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."

We love it here. I came out from the Midwest to go to the U of A. After we married we moved back to Milwaukee for a bit but returned here to Tucson in '98 for good.

(Remember Little Abner's was in the middle of nowhere? Not anymore! I just said to my husband I want to go to Ye Olde Lantern soon)

I had to ask my husband which mine he worked at briefly before I met him...ASARCO.

Looks like ol' Linda has replaced Rock with Pork, but there looks to be plenty of Roll left over....

More evidence that we aren't in the 70s anymore.

Judging from that pic, it's more like the 270s.

When has she ever? I think one with "You`re no good" which is fitting for her.

She has had a great career and did some great interpretations of some great somgs. The cover art for her Hasten Down the Wind and Greatest Hits albums "inspired" many a teenage boy in the 1970s.

She has always been a shallow minded, knee jerk, coked out left winger. But she did do a lot of great music over a long period of time.

I recall a concert Grace Slick did in the Baltimore Civic Center with the Jefferson Starship (this was after the Jefferson Airplane) in the late 60s. At one point, she said, "The people here have told me I can't say certain words on stage. Well, you know what I say to that? F*** it." With a long, drawn out F***. That brought down the house, which was filled with all us little rebels, most of whom were living off mommy's and daddy's money.

Those were the days, my friends, We thought they'd never end.

Obviously, Jabba the Hutt's sister has no clue what "impeachment" means.

I may have to give up all "artists" to maintain my sanity...

[Sloth]

She wants Dick Cheney to be President? Well, OK, I could live with that.

"Sorry, but this service has suffered an unrecoverable error of some sort"
Guess some of us made our feelings re: Ms. Fatstadt known!:)
