The race for the White House is heating (and all tied) up as millions of Americans have become enthralled with the rock star that is Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
Matt Damon? Not among them!
You could say the Good Will Hunting actor is the anti-Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Here's what Damon had to say to the AP about the Republican V.P. nominee ...

Matt Damon for president!
September 10th, 2008 2:31 PM
ROFL...the dinosaurs part was funny...I guess what Matt needs to understand is that presidential elections are all about the money and since the GOP was down on it they had to make a desperate move...so yes, Pres. Palin could happen...and it will be an utter disaster if it does...i never thought the GOP could top Bush but I guess it's happening right now.

A RESPONSE TO ACTOR, MATT DAMON ...
MATT ...
You're just an actor, and everyone knows that you and Ben Afflick have been in the tank for Obma, even before Palin came along. Your lines are written for you, just like a speech writer creates the lines for Obama.
A director tells you what to do each moment . Make-up people and costurme designers work on your
appearance. Other than that, you're just like anybody else, except you seem to think that since you're
a manufactured celebrity, your opinion means more, but it doesn't.
QUESTION:
IS PALIN QUALIFIED COMPARED TO OBAMA ?

Once again ... if you compare McCain/Palin's track record with Obama/Biden's, it's no contest. McCain/Palin are a hundred times more qualified to lead this country. McCain/Palin show scores of actual achievements and solid service to America, while once again, Obama's track record is one of excessive absences from his responsibilities, and all talk with no actual experience, or contributions to America.
Like Governor Palin has pointed out ... Obama had the time to write two memoirs, but never wrote one piece of significant legislation ... not even when he was in the state legislature. Regarding earmarks, and the economy ... If Obama gets elected, his irresponsible and clueless ideas for shifting America's wealth would turn the U.S.A. into a third world country, with businesses laying off employees to keep their doors open. Obama's ideas for national security would de-fang America and make us weak, putting us at the mercy of the world's tyrants.

matt, who is this guy and when did we start taking political advice from an actor. who does he think he is? secondly, b/c palin is a mother, she doesn't know about dinosaurs and whatever other jargin you throw at her. but obama- this guy who we still know nothing about is your choice? why b/c he's a democrat? got a better reason? we hear that oboma is about change yet how does he plan to implement his changes? you should really think it through before voicing your opinion for fear of sounding ignorant. matt stick to making kids and writing crappy screenplays.

I wonder what gives these Hollywood actors the idea that they and their opinions are interesting to any thinking person? They are a persona on a screen. Be it a TV screen or the so-called "silver screen." I have an opinion just like Matt Damon or any of his ilk. However, I do not stand around in my office and preach to those around me who do not want to hear me spout off my rhetoric. Why do these actors use their fame to pour out their sophomoric dribble?

They give their opinions because they can. Who are you? Overwhelmingly they support Obama, and the celebrities are even in the highest tax brackets, and they support him, because they know he is the candidate to repair this country. So be careful who you criticize, when they could be paying, and are willing to pay, for your children's health care.
Mccain/Palin is a joke. If you want four more years of the same crap, then you should go form your own country, and let the Americans get back to fixing what needs fixed.

Dems are panicking and this is more evidence of the lack of education of our celebrities. If Matt had watched the two parties conventions, he would have a lot of information to make an informed decision. He is the one not taking responsibility to research the candidates, which seems to be a common trate for liberals. What IS truly absurd is that they are clammering to put someone with absolutely zero executive experience in to high office! It is just as sick and depraved to insinuate McCain will die of natural causes in the next 4 years as it is to make the same claim of Obama by unnatural causes which street talk puts at an equal 1 in 3 chance. Celebrities are all about Charisma, but Character is lacking in everything I read or hear by liberal candidates or supporters since Palin gave such a great speech. Obama, the absentee senator who usually votes "present" couldn't even pick the right running mate. He shunned Hillary, who darn near beat him in the primaries, for a guy who is the "poster boy" for entrenched Washington politics as usual - and Obama claims he is all about Change! He criticises McCain for his former lobbyists on staff, yet Biden's own son is a working lobbyist! You like to claim McCain is the same as Bush, yet Obama isn't even as good as Carter, but most of yo are too young to remember what a putz Jimmy was and how bad he was as president.
You liberals complain that Conservatives have closed minds - you guys might try opening your eyes and ears!
I'm gonna miss Matt Damon movies, but he just joined my "DO NOT WATCH" list, with the ilk of DeNiro, Affleck, Baldwins, etc.

What is wrong with Matt Damon? Who cares what he thinks, (I guess brainless people might be thinking Jason Bourne is telling them to vote for Obama). Obama is a joke, he refuses to do town hall debates but then in a recent speech says that McCain and himself need to debate the issues, HuH? What qualifies Obama to be president, he promises to bring change? Guess what the guy who used all that BS two years ago(Gov. Deval Patrick) has doesn't done squat as govenor of Mass, so what makes anyone think the Obama will do anything different. We believe in change, a new hope and by the way Im going to make my Vice President a guy who has been in congress for 20+ years and cant tell his ass from his elbow. But vote for Obama or your a racist, isn't that right Reverend Wright?
