10. Ted Kopple ticked me off ....trying to put words in springsteing

mouth....kept trying to say they were doing it to go against president bush rather than for kerry. And then how was kerry iraq policy different than bush....this is horrible the way they question.

Why aren't they questioning bush about anything????????

I am disliking the media more and more......

11. Don't you know, it's okay to excorciate liberals at every opportunity

but you must never,never make a "conservative" even the slightest bit uncomfortable.

These are the rules of engagement.

[VolcanoJen]

13. I am SO SICK of the "Dems aren't Pro-Kerry, they're Anti-Bush" meme!!

Ted Koppel continued to spread this ridiculous point of view during his interview with Bruce tonight.

The media groupthink is truly, truly out of control.

[2Design]

14. I agree....that really got to me.....bruce never said that....ted

was trying to force those words on him.....

[genius]

15. How far into the show? I like to monitor the jokes on the Tonight Show

before going to Nightline.

16. Thank You Bruce

I loved what he said "we who are about to be trashed salute you..." or something to that effect. No doubt they are going to go after him in a very big way.

Bruce has always supported a variety of causes that most DUers would approve of but he has never before supported a political candidate. Some of his causes are very public, many are not. I live in Monmouth county New Jersey a few miles from his home and have spoken to activists in causes ranging from environmental issues to soup kitchens who say that Bruce is one of their biggest supporters. Bruce does not like to do television interviews and he looks like he's not truly comfortable speaking without a guitar in his hand but this took alot of guts.

Check out his op-ed piece in the New York Times. And welcome to the coalition of the wild-eyed Bruce.

17. How far gone things must REALLY be!

Springsteen doesn't usually get this far into politics, no? Now, what will John Fogerty have to say?
