This week, Bruce Springsteen claimed that he was standing amount “embarrassed Americans”.
This coming from the man who sings “Born in the USA,” but the signs were there all along. Springsteen’s hit may sound like a patriotic jam, but its intention is often misheard or misunderstood. With lyrics like “So they put a rifle in my hand / Sent me off to a foreign land / To go and kill the yellow man,” the song was a political statement from the very beginning.
The anti-war/anti-America message may have been subtle then, but now Springsteen is making his displeasure with the United States known across the world. His most overt criticism of his home country came this week during a concert in Melbourne, Australia.

I guess when I pulled this mfer off the stage 25 years ago for being rude to my wife, I guess I banged his head on the cement a little hard before security pulled me off this punks azz. His eyes are still closed after I took it to his azz
With that voice you are the embarrassment.
That boycott list keeps getting longer with each passing day and best of all, I am saving so much money! Better in my pocket than in theirs! LOL
bruce you dont speak for proud americans perhaps reading in other places besides the liberal news seems most that were questioned on things and people has shown lost causes
You may feel embarrassed but I certainly DO NOT!!!
Asshole
Speak for yourself, you do not represent me!
He’s not speaking for me! I’m proud of our President, Veterans, Flag an Anthem !
The only embarrassment here is you Springsteen, nothing but a has been.
Don’t bother. You are already standing in the back!
