“Bruce Springsteen, a once proud American with his song “Born in the USA” said at a concert in Australia he’s embarrassed to be an American.”
Born in the USA was a song about self pity and an attack on America and patriotism. It was not a song that praised or honored America. It was not a song that reflected pride in America.

Springsteen has not had a good song since the 1980s.

Springsteen should leave now and take his phony, unpatriotic friends with him.

The sooner that Springsteen leaves the better.


I think the song was a story of the times, and accurate. The left had perpetuated an anti soldier/veteran campaign and mood in this country, where the soldiers were spit on in society. It was the Reagan era that restored respect for those in uniform.

Yeah, well being in the military during those years was not the most pleasant experience because of the left/commies. People like this piece of crap didn’t help us any. So, pardon me if I disagree with the “story of the times and accurate” theme.
