Bruce Springsteen on "60 Minutes" Tomorrow Night...O'Lielly is already Planning on Push Back
Edited on Sat Oct-06-07 05:44 PM by KoKo01
about Bruuuuuuce's "Unpatriotic War Comments."

So..... Bruce must have decided to COME OUT WITH FULL FORCE and the RIGHT WING is going to go After Him!

But...if Bruce sells Albums...and Corporate World get's his MESSAGE OUT..(which is that Bruce has been against WARS OF AGGRESSION HIS WHOLE LIFE!) then this good be GOOD!!! I love those 58 Year Old Boomers STANDING UP...because they've HAD ENOUGH!

:popcorn:

1. Thanks for the heads up.
Bruce has always stood against anything that was adverse to WE the people. This 56 year old applauds him and his efforts.

5. Disgusting... Apparently the Video Interview with Bruce was Already Released so Faux could go after
Him! More BushBot "Pre-emtive Strikes against those who disagree..

Here's one example of this Preview before most Americans even have had a Chance to WatchOn "60 Minutes," Bruce Springsteen defends his anti-war views and says it's unpatriotic to remain silent when U.S. is being hurt!

CBS' "60 Minutes" is on a roll with big interviews. First the Iranian president -- that fellow who inspired the marvelous "Saturday Night Live" parody. Then Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. And this weekend: Bruce Springsteen.

In an interview with Scott Pelley, Springsteen answers critics who don't like his anti-war stance. The real problem, the rocker says, rests with people who remain silent when the country is being hurt.

"I believe every citizen has a stake in the course, direction of their country. That's why we vote," Springsteen says. "It's unpatriotic at any given moment to sit back and let things pass that are damaging to some place that you love so dearly and that has given me so much."

And Springsteen has harsh things to say about the United States under President George W. Bush.

"I think we've seen things happen over the past six years that I don't think anybody ever thought they'd ever see in the United States," Springsteen says. "When people think of the United States' identity, they don't think of torture. They don't think of illegal wiretapping. They don't think of voter suppression," he says. "They don't think of no habeas corpus," he says, a reference to prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

"Those are things that are anti-American," Springsteen adds. "There's been a whole series of things that ... I never thought I'd ever see in America."

7. Bruce helped Kerry...but he's ANGRY NOW...he's COMING OUT
and many of us are VERY THANKFUL for him COMING OUT! THE M$M thinks they can USE Bruce...but they don't know what "Hornet's Nest" they are getting into trying to play "both sides against the middle."

:rofl: You don't MESS WITH BRUUUUUUUUUUUUUCE!
