Bono: Can he be Trusted?

[angelordevil]

We're in the midst of a Canadian election here in the Great White North. As some may know, Bono became involved a few weeks ago after saying he was "crushed" that our Prime Minister, Paul Martin, was not committing the country to giving 0.7% of GDP to alleviate poverty in Africa.

This is from Rick Mercer's show in Canada (Mercer is perhaps the greatest Canadian comedian that the rest of the world doesn't know about).

Scroll down the page for the Bono clip: http://www.cbc.ca/mercerreport/ You may have to cut-and-paste the link.

FYI: The "Gowan" mentioned at the end of the clip is in reference to an 80's Canadian musical star who had a string of "hits" that really didn't make it out of the country
