I'm hoping that Rush cites this stupid article today. After all, Rush was talking at length about Bono and Africa yesterday. The problem with Bono is that he doesn't want to confront the REAL problem of poverty in Africa---Corrupt governments. Does Bono want us to continue to pour money into Africa just so that government officials can keep on skimming off the aid in the silly hope that the trickle that actually gets down to the people will increase? Has ANYBODY even asked Bono if he thinks that government corruption in Africa is a problem? Most likely Bono would answer that he doesn't want to be "judgemental."
