Bush Nominates Bono For President? Rage Against The Machine Reveal Mystery Behind Clocks, And More

6/7/07, 3:04 pm EST

Bono Bush

  • Yesterday at the G-8 summit, President Bush made a point of seeking out U2’s Bono, allegedly shouting to his aide: “Where’s Bono? Bono for President!” (The aide then calmly explained to Bush that Bono isn’t a natural-born U.S. citizen and therefore can’t run for President). Bono and Bob Geldof were at the German conference to lobby for funding to poorer countries. Word from the Deutchland indicates Bono and The Edge performed “Sunday Bloody Sunday” at the Voices Against Poverty concert.
  • The mystery of the Rage Against the Machine countdown clock has been solved. Supposedly, by setting your computer clock to the estimated time the countdown was to end, you’ll discover the big revelation is that Rage will be playing a concert in East Troy, Wisconsin.
  • Listen to “Sober,” the second single from Kelly Clarkson’s new album My December.
  • Be the coolest hipster on New York’s Lower East Side by wearing a couple of the T-shirts found in Justice’s awesome “D.A.N.C.E.” video.
  • Check out M.I.A.’s “Boyz,” the first official single from her upcoming Kala.
  • Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones, Ben Harper, and The Roots’ ?uestlove will come together at Bonnaroo to form this year’s Superjam.

Bono really needs to grow his hair again. It looked good when it was really short whilst on the final leg of the Vertigo tour but I haven’t seen a good photo of him since. Please tell me Sexy Bono hasn’t gone away.

Hopefully he is growing it again and its just in its horrid, in between phase.

Uh…hey dudes, East Troy is about an hour drive from Chicago, IL, a fairly large city so I’ve heard and a Democrat hot-bed.

God I thought I was the only one who thought Bono was Robin Williams. OOOOH the relief that there is people out there as clever as me!

I use a clock like RATM’s to let my fans know when I will be doing a book signing.

Eric | 6/8/2007, 1:49 pm EST

they fixed the ratm site. it’s no longer on relative pc time, so resetting your clock won’t work.

both aid and aide are acceptable.
that is all.

buzzed | 6/8/2007, 2:15 pm EST

sober belongs to Tool and Tool alone.

And, to replace Bush immediately. Finally after all this time George W. says something that makes sense. Let’s look at the compelling evidence Bush Vs. Bono.

Bush= hated Bono = loved
People would pay to see Bono. Bush = not so much.
Bono actually created something that generates positive cash flow. Bush = not so much.
Bono has helped to alleviate pain and suffering around the world; George has added to pain and suffering around the world.
Everything Bono touches turns to gold or at least platinum. Everything Bush touches, well, not so much.
The only question? When can Bono start.
