Don't get your hopes up Andrew
Perry de Havilland (London)  Globalization/economics

Andrew Sullivan is pleased that Irish singer Bono is not slagging off drug companies. Well a word of advice, Andrew... don't get your hopes up that Bono's seeming conversion to the forces of reason is more than a fragile veneer. He does have this disheartening knack for seeming to make sense, only to dash your raised expectations on the rocks of reality a little further down the road, as I observed back on January 14th 2002 in the article Teeth grinding illogic and grotesque conflation...or perhaps genius?. He is either a perverse genius or a jackass. You choose.
