1. Matt's a hero. He could be in Bora Bora lounging, yet there he is, fighting for the middle class.

2. just imagine if one day all parents have to pay for their kid's education
on top of the taxes they already pay for public education. Is this where we are headed... only parents with money get to send their kids to schools, while those with money are forced to pay more for the same(maybe worse) education?

3. Very well said...
Anderson Cooper has a nice piece on CNN for Damon:

If you liked his speech at SOS you'll enjoy this one too.

4. You Know...
this video would have had more of an impact,

if the dam people didn't applaud and cheer after every darn sentence.
