Greg Gutfeld: 'Someone Must Have Pumped Sand and Water Through Matt Damon’s Head'
As NewsBusters reported last week, Matt Damon is making an anti-fracking movie called "Promised Land."
On Fox News's The Five Monday, Greg Gutfeld took issue with this saying, "I think someone must have pumped sand and water through Damon’s head because he certainly exudes enough natural gas to power a small city" (video follows with transcript and absolutely no need for additional commentary):
GREG GUTFELD: So Matt Damon is making an anti-fracking movie. Yay! John Krasinksi will star, no doubt also an expert on this cruel practice that extracts natural gas. Boy, I hope he makes goofy faces like he does on “The Office.” Adorable.
But like every film these days it's just a remake. In the spirit of destroying an industry it harkens back to “The China Syndrome,” that shrill antinuke screed from the ’70s. If you think culture doesn't shape politics, remember that nuclear power is still recovering from that celebrity-driven smear. Which means you can blame Hollywood for our dependence on oil right now.
So why hate fracking? Isn't it just a horizontal windmill shattering rocks instead of birds? Well, the greenies hate it because it works. Yeah, a funny thing happened on the way to Solyndra: fracking put us toward a path towards energy independence making the green efforts look kind of silly.
And Matt knows we can't have that. Then America wouldn't be the bad guy anymore. This one fact alone would eliminate the only major villain in today's movies. True, with drilling there can be environmental side effects. But there are environmental side effects to everything, including film making. Research has shown that the film industry pollutes like mad thanks to the idling trucks, special effects and set construction. But that’s Hollywood, so never mind.
Anyway, I think someone must have pumped sand and water through Damon’s head because he certainly exudes enough natural gas to power a small city.

Hey Matt............lissen up!!! I've got news for you!! You're NOT 'green'!!! Go ahead and show up at the awards ceremonies in your hybird...........big deal!!! You're in HOLLYWOOD!!! One of the BIGGEST wasters of resources and energy and everything else that you purport to support!!! Plus, you guys in Hollywood NEVER get it right!!! And on top of that, you DON'T live in the real world!!!
So stop putting on your act - none of us are buying it!!! You wanna be an 'actor'??? OK...........go for it!! Shut your stupid piehole and 'act'!! You know LESS about whatever you flap your gums about than most of us 'folks' out here in the real world!!! Just shut the hell up and go read your lines - you're in friendly territory over there in Hollywood...................if you were out here, you'd be real uncomfortable, because people would be wary and mistrustful of you - with good reason. The sooner you realize thaty you're just an 'actor' (a 'bum's profession', according to one of your heroes - Marlon Brando), the sooner you'll stop taking yourself so seriously - and then you'll finally be on our level - because we don't take you seriously!!!

How is it that actors who repeat sentences written for them by other people somehow delude themselves into believing that people give a hoot what their opinions are on anything? All it does, it seems to me, is turn off their fans and potential movie ticket buyers.

Submitted by ForeverOnTheRight on Tue, 04/10/2012 - 11:05am.
It is all the adulation they get from their fans, it goes to their already narcissistic egos. You have to be more than talented in Hollywood to survive and rise to the top, narcissism is what gets them there. But narcissism also blinds them to the fact that they don't know everything and causes them to think that what they say is true and important. Look at Obama for a prime example, a inexperienced junior senator thinks he knows how to be president. Thanks to the media that lied to us enough people voted for the armature.
Water in CA
Submitted by forest on Tue, 04/10/2012 - 7:54am.
Since you mentioned the water, doesn't LA use up the entire Owens River? Then they have to transport the water via aqueduct over hundreds of miles losing much of it through evaporation and leaks?
People living in the cities of CA are some very "high impact" folks. They should consider shutting up about the "environment" until they are willing to live closer to some fresh water.

Submitted by HelenS on Tue, 04/10/2012 - 8:17am.
I really hate finding out how really ignorant these "stars" are because as long as they're just acting, I can enjoy their movies - like the Bourne movies: excellent entertainment! Same with "Goodwill Hunting"
But as soon as they start preaching, I cross them off my list because all I can see is ignorance.
I will NOT be watching this new movie and suspect that it will be another flop anyway.

Hay, Matt, you claim that fracking poisons ground water, but I have a question for you: have you ever drank "uncontaminated" ground water that hasn't been through a filter? The odds are: you haven't! ALL groundwater contains contaminates, just from sitting in the ground! Drill a well anywhere in America and the odds are that, if you find water at all, it'll contain things such as lead, mercury, hydrocarbons, arsenic, the works. That's the way nature works.
Want to save people from ground water contamination? Fine, buy them a Britta Filter, you putz! Don't try to stop people from acquiring an additional energy source. That's more deadly than any ground water you're likely to pump from around that well, for we NEED that energy for our very survival.
Get this through that thick, shaven head of yours; things like cultivation REQUIRES external energy, and the massive cultivation needed to support, to feed, over 350 MILLION people needs MASSIVE amounts of of external energy. Just where are we supposed to get that energy of you continue denying us access to it? Are YOU going to strap yourselves to a plow and turn those tons of earth every year that is absolutely required in even small-scale farming? No? Didn't think so!
So, Matt, the next time you're enjoying that wine from Nappa Vally, eating your bree and crackers, ask yourselves this: where did the energy come from to cultivate those foods you enjoy so much? We know that it didn't come from solar, and it didn't come from wind, for solar energy and wind energy isn't POWERFUL enough to plow the earth (there's no such thing as a solar powered tractor), let alone harvest, process, and transport the produce of agriculture, so where do you suppose it came from? It came from natural gas. It came from Coal. It came from Nuclear. It came from hydro-electrical. It came from all the sources you, yourself, are trying to destroy. Doesn't that make you feel the fool? It should. For if you are successful, you'll starve yourself, and the rest of us, into oblivion!

Here is another Hollywood example of what counselors call a messianic complex. Matt Damon loves himself so much he will not only play to the audience when on stage. He has to be on stage all the time.
Damon is full of himself just like his protégé Howard Zinn the communist whose writings are filled with misleading statements.
The Left not only tells lies it lives a lie. Damon should know that he is not the messiah.

Damon was an English major in college....but dropped out before graduation. That makes him qualified to comment on hydro fracking?
He needs to stick to acting.
