Bono actually did a lot of good as the Mayor of Palm Springs.
He dismantled a corrupt good old boy network in the city planning
office and instituted alot of other reforms. He was also the
guy with the business smarts behind "Sonny and Cher", a
very lucrative franchise by any measure, and the only reason
Cher is a celebrity today. The copyright law he championed
is a bad law, but it's not all there is to his story by a
long shot.
