Public School Advocate Matt Damon Enrolls Kids in Private School
breitbart.com ^ | 8/5/13 | John Nolte

Posted on 08/05/2013 1:58:52 PM PDT by ColdOne

In an interview with the Guardian published Saturday, Damon revealed that he had just moved to Los Angeles from New York, but that he didn't "have a choice" when it came to putting his four daughters into private schools. The multi-millionaire did say that it was "a major moral dilemma" and then made the bizarre excuse that the public schools aren't "progressive" enough.

This would probably mark the first time anyone has ever complained that America's public schools, especially in Los Angeles, aren't left-wing enough.

Libs should preach what they practice.
Ok, not in all cases.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE!

Hypocrite Matt Damon makes non-Science movies about fracking and is STILL trying to convince people that the Gorebull Warming hoax is real.

Bet he drives a car.
Bet he uses natural gas when he's cold.
Bet he flies in a non-solar power plane.

So he chose to put his kids in private schools and then says he didn't have a choice. Your money gave you that choice, asshat. Which most of us don't have.

So, Matt Damon is as much a LIAR as his American Idol, Barry Sotero. What’s so bizzare about that?

Ah, Hollywood! Don’t you just love the smell of hypocrisy in the morning? Smells like defeat.

there are few things I despise more than people who say they don’t have a choice.

True, there generally is always a choice, most times several of them.

When you say, "I don't have a choice" it means that what you chose was the least inconvenient for you.

Exactly. In some situations, all available choices may be poor, but there are still choices. It's only honest to say, "I chose X." If you like, you can explain it, justify it, or say, "And it was a mistake!"

I hope his new movie tanks. No vouchers for inner city kids but pricy private school for his spawn.

In the sense that the reality of parenthood is that you are not going to lift your little finger to give anyone a better chance than your own child gets, he had “no choice.” Hypocritical? Of course. It’s what “liberals” are, and who they are.

Damon is a close racist. His kids would be exposed to low income black culture if they attended public school.
