After his parents divorced, (his father a stockbroker) Damon and his brother moved with their mother back to Cambridge, where they lived in a six-family communal house.
Damon appeared on Hardball with Chris Matthews in December 2006 and, while discussing the ongoing war in Iraq, he stated: “It seems like we have a fighting class in our country that’s comprised of people who have to go for financial reasons... I don’t think that that is fair. If you’re gonna send people to war... then that needs to be shared by everybody, you know, and if the president has daughters who are of age then maybe they should go too.”
The *real* reason probably is he wants his kids to remain heterosexual. He probably wants grandbabies.
