3. No It's Anywhere "Over There"

Where that is, is a matter of opinion, at the moment, among the war mongers. At times it appears to have similarity to a Chinese menu. One from country A but also a side war with B,C, and or D. They want to cover as much ground as possible to those troublesome peace people back home, to try and convince them that war is needed,wanted, a good deal.
Scan the news any given week and you will see them dropping names off their forked tongues about which country is next or should be included.
The only things they don't talk about is who is going to finance the next rodeo and they can't explain why there isn't any money to fix that crumbling bridge, allow seniors to eat AND pay their bills or allow everyone who gets sick to be able to see a doctor, but they can always cough up the bucks for war.
