    This has a Dr. Seuss feel to it.

    If you can’t stand

    Feel free to stand

    Behind the troops

    In front of my Ram

    If you can’t sit

    Feel free to sit

    Behind the Sneetch

    In front of the cliffs

    If you can’t walk

    Feel free to walk

    Behind the Zax

    In front of the stalks

    if you can’t stand, feel free to stand, behind our troops in front of my Ram

    so he’s running down the troops, but wants to prop up a disabled person to take down first?

    He means “stand by our troops” by denying them healthcare, making sure any military money goes to defense contractors instead of pay, and abandoning them as soon as they get home. Also, 20 years ago it meant sending them to Iraq for some reason.
