Glenn Beck insists pompous blowhard Springsteen’s anthem is anti-American

March 16, 2010 By admin

Gee, ya think?

The only “news” here is that this opinion — that “Born in the U.S.A.” could be considered anti-American — is what now constitutes “news” by some “news” organizations.

All the lefties and liberals writing these shocked, shocked articles today only like “Born in the USA” because they think it is anti-American.

That’s why Reagan’s (people’s) brief choice of the song for his campaign was treated as “proof” that he was a tone deaf twit. Duh.

Conservatives forget stuff too. George Will’s take on Springsteen and this song was memorably obtuse, and has always crippled my ability to take the man seriously on any other subject.
