So said a respondent to the following blog entry from the Telegraph about Bono’s recent apperance at the Tory party conference: ‘Is Bono a Conservative?’
Catanzarite made an impressive and compelling case, arguing that while “the band’s political affections seem to most often favour those agitations (and agitators) coming from the left side of the aisle … the songs of U2 betray a state of mind, a type of character, and a way of looking at the civil social order that is undeniably conservative.”
I think Bono probably just goes where the money is to support his charitable causes.
