I was watching the news - I forget which channel, I surf a lot - and someone called Rep. Charles Rangel, who is advocating a reinstatement of the military draft, a fool. I was deeply touched by the patriotic attitude.

 

Ah, Patriotism
 
Have you gone daft?
Bring back the draft?
Nobody’s exempt?
I never dreamt…

 

I support the troops,
but this fruit loop
wants me to be one!
I’m quite undone!

 

Me, carry a gun
in that desert sun?
What a crock;
you're off your block.

 

Sorry, my man,
I don't want a tan.
Don’t make me laugh;
you have gone daft.
