Actually, Bono, I think he is saying that those who read it were more likely to vote yes. That does not necessarily make it any more correct, and that part about "re-education" is rather an extreme stretch of what he said.
Thanks for correcting my spelling. I always had this patological fear of hiphens I try to fight, but sometimes my head is not strong enough to cut that out.
Second, I think the word "possibly" is indicative that it was an extreme stretch, done for shock value more than anything else, I willingly admit so.
