Nevermind I will answer the question:
    You can go to nvu.com and download the tarball with the binary for 
Linspire in it. It is made for a different version of debian, but will work.
        nvu-0.50-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz
     I used the "root" terminal to extract the contents of that tar file 
to /opt/ (optionally you can use the regular terminal and sudo tar)
     It requires a library out of universe called libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 
(use synaptic to get this)
     To make sure it works, I tested from the regular user terminal with 
the following command:
            /opt/nvu-0.50/nvu
      If it runs without any errors, etc then you are ready to add it to 
your menu:
        Enter the menu where you want it to be and right click the menu, 
 select "Entire menu",. then "Add new item to this menu"
       Enter the name of you want to appear in the menu, enter where the 
program lives (/opt/nvu-0.50/nvu)
        Choose an icon
        You are done: You can now run NVU on your ubuntu.

NOTE: you can only add items to the submenu's and not in the primary menu.
