Matt Damon Calls Sarah Palin's Candidacy 'Absurd'
You can add Matt Damon to the list of Sarah Palin haters, alongside Lindsay Lohan and Sam Ronson. Damon lets it all out during a taped interview with Associated Press, stating that he believes it would be "absurd" if Palin became the Vice President of the Untied States: "She would be facing down Vladimir Putin and using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink. It's totally absurd."
His concerns are not based on the fact that she is a female, but that America hardly knows about her, besides the fact that she has been the governor of Alaska for the past two years and that she is a proud hockey mom who fought the "good ol' boys." (btw- who are these boys she's referring to??)
"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'll be President Palin... it's like a really bad Disney movie."
Damon goes on to say, "I think that pick [Sarah Palin] was for political purposes. But in terms of governance, it's a disaster."
Watch him rip her apart during his interview:
It's really refreshing to watch a celebrity interview that discusses important issues in current events. Not to mention, he sounds intelligent and seems to actually know a thing or two on the subject. He's using his celebrity to voice concerns that many Americans have with the the Republican nominees.
How do you feel about Matt after watching the interview?
