Here are my questions regarding Mr. Bono:
1. What is his highest level of education completed?
2. Will he be willing to bathe regularly if he is given this job?
Has the world gone insane? A musician to head up the World Bank. Now I've seen everything.
It's a sure sign of the apocalypse.
I get the feeling that the Bush administration doesn't like the World Bank very much...
Why not a musician? MTV is where I get my political news. Doesn't everyone? /sarcasm
If not, then fire Treasury Secretary Snow. (What is it with this position?)
The world is coming to an end.
And a fired CEO who left with millions in 'Get Lost' payments as another candidate. Clinton touted as UN Sec General and his wife touted as US President. The Elites have gotten to the point where they don't even have to hide their schemes, they have no fear.To answer your question - Yes, the World has gone insane.
What is Scrapple Face doing hacking AP? Now they've gone too far.
He should start by lowering his concert prices so I have more money to donate to the poor.
yeah,...and Bono can have Soupy Sales as his personal muse/confidant,......."paging Dr. Howard ,Dr. Fine ,Dr. Howard..." [the Three Stooges] let's see has Bono handled all of U2's finances?? hmmm
How is this related to peace? Instead of constantly putting the pressure on the United States to throw money to warlords, tyrants and corrupt a-holes, why doesn`t he put pressure on the warlords, tyrants and the a-holes to get their sh-t together? Oh but that`s too dangerous. Let`s see him go to Kim Jong Il and tell the "Emperor" to get his mini butt off his high horse and stop starving his people, or tell Castro to free his people and stop killing the ones who try to escape. Oh but that`s right, you can`t put any pressure on animals the left worships. "How dare Bush say Mr. Jong Il is in the axis of evil!"
If Bono wants to do any good as an entertainer, he should tell the left that infects his buisiness to stop supporting these animals. I mean how many people from Hollywood and the music biz have gone to Cuba now to worship Castro?? You could practically name just about anyone who is anyone in Hollywood. Speilberg, Nicholson, Kevin Costner, Robert Redford, Spike Lee, Sidney Pollack, Oliver Stone, Woody Harrelson, Danny Glover, Ed Asner, Shirley MacLaine, Alanis Morissette, Leonardo DiCaprio,even the freggin` dingbat models go over there to worship that animal, Kate Moss and that other cocaine junkie Naomi Cambell who declared "Castro was a source of inspiration to the world". Naomi Cambell who is a good friend of BONO!!!
Ah, how? By screaming at America to more & more & more? I don't recall hearing about Boner giving up HIS money. Or, am I wrong?
And Jesse Helms is also a good friend of Bono. Therefore, Jesse Helms believes that Castro is "a source of inspiration to the world"?
What the heck, I'll come out in favor of it. For one, seriously nominating Bono (or Carla) pretty much confirms to me that the position is useless. Second, either he will surprise me and do something good, or really mess up the world bank, and we can cut our participation in it.
I`m just saying if he wants to do some good, he should tell his buddies to stop supporting these animals and promote that instead of constantly asking for cash to make these animals rich, because that`s all he`s doing. He`s not relieving ANY debt. He`s taking money from the United States and putting it straight into the pockets of these a-holes. Supporting terrorism, Communism, tyranny, warlords, that`s all you ever hear and get from Hollywood and the music biz, they are promoted relentlessly, yet the ones who hate Castro, the ones who know the horror of Communism are never given any platform whatsoever, they are completely shut out from the media. Gloria Estefan for example...
"Singer Gloria Estefan is another Cuban refugee who feels frustrated that people don't understand the Castro government. Estefan fled the communist nation when she was two years old.
"People don't have a lot of information, and when they ask me about it, I tell them about the drama of exiles, the repression, the firing squads, the horror of communism," she told Exito Online in 1997.
"My whole family paid a heavy price for freedom. My father not only fought in the Bay of Pigs, he volunteered to fight in Vietnam. He fought for these same freedoms," Estefan said.
"How could I forget that Fidel Castro was the person who did me so much harm?" she asked."
I mean, as long as we're considering brain-dead rock stars, let's keep an open mind to the wide field of candidates.
Personally I'd suggest Kurt Cobain. He's already dead and would likely do the least amount of damage.
I thought he meant Mary Bono at first. LOL
