Glenn Beck Denounces Springsteen's 'Born In The USA'

Conservative talk show host Glenn Becksingled out Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" at a political rally as an example of the progressive politics he opposes. Beck read lyrics from the 1984 hit, then denounced the subject of the song as unpatriotic. Beck said, "That's what it's all about. That's what America's all about, according to Springsteen. . . . It's time for us to wake, wake up, out of our, um, dream state. Wake up out of the propaganda."

Responses:

At least they finally figured out what it means. IIRC Reagan used it at campaign rallies (which Bruce denounced). -- nm - pmb Mar 15, 14:27 1
