Why does Jon think he is right?
I have read reports that Jon is giving a small political speech in the concerts recently. I disagree with this.
An artist who mentions politics in shows is basically abusing his position by inflicting his views on fans who hold his opinions in high regard. What makes the artist think that he is right? Basically his attitude is that this is my opinion and since you are my fans it will be your opinion too.
It is very arrogant of the 'highly educated' Jon to voice his opinion on Iraq, and I am glad that some poeple booed him at the concert whose review I read over in the tour section. I am not saying I disagree with him, but a rock concert is no place for politics, solely for the reasons mentioned above.
