Matt Damon On Palin: "Like A Really Bad Disney Movie... Totally Absurd," Palin Responds (VIDEO)

VIDEO HERE: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/10/matt-damon-on-palin-like_n_125334.html



UPDATE BELOW: PALIN RESPONDS

Actor Matt Damon spoke out on the Republicans' choice of hockey-mom Sarah Palin for VP. Damon compares her rise to a 'really bad Disney movie' and says it's absurd that this woman could become President.

"I think there's a really good chance Sarah Palin could become president, and I think that's a really scary thing... I think the pick was made for political purposes... Do the actuary tables and there's a one out of three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn't survive his first term and it'll be President Palin... It's like a really bad Disney movie. The hockey mom, you know, 'oh, I'm just a hockey mom'... and she's facing down President Putin... It's totally absurd... it's a really terrifying possibility... I need to know if she really think that dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. I want to know that, I really do. Because she's gonna have the nuclear codes.

UPDATE: PALIN CAMP RESPONDS:

Maria Comella, a spokeswoman for Palin, called the comments "name-calling."

"It's not surprising that the Barack Obama and his celebrity supporters continue to tear down Governor Palin with little more than blatant name-calling," she said. "It's clear they're threatened by a candidate who actually has a record of achieving reform and change, while Barack Obama just talks about it."

2. ROFLMAO! Matt Damon, you are awesome.
What's weird is that they keep pushing this celebrity meme and then they gush all over Palin and somehow her being a celebrity isn't bad? Plus, I am so happy to hear a celebrity who has smarts as well as looks. He actually knows what an actuary table is and makes cogent criticisms abut Palin.

4. Name calling? Hmmm... I'm looking for where he called her a name.
I think there's a really good chance Sarah Palin could become president, and I think that's a really scary thing... Nope. No name here.

I think the pick was made for political purposes... Nope. No name here.


Do the actuary tables and there's a one out of three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn't survive his first term and it'll be President Palin... He did call her President Palin. Is this what she considers name calling? Well, I guess if you're a sessionist...


It's like a really bad Disney movie. The hockey mom, you know, 'oh, I'm just a hockey mom'... Hockey Mom. She wears it on here sleve, but we can't wall her that??? Hmmmm...


and she's facing down President Putin... Nope. No name here.


It's totally absurd... Nope. No name here.


it's a really terrifying possibility... Nope. No name here.


I need to know if she really think that dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. I want to know that, I really do. Because she's gonna have the nuclear codes. Nope. No name here.




So, President Palin and Hockey Mom is name calling. Wow. :eyes: She's ready to sit down with Putin. :eyes:

5. Matt Damon Isn't Even An Obama Supporter
He's on the record wanting to know the stances of ALL the candidates.
