| Her father Bruce Springsteen might have been ´born to run,´ but she was born to ride. Jessica Springsteen, the only daughter of the 63-year-old rock star, mounted her loyal steed on Sunday afternoon to take part in the The Trump Invitational $100,000 Grand Prix at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach. The 21-year-old equestrian, who´s been riding since she was 15, was dressed in traditional English-style riding helmet and boots along with a preppy polo shirt and white trousers.

Springsteen´s a counter culture hero and I´m sure that´ll filter down to his daughter. Of course these same people mocked Ann Romney´s horse riding.

May she be happy. And may her father eventually realize he is a fool and a hypocrite. Nothing wrong with making money, and he has worked hard for his. So what´s wrong with other people doing the same?

Wonder if his daughter will be as foolish as his dad, and fall all over the One! I do not even want to listen to Springsteen´s music anymore. May he find the error of his ways one day. Don´t care for him or family.

Musically, one of the lamest ´superstars´ ever to sell an album or ticket. Like Obama, this guy was created by the media. I remember Time and/or Newsweek covers extolling the talent of the ´Next Bob Dylan´. As if we were even asking for one.

If public television ever again shows an old concert called "Black and White" meaning not color television) given by Roy Orbison and a bunch of young people, all of whom later became famous, be sure to watch it. Bruce Springsteen is one of those young people. He is simply the best player of the guitar I have ever heard. His voicer is nothing to rave about but adequate.
I love Springsteen´s "My Home Town". It could have been written about mine. "My dad told me, these jobs are going, boy, and they ain´t never coming back" it was the story of my home town.
Yes, he is a hypocrite but that does not make him less talented.

From the man who raises bees on his farm so that he can receive a tax credits. What a hypocrite. The boss may have been Born in the U.S.A. but now he is just a rich tax dodger, like his entertainment Leftist buds.

re: #7 - That show with Roy Orbison and friends is the only time I am tempted to donate to PBS in order to get a copy of the show which is not available anywhere else it seems. Excellent music.

#7 & 12, perhaps your local video store (do they still have those!?) can order it for you. I have a VCR tape of that "Roy Orbison & Friends - A Black & White Night" - it´s on HBO Video. I´ve spied a tear or two on my hubby´s cheek when he watches that!

Onstage with Roy I spy Jackson Browne, J. D. Souther, Elvis Costello, Bruce Springstein, and as back up singers Bonnie Raitt, k.d.lang, and a third woman I can´t name. What a group!

When a devastating tornado touched down in Moore, Okla., on Monday afternoon, Shayla Taylor was on the upper floor of the local hospital, in active labor with her second child. As the floor shook “like an earthquake” beneath her and ceiling tiles and insulation fell overhead, the 25-year-old huddled with four nurses, braving both the peak contractions of childbirth and the wrath of the worst twister the veteran Oklahoman had ever endured. “We were all just sitting there holding each other’s hands and praying,” Taylor told NBC News.

Hundreds of Phoenix police officers converged on a Valley school Wednesday morning in a show of support for one of their own. The daughter of Officer Daryl Raetz, who was killed in the line of duty over the weekend, graduated from kindergarten today. Because her father couldn´t be there, her Phoenix Police Department family showed up to stand in his stead and celebrate Tatum. "She had 300, 400 parents up here for her this morning," Officer James Holmes said. "It was absolutely amazing. It was bittersweet and it was a bit overwhelming for all of us."

We regret to announce that Larry Conners is no longer a KMOV news reporter. Larry was a valued member of KMOV for a long time, and we will miss him. For KMOV, there is no higher cause than unbiased, objective news reporting. It is what our viewers expect and it is what we work very hard to deliver. We can accept no less. Larry is certainly entitled to his opinion, but taking a personal political position on one of the Station’s Facebook pages creates an appearance of bias that is inconsistent with important journalistic standards. Larry’s departure has nothing to do with the particular position

Lawmakers pressing for more heads to roll at the Internal Revenue Service are going to be disappointed. “Why weren’t more people fired?” Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.) demanded at a hearing Tuesday on the IRS’s targeting of conservative groups, channeling the frustration of his colleagues. Turns out it’s not so easy.In fact, it appears that no one has been formally reprimanded and a spokesperson for the union representing IRS workers said it hasn’t been called to help any employees yet. Most employees involved in the targeting program are covered by protections for federal workers

The Weekly Standard’s Bill Kristol has some advice for Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) on the Senate’s immigration reform bill: Walk away. “He should walk away from it,” Kristol said Tuesday on “The Laura Ingraham Show.” “He should say, I made a good faith effort, but you know what, this is not a piece of legislation.”The Weekly Standard editor told Ingraham that Rubio — who Kristol said he considers “a friend” — should step away from the “big government bill.” Instead, immigration reform should be dealt with issue-by-issue rather than by one comprehensive piece of “bad legislation,”

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) backed down from a previous promise his spokeswoman made to Breitbart News that he would consider voting in favor of amendments to the Senate´s immigration bill that would close a loophole allowing illegal immigrants immediate access to state and local welfare. When Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) actually offered an amendment that would close the loophole during Tuesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee markup of the bill, Flake joined Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and all the committee Democrats in opposing the amendment.

The Internal Revenue Service controversy dogging President Barack Obama is hardly the first time a White House and the tax agency have been accused of political meddling and bias. Over the past week, Republicans have been trying to link Obama to what the IRS has acknowledged was improper extra scrutiny of conservative political groups seeking tax-exempt status. That’s despite the fact that little — if anything — has surfaced to suggest White House officials had advance knowledge of the IRS actions. The line between IRS misconduct and the Oval Office appears less fuzzy in IRS political incidents in previous administrations.

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner, whose career in public life came to an abrupt end when he sent lewd pictures to a college student on Twitter, jumped back into politics on Wednesday by announcing a bid for mayor of New York City. “Look, I’ve made some big mistakes and I know I’ve let a lot of people down,” the Democrat said in a 2-minute video announcing his bid. “But I’ve also learned some tough lessons. I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”
