I love it when celebrities think their political opinion is so astute that they must share it with us normal folk. I almost didn’t post this because I’d hate for someone to base their vote for President this year on what some blabbering celebrity thinks, but then I thought it might be funny for everyone to see Matt Damon on his high horse.
But before you watch this kids, remember to do your own research and make an informed decision before you pull that lever this November.
“I think there’s a really good chance Sarah Palin could become president, and I think that’s a really scary thing… I don’t know anything about her and in eight weeks, I don’t think I’m going to know anything about her. I know that she was a mayor of a really, really small town and she’s the governor for Alaska for less than two years. I just don’t understand. 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 [John] 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 Vladimir Putin (of Russia)… It’s totally absurd… it’s a really terrifying possibility.”
Africa is quickly becoming the place to be and be seen. All the A-List mom’s are adopting babies from there, Brad and Angie are constantly dragging their kids all over the continent and now Matt Damon has started his own charity there. Matt was in Africa to film a documentary titled “Running the Sahara” and was shocked at the condition of the people’s water supply. So he created a charity to accompany their filmmaking expedition in Africa, which gets under way this month. H2OAfrica aims to raise awareness about Africa’s water needs and support clean-water programs.
