Raising money for charity work, medical care for sick and dying people, rape crisis centers, autistic boy scouts, the Dream Foundation (which grants wishes to terminally ill adults). What a commie rat this guy is!
Now, we do other ones, we do,
Just one Democrat fundraiser of hundreds over the decades. But as I said earlier, you, and other defenders of Mr. Cosby will gloss over this.(8/7/00, 6 p.m. ET) - It seems Al Gore has the beat Americans want from their government--from rock musicians, anyway. A host of artists--including Eagles Don Henley, Timothy B. Schmit, and Glenn Frey, as well as Jimmy Buffett, Lenny Kravitz, Macy Gray, Sheryl Crow, Bette Midler, Crosby*, Stills & Nash, and Jon Bon Jovi-- have signed on to perform at a New York fundraiser for the Vice President. The concert, scheduled for September 14 at Radio City Music Hall, will raise money for the Democratic National Committee and Gore's bid for the presidency.
Over the years, Henley has become something of a political activist, speaking out for various causes and about issues in our country that he feels need to be addressed. He told LAUNCH what he thinks about the state of politics today. "The world could use a lot of improvement," said Henley. "You know, it's funny--we don't have the Russians to kick around anymore, so the Cold War has become more insidious and more inward. The Cold War is in Washington now: It's partisan politics, Republicans and Democrats fighting like petty schoolboys."

I'm trying to remember what Rush Limbaugh has been arrested for... Oh! That's right! NOTHING!My opposition to the war on drugs and the war on guns is principled, not selective. The laws should be changed so that neither leftwing rock singers nor rightwing talkshow hosts not bodega owners nor any adult should ever fear an arrest for possessing a handgun or "controlled substances."
