Bono-yeah! But the other members of the band aren't such mad.U2 have always been a political band, face it. If you don't like it, go and listen to some band that's on the charts today. Don't go to a U2 concerts if you don't like political messages. You're fan of the wrong band, really. I hope they never stop being political. And like someone else here said: The personal and the political are often the same thing.
