"It's a different world now from when Springsteen wrote those early songs, and he talked frankly at times about the differences. He decried "illegal wiretapping, rendition, black sites, an attack on the Constitution" before playing "Livin' in the Future," and introduced new song "Magic" as an allegory about an "Orwellian moment when what's true can be made to seem like a lie and what's a lie can be made to seem true, and we've witnessed the consequences over the past six years."

As the media gets more and more blantant in it's media bias and dems lean further and further left Bruce has once again proven that Liberals are truly like those in 1984.

Lies seem like truth:

Bill O a racist, Rush doesn't support the troops, the surge doesn't matter?  Hmmmm

Illegal Wiretapping?  

Or getting Doctors to ask invasive questions?  Putting a black-box in your car to see if you are smoking with the kids in the car?

An Attack on the constitution?  

Seperation of Church and State?  Abortion in the constituion?  Hate Crimes? Homo-Marriage? Hmmm..

Bruce hits the projection nail on the head.

Springsteen is a hippocrate lib. This is a guy that made a name for himself and wrote songs about being a blue collar working class man. He lives in Rumson, NJ in an area of 5 mil homes. He also owns a multimillion dollar horse farm in nearby Colts Neck, where he and his family hob nob with the equestrian set. Not to mention his Malibu estate.

Some working class guy!!

Springsteen was somewhat of a hero to me in my naive youth; however, the older I got the more I realized his whole pre-packaged message is a childlike interpretation of the world (at best) or a completely disingenuous scam (at worst).  At a concert I attended a few years back, he started pushing an Al Franken book on the audience.  That was pretty much the end for me.  It's a shame.  He is a good performer, but he appears to have the intellect of a 17 year-old who has never experienced anything outside of his own neighborhood.

Unbelievably, CT Governor Jodi Rell made yesterday Bruce Springstein Day. 

Other than blowing into town for a concert, Springstein did absolutely nothing to justify the "honor."

It's appropriate that the Courant's political cartoonist always depicts Rell as Snow White.  The woman lives in a fairy tale.

Springsteen, the Dixies, Rosie, the whole crew, constantly and quite openly rip into Bush with relentless mean-spirited criticisms about how his adminstration has threatend their right to critisize or dissent. But wait, isn't their criticism and dissent of their lack of ability to critisize and dissent mean that they are in fact, critisizing and dissenting. And, I've yet to see Cheney dash on stage and cuff anyone. Interesting how these brave souls never critisize, via song, movie or other media, mass murdurers like Saddam, OBL or question Islamist Facist Terrorists. To paraphrase Mark Steyn, they're afraid to not appear to be multi-cultural, or worse yet, suffer the same fate as Theo Van Gogh.  

Last night I surfed by Letterman and John Fogerty of CCR was on stage wailing a song about George Bush..........and I just sat there wondering how some 60 something geezer just has no life.
I mean here is Springstein, a millionaire, go talent from God, has fame, fans and the world by the donkey and all he can do is rant like a 3 year old in a tantrum.

Sure I know what makes these people's psychopathies tick, but I sometimes just don't understand it as an American.

How can any of these people not just appreciate having 3 bucks in your pocket after you order up a shot of southern comfort and a tall boy beer with some olives bobbing around in it.
How can they not enjoy sitting there with a buddy watching the world go by, football on tv, eyeing a waitress they never have a chance with..............knowing how good that beer tastes on a hot day where you were scorching your body to meltdown working for a living.........knowing this half hour is your part of the day before you got to go home to a nagging wife saying your life blood is not enough payment or a screeching ex wife's voice on the answering maching saying your life blood is not enough alimony payment.

My Uncle once said, "You know I got it pretty good. I got a pretty new pickup. Go fishing in a pretty good boat and I got a pretty good gun".
This same Gentleman I was sitting beside in the hospice not knowing I was there as he was dying of brain cancer.........and after a Chaplain's prayer simply said, "Thank you Father".

A man dying of horrid painful cancer and he was thankful........it is too bad for this world that simple hate is what Springstein is.....he would be in God's grace allot better off having the gift my Uncle had.
