ELTON JOHN DEFENDS ELLEN DEGENERES' FRIENDSHIP WITH GEORGE W BUSH
'GEORGE (W) BUSH HAS MADE A LOT OF MISTAKES,' SAYS ELTON JOHN
Elton John has defended Ellen DeGeneres' controversial friendship with former president George W Bush, admitting he "admires" the US talk show host for defending it. "George Bush has made a lot of mistakes. I made a lot of mistakes. Ellen DeGeneres has made a lot of mistakes," John said. Defending the comedian during an interview on NPR (national public radio), Elton John said: "Unfortunately, what our democracy has become now is that it's not okay to have different opinions than yours and that is not healthy."
The Rocketman singer explained: "Yes, there were [bad] decisions that he's (George W Bush) made, but that was made by Democratic presidents and Republican presidents. And I admire Ellen for standing up and saying what she did."
Murder is an "honest mistake" according to Elton John? The invasion of Iraq in 2003 cost the lives of how many? What George W Bush and Tony Blair did in 2003 was a war crime and not a "mistake".
The movie "Rocketman" bombed.
Indeed I tend to try not to befriend mass murderers and those who hands are soaked in blood, war mongering despots and war criminals but hey . . . . . . I guess when you are all THAT rich it doesn't really matter to have like principles and you can't just find yourself leaning across saying
"Hey, George, what's it feel like being rresponbile for all that like you know, death and stuff?"
