-Add The Foo Fighters to the long list of musicians who have had their music lifted by the Mccain camp. 

“It’s frustrating and infuriating that someone who claims to speak for the American people would repeatedly show such little respect for creativity and intellectual property. The saddest thing about this is that ‘My Hero’ was written as a celebration of the common man and his extraordinary potential,” the Foo Fighters said in a statement. “To have it appropriated without our knowledge and used in a manner that perverts the original sentiment of the lyric just tarnishes the song. We hope that the McCain campaign will do the right thing and stop using our song — and start asking artists’ permission in general!” 

The list includes The Foo Fighters, John Mellencamp, Jackson Browne, Heart, Boston and Eddie Van Halen.
