Mr. McCain stop playing our music!!

AP, 'Jackson Browne sues McCain, RNC over song in ad': 'Jackson Browne doesn't want John McCain running on anything fueled by his lyrics. The singer-songwriter sued McCain and the Ohio and national Republican committees in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles on Thursday, accusing them of using his song 'Running on Empty' without his permission. The lawsuit claims the song's use was an infringement of his copyright and will lead people to conclude he endorses McCain. The suit says Browne is a lifelong liberal who is as well-known for his music as for being 'an advocate for social and environmental justice.'The advertisement mocks Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's contention that if U.S. drivers got regular tuneups and drove on properly inflated tires, they could save the same amount of oil that would be gained by offshore drilling. According to the suit, 'Running on Empty' plays in the background of the ad criticizing the remarks. Robert Bennett, chairman of the Ohio party, said the ad was pulled when Browne objected. ... McCain spokesman Brian Rogers disavowed the ad, saying it wasn't a product of the Republican presidential candidate's campaign.
