I wonder if he ever considers the fact that if Linda Ronstad hadn’t been their lead singer, the Stone Ponies would have died the death of the one-hit-wonders and there would be no Eagles.

I think "The Dude" said it best:

"I hate the F***ing Eagles, man."

I think he and Rondstadt are friends, and share similar political views.

Remember Linda got booed at her concerts in 2004 for dedicating songs to Michael Moore (called him a patriot - ha.) and Henley got booed for talking about his friend Linda Rondstadt and his political views.

She also raised more than a few hackles by saying that she didn’t want to sing for Republicans and Christians (I think it was), and that she would rather not know if they were in her audiences.

Despite it all, Rondstadt is one of the few lefties for whom I’ll ignore misguided philosophy to enjoy her music...same for The Eagles as a group. I can ignore their politics and continue to enjoy the music - unless it becomes such an issue that I have to take a break from them until their focus returns to their music rather than politics.
