Springsteen Faults "President Bystander" - Z3R0 - 05-12-2006
Hmph. Here's an big suprise: MoveOn.org enthusiast and aging pop star Bruce Springsteen has blamed George W. Bush for all the ills in New Orleans. In doing so, however, Springsteen betrays an almost "criminal ineptitude" of the mind. He rehashes long-since debunked and disproven urban tales of woe. He fails to fault those vaunted "first responders" (the police officers who called in sick to steal Cadillacs). And, of course, there are no harsh words for the local and state politicians, where the bulk of the responsibility lies.
Eh. Who needs truth when your bashing George W. Bush? It is reward enough in and of itself when you are a desperately past-your-prime musician no longer capable of writing songs.

you have to be able to write good songs in the first place in order to pass your prime and no longer be capable of writing them

Springstein had some good songs way back when...oh wait I'm thinking of Clapton aren't I? Cocaine baby...
Unfortunately with celebrities taking the blame off of the mayor he'll continue to go on without being repimanded for refusing to evacuate the city and then not asking for help in the relief, which by law the president needs to be requested to provide aid by the local government.

i dont know why people blame bush for everything! i mean come on. look what he has been up against since the start of his role as president. you have to admit itd be hard being the person to decide what to do about all that has happened. I think he has done an awesome job. i hope i read that right, and not saying something completely off topic...
