The latest celebrity to join in the group slamming of Sarah Palin is none other than Matt Damon as you can see in this Associated Press video which reeks of condescension. Damon, who has yet to attain public office condescendingly mocks Palin's credentials (emphasis mine):
"I think there is a really good chance that Sarah Palin could president. And I think that's a really scary thing because I don't know anything about her. I don't think in eight weeks I'm going to know anything about her. I know that she was a mayor of a really, really small town. And she's governor of Alaska for less than two years. I just don't understand... I think the pick was made for political purposes but in terms of governance it's a disaster. "
Apparently Damon must suffer from a severe reading disability because information about Palin is all over the Web. But does Damon really care about Palin's background? No, because his liberal mind is already made up. Damon then goes on to raise the "specter" of a Palin presidency: (video at link)

That's called "willful ignorance", Matt.
Oh, and Matt?

So, because some Hollywood actor is both stupid and ill-informed, Gov. Palin shouldn't have been chosen? What an ass he is, even I had spotted that Sarah Palin was one of the people in the running and I don't even have a vote. Damon should try stepping out of his bubble of ignorance occasionally.

A peanut farmer/governor from Georgia was a great president but a Moose hunter/governor from Alaska can't be vice president?

I like the Bourne movies too but they are the typical lib stereotype of the CIA always being the bad guys. Which I don't buy into. And when they condescendingly say Palin has only been a governor 2 years how long has the Obamessiah been a Senator? Oh wait, I forgot that he was a 'community organizer' before that. But it doesn't matter. Matt Damon is just another Hollywood tool that for some unfathomable reason thinks his celebrity as an actor makes his opinion on politics more valid than yours or mine. It doesn't and the press would know better if they weren't so intellectually lazy.

Reality Check:
No one knew a darn thing back in the early 1990's about that obscure governor of Arkansas either.

The mistake we are all making is that we expect intellectual honesty and consistency from people, even libs. We demand it from ourselves and assume we will get it from others. The problem is that everything, morality, truth, facts, are always fluid and amenable to the need or cause of the moment for the left. They just do not think the same way we do and we will always be caught by surprise if we expect them to.
