Matt Damon suckered by nutroots smear of Palin? Update: Dowd suckered too?

Impossible to say for sure but Ace makes a compelling case. Skip ahead to the last quarter of the video and you’ll find him exercised by the possibility that she thinks dinosaurs roamed the land 4,000 years ago:

Could a Harvard grad be so stupid as to have read this and taken it at face value?

On oil exploration and drilling in the ANWR:
God made dinosaurs 4,000 years ago as ultimately flawed creatures, lizards of Satan really, so when they died and became petroleum products we, made in his perfect image, could use them in our pickup trucks, snow machines and fishing boats.

That comes from this very broad lefty parody purporting to be quotations culled from the Anchorage Daily News. Follow the link to see just how broad. Sample quote: “There is nothing natural about a dorky moose!” There are, apparently, more than a few people who bought into it or else this page at WikiAnswers wouldn’t exist. Whether Damon is one of them or just the victim of the endless game of Telephone the left is playing with her, wherein “progressive” jokes about Alaska’s trailer trash governor metastasize into rumors of changeling babies that end up on dKos and CNN, is known only to him. Exit question: Given her devotion and the fact that many Americans buy into this general timeline, is it wise to get too outrageously outraged here?

While you meditate on that, enjoy this special bonus clip from another deep-thinkin’ celebrity.

Update: Seixon e-mails to point out another appearance of the 4,000-years smear — in Maureen Dowd’s last column.

CLINTON: I’ve got a little news flash for you, Annie Oakley. Dinosaurs disappeared a lot longer than 4,000 years ago. I admit you’ve had a profound influence on America, and I’m not just talking about all the women wearing up-dos and rimless titanium $375 Kazuo Kawasaki designer frames.

Anyone want to do a little Google sleuthing and see if they can track down which highly respected left-wing media source is pushing this? My money’s on dKos.

Ha… dinosaurs may still be here. No, that’s not a joke.

Little known fact about Matt Damon:

He’s spent millions having reproductions of everything he wants made at 5/6 scale and furnishes his homes with them so he can feel like a normal sized male.

MikeZero on September 11, 2008 at 6:52 PM

Yes, which isn’t very good math. He should’ve said 6,000 years ago (4000BC).

Tzetzes on September 11, 2008 at 6:53 PM

More good news: Six A-bombs worth of Uranium goes “missing” in Iran.

Nuclear experts responsible for monitoring Iran’s nuclear programme have discovered that enough enriched uranium, which if processed to weapons grade level could be used to make up to six atom bombs, has disappeared from the main production facility at Isfahan.

Aristotle on September 11, 2008 at 6:53 PM

Dinosaurs lived along with man………So What???

maynila on September 11, 2008 at 6:55 PM

There is a reason Damon was a featured parody in Air America.

Matt Damon’s a fine actor, but he’s retarded (as is most of the Hollywood elite) when it comes to political issues.

For him to call out Palin, w/o looking at his own candidate’s lack of experience, is ridiculous.

nickj116 on September 11, 2008 at 7:05 PM

Love the pic! I can just see him saying, “Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhh! Maaaaaatt Daaaaamon. MATT DAMON! MATT DAMON! MATT DAMON! MATT DAMON!”

What a tool. Wait, at least a tool is useful, unlike Doofus Damon. Way to propagate an idiotic email, dumbass!

Matt Damon reads cue cards in front of a camera for a living. ‘Nuff said.

The great thing about being a gay man is that I can objectively look at Pam Hepatitis Anderson, her fat, fake lips and her ridiculously distorted boobs and call her for what she is — a stupid slut.

Matt Damon! (Team America Version)

Weebork on September 11, 2008 at 7:05 PM

“I don’t think in 8 weeks I’m going to know anything about her”

That’s about how long it would take Matt Damon to read a HotAir post with bullet points about Sarah Palin (or am I giving him too much credit?)

thirteen28 on September 11, 2008 at 7:06 PM

Could a Harvard grad be so stupid as to have read this and taken it at face value?

I don’t think Damon actually graduated. So, like most celebrities, he has nothing but a high school education (many of them don’t even have that) and delusions of grandeur.

Pamela Anderson: “she can suck it”……coming from somebody who has and had it paraded all over the internet….right….like asking a meth-head his thoughts on a bear market, who cares…

Gary Johnston: We’re dicks! We’re reckless, arrogant, stupid dicks. And the Film Actors Guild are pussies. And Kim Jong Il is an asshole. Pussies don’t like dicks, because pussies get fucked by dicks. But dicks also fuck assholes: assholes that just want to shit on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with assholes their way. But the only thing that can fuck an asshole is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is: they fuck too much or fuck when it isn’t appropriate – and it takes a pussy to show them that. But sometimes, pussies can be so full of shit that they become assholes themselves… because pussies are an inch and half away from ass holes. I don’t know much about this crazy, crazy world, but I do know this: If you don’t let us fuck this asshole, we’re going to have our dicks and pussies all covered in shit!

bryan2369 on September 11, 2008 at 7:11 PM

Wooly Mammoth BONES found, not fossils. Since they are not fossilized that means they are young.

Maxx on September 11, 2008 at 7:11 PM

Well there were really big mammoths and saber toothed tigers, but no dinosaurs. I think the drive by media is so hysterical that they don’t know fact from fiction anymore. And then you get this Damon twit … I probably ought to go get another drink about now.

I reckon Matt never had a chance to watch Jurasic Park. Hell, we can almost smell back to 2000BC.

I bet the folks slummin’ it in Mesopotamia were real happy when the T-Rexs stopped stomping around in the Hanging Gardens (the original bull in the china shop).

Hmmm…now that I think about it, I wonder if the ancient Chinese secret of really white laundry had something to do with Megalodon.

Matt, what do you think? Really. I’m interested.

Maxx on September 11, 2008 at 7:15 PM

MATT, YOU THE MAN! You’re a bit early but good job anyway. You’re new to this and probably excited so I can understand you jumping the gun. Just so you understand, when the vast-rightwing-conspiracy plans an October surprise it’s supposed to be in — well — October. But don’t fret, the early bird gets the worm, as they say. Anyway,Counter-intuitive propaganda tends to have a longer shelf-life than does the direct approach. By my last count 6 teenage girls are now paying attention and are firmly in the Obama camp, 6 wannabe Uber-spy teenage boys are also now Obamaites. This is for those who can only see the obvious. The brilliance of your move is that there are now at least 30,000 new McCain supporters who have reacted counter to your subtly counter-intuitive approach. Once this goes viral can you just imagine the number of people you will drive into the McCain camp. WAY TO GO! YOU THE MAN!

I mean, really, I need to know if he really thinks he can kill 8 ninjas with his bare hands. Really, I need to know this before I see another Matt Damon movie. I want to know that, I really do. It’s scary that this guy could win an Academy Award. It’s absurd. It’s totally absurd, it’s a really terrifying possibility. We can’t have that.

Eh, what do you expect. Dowd was suckered in by Gloria Steinam and Betty Friedan decades ago and ended up an old spinster because of it. And she still thinks it’s all men’s fault.

One day you’ll all look at the world us actors created and say, “Wow, good going, fag. You really made the world a better place, didntcha, fag?”

Or, is it possible that you believe mummified remains indicate a short period of time, therefore this video provides proof of your belief?

BobMbx on September 11, 2008 at 7:31 PM

Someone’s link above this is this US Weekly Link

Wherein Damon is quoted saying:

“For a lot of actors, our biggest fear is that we’re going to start talking about things we don’t fully understand and sound like idiots,” he said. “In the long run, I’ll do much more good if, when I open my mouth, I have something worth saying.”

If this is a true quote, then his fears have been realized

I’ll pass on that one, ’cause now adays, a Ben Affleck screed comes with a side of Jennifer “Airhead” Garner.

I can already see it now:

Affleck: “This is insane! Mortifying! Wait, what else did Matty say? Terrifying!”

Garner: ***sniffles*** “Sometimes…when I think about Sarah Palin…I cry.” ***sniffles***

Affleck: “Do you hear THAT, Mr. O’Rielly!?! HUH!?! The woman makes my wife CRY!!! You heartless bastards!”

Kevin Smith: “I totally agree with everything Matt and Ben said. They’re the smartest people I know. I mean, like the other day, when I was pondering my dad trying to wrangle a three-way with my mom and my godmother, I was like “Holy crap! If Ben and Matt were around back then, maybe the old man would have had a shot!” and it was like, score!”

Affleck: “Ya hear that Rush!?! I could’ve helped Kev’s dad land a three-way!!!”

Garner: ***sniffles*** “You know…sometimes…I think about Kevin’s dad…never getting that three-way…and…I cry!”***sniffles***

Not so much this video, no age is given but the T-Rex video with the soft tissue makes it pretty clear that Dinos are not from millions of years ago. The other video with the BONES of Wooly Mammoths that are NOT fossils also clearly indicates, thousands of years maybe, but certainly NOT millions of years.

Maxx on September 11, 2008 at 7:44 PM

The problem for guys like Damon (and Leftards in general) is that they have absolutely no clue about what conservatives really believe or how they behave. This forces them to rely solely on the most cartoonish of stereotypes to anticipate conservative reactions, or to determine the veracity of information describing them. If I was certain that “conservative” meant people like Jethro Bodine or Elly Mae Clampett, I’d have no problem believing that Sarah Palin speaks in tongues and thinks dinosaurs became extinct because Noah wouldn’t let them on the ark.

Conservatives generally have a much more objective understanding of Lefties (dumb as we are). American Thinker had an excellent and insightful analysis on this phenomenon today. It’s well worth the read.

rplat on September 11, 2008 at 7:54 PM

The guy who wrote that about the dinosaurs was on CNN of all places saying it was a joke. He saw the bizarre stories about Palin and so he set up his version of a “Mad” magazine site and just wrote the craziest things he could think of and the next thing he know people were emailing him saying have you heard this about Palin. He took it down. He said that to him it was obviously just a spoof, but people took it and ran. The left is desperate to the Nth degree about Sarah Palin.

Well, when you lose your health insurance and get sick, or you or someone you love loses their battle to a disease that could have been cured via stem cell research, come back and tell me how proud you are to have cast your vote for a fundie dingbat like this.

When your kids start insisting to you that little children played with dinosaurs 4000 years ago, and they know it’s true because their public school teacher told them, come back and tell us how you like that.

When your job gets shipped over to China or Malaysia, and there are no other jobs you’re trained to do nearby, fill us all in on how McSame/Palin fit the bill for you.

Please. I’m begging you to.

I posted this on Confederate Yankee 3 days ago:

The joke quotes at this site:

http://unbearablebobness.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/08/governor-sarah-palin-quotes.html

were posted as real here:

http://boards.msn.com/MSNBCboards/thread.aspx?threadid=765589&boardsparam=Page%3d5

and apparently they’re being emailed around. Just one more thing to be aware of.
Posted by juliesa at September 8, 2008 05:08 PM

I became aware of this because idiot playwright Eve Ensler on HuffPo had some “information” in her column that didn’t sound quite right. It was something about Palin shooting 40 caribou at a time.

I googled around and found that MSNBC forum post, and one of the commenters there had a link to the original joke site.

Apparently the quotes were being emailed around, and the MSNBC post may have been the impetus for that. Because MSNBC is such a trusted source (rolling eyes).

BTW, if you ever need solid, intelligent, insightful political analysis, I suggest you ask Matt Damon.

If that doesn’t work, you can try the kid bagging groceries at the local grocery store.

This is a better lonk, though, because in my CY comment, I linked page 5 of the MSNBC thread.

Clearly Matt was not vetted.

Does anyone this Matt Damon or Maureen Dowd care whether the “facts” give to them are accurate?
