Matt Damon on Sarah Palin


Great clip of Matt Damon talking about Sarah Palin and her qualifications as president. I don't think he's trying to be funny, and he does make a serious point, but I had to laugh at some of his lines: "It's like a really bad Disney movie...she's gonna be president and facing down Vladimir Putin and using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink" and "I really need to know if she thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. I need to know that, I really do, because she's gonna have the nuclear codes."

Also, I appreciate him bringing up book-banning. It appears she never actually went through with it, but she did ask the Wasilla librarian how one might go about it. When the librarian disagreed, according to some reports, Palin fired her.

Sound familiar to anyone?
