The Manchester Evening News apparently reported on it's website that local boy Morrissey, while announcing Ronald Reagan's death at his Dublin gig Saturday, then went on to wish aloud that it had been Bush instead. Allegedly. And so today forums are all abuzz with responses from outraged Americans.
Of course most of the agitation is taking place on Moz's own forum where there is actually a post that begins:
The most amazing part of his comments is how soon you the uk and the french have forgotten what we did for you.
We here at glossolalia choose not to name who WE wish were dead, but will make one wish aloud. That all self righteous opinionated passion over fuck-all could be channeled toward something that really mattered.
