Music Legend Tony Bennett on 9/11 and US Foreign Policy

While people may be familiar with the music legacy of jazz singer Tony Bennett, they probably aren’t familiar with his politics.

Yesterday, on the Howard Stern show, Bennett, when confronted by the misogynist Howard Stern, told the radio audience about a private conversation he had with President George W. Bush. Bennett when on to challenge Stern who wanted to blame the war on terror on the people who hit the World Trade Center, by saying, “they flew the planes, but we caused it……..we were bombing them first.”
