.
She is more of a man than you pretend to be in the movies or everyday life. Who cares what you have to say or question about Sara, don’t vote for her, vote for the Dem’s. That is the only choice I can about you having.
Well at least he played a smart person in a movie. Her experience is constantly questioned, but Obama’s 143 days in the Senate never is…I will take Palin and her small town executive experience over Obama any day.
Especially with Putin, bad Disney movie or not.
Why do I care what an ACTOR thinks?
what a stupid fag!!
Ok, and we care what this child has to say….because?!?!?!!? He acts for a living, that means he pretends to be someone he isn’t…you know, and intelligent person. He, like so many in La La Land, just show how ignorant they truly are. I think he and Oprah and all those other ‘actors’ should stick to what we pay them for. As we all know, you don’t have to have a brain to act, just a talent. As for Matt, stick to acting.
What else is a Disney movie? The story of two friends who can barely act making it big in Hollywood…following the American dream? You don’t get it, and you never will. It is scary that someone in the world may actually be watching this and saying, ‘yeah, he’s got a point’. Let her have the codes now! Then you can do a sexist movie where you don’t trust a woman having the keys to Armaggedon. Oh…and the slam on evangelicals for believing a literal interpretation of the Bible. NICE. Most of these people pay your salary.
I agree with Damon! How can anyone vote for a VP while being unaware of that candidate’s views on the extinction of dinosaurs. Unfortunately I don’t feel comfortable voting for Obama either since I’m unaware of his views on the Boxers/Briefs debate.
Who cares what the ignorant “pretend people” in Hollywood think. Read something other than a script.
It’s amazing that most of the posters on here are educated enough to know how to use a computer. If Palin is a creationist, then yes she believes that the earth is only 4000-6000 years old, and that the dinosaurs lived among people, and that there were T-rex and Brontosaurus onboard the ark with noah and friends. Mccain isn’t an idiot, but his selection of Palin to try and woo the bitter Hillary Clinton supporters is pretty lame. I’ll vote for Obama just to ensure the pitbull with lipstick doesn’t come that much closer to holding those nuclear keys Matt mentioned. Very nicely spoken Matt. BTW- I am a paleontologist. I won’t get all technical about creationism vs. evolution in this forum, 90% of the posters minds would snap under the pressure and intellectual strain.
And they wonder why Hollywood has had problems over the last few years. They are SOOOO out of touch. Even if you were to give Obama the benifit of having the same experience as Palin (which I think he has less), why does “a heartbeat away” scare you but not the lack of experience stepping in on day one? Why is this excuse given by all libs and not questioned by the media? Why isn’t anyone mentioning his 96 year old mother who seems to have “baffled” the actuaries?
If the dems disagree with policies that’s one thing. These scare tactics are the same as what they claim the reps are putting out.
Another unrelated question – Why do dems assume that ALL women are pro abortion? Why doesn’t choosing not to have an abortion fall under “pro-choice”? Why is the idea of creation a bad idea when one could argue that both creation and evolution are both theories (as a biochemist who studied living beings, I can’t see that the coincidence of all atoms joining at the right portions, etc could work without some guidance. Look at a biochemical pathways chart and it’s complexity.) Is it because the dems think that their ideas are the only ideas? How vain! News flash – Most of America is in the middle and can see this idiocity.
This nit wit keeps saying he’s from Boston…NOT.. he’s from the peoples republic of Cambridge, along with all the other commies in Mass…come to South Boston Matt my boy…we would be happy to properly introduce to the real Boston. Not that carp you put up on the screen in Good Will Hunting..girly man
Jack
Matt prefers men. It’s that simple.
Ban books? Matt, those are Democrat talking points. Its been dealt with and found false. Look here: http://www.newsweek.com/id/157986/ for a list of your petty excuses.
So the dinosaur reference is in relation to her belief in God? So only Evolutionists who believe we came from a rock need to put their hand on the Bible and take the oath for office? Good grief man, shut up and act.
So Matt (M for Moron) seems to think Obama is more qualified than Palin. Why? What has Obama done. Nothing. Liberalism must really cause brain damage. Palin is really getting abused by the hollywood and the media, and it’s only just begun.
THANK YOU MATT DAMON!!! I’m so sick of hearing about Sarah Palin at the dinner table from my mom….she’s a joke, go back to being a hockey mom in Alaska
These people live in a bubble. They go through their whole day with out ever coming in contact with an opposing world view. They just can’t understand why we never vote the same way they do. They never have to defend their Socialist/Liberal ideas, because they only talk to people who feel the exact same way. They are extremely intolerant of any viewpoint that doesn’t line up to their own. They think because we watch some of their movies, we must think the same way. This goes double for the Liberal Democrat and media elites. If they know you disagree with them they assume you are some kind of religious gun toting moran. The far-left thinks Harvard elites should make all the decisions, because middle America is to stupid for Democracy. The Left hates self reliance and independence. Their goal is to get everyone dependent on Government programs, so you will have
no choice but to vote for them. This is really what the big push for Gov. Health care is all about. Once they pass that they will use that as a reason to never vote Republican again. The Big bad conservatives will take away your Health care.
By the way……Just because you go to Harvard does not mean you are qualified to speak for the masses…..it does not hold water in “Small Town America” !
This is why we need a voter qualifications test.To me,if you cannot explain the split Alabama elector slate of 1960,you have no right to vote.
Commenters
You want to send an email to One.Org
and suggest that, if their message is
to set aside differences and unite to
address pressing problems, then they
want to look for a new spokesman.
If the “hockey mom from Alaska” was a democrat maaaaatt daaaaaamon would love the fact.
I won’t be paying for any Matt Damon movies again.
I might download them though.
You can’t steal from a socialist so Pinko Hollyweird won’t mind if I download their movies for free will they?
Go ahead Hollyweird, vote me another tax hike–I’ll just pay for it with the money I would have spent on your movies.
Are you kidding me? Obama has been in the US Senate for 2 years and 19 months of it he’s been campaigning…sooooo how is it that just because she’s been governor for 2 years it makes her less qualified??? Oh that’s right, he was a community organizer that’s waaaay better than Governor!!!
What credentials does Matt Damon have? He PRETENDS for a living. Oh yeah…he pretended to be involved in espionage. That’s a credential right?
OMG! “The Bourne IDIOCY”! Typical Hollywood condescending elitist attitude. Keep it up, it is all GREAT for the McCain campaign – keep on steppin’ in the POO! IDIOT!
Thanks Matt…. if you have time, can you go state by state and tell all us dumb sh^%s who else we should or shouldn’t vote for…Thanks again
I can’t believe the hatred here. What has a liberal done to you today? Seriously. Let’s just relax on our fellow Americans. We need to come together and unite.
I am a very conservative Republican woman, but I will NOT be voting for the McCain/Pailn combo, the last thing we need right now is this crazy religious woman telling me that God has a plan for us. That wack job in Iran say’s the same thing. As much a it kills me to agree with any Celebrity, we dont know enough about this woman, we havent had a chance to look at all the skeletons in the closet!!! Especially the religious ones.
Don’t worry I wont be voting for the Democratic guys either, they scare me too. I already paying for all they illgal aliens in California, and those 2 will suck even more out of my weekly check!!
When the POW commie collaborator, Crash McCain drops dead and burns eternal, the pit bull w/lipstick will have the power to bring about the end days or her self-fulfilling prophecy.
Fools.
once again Matt proves that cause they stick a microphone under your nose does not make you intelligent. your are an actor living in a fantasy world, shut up and entertain me
Matt, Darling. You can say the EXACT same thing about Obama only he has less experience! Is it a sexist thing for you? A Black thing? A Democrat thing? What is the real problem? His Disney scenario is worse, from the hood to the house. That’s playing right now on the Dischizzle
I guess since Matt isn’t familiar with her than she can’t be qualified. Aside from the little bit he overheard at one of Ben Affleck’s coctail parties, how much does he know about Obama? How much does he know about anything? Goodwill Hunting might be mopping floors @ MIT again pretty soon….
MATT DAMON, MATT DAAAAMON, MATTTTTTT DAMOOOON
These idiots in Hollywood don’t realize the more they talk the less relevant the become to us.
Matt, shout up and go play with your “cardboard” candidate, Obama
Hey Matt!
I’d feel much more confident with Sarah’s “folksy” background and values dealing with Vladimir Putin than Obama’s “socialist south-side of Chicago” values!
SHUT-UP and stick to acting.
…you’re an idiot.
Damon, as soon as you take george clooneys dick out of your mouth and ben afflecks dick out of your ass maybe you can have a coherent thought, you swill-licking, ass munching, hollywood butt- pirate.
You actors don’t even know yourselves; you’re the ones living in a fantasy world. The real world is as understandable to you as quantum physics. And 5′10″?! I don’t think so!
I love the fact that Matt Damon claims he doesn’t know anything about Sarah Palin, but obviously knows Barack Huessein Obama, and likes what he knows of him.
-Sold Drugs
-Did Cocaine
-Friends with a Domestic Terrorist
-Radical Preacher that damns America
-A Segregationist & Bigot (Typical White People)
-Corrupt Property Deal With Tony Rezco
He even uses the “Banning Books Lie” … Even though the Lie was already proven to be a lie.
I wonder, does he know if Obama think Dinosaurs lived “400,000″ years ago ???
I’m glad that he has joined the self absorbed that will see his career take a hit for using his Hollywood Status to promote his political agenda.
They always claim to act (and that’s all they do) so much smarter than the average American, but the see how brilliant they are at the Box Office when people don;t show up for their films.
And they wonder why Hollywood is losing money year after year.
The guy is a moron. A complete idiot. What the hell do I care what this nitwit thinks about Sarah Palin? I’m fighting the gag reflex. Got to go.
Matt, do you think dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago? I am pretty sure that it was a little bit longer than that. I assume Sarah Palin knows at least that much…
What scares me is that people will actually take his word as fact because he is an actor. Please, everyone, take the time and find out for yourself what each of the candidates stand for. You may not agree with one of them 100% but there will be some topics that are very important to you and align with your values. It’s obvious that Mr. Damon is using someone’s talking points and has not taken the time to learn about Palin. If he did, he would have found out that what he has been told is not true.
A perfect illustration why I don’t frequent the movie theaters in my town, or anywhere else for that matter. These idiots don’t know when to say “I have no comment on that”.
Damon NEWSFLASH …
Obama has spent his entire Senate Career Campaigning. He selected PRESENT 160 times instead of making a decision.
NOW THAT’S ABSURD !!!
Obama admits to selling marijuana in his book.
And now he’s running for President.
NOW THAT’S ABSURD !!!
PALIN HAS MORE POLITICAL EXPERIENCE THAN OBAMA !!!
He thinks we have 57 States !!! Islam has 57 States !!!
What’s scary is lib Hollywood types espousing political views. We’re this close to shutting up big mouth celebrities like yourself. Go Pallin!
What a bunch of ignorant repug puke on this comment board. WOW! Really, WOW! Matt Damon is a doll and makes excellent points. The blind shall remain blind and take us all down the slippery slope to the apocalyptic abyss called the McCain/Palin presidency. I guess it’s “God’s Will.” God rest our dinosaur bones.
MMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAATTT DAAAAAAAMMMONNNNN!
Freakin’ South Park guys got it right!
The guy’s entirely entitled to his opinion. This is America. Freedom of expression. Great. Fine. Good. No argument.
That said, what possible rationale is there for broadcasting his political opinions in the media? He’s an actor. He’s not a journalist, or an elected official, or a foreign policy expert. If he wants to spend his own money on a commercial for Obama, more power to him.
But, puh-leez, I don’t give a rat’s ass what Matt Damon thinks or doesn’t think about Sara Palin. And watching him get worked up into an hysterical frenzy is just embarrassing. I mean, being passionate about politics is admirable, but try to hold it together.
Clearly, he’s got to be an amazing actor– if a guy like that can portray a character like Jason Bourne so convincingly.
Matt Damon is absurd! He says he knows nothing about Sarah Palin. Come out of your cave and make it your business to learn something. Matt Damon is an idiot!
Typical Hollywood…quote figures you don’t understand. Just checked the tables myself. A 72-76 yr old man has a 3-4% chance of death per yr. So, with McCain you get a 15% chance of an admittedly inexperienced Palin in office in the next 4 yrs. But that’s better than voting Obama for a 100% chance of inexperience in the white house! But look at it this way Matt, atleast you’re still pretty!
and Obama is that much more experienced than Palin? Stick to acting…maybe he is acting now. It’s all he is good and credible at.
Matt honey…did you forget your role in society? You’re a court jester and nothing more. If we want your opinion, we’ll ask for it.
What a freaking clueless little twerp.
It is truly amazing how vacuous moron Hollywood liberal types like Damon and Clooney seem incapable of coming to grips with reality. They still don’t realize that the more they run their mouths, the more Americans turn away in boredom and disgust.
I never could stand this guy. He and Affleck have been arrogant, liberal democrats since they were kids. Now they’re limosine liberals.
Note that his his “Bourne” movies portray the US military and executive branch (i.e., Bush) as the ENEMY, instead the real enemies– Islamic terrorists and communist countries. DON’T WATCH THOSE THOSE STUPID MOVIES!
Poor Matt. Now he gets pushed off the news by another asinine comment from the S.C. Dem chair: “Palin primary qualification is she hasn’t had an abortion.”
To quote Nick Cohen, “He (Obama) understands better than his supporters that it is not a politician’s enemies who lose elections, but his friends.”
Hey, Matt Please tell us what you know about Obama? But hey I am so sure Obama has the qualifications to face Putin???? Your such a dumb arse
In the words of the almighty Trey Parker and Matt Stone
“Maaaattttttt Daaaaaaahhhmonnnnnnn”
Actors are radically overpaid people whose only skill is pretending to be someone else in a plausible manner. Who cares what any of them think? What has Damon ever done for our country besides denigrate it with his insipid comments?
Why would anyone care at all about what Matt Damon thinks?
The stupidity of Hollywood people never ceases to amaze me. She is more qualified than Obama but doofus damon doesn’t care because Obama shares his political views. I love the way he says that based on actuarial tables there is a 1/3 chance McCain will die in his first term. Doofus, statistial tables don’t tell you anything about individuals and they surely don’t apply to the President who probably gets some of the best medical care in the world. I can’t believe this doofus got into harvard.
That’s OK Matty…don’t you worry your pretty little head about this. You go back to pretending and let us do the thinking…
…poor thing.
What’s truly scary is what Damon doesn’t know about Obama or pretends not to know – his completely corrupt years within the chicago political machine. No reforming for him there, he preyed on the poor for money, he was scared to speak out against the corruption (they are now some of his biggest donors), his education plans failed costing millions, he took nearly 1 billion in earmarks and gave some to his wife’s organization where she has a cushy job which doesnt require much paying over 300K a year. His friends are terrorits (F Marshall, B Ayers) His pastor for 20 yrs damns America…yes of course they love him all over the world, He will bring America down to their level.
Doesnt anyone wonder how this guy moved up so fast? Follow his money trail. He even voted against saving the life of infants born who could survive after an abortion. He truly is evil.
listen up to all libs- we know you are scared. we feel it in every nasty rude word you write. your pundits and you of all are thinking you will hurt us. It is a new day and a new time. What we see in all of you is frustration and fear. So please….. keep it up. We know you, we GET you, and we are so ready. This is not your day. We are so strong, so motivated. The bloom is off the rose. Sorry to tell you what 80% of this country already knew….Obama is just a man. He is not the second coming, and he is not ready.So game on….enjoy losing AGAIN
Hey Matt, since you’re against book bans, what do you think about historians being locked up in Canada, France, Switzerland, Austria and Germany for denying the holocaust? That a-ok right Matt? Why aren’t we spreading freedom (i.e. dropping bombs) on these countries
What a dipsh!t. Hopefully Matt will get a Hollywierd script where he can play an intelligent person because he sure can’t pull it off in his real life.
Capitalism allows us to support people with our choices on where we spend our money. I know who will no longer recieve my support. It might not be alot to this multi-millionare, but if enough of us stop watching his movies he’ll know we mean business.
Another hollywood nitwit who dosent have a clue. Matt dosent have 1 percent of the character Sarah Palin has. All these hollywood imbeciles and leftist journalist attacks are backfiring on Obama. He will lose big. McCain /Palin CHANGE THAT WILL WORK ‘08
Matt is worried about less than 2 years experience for Sarah but doesn’t seem concerned about 143 days worth of experience his guy has. Its an AOBMANATION!
Vladimir Putin Former head of the KGB
Sarah Palin Hockey Mom
Better learn to speak Russian, Amerika
An y’all deserve it
The movie, “Team America” had it right several years ago… Matt Damon is a moron. He is a paleolithic knuckle-dragger. And who cares what he thinks anyway. Damon, yet another actor my family will boycott at the theaters and on CD.
…aaaah..Matt..aaaaa..so..aaaaa.you…aaaa…
admit…your…aaaaa…..candidate is less qualified for president than our pick for vp.
I thought you were a man Matt. I was wrong.
You are afraid of her solid Christianity )same as founding fathers)
but somehow not of Obama’s Muslim roots and radical anti_American pastor of 20 years?
Your afraid of her ability to control “The Buttons”
But not his relationship with Bill Ayers and the Weathermen.
I could go on but you are a hollywood scared actor pussy. You will do as you are told. Enjoy your money you accident of birth.
According to actuarial tables John McCain’s should live 12 more years. Idiot.
Nobody really gives a rats ass what Matt Damon thinks. He is a good actor but I would go pick Sarah Palin to outshoot Matt Damon on a gun range any day of the week. Palin also has bigger balls than Damon and Obama. She has kicked Big Oils ass in Juneau during the special session.
I also think Charilie R Senator from Wassila Huggins would make a great S o Defense. At least he would better than Gates.
Back to clinging to my Guns and Religion.
Absolutely absurd comments from Damon. At least he didn’t declare that the stumbling, bumbling, no experience Obama should have the job. Sarah Palin is America. He obviously doesn’t think a woman can handle the job. He will soon find out just what a woman is capable of. Stick to what you do best Matt. Nothing.
Wow!! after seeing all these negative posts blasting Matt for speaking real and with some sanity on the Palin issue…I definitely know that America is NOT ready to vote for a black man and that a majority of Americans are dumb ass sheep-like lemmings racing to be dumber than the guy next to them…Idiocracy (2006)comes to mind..
Matt should read a few polls, one in point “How Much Influence Do Hollywood Actors have On Politics”….Nada…Next To Nothing. He’s a Bostonian…kinda like saying the San Francisco of the eastern seaboard. Quit pissin off your fans out here Matt and STFU.
Swap Obama’s name for Palin and gee, that shoe fits even better. Had Damon an ounce of neutrality, he would spew the same blather about Obama, because it’s true. No experience whatsoever that justifies being leader of the free world. None; zero. And THAT guy would have the nuclear codes? And THAT doesn’t scare the Harvard man? What fools Damon and his ilk are. Actuary tables? Huh? So Matt’s money is on McCain pushing up daisies in less than 4 years? Damon, go do a remake of Cast Away and sort of not find enough rope to make that raft, please?
Yet, another brainless actor. No wonder all they can do is act like somebody else…they have no intelligence to do anything else.
Everytime I hear an celebrity express their opinion about this election in order to try and influence the masses, it turns me off! I mean turns me off! From Oprah on down – they need to get back to what they do best – acting like somebody else. After they share their opinions (that nobody asked for) I have a hard time watching any, any of their work from that point on. Whenever I see their face, I think about the dum comments they have made, and it takes away from the art they are involved in.
Therefore, I mark them off my list of movies, TV I would watch if they are in them. I can tell you this…it is getting harder and harder to view anything out of Hollywood at all! The majority of them are ultra-liberal bigots, and I just don’t identify with ultra-liberal bigots!
There will be only one winner for the Presidency in November and that will be President Elect McCain and Vice President Elect Palin. They have my vote (good golly – did not take the advice of Matt?) and I, trust, they will have yours also!
The last thing I want to hear is an actor who pretends to know one iota about politics and what people want in a President. For every reason why Mr. Damon is worried about Sarah Palin being the Vice President, I can apply the same logic to Barack Obama. The parody is that Barack is running to become President on a shorter resume’ than Sarah Palin. Being a Senator is not a magic ticket to become President. When will the elitist in Hollywood learn that they are popular for what they pretend to be. It is almost like the Holiday Inn Express commercials. I’m not a politician, but I pretended to be one in a National Lampoon Movie. Get out and meet the people Matt. You will learn more about yourself than you think.
Matt’s been watching too many of his own bad movies. What makes him feel any safer against Putin with the community organizer and D student token from Columbia? Is it the “Change We can Believe In” logo, Matt? Is it Obama’s promise to sit down and have tea with rogue states?
Matt Damon, like most of Hollywood, is an unlettered, under-educated idiot.
Matt Damon doesn’t know anything about her -soooo she shouldn’t be vice-president. And he is upset and thinks it is absurd that a plain old hockey mom will be debating with Putin. But of course actors and actresses know ALL about politics and understand the problems of the average American citizen. He’s concerned that someone who is in the political spotlight and is in a governing role “believes that dinosaurs were here only 4000 years ago.” Does he think the voters in her home town and the voters of the entire state of Alaska would vote for a nutcase? Disdain for small town America and of the “flyover” states is common among the coastal elite. Does he not understand that these hyperbolic charges have been debunkded by Snopes.com????? Is Matt Damon such a gullible guy? And moreoever, who cares what HE thinks????? He’s been in some pretty bad movies himself.
Hey Matt,
Quit pushing your lib opinion to us Americans who pay way too much money to see your movies. Just shut up and tell your other hollywood libs to do the same.
By the way, what the hell do we know about Obama. Oh, yeah that’s right he wants to talk to Putin and the Iran dictator.
Obama is a boyscout Havard empty suit idiot that cannot identify with the average American like you. Try some of that lipstick it looks good on you when you played your best role in Team America.
Thanks Matt! For speaking what so many of us are feeling. SARAH PALIN is indeed a BAD Disney movie and all the dumb asses Drudge sent over who are coming down on you, deserve her. The only thing they don’t know is that SOON when she stops hiding out, we will see the REAL her and the majority of the American public, WON’T be buying it on election day.
This is why I haven’t gone to the cinema since 1998.
If little Mattie was a little brighter he would know that Russia know has a new Pressie who would be dealing with SP if she became president and porr old Vlad-s-smear dies not get to deal with the big wigs any more however what can one really expect from someone with a single figure IQ?
Matt, I will never watch another one of your movies again! What an irrelevant actor with an ignorant comment.
Shut up and die!
Hey Matt if your so scared then move to Canada with Susan Sarandon.
Good lord what a moron…
News Flash, Hey MATT, if you know how to read and do some research you just might learn something. However, thats assuming you have some level of intelligence that is conducive to learning.
You know how to run with the hollywood freaks, and run your mouth off, but I am not sure about the learning part.
We will see.
