It’s like a really bad Disney movie. The hockey mom from Alaska…is the Vice President. She’s facing down Vladmir Putin using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink. It’s absurd.” Matt Damon 9/10/08
If Sarah Palin wasn’t so freakishly scary, I might have to agree with Matt Damon and this Sarah Palin Disney trailer might be a little more amusing (ok, I admit…it’s hilarious). But seriously, what was McCain high on when choosing her as the Vice Presidential candidate? This is a woman who does not believe in evolution. This is a woman who would (and did) sue the government for saying that polar bears are endangered because it interfered with oil drilling in Alaska. This is a woman who claimed foreign relations experience because “our next door neighbors are foreign countries that are in the state that I am executive of.”
Come again?
That reminds me, if you haven’t seen Palin’s interview with Katie Couric, you must watch it now. I agree with Ron Chusid when he says, “She is a new face, but she seems rather empty in the ideas department. If you really want a new face but from someone who has actual ideas and who understands the ideas Palin gives a good reason to vote for Barack Obama.”
If you aren’t fully convinced in the stupidity of our possible next Vice President, who’s ability to become our next President could rely on the continued pulse of a 72-year old man who refuses to release his full medical records, then I am confident when I say there is no hope for you. And I certainly hope Disney isn’t taking any pointers from Matt Damon…unless they are heading down the road of producing horror films.
