That Vandenhoovel (?) girl is a fool. She equates being on the right with being backwards. Somebody needs to buy her a clue.

My local paper tried to tie Roberts to the 2000 FL recount (front page headline, no less) and failed miserably.

Nope now that the idea has been planted some MSM will report on it,in fact wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't come out about 6 mos for the 2006 election.

From the lips of Chrissy Hynde herself:

"In light of Rush Limbaugh's vocal support of PETA's campaign against the Environmental Protection Agency's foolish plan to test some 3,000 chemicals on animals, I have decided to allow him to keep my song, 'My City Was Gone,' as his signature tune and to donate all proceeds from the deal to further PETA's efforts in that regard" ...

Okay, I guess I was wrong at first. Here is "Rolling Stones's" spin on it:

http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/_/id/5923659?rnd=1121963621155&has-player=false

The standoff between CHRISSIE HYNDE and radio right-winger RUSH LIMBAUGH is finally over. Since 1984, Limbaugh had been using the "My City Was Gone," the Pretenders lament about the mall-ification of America, without Hynde's consent. According to Hynde's manager, Limbaugh had not licensed the song for his nationally syndicated radio show, nor had he even asked for permission to use it -- something that didn't seem to bother Hynde all that much until Limbaugh told a pair of reporters in 1997 that "it was icing on the cake that it was [written by] an environmentalist, animal rights wacko and was an anti-conservative song. It is anti-development, anti-capitalist, and here I am going to take a liberal song and make fun of [liberals] at the same time." Last month, Hynde finally got Limbaugh to pull the song but then did an about face on Aug. 18, telling him that he could use the song if he donated all the royalties to the animal right's organization PETA, after PETA campaign manager Dan Mathews told her Limbaugh had a soft-spot for animals. She fired off the following missive to PETA to let them know of the recent developments. "In light of Rush Limbaugh's vocal support of PETA's campaign against the Environmental Protection Agency's foolish plan to test some 3,000 chemicals on animals, I have decided to allow him to keep my song, 'My City Was Gone,' as his signature tune and to donate all proceeds from the deal to further PETA's efforts in that regard".

It is clear at least that Hynde is donating the money to PETA for a very specific purpose that Rush agreed with.

"Hynde seems to be a left-leaning Libertarian, but mostly considers herself apolitical."

She is on record as having said she "hoped the muslims kick our asses".

could Rush be getting (gulp) married, by any chance?"

Well his divorce from Marta is final and he said yesterday he will be in France for a few days. Maybe a quick trip to the Eiffel Tower ala Tom Cruise?lol...

OUCH! I hadn't heard that a-hole statement.

I wonder who she thinks those muslims are going to come after first? (thinking of her "Last Of The Independence" album cover)

I don't think it's Pat. Seems to me the Pretenders, Chrisy Hine or something like that, unless he's changed it recently. I haven't tuned in forever.

Even if it stays in Vegas, the media will bring it to every TV and computer in the world. :P

I have no idea why Bush put Roberts name out so early.

I think Bush was going to put out Roberts name next week but when he found out Rush was gonna be outatown, he upped the date. Note the VP Cheney went on Rush's show first to discuss Roberts.

Also, Rush was rather lukewarm on Clement...wonder if that had any effect on Bush's decision?

I'm so glad he didn't go with "She Drives Me Crazy". I hear other talk-show hosts who open with that one and it sounds lame. It's hard to explain but somehow the bass-line on the Pretenders' song goes well with Rush's personality.
