Jason Bourne Is Very Afraid Of A Disney Film

The world was introduced to Alaska Governor Sarah Palin less than 30 days ago and since her formal introduction into the realm of National politics there has been a relentless pursuit of attacks against her. Many are from the liberal staple of critics, but then there are others who in my own estimation would be wise to keep quiet. It is no secret that celebrities generally fall on the left side of the political scale, and I suppose they are compelled to voice their expert voice of reason. Case in point, Matt Damon in a recent interview noted he was "troubled" by Gov. Palin citing her lack of experience and he compared her nomination as vice president to that of a bad Disney film. Mr. Damon has been awarded an Academy Award, but does that make him qualified to be a commentator on the national political stage? No, but being a citizen does. With that said, Mr. Damon, as does the rest of the Hollywood elite, understands that although they may just wish to be a average citizen their statements carry considerable weight with the ill informed public. "If Jason Bourne is afraid then I should be as well". (For those ill informed citizens who do not frequent the cinema, Jason Bourne is a character made famous by the actor Matt Damon) Celebrity status under any particular genre seemingly makes artists, athletes and entertainers instant experts on any subject from foreign policy to local political options. Opinions vary, I am one who prides my opinions based on ipso facto information. Although I have been wrong before, I can admit my faulty doctrinal beliefs when the occasion arises. I don't want to seem an overtly harsh critic of Mr. Damon, but I could only hope that those Hollywood elites understand that while they possess the public attention in tabloids and in their vein of entertainment, they should be careful not to ostracize the other part of the public who do not harbor their ideology.
