I suggest CNN give that fact about cutting special needs funding to Hillary Rosen (one of their expert panel members).  She specifically used that "fact" as a dig at Sarah Palin on Larry King the other night.  Will she retract it?  We'll see.

I think Matt was really asking the question if dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago?

 He's almost certain they weren't any because Christopher Columbus at that time didn't report seeing any dinosaurs when he crossed the Delaware.

Dowd is using the made up quote because she is a partisan hack that sees the danger Sarah Palin poses to liberalism.  Not that repeating a known fabricated lie is defensible, but I at least know where she is coming from. 

Matt Damon I believe is just stupid.  I think he heard this and not being capable of any critical questioning or research on his own part is merely repeating what someone else said.  Kind of like memorizing a script.  He comes across as uneducated in the interview, a far cry from some of the characters he plays so well in the movies.

It is so frustrating that all these lies, distortions and half-truths get out there from the mouths of the blabbering classes, but there is no way to directly enlighten them to the truth, no way to force an apology or retraction. There is not even any way to post a comment to Dowd's column, and Damon is so insulated by his sycophants and surrounded by nothing by *sskissers that you could never get through to him to ask him if he knew this was a fake quote.

Yet in our celeb-driven society, millions of people will hang on their every word. I still see on the leftwing blogosphere things that have been totally debunked decades ago, from both the posters and the commenters.  

Why can't they just be honest about it, that they are following their feelings, not their heads, or reason or facts or anything else that makes sense to normal, honorable people?

I did see a comment posted recently by a leftard, something to the effect that it wouldn't make any difference to him if Obama and Farrakhan were on tape swapping spit at the Communist Party convention, he would vote for him anyway to make sure we don't get four more years of McBusHitler.

He at least showed some courage in his convictions, but it also made clear why the rest of these nuts don't do the same.

Most of them have been trained just to parrot lines that others have written for them. Many cannot seem to seperate their profession from their personal lives and just go on parroting almost anything they hear.

Come to think of it, that describes a large % of politicians too.

The day that "politician" became a career choice is the day we started losing the Republic. Let's get it back! Alan Keyes '08.

I have it on good authority that Sarah Palin announced in a recent interview that, along with the nuclear launch codes, she’ll also control the targeting coordinates and has declared Hollywood as NWB, the Nuclear Whipping Boy.

Obama: My job is above my pay grade

"well i've got a little news for YOU, hillary. your husband tried to grab my (insert body part) just before the debate ... you may want to follow the ambulance to the hospital"

hillary can't browbeat bill, why should anyone "fear" her in a debate ... if hillary was THAT good, she'd be running for president ... she lost to a noob w/ no experience and was ignored as a vp candidate ... sorry modo, you love for The Pantsuit is over-rated ... as is your opinion.

I saw this video two days ago on youtube and thought I would make a comment on it regarding the whole inexperience issue Damon brought up.  I simply said she had two years executive experience comparing that to Obama's two years legislative experience and since it was executive experience, it simply gives her a better understanding of what it takes to be VP and potentially POTUS.

Here is the sole response to my comment (sorry for the language):

stfu. sarah is a dick shit whore. and so are you 

How can you argue against that one? 

MSM= goosestep, goosestep, goosestep.

Obama to MSM Peanut Gallery: "Hey kids! What time is it?"

MSM Peanut Gallery: "It's Barack Obama time!!! YEAHHHHHH!!"

The major media report only half the news. Why are they surprised they have only half the potential audience?

A few comments about the fabulously fabulous Matt Damon (and his orchestra!)

1)  He stresses the fact that Sarah was the mayor of a "really, really small town".  

This is a particularly brilliant point in light of the fact that Barrack is trying to recast himself as someone who is not a Harvard snob who looks down on small town people.  Way to go, Matt!  Keep those insights coming!

2) He said, "I think the pick was made for political purposes."

Gee, yuh think?  Is this Good Will hunting for a cogent thought?  And does this mean that Barrack's purposes for picking Mojo Jojo were not political (i.e. not professional)?   Is our pal Matt tossing out an Italian suppository here?  Is this an inuendo of some sort?  Hmmm.  He played a super genius in a movie once so we must study his words carefully.

3)  When he draws a connection between nuclear codes and dinasaurs he says this:  "That's an important...I wanna know that.  I really do."

Yep.  I can picture it now.  Putin and Palen are at Camp David chatting over a couple of glasses of vodka when ol' Vlad tosses out an innocent little aside about Charles Darwin and the origins of man.  He asserts that humans evolved long after the dinosaurs died out.  After taking a tense drag on her stogie and adjusting the straps on her State Championship sports bra, Sarah clears her throat and says through clenched teeth,  "Wait just a second now..."  Predictably, one thing leads to another.  Tempers flair.  Barbed insults are exchanged and the next thing we know, Sarah's digging through her "Beware of Hockey Mom!" handbag and screaming, "Where the hell are my damned nuclear codes!?"   Wow, Matt!  I've learned the error of my ways!  That evil fear-mongerer Bush tricked us into fearing mass-murdering Islamo-fascists.  But thanks to you, we can now be properly mongered into fearing.....Pentacostal Christians!  (Dear God!  I just pooped my pants!)

4)  Wonder Matt and his amazing brain (that performs tricks and fetches sticks) plowed further into his rarefied land of utter brilliance by suggesting that Sarah's apparent unwillingness to toe the Darwinist line might compel her to violate our 1st Amendment rights.  He says, "I wanna know...if she banned books or tried to ban books.  I mean, tha...tha...y'know.  We can't...we can't have that."

Being an expert on what we can and can't have, I suppose Matt would not take kindly to a scientist who writes a book that calls into question the accuracy of our current carbon dating methods.  I suppose if that book were to invalidate all theoretical prehistoric timelines, then our old buddy Matt would be ready to step in and demand that this book be banned, because--as he so perceptively observed-- "We can't have that." 

I love this guy, Matt Damon.  I want him talking at every moment of every day.  And I want him attached to Barrack Obama like a strap-on...assuming, of course, that Mojo Jojo doesn't get his panties in a wad. 

How stupid are the people applauding this line? The governor of a state rich in fossil fuel—who has chaired the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, and whose husband has worked as an oil-field production operator—has no inkling of its formation? Damon knows very little about Sarah Palin, indeed.
