Bruce Springsteen used his latest fundraising bash for Democrat Barack Obama to poke fun at one of the presidential candidate's Republican rivals, Sarah Palin.
Springsteen dueted with fellow rocker Billy Joel for the first time ever at the bash, at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom on Thursday. And the Born to Run hit-maker jokingly compared the pair's inexperience to criticism of Alaska Governor and vice presidential candidate Palin.
He told the crowd, "Billy and I have rehearsed a little, but you have to consider this more like the vice presidential debate: you have to Palin-ise your expectations. We seem like we know a lot, but we don't really."
Springsteen and Joel were joined at the fundraiser by india.arie and John Legend.
I DO care about the Jills, Joes and Janes out there! But to heck with Bruce Springsteen and other commie cranks.
Can I get a translator please?
Broooose. You aren't the Boss of me. And your “everyman” shtick is bogus.
Bruce is just another elitist thug. I bet he hates himself for that.
“Billy and I have rehearsed a little, but you have to consider this more like the vice presidential debate: you have to Palin-ise your expectations. We seem like we know a lot, but we don’t really.”
They dated and fought over who would get to be Sarah.
“57 channels and there’s nothing on”—Bruce Springsteen
Hey, maybe that’s why Obamie thought there were 57 states?
It shows in his comments.
“the boss” is one of those guys i would have no problem in landing a strong left hook to the right ear area...just like my daddy taught me.
i know i would do a bit of time for it..but i sure would feel a sense of pride.
The “ BOSS “ has been trading on this working class hero act for years . No one cares what he thinks , says or does.
Stick to music Bruce, your leftist friends have politics covered.
Don’t these celebrities ever feel weird for being so 100% predictable and conformist?
Bruce Springsteen? That name sounds vaguely familiar.
He is so 80s.
Sarah came out under a lot of pressure and had a great debate. She seemed to have a good grasp on the issues.
Why do they still insist on calling her stupid ?
Ahhhhh Jeeees not this sh#t again.
Yet another lefty has-been.
If Obamama wins this thing and has a democrat Congress then I hope that immediately that conservatives can start with the HATE and pour it on both Obama and the Congress
and not let up for 4 years. Because really this is all that has been done by the left for the past 8 years.
We are going to have socialism because Mr. Undecided is so gullible that he has bought into the hate from the left.
Well, we’ll see how that works out for Mr. Undecided when Social Security and Medicaide are broke, there are no places to invest money, there are no jobs excapt for service jobs or public works jobs.
That’s not funny, but just dumb. The premise, that he and Joel are inexperienced, is not even true, if the field is musicmaking.
WORST concert I ever went to was Springsteen in St. Louis a few years ago...he sounded like sh**
Ok, we have here two has- been rocksters whose combined IQ is less than that of a turnip (and one of them could not even stay married to Christie Brinkley, ROTFLMAO!) Hey, both of ya, STFU!
