I just lost to someone using the damiano defense, I played out the lines presented and one the rook, but from there, I found no way to defend or retreat my queen, and it was quickly lost. I checked out his games, and found he uses this defense consistently, and makes good use of it, so perhaps it isn't that flawed after all.
Thank you MatoJelic for this simple explanation.

in-fact taking the rook right away will actually be a mistake and white will inevetably lose his queen. Bishop to c4 is the best move at this point.
