BONO - The University of Pennsylvania's 248th Commencement

[pete]

receives his honorary doctarate

his intro and commencement speech

[FORD]

Even Bono himself can't keep graduation ceremonies from inducing sleep.

"steeeeeel hasn't found, what he's lookin' for......."

[pete]

tell me his commencement speech isn't great.

[pete]

This is the shit inspired by Jello Biafra....FORD

This does not differntiate people among parties.

This is Lennon without drug addled eloquence.

This is eloquence.

This is what happens when MLK inspires you.

You can fight and choose a side. But the sides are a facade for one controlling factor soliciting appeal to all with a different name.

Republican - Democrat - bullshit

If we can police the crimes of a planet, we can assume the responsibility of preventing terrorism.

Poverty breeds terrorism (bin laden knows where to shop). It creates the soldiers that the middle east loses by our hand.

Ford. Shoot me down or justify your indifference to this speech...... this man.

[pete]

AND DON'T FORGET


MLK got lots of pussy!

(ask coretta)

[BITEYOASS]

Fuckin Bono!!!! I bet he wanted more money for AIDS in africa!

[Wayne L.]

Bono is one of the most overrated frontmen in rock with his holier than thou attitude while U2 is one of the most overrated rock bands in history!!!

Pete, I can't pull it up, but I admire Bono for his untiring work in Africa with the Aids epidemic. He is a Taurus like Willie Nelson, who started Farm Aid. Their unswerving dedication and selfless charity has made a vast difference in the lives of so many people. It does my heart good to see such dedication in helping the poorest of the poor in the most diseased and famine plagued nation in the world. He is surely blest by GOD. Some give lip service, few roll up their sleeves and get dirty.
