Yes, he had the Diallo family as his special guests and bashed the police.

[wardaddy]

EFF-HIM...aside from Nebraska, his Jersey shore shite for music was always overrated in my book anyhow.

No offense to Jersey.

Sguid

Freudian slip, or did you choose that screen name consciously?

[Paul Atreides]

A load of crap about how Bruce was right, how we were trying to take away Bruce's right of free speech, how Squid would have waged the war on Iraq, Dim talking points about W, and how Bruce spoke for a lot of people.

All Dim cliches.

[Afronaut]

You took it out of context anyway!

During the introductions of his back-up band, The E Street Band, Springsteen said of saxophonist Clarence Clemons, "It's time to impeach the president and get a man in there to get us out of this mess." The audience cheered in response.

He was referring to Clarence Clemons, who he also calls the Master of the Universe. Clarence for President. He did not stand up there and promote the Impeachment of GWB. He was Horsing around. I might offend the weak minded. What were you doing there BTW, reporting for the FR?

And Yes, Springsteen does not like GWB. either does 50% of Americans. And who should care about Springsteens politics?

SO what.

[Lauratealeaf]

Well, not exactly. He was one.

Thanks!

[Chad Fairbanks]

He was tossing out the standard leftist drivel... you didn't miss much...

[Squantos]

Kewl Paul.........thanks for kickin the little socialist POS whiner back to the curb.

Ya'll Stay safe !

[Squantos]

I was takin a shower........:o)

Stay safe and Thanks !

Springsteen should sing in France. Why don't these people ask themselves : "If Saddam didn't have any WMD why did he let the war happen?" Further, who has the WMD now?

[concerned about politics]

SO what.

I'm going to teach my kids he's a liberal loser. That way, they'll never buy his music. Maybe they can pass it on to friends. "Raise your children up in the way they should go...."
Never financially support any liberal. It's a death wish.

[mystery-ak]

This sickens me....My husband just called from Balad tonight...he's dodging mortar attacks daily, sometimes several a day....and now I read this....so little Bruce wants to impeach our great CinC..while our guys are fighting for his right to stand up on that stage....

[ConservativeMan55]

I agree. Your husband is over there fighting so everyone over here can be free.

Prayers go out to your husband.

[wilmington2]

Looks to me that he did say , impeach the President. Your excuse does not make a lot of sense.

[blam]

"Springsteen's a no-talent bum in my book. Always has been."

Thank you. I've always thought the same. Never liked the phony POS!

Rock star Bruce Springsteen called for the impeachment of President George W. Bush at a nearly sold-out concert at FedEx Field just outside of Washington, DC tonight. During the introductions of his back-up band, The E Street Band, Springsteen said of saxophonist Clarence Clemons, "It's time to impeach the president and get a man in there to get us out of this mess." The audience cheered in response.

Springsteen is a flaming dumbass, with a like-minded audience of celebrity cultists.

[Timesink]

He was referring to Clarence Clemons, who he also calls the Master of the Universe. Clarence for President. He did not stand up there and promote the Impeachment of GWB. He was Horsing around. I might offend the weak minded.

I have to agree. Springsteen may not be planning to vote for GWB again, but it sounds like he was just playing up Clarence Clemons to an audience he knew would go for the line (it WAS Washington DC after all).

Kristinn, apparently you were there? What actually happened?

[Chad Fairbanks]

I always feel like I need a shower after reading leftist crap LOL

[wilmington2]

Your husband has guts, the Hollywood left does not.

[ConservativeMan55]

Prayers going out for your husband. He is truly a Freedom Fighting Hero.
