War, what is it good for?*
Posted by Anon under I see with my little eye , Sturm und drang , What were they thinking?!? , Thoughts , CultureThis is for everyone who had the courage to stand up and protest today.
Support our troops –
- bring them home:
Magnetic Yellow Ribbon on My S-U-V
(sung to the tune of, “Tie a yellow ribbon ‘round the old oak tree”)
I’m staying home, won’t go to war.
You can fight
for my right
to guzzle gas some more.
There ain’t no rhyme or reason
to put my butt at risk.
In the dollar we trust
you’ll never see us
across the deep blue sea
Magnetic yellow ribbon on my S-U-V
Magnetic yellow ribbon on my S-U-V
Means you go to war
But no, not me.
You can stay on the bus
Forget about us
I won’t be an amputee
Magnetic yellow ribbon on my S-U-V
You go to war, I’m stayin’ home.
You can fight,
For my right,
To guzzle gas some more.
Magnetic yellow ribbon on my S-U-V
Means you stay on that bus,
Forget about us,
You can have that old Humvee.
Magnetic yellow ribbon on my S-U-V
*Absolutely nothing!

[…] Now, back to a situational values-based society where we can buy that SUV and slap a ’support our troops’ yellow magnetic ribbon on the back and not feel hypocritical at all. We can call ourselves ‘pro-life,’ but embrace the concept of the lethal injection (wasn’t it Rep. Barney Franks who said that Republicans support life: from conception to birth?). We can rationalize ourselves right every time. […]
