I figured from the headline that he decided to go "straight."

Madman Across the Water......Redeux.....

If Elton had popped off, I would have welcomed it and I don't think W would cared either....just a reminder of the uncivility of the left. Let's give them even more opportunities...there's an election just 23 months away.

Any connection in your screen name TC, to Elton John?

I heard Robert Downey Jr was the only one to make a bad political statement.

[Yossarian]

Sir Elton was one of six entertainment legends to be honoured for their lifetime's contribution to American culture at the 27th Annual Kennedy Center Awards.

?!?!?!

[The G Man]

I heard his quotes this morning. He was extremely complimentary of Bush and remarked he was very impressed by him. (I think he may have a schoolgirl crush)

[ServesURight]

WHY WOULD BUSH GIVE THIS TWIT THE TIME OF DAY?

[EagleUSA]

Oh, Elton is just having another bad day with menopause. His hemmorhoids are probably giving him a bad time....

[JWinNC]

"...for their lifetime's contribution to American culture..."

I'm wondering what IS their contribution to American culture?

Dubya always is the adult, always is the gracious one. The others make fools and jackasses out of themselves, and he outclasses them every time.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

The two-faced, lying, smarmy fa**ot doesn't even have the courage of his convictions.

GWB showed him up as the fool he is. Show him a shiny bauble with his name on it and he falls right in line.

There's a good by Reg. Sit up. Beg for your kibble now.

[Hildy]

Look, he was as gracious as he's capable of being and that, honestly, was surprising to me. He did the right thing. Who really cares what Elton John thinks. I'm surprised that nobody is mentioning the fact that Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee were honored. There are no more vocal, active Communists than those two.

I don't agree with his politics or his lifestyle but I love his music.

"....Elton changes tune over Bush...."

I had to read this article a second time, because there is nothing in this article that reflects the claim made in the title.
