N/A —
I love it when celebrities think their political opinion is so astute that they must share it with us normal folk. I almost didn’t post this because I’d hate for someone to base their vote for President this year on what some blabbering celebrity thinks, but then I thought it might be funny for everyone to see Matt Damon on his high horse.
But before you watch this kids, remember to do your own research and make an informed decision before you pull that lever this November.

Is 'People' Playing Nice with Sarah Palin?
Pressed —
Us Weekly may have it in for Sarah Palin, but the Republican ticket seems to have found a friend it can trust in People.

Critics' Picks
Salon —
Sept. 13, 2008 | Critics Picks Sarah Palin on YouTube Sarah Palin feels like a channel that's on all the time. A channel we can't turn off, even though we know there's better programming somewhere on the dial. There she is on "ABC News With Charles Gibson." There she is on "The Daily Show" . The "Sarah Palin" search on YouTube turns up 16,500 videos (and climbing). Choice selections include Palin's controversial speech at an Alaskan Assembly of God church, in which she calls the Iraq war "God's plan," jokes about the Jesus fish tattoo her son got on his ankle, and tells the crowd, "You guys are all a ...
Melissa Lafsky: Sarah Palin and the Julia Allison School of Female Achievement
Huffington Post Entertainment Blog —
I'm hardly the only woman/human/advocate of sanity that's losing sleep over Sarah Palin. For the past week and a half, I've jerked awake every night between 3 and 4 AM, spitting with rage over the possibility that Alaska's biggest celebrity could hold one (or two! Cancer's a bitch) of the nation's highest offices.
Sure, there's her bubbling stewpot of right wing policies and her role as a distraction from the economy's free fall and global unrest. But as Salon's Rebecca Traister explains in her signature "God damn she's smart" style, a major reason we're all downing Ambien ...

The hatred from the celebrity and Hollywood left is beyond words. Why should we be surprised, celebrities are so far out of touch with main stream life and values.

Another quick note on the blurring of politics and pop culture, if I may -- starting with the Saturday Night Live sketch below: Back when Sarah Palin was first nominated for the vice-presidency, many people noted her uncanny resemblance to Tina Fey -- so it was perhaps inevitable that Fey would return to her old SNL stomping grounds for a cameo as Palin. And lo and behold, no sooner had the skit been aired than Palin's spokesperson Tracey Schmitt was telling reporters that Palin had actually dressed as Fey for Halloween once. Schmitt also ...

I am – Hercules!! We’ve seen senators Obama, McCain and Biden in something like 417 debates over the last two years, but now it’s time for the governor of Alaska to weigh in on the issues. Gwen Ifill, moderator of tonight's Joe Biden-Sarah Palin debate, is in such a tizzy she actually broke her ankle on Monday! Here’s a question Ifill may not pose.
