Bruce Springsteen stopped the Reagan campaign from using Born in the U.S.A. 
during the '84 election (not that it affected the outcome).  I think it 
would be quite appropriate for the Oils either to see if Rush's 
organization is either abusing the copyright, or if they are not, either 
publicly asking him to stop using it/shaming him not to use it and 
pressuring their publishing company not to sell it to Rush.

I'm sure Rush has no problem with Pine Gap (a U.S.-sponsored nuclear 
installation in Oz, I believe) or Big Macs.
