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.

He embarrasses me.
Any of you people living in this country that feel ashamed to be American why don’t you just pack up and get the hell out of our country and stay the hell out because Real Americans don’t want you here
His career in the toilet screw him

I am NOT embarrassed by true Americas, I am however embarrassed and ashamed of how the left wing cusses, demotrates their constant hatred, their crazy liberal views, and their ignorance.
He should be embarrassed of himself!
