Bono's BS

[Cesko]

Quote from acronym:

Cesko, your full of crap.


Bono himself, repeatedly, has stated no political figure would listen to him, not that they do, were it not for the fact his band has more media clout that most nationalist propaganda campaigns.

That makes his band, (not that edge, clayton or mullen would agree its bono's band) worth more than dodo's laying eggs of pure fissile plutonium.


And as you say, he might not be busy surviving-but the majority of artists are.

And he's still an artist, U2 is a rarity, succesful artists with something to say, are about as rare as idol contestants with original material.

I could'nt listen to billy bragg's tuneless, meandering moaning's any more than the next guy, but U2 are not billy bragg.

Thank f#ck for that.

If I am a politician (living off tax revenues) and knowing about Bono's tax -avoidance moves I am gonna listen politely too and think fuck-off idiot and that's where it would end. They listen and do nothing for the most part (newsmax mag.)
Regarding Bono's sincerety, I am too old to believe in just "words".

Very deep thinking there, very deep...

LOL!

Quote from Cesko:

The position you and your "rebuttal" issuer have taken is of course fundamentally illogical, and deeply lacking in common sense.

Very easy to say and leave it at that. Very easy.

Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:

Oh, so this is not really about issues related to Bono, this is about your conservative political agenda...

Figures...better get ready, Rush comes on in less than an hour to tell you what to think this week...

LOL!

You are right, it's funny we can go on forever like that.

 

[ZZZzzzzzzz]

It would be nice to have you actually display logic and common sense...for a change.

Oh, and we can go on forever like that...

like that, like that, like that...

Yeah ill say.
So by your reckoning, Everyone should tell cheney etc to rack off out of office, because their tax shelters are a conflict of interest?
Come on.


Well guys, heres the clincher .................

I think ive figured out where all these guys are coming from;
Bono's a catholic. If he was a rastafarian, nobody would give a rats.

Articulated by none other, than one of the wonderfully marvellous

BALDWIN brothers.

From my previous link.............

I suppose you'd all agree with this, too?

Steven baldwin;

"You would do far more good if you just preached the gospel of Jesus rather than trying to get rid of Third World debt relief."

fing absurd. Let them eat crucifix'es, thatll solve the problem.

I sincerely hope that was a typo, or a bushism on Baldwins part.......................

Yep, it DID say "get rid of third world debt RELEIF".

Well, he is a Baldwin.

Quote from traderNik:

lol... hmmm, the record seems to show something different. It's so inconvenient to have the posts accessible through search, isn't it? You and Z must hate it.

In this case, the record shows that you first equated lack of virtue with playing poker, then when questioned, changed your story and said that losing a lot of money playing poker was contrary to virtue. The proof for that is about 5 posts above these. You clearly changed your story in this very thread, just above. Not to far to scroll for anyone who's interested. Search not even required!

I actually wasn't that involved in the ID thread, so when you say you 'crushed me', you must be dreaming of someone else. What actually happened was that you claimed to read a couple of books and were making constant reference to them, then someone found out that you hadn't read them at all and were just searching quotes from the 'net. Then kjkent spoke to Susskind, and confirmed that all the Susskind material you were claiming as support for your theory of ID/Creation was actually nothing of the kind. The author himself told us through kj that you were misinterpreting him (willfully, I believe).

So you're whole argument there, which was based on appeal to authority, crumbled.

Or are you denying that the last 10 pages of that thread have been a discussion of you and the fact that the authority you've been appealing to has disavowed your arguments?

Also, I believe there was some question about your claim that you're a lawyer.

So all in all... not a great few weeks for you. Like I said earlier, maybe a fresh start with a new user ID is in order.

First of all troll. I gave links to Susskinds statements in interviews and a link to his entire introduction. I never said I read the book. I

KJ then said he sent him an email but he never produced the email and when pressed KJ did not say that susskind refuted the quotes that I cited. To cite KJs unsubstantiated claims about an email that was not even on piont manifests your juvenile reasoning abilities.


Prove that the author said I was wrong and then you are proving the author said his own quotes in interviews are wrong.


Regarding this thread. take away my losses comment (which is not important to the main concept) and you still are an idiot.

Playing poker and writing books about the need to be virtuous are inconsistent with each other.

so you can leave us troll.

Quote from jem:

If you are going to preach it, you have to live it.

The single biggest reason why we get the bad politicians we have today. People actually believe this bull***t.

It goes against the whole capitalist belief. I guess the wingers are never believers in capitalism anyway.
