US State Refuses To Honour U2's Bono

At least one brand of officialdom aren�t falling over themselves to prostrate themselves at Bono�s feet � the US state of North Dakota has refused to honour the U2 singer.

Representative Scot Kelch had put up a resolution to honour Bono�s unstinting work �fighting poverty and disease in the Third World�, but the motion was kicked out.

Republican Gil Herbel admitted to being underwhelmed by the proposal saying when he first saw the name Bono he thought it referred to singer-songwriter turned politician Sonny Bono.

He says, �When I saw the resolution, I was looking for Cher's name in there.�
