Sure Cure For a Sick Nation

Alas, we've elected bozos on both sides to again guide the nation! (Some folks are sobbing in their ale, others are filled with jubilation!) To rid this great nation of such knaves, here is what I would propose: Elect retired noncoms who are well qualified to lead, heaven knows! Noncoms are known for their integrity and by the way, lead from the front! They don't take shhhtuff from anyone and are known to be rather blunt! There should be a crusty Master Chief to head the Navy overseeing the fleet, And a Marine Gunny Sergeant should occupy every congressional seat! A Staff Sergeant who's been in the trenches should be the Secretary of Defense. Chief Master Sergeants qualify for the oval office (Obama, take no offense!) Sergeants First Class would eminently qualify for the Secretary of Labor. They'd put deadbeats to work so as not to mooch off their neighbor! There's a horde of Navy Petty Officers who'd qualify for Treasury Secretary, Who've faithfully paid their taxes unlike some Yale czars to the contrary! There's a brigade of Sergeants Major who'd excel as the Secretary of State, Who'd tell other nations where to go if they didn't deal with us straight! Master and Technical Sergeants are well qualified to occupy a governor's chair. Their prime concern is the welfare of folks, not just building castles in the air! Retired Noncoms are a special breed who believe in and uphold the Constitution! Patriots who'd oust the current clowns, some of whom qualify for a mental institution! Robert L.
