He is 100% right. Why aren't more people talking about how unqualified she is?
i love matt damon!!!!!
WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THAT? CAN HE NOT EVEN LOOK AT A CAMERA? WAS HE READING A PROMPTER? Let's look at it this way… Say if Biden all of a sudden had to step up and be president. Would we want an emotional loose cannon having the nuclear codes?
Say McCain Say McCain
baby..now I love you
want to be around
I ain't playing games
Say McCain Say McCain
vote..McCain gave us girlz
a woman..let's CELEBRATE BITCHES
Re: Teacher_Blogger_Activist –
More people aren't talking about how "unqualified" SHE is because it would just further expose how unqualified Obama is. lol.
lmao that woz seriously funny & i think i just fell in love with matt damon!.
Finally- someone with some sense. Thank you Matt Damon!
Re: PoisonBitchyIvy –
Celebrating!!!!
i have to agree with him.
go matt!
Matt's opinion is a very logical one, and if people of this 'gossip and media generation' cant see past the juice gossip and making her underdog and voting that way, the usa once again will be the laughing stock of the globe.
Ur country is pathetic…'we are the greatest nation in the world' …..mostly said by americans who never even been outside their own country.
Seriously shape up and don't fall for the very cheap trick that is being played on you.
Can you seriously see this woman accross from other world leaders and make a good impression…. seriously…ask yourself, and if your answer is "yes" try and motivate your answer..motivate means think about 'the why'
Good luck USA, i hope you will be smarter than you have been the past 8 years
1. He's hot.
2. He's right.
3. He's hot.
He's in an interview - it's not like he's called a press conference to announce his political views or has said it at an inappropriate time. He was clearly faced with a question and just answered it intelligently.
The world wants Obama to be president. We need him to be. We would not survive another eight years of republican majority if it's going to be anything like the last four. The only thing that America has given the world in the last eight years is the NINA loan disaster and began to drive us all into an economic crisis worthy of the early 90s and 70s.
We know nothing of Palin except her spin and what the tabloids have splashed everywhere - we know she's fundamentalist and would most likely apply this to her presidency if McCain were to die (a likely outcome of his presidency - dude is old!), meaning back alley abortions abounds, more kids and young mothers on welfare, more women driven out of education and the work place due to unexpected pregnancies… you can say this can all be avoided with caution, but NO birth control is 100% foolproof, and waiting until marriage hardly means you're suddenly ready for a baby in your life just because you have a wedding ring on. This, the widespread addition of creationist teaching in the classroom, and other nonsensical political dogma, is unacceptable from a political figure.
Here in the UK, our prime ministers rarely admit their religion or religious denomination. Tony Blair kept his deep belief in Christianity hidden until after his spell as PM was over for the simple reason for keeping religion and state separate. When your presidents can take a leaf from that book, and your people can vote with confidence in that, the world will rejoice on that day.
Vote with your head, not your heart.

Goodnight folks!
wow assholes matt damon happens to be a well educated PERSON. his career is irrelevant. he has an opinion just like a teacher or anyone else would. i don't exactly agree with him sharing it with the world but he's really causing no harm. he's not trying to persuade anyone or make them agree. and even if he was, any person that can be persuaded to change their vote over a short interview isn't a very passionate voter in the first place. and it's not like he's wrong. John McCain's gonna kick the can and that crazy woman would run this country. obamaaa 08
to quote Team America "MAAATTTTT DAAAAMMMOON", member if the Film Actors Guild (F.A.G.)..what an idiot
hell yea she scares me!!!
Obama/Biden 08
wow i never realized he was such an idiot, glad i know now!!!!
Re: bmac –
According to the line of David (Biblical), the world is around 4,000 years old. This is in line with most Creationalist beliefs, as they argue that scientific tests on the age of rocks, fossils and alike are faulty and the world really is around 4,000 years old. The existence of dinosaurs, of course, undermines this and that's Matt Damon's POV.
About time somebody said something!!!!!!!! Really, I'm all for McCain and Obama fair fight, but, PALIN?!! Really shows how much McCain cares about this country!! I am really scared that Palin could be president!! Really?! No experience what so ever and we alll know the only reason that McCain picked Palin because he wanted to attract all of Hilary's voters! Yea, I guess it's all about the votes and not the country!
Matt Damon is sooo right. He can speak, all he wants. His words are true and they are 100% right. Is she a crazy nut bag behing the scenes? She has 4 kids? Trying to be a mom, Alaska, then VP, and Def President? Mccain will kick the bucket shortly. Her kids are f-ups and she needs to focus on her home life, not trying to be a VP. Preach Matt Damon
He took the words right out of my mouth. His fears are my fears. What if this person does get into the White House? I want someone with some real background running the country. We just spent 8 years with someone who was not qualified. I kept saying, well - who ever wins, it won't be as bad as George Bush…..well now it can! McCain wins, he has a hear attack and Palin is the new U.S. president. A real NIGHTMARE! We need to fix our country, not break it some more!
folksy and in inexperienced? sounds like the oh so loved mr. obama to me. 193 days. less than our children spend in a school year. no executive experience at all. his whole schtick is new american pop folk lore. a bad disney movie indeed… rallying the youth of america using heart throbs and gossip mongers to vote for a man with less experience than spears dietician.
OMG This is exactly what I was thinking. He said it in a nut-shell. This was a purely political pick. Its a ridiculous pick. And the fact that this woman might someday be president, wakes me up in the middle of the night in a cold sleep. Honestly, some of you people need to wake up, and stop voting people in office that you "like" or you think is "cool". This country is in a serious crisis. Its time to stop all of the bullshit. It really IS time for a change.
I joined Perezhilton.com just so I could say this about the post concerning Matt Damon:
thank you from the bottom of an educated American's heart. Sarah Palin is unqualified in every sense of the term and her voting record is a disaster. for the rest of the people making senseless ad hominem attacks, pick up a book concerning politics/history/current events before running your mouth (cough cough arrora, jonathanonetreehill, abercorey, princessbitch cough cough cough).
Completly agree. I am so glad he is saying this, I hope more people will listen, and be able to openly talk about it without being called out for being 'sexist". I truly am frightened as well. I think it's sad that American politics have to come to the point that we feel being intelligent is a bad thing in a leader. The Idea of McCain was already a frightening thought, but Sarah Paln completly disregards the seperation of church and state, brings the rights for women, homosexuals, and minorities, backwards from all the progress that has been made. I hope America will start asking questions. THANK YOU PEREZ FOR COVERING THESE IMPORTANT ISSUES
He is a blooming IDIOT if he thinks all Palin is, is a hockey mom. Do your research Matt. why is it celebrities don't want to talk about their private life but feel it is their right to rudely shove their thoughts with us?
Re: Sumfunwow – well said!
Thank God someone is talking about this! You go Matt!
First of all - I find his comments offensive to women, and specifically mothers. He wouldn't be making fun of Obama had he declared himself a "hockey dad" in his free time…Damon is being condescending. Being a "hockey mom" is not her resume for VP. She has done a lot more with her political career than Obama has. Check this comparison out:
Executive experience
Obama: Makes executive decisions every day that affect the lives of his campaign staff and a vast crowd of traveling journalists
Palin:Makes executive decisions every day that affect the lives of 500,000 people in her state, and that impact crucial issues of national economic interest such as the supply and cost of energy to the United States.
Courtesy realclearpolitics.com
What is scary is Hollyweirdos who meddle in politics.
Right on Matt Damon! I couldn't agree more! People need to stop jumping on the bandwagon and really RESEARCH every aspect of these candidates before they vote!
I think he has a women problem..Especially when you come accross (well what if she has to deal with Vladmir Putin? Yeah what if she has to? Fuck off
Re: ImRonBurgundy? – I think the hockey mom statements are directed clearly at the way Palin is marketing herself as person and VP, and nothing to do with trying to be offensive - Palin HAS put herself out there as the plucky hockey mom, good Christian and "average mom", even in her approach to the veep role. I thought that would be fairly evident.
Go MATT!!!! I couldn't agree more and you put it soooo well and I laugh about the last comment… You're right on! and you're HOT
Agree!
sarah palin is so unbelievable scary to me - i'm totally a feminist and everything but i think palin (if president) would set this country wayy back in terms of civil rights rather than move it forward by the mere fact of her being a woman as a president.
FUCKIN DUMBASS CELEBRITIES
keep your nose outta shit oyu dont know!!! rudeee
"i dont know anything, nor do i think i will know anything about her in the next 8 weeks"
fucking cuz your not educated~ youcan obviously read about politics, so why dont you? look her up on the internet and see what she stands for you bastard! "soccer mom being president" you are sexist and a dumbass uninformed ignorant asshole!! "if mccain survives his presidency" cmon seirously?! hes 72!!!!! hes not 90! this guy is just dumb, i lost a lot of respect for him
just because we are an actor does not mean you can't voice your opinion. theater is one of the best forums for politics, i think it is extremly condecending to say that his opinion doesnt matter because he is just an actor. i think calling her out in this hockey mom thing is legitimate when palin and the gop is making a running platform.
Palin doesn't scare me as much as these arrogant Hollywood celebs who feel the need to share their viewpoint with me and the rest of the world. Do they really think I care what they think OR make political decisions based on their inane thought??!! They get paid to ACT, sing, dance, whatever…… The last thing I want is their opinion! In other words SHUT UP!
As if we don't already have enough reasons to love Matt Damon.
She's not scary - there are a lot of people in this country like her.
I'm not a Democrat or a Republican and I am DAMN proud of that fact these days.
But I'll be voting Obama/Biden. It's the economy, mostly, among other issues.
Republicans have gotten too good at pretending to be regular people in order to screw them over, sorry to say.
And most Democrats are a bunch of wimps and fools. But Obama's good.
matt said that really well
I am one RELUCTANT and PISSED Republican because Palin is on the ticket!!!!!
I completely agree with Matt Damon.
Go Matt! Well articulated, good points. Many of the people here and in the USA are dumb asses and that is why Palin's potential appointment as V.P. is not being looked at as it should be. Shocking, isn't it?
Dumb ass general public. Many cant' even find Alaska on a map so they are going to try to insult Damon instead.
Matt Damon has a point. He is questioning her critical thinking skills. Creationists are known for refuting and being ignorant of widely accepted science. There is a gross lack of knowledge that is being spewed from Creationists that science-weak individuals gobble up, including Sarah Palin. This is an issue because we have a potential VP that does may make decisions based on facts.
I'm not an Obama fan, but people really need to wake up and smell the coffee about the impending McCain/Palin disaster. I can't believe how the politicalmedia machine is working, and how people are buying into Palin the same way they bought into Bush. It's like the country gets hypnotized only to wake up years later & go "OOPS." Bizarre.
i totally agree with him 150 million %
Re: Princess Bitch –
He studied English at Harvard…. Did not graduate, nonetheless, the man is educated. I love the internet. I would never hear ignorance with such passion otherwise.
HAHAHA he put that REALLY really well.
Re: Smirks –
hell yea…celebrate
history is being made and not by obama
but by mccain.
thank you mccain, you have lifted my spirit 100%
I was dying after hilary got the shaft
now I'm alive again.
SOMEONE PLEASE TELL OBAMA HE IS BORING ME TO DEATH
TELL MATT DAMON IS SO BORING AND LOOKS LIKE A FAKE CHINK
WITH A MASK ON. BORING..UGLY..

BITCHEZ ROK
That was fun to watch. He seems genuinely scared. That made my day……..
The truth will come out…and the truth will set us free. Geraldine Ferraro gave Mondale the same "bounce", but the ball bounced back. Sarah Palin is a liar and a murderer. She supports the aerial hunting of wolves and actively participates in the senseless bloodsport. Just look up on youtube, Sarah Palin Supports the Aerial Hunting of Wolves. It's horrifying.
She openly hates gays, Catholics, Jews, Blacks and any other group that is not hers…white, Christian & VERY conservative. I consider myself a Christian and DO NOT AGREE WITH THE FACT SHE CALLS THE IRAQ WAR GOD'S PLAN"!!! She agrees with Osama Bin Ladin (sp?) on that one…and THAT IS FUCT! She had an affair. She is willing to uproot (or worse) abandon her family for power. I am a feminist and a mother and fully believe she needs to go home to her state, take care of her children & start cleaning up the mess she has created in her own Alaska.
PLEASE PEOPLE WAKE UP! ARE YOU READY FOR THE END OF THE WORLD BECAUSE SHE IS READY FOR PROPHECY TO BE FULFILLED! DO YOUR RESEARCH AND STOP LISTENING TO THE SAME REPEATED SPEECH…SPEWING THE SAME LIES DESPITE CONCRETE EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY. HER SHIT JUST KEEPS PILING UP…
ASK YOURSELVES: DO YOU WANT YOUR CHILDREN DROWNING IN IT?
Re: PoisonBitchyIvy – hahah I don't think you are in any position to call anyone ugly
He's a moron and who cares what he thinks. SHUT UP AND GO MAKE A MOVIE!
sexist bastard. obama was in the senate for only 149 days before he decided he was fit to run for president. actors need to SHUT THE FUCK UP.
If you listen to him you are a bigger loser than he is. Who is to say a hockey mom cant rule the world…..mom's do it all everyday. It might just be what we need to make a huge change. I mean do you all really mean to tell me your scared of McCain dying and leaving Palin as the president and your not afraid of voting obama for president…….he looks like a puppet saying everything that everyone wants to hear let me tell you he is not going to do anything but mess the country up even more.
Ignorant America voted George W. Bush in and it worked for the Republicans. Now they are giving ignorant American another spin…and guess what? The dipshits are biting again.
If you put together a resume on Sarah Palina and a resume on Obama, who's winning? Who is more educated? Who has congressional experience?
Sorry, she has THE MOST GAWD AWFUL ANNOYING VOICE and her values have certainly made great progress with her children. She had a dear in the headlights speech and I am sorry…………….instead of coming out with an asskicking pitbull of a speech addressing healthcare, the economy, social security, and issues important to ME, the voter…………………..she came across as a little tiny shitzu yapping at Obama legs and calling him names. I am surprised she didn't announce to Obama that IT WAS ON LIKE DONKEY KONG.
Uggh. She IS NOT Hillary, that is for sure.
He definitely brought up some good points. Worth thinking about!
The real question is….Do we really want Obama having nuclear codes? That's probably the "change" he keeps talking about but never defines.
i have a new respect for matt damon now.
i USED to like matt damon. what he said is ridiculous…how much experience does Barak have?! i believe he was the governor of illinois. do you know what's in illinois? well, aside from chicago there is NOTHING there except corn field. and that is the person we would be trusting to actually be our president…not the guy who would be vice president. i agree that he needs to shut up - as does everyone in hollywood - because he is NOT an expert in all things political. i no longer like matt damon…and who the hell CARES that she is from a small town…people from small towns can do some pretty amazing things.
Yeah Matt! Yeah Perez! This is the vice presidency, not AMERICAN IDOL. Go Obama!
Re: jonathanonetreehill – WHAT DO YOU CALL A PATHETIC LOSER WHO ASKS THE QUESTION "who the Fuck is matt damon.and why do they let him talk.fat ass fool."
I WILL TELL YOU MATT DAMON IS A BIG CELEBRITY WHO IS SPEAKING THE CONCERNS OF MANY. A PROUD DEMOCRATIC VOTER. AND MAY I THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO SEE THAT YOU ARE MENTALLY CHALLENGED BY SAYING, "HOLLYWOOD SHUT THE FUCK UP.WHO ASK YOU GUYS ABOUT ANYTHING.IF ANYTHING YOU GUYS ARE KILLING THE PLANET."
HOLLYWOOD ACTUALLY HAS PROVIDED THE MOST AMOUNT OF MONEY IN HELPING IMPROVE THE ENVIRONMENT. BUT I WOULD NOT EXPECT AN UNIMPORTANT, SENILE, NOTHING AS YOURSELF TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FACTS AND LIES.
MATT DAMON ROCKS. HIS CONCERNS ECHO ALL OVER THE WORLD.
OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT. MAY WE VOTE ON THE ISSUES AND NOT ON RACE.
Wow….he basically doesnt know what he's talking about. And what bad Disney movie is ever the way he described it. What an ass.
Yes… if Palin & McCain make it into the White house, I'm moving outta the country. We don't need anymore Republicans (at least not now) in the White House. The most recent of all in the White House has put our economy in the shitter, & if Palin/McCain make it into office, then we're definitely screwed. I know so many people that are saying that they're scared if they do make it into office. I totally agree with Matt Damon basically… he did say it the best.
Matt Damon's hotness factor plummeted to me when I heard him open his mouth and speak his mind, rather than a well written script he rehearsed for.
Oh & the only reason why McCain picked Palin in the first place… was to get a women's vote, & because Alaska is an oil state. She believes that Alaska should become it's own COUNTRY?! WTF?! & she believes in Armageddon, & that if it comes Alaska will be a safe haven. That Alaska should be the place where all people should go. DELIRIOUS MUCH?! I think so. SHE EVEN SPEAKS IN TOUNGES IN HER CHURCH?! She believes in teaching creation in schools & not evolution… & in not teachin sex ed in school at all, which ibelieve would put our economy even more into the shitter then it already is. She's scary, the whole Republican party is scary especially for what they've done for our economy over the past 8 years… put it in the SHITTER.
Re: jonathanonetreehill – Re: jonathanonetreehill – Touche
puuuuhhhhlllleeeease!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He could cover NObama's qualifications in about 5 seconds - at lease Palin knows the rules to soccer and how to have a career and raise a family. Mr. Damon I adore your acting - stick to it - Tom Cruise started sharing his personal opinions with the world and when I realized what an ass he was I vowed never spend another dime on anything he would profit from. Signed a woman, with a career and a family that watches movies and will be voting McCain Palin - NOBAMA!
Last time I checked, he's also an American citizen WHO VOTES! Yet again, PROOF that RETARDS support McCain/Palin. If those two don't scare the shit out of you, you deserve what you get and I hope you'll be the first drafted when Grandpa McCain starts a war with Iran! IDIOTS!
Oh & there already is no separation between church in state with the Bush now… & if Palin were to get into office, then there DEFINITELY will not be a separation between church & state which is even scarier.
Re: Heidi –
I totally agree. People who vote McCain/Palin, do deserve what they're going to do to this country. We're gunna be at war with even more countries, & our economy is gunna be even worse then it already is. Not good…
GO OBAMA! Woo Hoo! Vote Obama/Biden '08!
Matt Damon has about as much cred speaking on the political situation as the guys that mops the bathrooms at 7/11
"THIS IS NOT AN "OPINION"
BARACK OBAMA'S EXPERIENCE:
*First black President of Harvard Law Review
*12 years as Constitutional Law professor
*8 years as State Senator for district of over 750,000 people
*4 years in Senate representing a state of 13 million
*Chairman of Senate's Health and Human Services committee
*Sponsored 136 bills,
*Served on Foreign Affairs, Environment & Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees"
-THE FRANK FACTOR
LOVE MATT DAMON
gotta love the man for speaking his mind!!!! agree or disagree, i respect his thoughts/opinions, and no one should give him crap about it, although he clearly will get shit about, but hey that comes with the territory!
i love how he compared her to a disney movie. this situation does resemble a disney movie.except for the killing of animals cold blooded, but then that would be edited out.lol

Matt Damon is a douche! I am more scared of Obama being in the White House
Re: abercorey – What the bloody hell does that have to do with anything?! Freaks, I tell you.
.
I do think he's being a little harsh though…
Re: lolli –
This is in response to the post you posted about Barack Obama's experience…
SEE PEOPLE?! He does have more experience then Palin & better experience at that =P
HEY HOLLYWOOD- NO ONE ASKED YOU. Go put your millions in tax shelters and shut the fuck up. You're uneducated anyways Matt Damon (good will hunting doesn't count). Why don't we ask Obama about his relationship with Terrorist Ayers, or his policy on late term abortions, or his support of kindergarten sex education, or de-nuclearizing the world.

SEE! He does have more experience then stupid Sarah Palin, so stop comparing there experience because obviously Obama beats Palin's experience.
Re: Tiffy25 –
All you are is ignorant. Your blind. Honestly, people who want & are gunna vote McCain/Palin… you're ignorant & naive. I'm sorry, but if that's what this country has come too… then we're really ignorant & naive. It's f^@&ing sad.
Re: melsteinberg –
If you're more scared of Obama being in the White House… then you're one of the naive & ignorant people that exist in this country/world.

Re: Princess Bitch – uneducated?! he went to harvard, you idiot! where did you go to school? please say Idaho State……please say it……then it will make me scared of Palin even more
Re: mama of 2 – as a mother, you should be ashamed…it's THAT crap that you wrote that will ensure your sons or daughters will one day have to fight in a damn world war…..some people shouldn't have children….
Re: AnnieJ – is THAT why Arnold and Regan, who were actors, got so far politically? you're a damn hypocrite……most people, especially most Republicans, have a short term memory and only bring up things when it suits them…..watch Jon Stewart's clip…….enough said.
it scares me how many young people are voting mccain palin/….wait, you guys probably aren't even registered…nevermind!
yes, kimmyw…jon stewart's clip says it all….watch u hypocritical republican FOOLS
Way to go Matt! He's absolutely right, more people need to talk about how absurd this is! It really is one huge political stunt right after the other. Palin would fricken suck at being president. Why would anyone in their right mind vote for that ticket? Its absurd! ~Obama 08'~
Re: TJ2727 – blooming? you just gave away the fact that you are not even a fucking american, therefore, whatever you write should be ignored
Re: PoisonBitchyIvy – SARAH PALIN IS NOT MAKING HISTORY, YOU FUCKING IDIOT! LOOK IT UP: THERE WERE TWO OTHER WOMEN IN THE 80s AND 90s THAT RAN FOR VP…..AND ONE WOMAN THAT RAN FOR PRESIDENT…..SHE'S NOT EVEN A FUCKING NOVELTY…….RESEARCH AND BE FUCKING EDUCATED!!!! THIS IS HISTORY…….AND IT'S BEEN WRITTEN ALREADY. (sorry everyone for all caps, but some people like this green-haired bitch obviously can't see anything unless it's in all caps)
This is so true. I'm really scared as well. Politically, I'm neither Republican or Democrat, but I can honestly say this year's Republican ticket is really weak. All McCain can talk about with excitement is his love of war, and Palin's intellect is still living in the dark ages.
If they win the election, mark my words, this country's going downhill… fast. But I guess a lot of other countries would love to see that, right? It will be our own undoing.
So what if Matt Damon is an actor, he has the right to state his political opinions. At least he has some and they're valid. He's wrote an Oscar winning movie and he's Bostonian [hellz yahh]!! The only reason why McCain is using Palin is because she is a [ahem] young republican woman. It's completely true that we know nothing about her. She doesn't want to answer any "sexist" questions. Well the fact she lets others keep bring up the sexist ordeal is because she's weak. Clinton stood up for all of that and wasn't afraid to let the country know her opinions and her plans for the future. She might be the next president, and I for sure wouldn't feel one bit safe with her as our leader. She can't even take care of her family.
