GOP gets C&D for the use of song BARRACUDA ...
 
Good thing the GOP is the party of "values" :1orglaugh

Quote:
Ann and Nancy Wilson are pissed at the Republican Party and have fired off a cease and desist letter to the McCain/Palin campaign.

Specifically, the Heart women are upset that the GOP has used their classic "Barracuda" as a theme song for Sarah Palin. TMZ obtained a statement from Heart's rep, who says "The Republican campaign did not ask for permission to use the song, nor would they have been granted that permission."

The statement goes on: "We have asked the Republican campaign publicly not to use our music. We hope our wishes will be honored."

We're told Ann was watching TV today and heard the song at the convention when Palin was touted.

UPDATE: Twenty minutes after we posted this story, the GOP ended the evening after McCain's speech with the song, "Barracuda."

LOL at the comments, especially this one from Mary from West Virginia.

"Both women are one-hit wonders! They should be THANKFUL that the REPUBLICAN PARTY felt sorry for their dismal careers and encouraged their group by playing their song!! Go John McCain and Sarah Palin. Mary from West Virgina"

McCains whole run for president is based on fraud. He used your tax money to illegally get on the ballot in many states. But no one cares.

The McCain campaign tried the same thing with Jackson Browne and Van Halen songs. You'd think they would eventually learn that they have to get permission.

Intellectual property and copyright should be respected. I'd sue their frikken asses off

Nice job - using a copyright infringement dispute to launch an unprovoked attack against talented musicians.

Perhaps that Virginian woman was too busy being fucked up the ass by her cousin to listen to the radio.

Heart has enjoyed a string of hits over the years and stations still play many of their old classics.
