Entertaing the Wound Warriors: John Mellencamp Rocks Walter Reed

[Larry Lucido]

I hate his politics, but as long as the troops received some needed comfort and happiness, that’s all that matters to me.

[100-Fold_Return]

Cougar—and the rest of America—could do more for our brave servicemen and women by praying for VICTORY IN IRAN, ASAP!!!!

[frankenMonkey]

An outspoken opponent of the war in Iraq, Mellencamp steered clear of any political statement, choosing instead to emphasize his support to the troops.

Works for me. I'm not a fan, but my gratitude goes out to him...

[RussP]

This guy’s music has always struck me a mediocre at best, but if the troops liked him that’s all that matters. Good for him — and thanks for keeping a lid on the anti-war crap!

This showed class for a change among our dear left. Hat’s off to him.

[peeps36]

The American soldiers showed even more class by not booing him off stage.

[Liberty Valance]

Thank you Mr. Mellencamp. You did a great thing.

[Millee]

He stands head & shoulders above most of his lefty ilk. Good for you, Mr. Melloncamp!

[Always Right]

Well I am glad John kept his message positive. His music tends to be patriotic and uplifting, far different than the politics that he has spewed recently.

[Always Right]

He stands head & shoulders above most of his lefty ilk.

Don't go too far, Mellencamp has said some pretty negative things about the war. I am glad he is taking a page from Bono and not insulting half his fan base with goofy left-wing politics.

[Millee]

Well I don’t hold any of the leftist in very high esteem, so it wasn’t much of a compliment. ;o)

[TigersEye]

I like his music, hate his political views but what he did here means lots more than either one. You did a great thing, John! Thank you.

[TASMANIANRED]

Good on Mellencamp.

Prayers for our wounded warriors.

[Doctor Raoul]

Roger that. He's a good guy for doing that.

Al Franken in the other hand is a real creep. He went over to Iraq and spouted his anti-war crap in his act. It was disguised as comedy, but he worked in all the moonbat talking points.

[dennisw]

Good for our boys and thanks John Mellencamp. Yes, I’m aware of what a vile lefty kook he can be

[Porterville]

John Cougar is a crap monkey. I used to love his stuff, now I turn it off and scream at the radio.

[Albion Wilde]

Thanks for the ping!
