Good points Matt.. I've always like Damon from the start, and here he makes some SENSIBLE, SERIOUS points about Palin as your next possible President..
Next Possible President? Excuse me, you fucking hypocritical cunt, are you even aware that Barack Obama has no experience either? (And he's actually running for PRESIDENT)
What the fuck would you rather have, a President with no experience, r a Vice President with no experience?
"..if McCain crocks than we are stuck with scary palin. IDIOT don't call people stupid."
Totally ..and yes, i think we DO know alot more about Obama, considering.. *and yes, he is "much" more qualified to run, doesn't matter the gender at all either.
Ask Obama if dinosaurs existed 4000 yrs, ago.. 'NOT.
Perhaps all these people are showing us only what they think we need to know? We truthfully have no absolute clue to who or what they are about...only what they have chosen to share with us and do we ABSOLUTELY know it to be true?
Sometimes I feel the truth is in what is not being said.
HEY GUYS Forget Palin or Barrack! You can take our Prime Minister "Kevin Rudd" Hes as much use as a Chocolate Teapot and as Interesting as a Venetian Blind
How about bill gates or steve jobs for president? Ingenious people who have built monster corporations on an idea and have been pretty damn successful.
That's what i often thought, let's get Trump, Gates, Oprah, or Montel in there. I saw an autobio on Gates awhile back...and man, i must say i was impressed. Maybe the country should to be run like an accountable business, instead of a hollywood sideshow..
I don't like Palin AT ALL - and I think choosing her as VP was a huge mistake on McCain's part... but the scrutiny she is under is the same scrutiny we should be putting Barack Obama under.... HE doesn't have any experience either and no one really bothers to ask what he's done - and quite frankly the things he's done in the past turn my stomach.
An investigative reporter put Obama under the microscope, and wrote a book based on the FACTS of his political career thus far, "The Case Against Barack Obama". It is a book that even Obama supporters should read so that they know who they're voting for and can make an INFORMED decision - not one based on presidential candidacy sound bites and sanguine slogans.
The truth of his history is that he has PROVEN to be against everything he claims to stand for - and that is based on documented fact, not an anti-Obama extreme conservative's opinion.
Back to Palin though...yes... she scares me.....maybe even enough to vote for Obama....
that's funny...considering he spends the first several pages of the book admonishing people that are just running around slandering Obama rather than using real reasons.... but whatever you say..... every discussion you get involved in turns into you launching a full out attack on anyone who doesn't agree with you... so spew drivel all you won't... I won't give you any satisfaction.
oh, and being a republican doesn't automatically make Freddoso a liar, and being a democrat doesn't automatically make Obama the squeaky clean savior of our nation.... I am a democrat, but I can still be open minded, and acknowledge truth. Obama's voting history, etc is public record....if anyone cared to look......
I suppose if you're a beluga whale or polar bear you're as equally without luck as a registered American voter when it comes to dealing with someone like Palin. Those seemingly lovable creatures are, according to Palin, in no immediate danger of being a memory trail on the eighth page of "Well, the Little Fuckers Extinct Now" book. She also enjoys capital punishment, and would probably execute those marriage craving pillow biters moments before she signed on with a strictly formal photo shoot for the NRA's December issue of "Armed Bitches in Office." And for those somewhat loose women, abortion would become an afterthought, leaving your nympho appetites on the front lines of welfare assistance in order to maintain that financial relief after being overrun by four results of those fun nights out. So club that seal, pocket that neon, raspberry flavored condom, roll that fag, lest he forget his place, and let us vote with our hearts and minds.
i have watched all 3 of her nationally televised interviews, and i feel so sad for gov. palin. i can't watch w/o feeling a strong urge to hit the mute button. some republican (women) have asked her to gracefully bow out, as they find her to be an overwhelming embarrassment.
I think she's the next William Shatner, with the fresh addition of breasts. Those sharp, yet overdone pauses in-between what we expect to be intelligent remarks, which usually fall short of being anything memorable. It's an intellectual corner found somewhere between the genius of Brooke Shields, and the Olympian finesse of Gary Coleman.
Matt Damon, onscreen, displays the capability of wrangling the mental stage from great minds like Lao Tzu, Gaius Marius, or Archimedes. Unfortunately, when we listen to him speak, without the golden presence of a script or dialogue screen, we see a grown sitting verbally-naked, and near alone. "Does she believe dinosaurs lived 4,000 years ago?" Damon says, with a noticeable zeal in his voice, as though he's cornered Palin like the helpless, kindergarten-class idiot that devours glue. Don't worry Damon, we still appreciate your films, just don't hurt our ears with your unscripted thoughts. Find a fucking thought editor!
You can be experienced enough and "still" make incompetent decisions. Experience isn't necessarily a prerequisite for sound judgement & good common sense. Palin may make a decent governor for Alaska, but not Presidential material in my eyes.
Intellectual, progressive, idealistic, articulate, sincere .. are a few keywords i would use to describe Obama. Wish i could've voted..lol
Matt on Palin
