Another Thing I Like About Bono
Results before ego:
Bono said he doesn’t support any president from the left or the right, but he has a hard time criticizing Bush after he has sent the money to Africa. He said he’s made it clear that he doesn’t support the war in Iraq, but he doesn’t campaign against it because his main priority is helping the poor and disadvantaged.
“I work for them,” Bono said. “If me not shooting my mouth off about the war in Iraq is the price I pay, then I’m prepared to pay it.”
But, he added, “I’m a big-mouthed Irish rock star. Of course it frustrates me.”
Some of the people trashing the President over the Miers nomination might take a lesson: frustration need not equal public tantrums.
”frustration need not equal public tantrums”
Hi Mark,
You have distinguished yourself with all of your Miers commentary.
I ended up voting for Arnold in the California special election because of the hit pieces on him run by the LA Times.
Now, I’m starting to hope Ms. Miers gets confirmed because of all of the venom coming from the self appointed conservative protectorate who claim to be speaking for the base. I don’t remember voting for NRO for anything.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks, David…much appreciated…
Mark,
The next “in praise of” should go to Senator Tom Coburn for his attempt at fiscal responsibilty by introducing his anti-pork admendment. It is futile, but heroic nonetheless.
Minh-Duc, yes, it’s unfortunate Coburn’s attempt got shot down today…have a good one.
