  • thehumanraceisflawed and dorianphillips are right. I love Conor, as well. He's one of the greatest songwriters of our generation, and i do agree the war iraq was wrong. But Conor (and the rest of you rich liberals with textbook white guilt) are benefitting from the American way of life, but insist on self-righteously denouncing your comfort and luxury. It's fake and fucking stupid. The reason why Conor has money is because he has been afforded that opportunity by living here. Fuck you guys.

  • ROOSEVELT ROOM!

  • @boyruns They didn't talk at your monsters of folk concert? They talked a ton at the one I went to. Conor included.

  • ahhh not true my friend.I dont want ot get to political on a connor video.But to the point.

    After the soviot union broke up all these people that lived in russia that had good ideas,could finnaly tell people.and as a result of their new freedm.Mosscow(russias capital) Is a city home to more millionsairs than any other in the world(and im talking of people home to that city.)

  • Same here. And it was in Omaha, his home town and where Bright Eyes started and everything, but he didn't say a word. *sigh*

  • oh man me too!

    i went to a monsters of folk concert and they didnt even talk

    :((

  • Ah I miss the days when Conor talked at concerts.

  • early version or Roosevelt room!!

  • You're very bitter. I grew up very poor but worked very hard. No one paid for my education but me. Now I'm an engineer. As long as the government provides a teet for the poor to suckle on there will be no progress. I shouldn't have to pay more taxes because I took my destiny into my own hands and worked hard. I hope someday I can be a millionaire. Don't accuse rich people of being evil. You make your own future.

  • As long as there are millionaires running around with 5, 10, 20 houses, hundreds of cars, and a private jet there is NO reason why they can't pay more taxes. Boo-hoo, they have to settle on a $15 million house rather then a $30 million house, if that isn't good enough for them they can go take their chances elsewhere. Don't ever try to claim that it is a necessary evil for people to be starving and homeless while others can actually afford to wipe their ass with $100 bills.
