(Contact Music) Amusing U2's Larry Mullen Jr. says seeing Bono cozying up to Tony Blair makes him cringe: "Do I think George Bush is a war criminal? Probably- but the difference between him and Tony Blair is that Blair is intelligent. So he has no excuse"   (contactmusic.com) divider line 25

Bono has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. According to one of my friends, this is a reason to like U2.

Does your friend know that Dubya was nominated for one as well?

I agree with Larry, but politics as practiced in this day and age has nothing to do with intelligence. As evidenced by Bush and his gang.

Anyone can be "nominated" for a Nobel prize. It's pretty meaningless.

What really sucks is dying 4 days before they award you one.

They don't give it posthumously.

Wow, G-Dub has been called dumb, by the drummer for a rock band.

Really?

And Obama's lies about his people having NO CONTACT with Gov. Blago?

The zenith of stupidity is lying about something that can be proven to be a lie, as Barry did here.

Also: Larry Mullen's opinions on U.S. poliltics? As important as
MY opinions on British politics.

Cozying up?

Tony Blair was Bush's lapdog, not the other way around.

So, tell us again who the smart one is.

War criminal? Dirty hippies make me laugh.

no one cares, you're a musician

NewsFlash: Express Train to Bonertown doesn't care what musicians, Larry Mullen Jr. especially, thinks about politics.

Larry Mullen, Jr. isn't a musician. He's a drummer -- an ignorant, Irish, non-interventionist one at that.

So I assume when anyone asks any of the farkers in here a question on anything political, they don't say anything? A journalist asked him a question, he responded. It just so happens they print it and millions read it - you'd all love for the same thing.

About 100,000 civilians dead from fighting in the Iraq war so far. Estimates of around 1 million when you factor in the collapse of support and medical services and displacement of people.
Oh and the reason for going to war was bullshiat and in my opinion fabricated bullshiat.
Even if Obama is Blagojevich's gay lover and the two of them went on a torture and killing spree last summer he'd still appear more honorable in my eyes.


Larry Mullen isn't British.

Now that would depend on who you ask.

Like me he was born and raised in North Dublin. Which (along with the rest of the Republic) has been officially independent from the UK for nearly 90 years now.
