Screen star Matt Damon told the Associated Press that he considers the prospect of a President Palin to be a "really terrifying possibility."

"I think there's a really good chance that Sarah Palin could be president," he said, "and I think that's a really scary thing."

Noting Palin's relative youth in the political sphere as mayor of a small town in Alaska and the state's governor for less than two years, "I think the pick was made for political purposes," he added, "but, in terms of governance, it's a disaster."

"You do the actuary tables--there's a one-out-of-three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn't survive his first term, and it will be President Palin."

"It's like a really bad Disney movie," he continued. "'I'm just a hockey mom from Alaska,' and she's the President! And it's like, she's facing down Vladimir Putin using the...folks stuff she learned at the hockey rink. You know, it's absurd."

"The fact that we've gotten this far, and we're that close to this being a reality, is crazy...I need to know if she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. That's an important--I want to to know that, I really do, because she's going to have the nuclear codes."

Thanks for that. Now I am sure that McCain is the man.

Ever wonder why movie actors and attresses need manuscripts to learn their lines from for a movie or TV sitcom? These are not the brightest bulbs.

I heard his remarks.

Anyone that needs to be told what to say (manuscripts), what do do
(producers) and what to eat, wear, drink and drive (commercial endorsers) is well lacking more than just judgement. Add in character.

Gotta love how right-wingers hate Hollywood people unless it happens to be Reagan or Schwarzenegger or Fred Thompson or Tom Selleck or Chuck Norris or Dennis Miller or Ben Stein etc etc.

Hypocrites as always.

I think you need to look up the definition of 'hypocrite'.

Here ya go:

Hypocrisy (or the state of being a hypocrite) is the act of preaching a certain belief or way of life, but not, in fact, holding these same virtues oneself.

So how does that apply to someone who doesn't agree with Mr. Damon?
