Bono—who writes lyrics like "Alright alright, alright, alright, alright/It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

He also wrote HEY BABY HEY BABY HEY.....

The guy has talent..LOL..

I liked Bono when I was in HS and early college but then I grew up.

From now on, I expect every Freeper to refer to me as "Bono" SkyPilot

And yesterday, I saw a little Golden Retirever with a limp....broke my heart...I wish you all would do something about it.

Just another Limousine Liberal. Live to the right talk to the left. A pretentious fop. I hate to see Bush pander to a phony character like this.

"100% taxation"
"seize his wealth"
These suggestions from a conservative publication?
Is it a humor magazine, like MAD, or am I missing something?
I really don't know.

I was riding in my Limo the other day and I saw this poor guy riding his bicycle to work in the rain... I sure wish somebody would give that poor man a ride!

If you really lived up to your namesake, you wouldn't sit there and wish we'd all do something about it - you'd be off persuading the powers-that-be to make us all do something about it. Maybe "Boner" is better than "Bono" ;)

Amazing how seeing 40% of you pay confiscated from each check can turn even the most pathos intoxicated liberal into a conservative.

Bono, beating the drum for the Dems, forever trying to improve the lot of all through the toil of others…

The lyrics comment was not fair, and written by someone who doesn't know crap about U2. Bono is an amazing artist and he has given great amounts of his own personal wealth away. Too bad people that are very uneducated about him try to take pot shots at him.

Oh, golly! Another liberal "artist." Add him to the bin. You'd think with all of them running around caring so conspicuously, they'd have done some good over the years. But nothing seems to be any better.

I dare say that toppling one leftist government would go farther toward true "liberation" of the Third World than all the U2 benefits ever will.

Oh.
If that's sarcasm...
Kinda' hard to imagine a comment like that injuring his self-respect, such that it may be.
As if I cared.

I would agree with you were it not for the fact that Bono wants to force me and other Americans to give our hard-earned money to corrupt third world countries.

I find it insane that we give any foreign aid at all, when we have so many of our own citizens with no health insurance, mental patients living on the street because there's no asylums for them, lines of addicts waiting to get into rehab, and so forth ..

Charity begins at home. Especially when it's Americans's own money being taken from them and given to non-americans.

U2 ran an anti-NRA film at their concerts last year.
Bono attacks OUR rights, just say NO to BONO.
