Linda Ronstadt: Impeach Bush 'Right Away'

1970's songbird Linda Ronstadt, best known for her torch song-style and mellow ballads, is working overtime these days trying to persuade her fellow Arizonans that it's time to dump President Bush "right away."

In an interview broadcast on Saturday, Ronstadt was in the middle of explaining to WABC Radio's Mark Simone why she prefers living in Arizona to Los Angeles or New York, when she added one caveat.

"The politics are very conservative here and I'm not conservative. I'm having a hard time sometimes convincing people that we need to vote for a new president," she offered.

When Simone begged to differ, the singer insisted, "We need a different president right away, I think. I think we should impeach this one [rather than wait for] the next election."

Asked if she could support Sen. John Kerry despite his admission that he committed war crimes in Vietnam, Ronstadt told Simone, "I don't know about that? He might be a little more understanding of what these guys [U.S. GIs in Iraq] are going through."

"Love has no Pride,"

To clear up some confusion, Linda did have a heroin Jones that she kicked in the early 70's.

She had not been heard from in a while since "Love Has No Pride" (written by Libby Titus BTW) floored me and many others.

I went to my first Neil Young concert at the Omni in Atlanta (Which became the "Time Fades Away" album) and before he came on, with the lights down low, he announced, "We've got a special guest who's been away", and out of that darkness came a beautiful, clear, a cappella "I've had bad dreams.....too many nights....to think that they, don't mean much anymore".

Goosebumps, dude....goosebumps.

Canciones de mi Padre.....

Calsones de mi Padre (as we say it in our house...makes the kids laugh) is a favorite. We suffered through her being Gov. Moonbeam's main squeeze back in the days when ol' Jerry used to drive that old Dodge and sleep on a mattress in the gov's mansion.

Take care what you ask for.

Yeah, you'd think these libs would have learned their lesson after stealing the Missouri election from Ashcroft.

...Yer right. But, It's time someone should put a microphone in her mouth and shut her up. Might work on all these other folks that are frequently around microphones...

...So, tell us, what do you have to say? "Uugghuuuppggghh." Yea, I agree...

You mean she got out of Jerry "Moonbeam" Brown's bed long enough to do a radio interview?

"Which song: "I Don't Know Much" or "You're No Good?""

Can't remember it's name, but there was a truckin' song on my "Heart Like a Wheel" 8-track that had a line "Takin' the back roads so I don't get weighed...."

Why do people who take millions from the common people so dense? She's not very educated is she? Do you think she fried some brain cells with drugs way back when...?

The song was "Willin"...written by Lowell George of the band Little Feat

And I've been from Tucson to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonopah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the backroads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me weed, whites and wine
And you show me a sign
And I'll be willin' to be movin'

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you. I had no idea she was still alive. If I was a Dem I would be a little worried that old Linda can't even drum up support for Kerry with her friends. I assume she's not hanging out with too many right wingers and still can't convince them to vote Kerry. Maybe she is spending too much time eating.

Whew! Take me back to the time of the "Before" shot, I'd have to take the risk. What are the odds we'd still be together after 30 years, anyway?

"Why should we listen to an ex-singer with two brain cells"

There's this PSA running with a musician, saying something like "....and I'm on 'Behind the Music', and if I was doing drugs...I'd be a burned ou footnote".

Or something to that effect. I don't think I'm the target demo. I'm suffering from too many sympathy/empathy
appeal overload ads right now, and I tune them out.

With Linda, it appears the ad is about 40 years too late.
