Bono on Oprha

Bono was on Oprah today. Yes I watched it. I cant belive what he wants the US Goverment to do. He wants for us to give 5 Billion dollars a year to African countries. And to forgive thier debts.
He also stated that we should supply health care to these countries.
Maybe I'm wrong but aren't we something like 17 Trillion in debt? I dont think anybody is going to forgive us of our debts. And I know of people in this country who dont have healthcare.
Again I might be wrong but I dont think that throwing money at thier problems will make them go away. These people are still liveing in the dark ages. They butcher and mutilate each other in the name of tradition. (I could go into details but I wont here.) Untill these people come out of the dark ages and can be educated throwing money at thier problems is only that and not a cure. As Dr Phil has said several times "you dont fix a money problum with money".
But what realy burns me is that he[Bono] thinks it is Americas responcibility. Why is it not his Country's of Ireland's? Or Britan's or Canada's or Mexico's?

When I was a child, I thought as a child. But now that I am growen, I just wish I could act like a child and get away with it.

By the way, of the old duo "Sonny and Cher," Sonny was the talented one.

If you don't know your rights, you dont't have any
Bono is an Irish liberal who sings in a band. F-4 or something like that.

You are not an idiot.
And I don't like Cher. Always did like Sonny though.

I didnt say I LIKED Cher .. just that she was nice to look at. I did like Sonny as an entertainer.

I knew they wouldn't last as long as Ike and Tina,, The Captain and Tenille or K.C. and the Sunshine Band..

So was it John Denver that went down in that experimental plane?? His music has a good beat and it is easy to dance to..
"Just my opinion."
Often the mind believes it is thinking, when it is only passing from one metaphor to the next.
Those people who see nothing but grey areas, no black and white, are lost in the fog.
Why would cool musicians want to live in the hot desert?? Aren't they all from Seattle??
Of course I'm sure they got 7-11's and Taco-Bells in the desert so food and water wouldn't be a problem.
If they can't afford their own luggage then they need to get a new manager!!
"Just my opinion."
sort of seems like a double standard if you ask me.
