The Bourne Hysteria

I think there's a really good chance Sarah Palin could become president, and I think that's a really scary thing...
Matt Damon (he's on the list!) joins hysterical Hollywood harridans Annette Bening, Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie O'Donnell in a case of the vapors.

Notice how astute dunder-head sounds without a script. If HE were in line to be President, I'd be more than alarmed. Palin has more guts and brains than Damon anyway. But since he's not running for office, it's nice to hear the little socialist spout off on cue, and I can smell his fear from where I am. Say, Matt Damon, you ever put on a uniform? How about your love object, Hussein? No? Guess you're both just a couple of talkative yellow bellies.

I didn't see anything in this article or attached video relating to firearms or civil rights. If anything I would tend to say he's more objecting to the fascist aspect of a Palin presidency (which I believe both Mr. Codrea and Western Rifles Shooters Association, respected gun-rights advocates, have brought up). What did he say that earns him an NRA blacklist? Or is the NRA now the National Republican Association?

I'd be on the NRA's blacklist if I were noticeable, but for the opposite reason.

Another Hollywood freak who's only claim to fame is to make believe on a prop.
So now Matt is an idiot and liberal piece of shit like the rest of the jerks in that shithole town.

AP says Palin's hometown church is trying to "cure" homosexuals through the power of Jesus. True or false?
That's HER Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Not goin to play well in the big cities.
Both sides smell strongly of fascism. It's just a matter of labels.
And we should care what Damon says why, exactly?
In the movie "Outrageous Fortune," Bette Midler's character is a loose woman (surprise) who decides to one-up Shelley Long's squeaky-clean life-long-trained actress.
"Actors are just bullsh--ers who get paid."

That's some list. Do we have ANY friends?
I see most of my favorite actresses are on there. Can you believe the bovine Drew Barrymore is the current Cover Girl? I remember in "Ever After," she played the "real" Cinderella. Sold into slavery by the wicked stepmother, she grabs the buyer's rapier and dagger and exclaims "My father was an excellent swordsman, sir. He taught me well. If you try to touch me, I shall slit you from navel to nose."
Life could be like that. Still can.
Paul Greenberg says in his column on 9/11: "The ahistorical [those who do not study it] think of peace as the normal state of man, rather than a prize won for a precious time by war... We forget we can be awakened from our happy dream at any moment."
Denial can be useful in dealing with INDIVIDUAL traumas and stresses. It's no good for an entire society, though. The Hammerman on the subway: would he have tried if the victim were awake, alert and openly carrying a rather large pistol?

Oh, I forgot to mention. I haven't gone to the movies since the first "Pirates of the Caribbean." And that was just for the grandkids.
Don't donate to people who hate. Probably the only gun owners they've ever knowingly met are their bodyguards. Employees. That's the way they think it should be.

Ellen DeGeneres?
So much for mutual tolerance.

Goes double for Oprah "The Color Purple" Winfrey.

Nezumi: NRA Blacklist is an anti website. They take names of people listed by NRA as anti-gun individuals and call it a blacklist. What Damon did in specific is sign HCI's open letter calling for gun bans also signed by a whole slew of celebrities that I have written about many times in the past.

actors are paid to pretend, get it? They become famous and wealthy based on how well they pretend. Pretense replaces humanity, most only pretend to be people. The usual actor has become so far removed from personhood that he only pretends to be a person. Then he is fed lines to read and he believes them because he has lost himself in fantasy.

I don't care if Matt Damon is an anti or a pro. Because, you see, in any real encounter he will only pretend, when actual deeds are needed. He is not an asset or a liablility in and of himself. The danger lies in how many heads full of crap he can influence to vote against their rights as humans.

And in the end, when it counts they will be no real threat either, only collateral damage.
