Stop Sarah Palin NOW!
Matt Damon is one of the less cringeworthy members of the US’s acting repertoire. He doesn’t make a huge fuss about his own personal life, doesn’t belong to some ridiculous cult, and paparazzi photographs don’t show him collapsing in Las Vegas at 4am giving fellatio to Jack Black. And it seems he’s a rational thinker too: from what he says in this video, he may well be an atheist.
Put simply, he tears into Sarah Palin in the video.
Why to Vote for Obama, Not McCain
So, it seems that Barack Obama has actually responded to scientists’ requests to clarify his policies on science. It provides fourteen more reasons to vote for the Democrats in November, if you’re in the USA (also taking into consideration that he is in favour of actually teaching science in science classes). Those of us who aren’t (myself included) are counting on you to ensure that the religious cretins of the Republican party don’t get back in the White House.
With this in mind, it transpires that Sarah Palin, McCain’s running mate for Vice President, doesn’t know her own country’s history.
11. Are you offended by the phrase “Under God in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?
SP: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.
She of course neglected to mention that the Pledge of Allegiance wasn’t written until the late 19th century, years after the Founding Fathers had kicked the bucket. The words “Under God” weren’t added until nineteen-fifty-fricking-four.
How can this woman be considered by anyone to be suitable for the White House?
