How ironic, while Amanda continues her "insufferable music snob" advice column, and while SCLBs and Democrat insiders push ever rightward, we see Bono, poster boy of the left (and ever unhip wearer of tinted specs) striking a pose for....

...wait for it....

...Senator Rick Santorum.

Yes, the singer of the "greatest rock n' roll band in the world" (sic) is doing a fundraiser for the biggest fucktard in Congress (sick).

On Sunday, October 16, a truly unique political event will take place.

Teaming up with the legendary rock group U2 for a one-night only appearance will be Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Penn.).

The thousand-dollar-a-seat concert has been put together by Sean and Ana Wolfington and will take place at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia in support of Santorum’s re-election, reports NewsMax's James Hirsen.

Whatever the seating capacity, $1000 bucks a pop buys a lot of asshats.

So has Bono finally found what he's looking for? Have his Catholic patriarchal feelings about women and reproduction, um, reared their ugly, um, head?

I’m just trying to find a decent melody a song that I can sing in my own company

I never thought you were a fool

But darling look at you

You gotta stand up straight

Carry your own weight

These tears are going nowhere baby

You’ve got to get yourself together

You’ve got stuck in a moment

And now you can’t get out of it

Don’t say that later will be better

Now you’re stuck in a moment

And you can’t get out of it

Someone please just tell me this is a joke. Google suggests not.
