On Saturday night, singer Linda Ronstadt was fired after she ignited a near-riot ("guests...spilled drinks, tore down posters and demanded their money back") at the Aladdin casino in Las Vegas for dedicating the song "Desperado" to Fahrenheit 9/11 director Michael Moore. We can almost see the scene...Republican conventioneers, livid that their little respite from losing their capital gains tax savings to the roulette wheel has been interrupted, push their hookers to the floor and threaten to burn the place down.

By the way: Who's Linda Ronstadt? And how long before she and Whoopi Goldberg wind up with their own topless musical review up the Strip at the Paris? Even the fake, casino French eat that anti-Bush stuff up.

UPDATE: More from a witness.
