And Jag, i watched MTP and i thought Bono had good things to say. and i worked in politics for 10 years, so i'm as cynical as they come about tv appearances. he did a lot better than Donald Rumsfeld who was on before him--Rummy was fumbling all over himself trying not to answer Tim Russert's questions.
I didn't see it but I would fully expect that Bono would have came off much better than old Dumbsfeld considering all the super deep stinking shit he and his elite buddies have us all mired in at the moment with the outlook looking even worse for us.
Either way, considering both guests, in my eyes, the show was one I'd regard as a total shitfest.
Why is it that most of these blow bag rock stars seem to never care about the many disenfranchiesed in their own countries? Doesn't charity start at home? No disrespect whatsoever intended towards the hardships of others elsewhere. It's just that the homies always seem to get left out in the cold, so to speak. And as we all know, just because a country is rich, or even well off, doesn't mean that all of it's citizens share in that wealth.
