Day 531/-201: Tuesday, February 26, 2008: Matt Damning (written 9/16/08)

September 16th, 2008

As hot as I think Sarah Palin is (as noted by my previous Facebook status and new standup line: “I used to be against drilling in Alaska but that Sarah Palin makes me want to lay pipe.”), I completely agree with Matt Damon’s condemnation of her.

I’ve always liked Matt Damon - I’m not at all a star-struck person… I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of celebrity but rarely celebrities themselves… I simply can’t stand how people follow these guys all over the place. But for some reason, Damon just seems like the kind of guy you want to grab a beer with.

And if you start telling me how this video is just the Hollywood Elite raining down on ordinary people, I’m going to punch you in the bowels. Besides, that whole “grabbing a beer” thing is apparently the Republicans’ litmus test for high office.

McCain’s pick of her is completely reckless. Not only does it undermine his own Experience argument (which was a good one), it seriously places the United States in harm’s way. This is now a national security issue.

Damon’s reckoning of this to a Disney movie is pure gold - he really should consider doing standup.

    you know it’s sad when you go to your friends website just to feel like you’re talking to him. this has nothing to do with matt damon, just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you. And I’m fairly sure I’m the ONLY one that ever leaves comments from “you know who”. Although I might start using “whatsherface” because that’s just funnier.

    not funnier than carrots though.
