8. To defend a pop star
you drag Democrats into the conversation and bash them.

Funny, in a sad and pathetic way.

Why stop at Clark and Clinton? Let it all out. You've probably got a whole list of Democrats you love trashing.

All in the name of a pop star.

9. so pop stars should be held to higher standards than political leaders?
Edited on Sat Feb-04-06 12:27 AM by Adenoid_Hynkel
interesting approach.

and yes, I do hate Clinton and Clark. One's a corporate whore. The other's a militarist, despite his inexplicable popularity on this site

11. There ya go.
Don't hold back. Come on, let's hear more. Slam more Democrats to uphold the honor of a singer who peaked creatively in the early '90s.

And signing an agreement with a corporation to sell U2-themed mp3 players...that's not whoring yourself out to a corporation or anything.

Let's hear more. Clinton, Clark--who else?

:popcorn:

12. but you can't dispute the charges on bill wes?
i don't do it to 'uphold anyone's honor'
Clinton is an ass. I say it often.
But as far as u2 is concerned, it's called pointing out double standards.

15. No, it's called 'bizarre change of topic'
And I don't want to interrupt your bashing of Democrats, something which you evidently enjoy.

So come on, what other Dems do you want to hate on?

7. And called that racist dinosaur Helms his friend.
Sorry if anyone doesn't like it, but I don't care for sanctimonious, self-aggrandizing people.

I'd sooner shake hands with the Devil than I would bushyboy or Helms. We all have to have some standards, after all.

PS: You're in the White House! Tuck your fucking shirt in, would you?

10. Bono is trying to get people to help Africia.
If he has to hold his nose to make it happen, he will. Attend a U2 concert and it's very clear how they feel.

13. I don't give a fuck about his political work.
His music sucks, his band is overrated and warmed-over shit, and that's all that matters to me.

14. I agree. And he takes tough stands on highly controvertial subjects, like
...war and starvation.

So all those pro-starvation and pro-war folks get up in an uproar whenever he opens his mouth.

He's the next Salman Rushdie, I tells ya.
