Boehner To Sir Paul: Apologize To The American People
http://www.humanevents.com/ ^ | June 4, 2010 | Connie Hair

Sir Paul McCartney's cheap shot aimed at former President George W. Bush at a White House event on Wednesday has prompted House Minority Leader John Boehner to demand an apology from the Beatle.

McCartney literally gushed over President Obama throughout his East Room concert. “Getting this prize would just be good enough, but getting it from this president…” McCartney said letting his praise trail off as if there were vast volumes left unsaid.

That kind of "new tone", W's doctrine of not addressing all the Libtard lies and digs the press let hang out there that eventually became fact, is what lost us the last two elections.

I totally disagree.

Can we have make-up obnoxious pic posts when you're done being mad at me? :-O

Why does every rich celebrity with no higher education who uses their good fortune to travel the world and meet high-ranking officials and heads of state suddenly deem themselves to be in a superior intellectual class? If McCartney is so smart, how come he didn't know that George Bush has an MBA from Harvard and his wife is a librarian?

It's like saying Sir Paul doesn't know what a prosthetic limb is or what the term "golddigger" means

He is not an elected official, he is an entertainer or Hollywood type, we should go after private citizens and demand apologies when we disagree? Politicos, fair game, this, not. I do not like it when left attacks Joe the Plumber, Miss USA etc or Jon Voight etc. IMO, petty. But I do agree we should fight the libs in office when they make similar comments.

“It’s like saying Sir Paul doesn’t know what a prosthetic limb is or what the term “golddigger” means”

The golddigger should have beat him senseless with a prosthetic limb.

Don’t want his apology. Has no value. None.

In fact, I’m sick of all the apologizing.

They’ve ruined the word. They’ve ruined “racism”, “Nazi” and a long list of others.

Standards have plummeted. You used to have to win a joust, or slay a dragon, etc. to qualify;)

This will probably not turn in to the “We are greater than Jesus” moment back in ‘60s. People were out in the streets burning their Beatle albums.

Sir Paul is just like any of the other celebrities . . . who try to mask their own elitist racism by “gushing” over Obama.

Boehner - Why don’t you get to the People’s REAL Business and stop grandstanding. You act like a weak, publicity hungry idiot. Go to New Jersey and sit at the feet of Governor Christie - and learn your trade.

For the life of me, I have never understood why Sir Paul, an average to below-average singer in an average band, has been so popular—and I felt that way back in 1964.

I remember when the Beatles left England to move to the U.S. Their reason? Taxes were too high in U.K. What a hypocrite.

I don't either, but those are the old rules. Like not filibustering Supreme Court nominations. When we follow the rules we get Lucy holding the football. We have to adapt, I'm tired of losing.

Sir Paul McCartney's cheap shot aimed at former President George W. Bush...

Now I wish that I had ever bought anything of his, or respected his musical ability, or thought he was talented so that my new, intense lack of any of these for him would have any meaning or impact.

No, Obama should, but won’t apologize. He approves of this crap.

McCartney should spend his remaining years thanking God for his PAST musical gifts.

He was allowed the incredible earthly benefits of that divine gift for a lot longer than most musicians.
