NY Former Congressman Says McCain and Bush Had No Respect for Private  Property or Rule of Law
When John McCain and George W. Bush disregarded intellectual property laws  just as William Walker had disregarded the sovereignty of Central American  nations, a pattern of 'the hell with you, what's yours is mine' became so  obvious that it could not be disputed," said John Hall.  John Hall was the  New York Congressman  and a founder of the group Orleans.  Their song Still The One is an American  Rock and Roll classic and both Republicans, McCain and Bush, took Hall's song  for their own campaign's music without bothering to ask 'whose is this?'" said  Hall.
"Their thievery goes to the heart of all that is wrong with America," said  Hall.  "Our ancestors came to these shores to create a new life where freedom,  honor, justice and liberty were to be respected.  These guys are nothing but  filibusterers like William Walker whose treachery was confronted in California  and then in Central America.  They take what is not theirs and smile at you  while they spit in your eye.  It's high time we put them where they belong.   Behind bars.  Why?  Because as far as the American people are concerned we're  Still the One!" said Hall
When asked if John Hall would support an effort by the group Central  Americans for the Exhumation and DNA Analysis of William Walker's Remains which  is pushing for removal of William Walker's body from the  Cementerir Viejo in  Trujillo, Honduras so that his DNA can be compared with that of the George W.  Bush, John Hall said, "what a great idea!"
