I agree with you on many many or your points, however, as a nation there is a sense of unity that is part of the Superbowl, and a sense of loss, especially in the boston area, who lost so many on the flights to NYC..and the band had strong ties to the US, I didn't find their perfomance jingoistic, and bono's been wearing that flag jacket since prior to sept 11....but I can kinda see where you are coming from, but I felt they honored those who died and also their music said that we are still alive and there are still reasons to celebrate...personally i found their set moving...
