Anyone catch Springsteen on CNN??
Edited on Fri Jun-23-06 07:11 AM by berner59
I caught half of it but Soledad showed her true colors... She's asking him if it's smart to be so political in his concerts, whether he's in danger of losing his fans... Oh please... She said "When you say our country would be better off without George Bush as President...isn't that bold(or something in that ilk...). And Bruce just laughed..."That's just common sense these days!!" She didn't look amused... He did a lot of Bush bashing and she just sat there without a clue of what to say...it was great...

Seeing Bruce on Sat night in NJ...can't wait!!

She said you see the interview on cnn.com/pipeline all day but I think you have pay for it...sorry Soledad...I'm not giving money to your stupid network...

1. Good for Bruce.
Soledad O'Brien, too, is a tool.

4. You can't even name a handful of news readers who AREN'T fascist tools
these days.

At CNN, they work for House of Saud and House of Bush.

2. Having to spend more than a millisecond with Soledad
would be a lifetime too long. She, and most all of NBC, work 24hrs. for BushCo and the right wing.

5. Not to mention that she is also a total airhead.

3. Solidad is breathtakingly vapid. Those questions highlighted
her shallowness. She had no clue about the statue and character of the man she called herself interviewing. In her mind, it was inconceivable that Springsteen might care more about what is right that what might make the most money. She is one of the reasons I never watch CNN in the morning. There's something about someone giggling through all sorts of bad news that gets to me.

6. He's in danger of losing his fans? LOL!
Well, that would be great, it wouldn't be so damn difficult to get into one of his concerts!

Bruce could lose three-quarters of his fans (which isn't gonna happen, since even his conservative fans "excuse" his politics) and his fan base would still be huge. Plus he's already got more money than God, so who gives a crap?

I like that comment about common sense!

Enjoy the concert!!!

7. I saw it. Loved it.
Be nice to find a video of it to send to people :)

The Boss was great.

Did they say his new CD or tour is called "We Shall Overcome?"

Those CNN talking heads are sooooooooooo annoying.
