Assorted Bits of Wisdom
from the
University of Common Sense

SEX EDUCATION - - - OR - - - "INDOCTRINATION"

Sex education in our schools might be okay with me
If they tempered talk of sex with plain morality.

Abstinence 'til marriage and then, fidelity
If that's old-fashioned common sense, old-fashioned let it be.


WHY ARE WE REACHING FOR THE STARS?

Today I heard our President say: "We've got to get to Mars."
But, are we sure our goal in life is reaching for the stars?

Our romance with the heavens costs a monstrous buck
While human problems go untended down here in the muck.


THE RICHEST GARBAGE IN THE WORLD

Americans produce the richest garbage in the world
Some industries pollute the land, we're always being told.

Destroying our resources guarantees that we will die
In wasteful, needless misery, and God will ask us: "WHY?"



REMEMBER WHEN GASOLINE COST 10 cents A GALLON?

American brains, American guts, American industry
Developed oil from desert sands where no wealth used to be.

We gave it to our Arab "friends" to spend in luxury
Now, we go begging
for our lifeblood - ENERGY!

Hang them
in the
Hall of SHAME!

TRAITORS
In Congress and Big
Business who made
us dependent on Arab
oil - and who gave
away our most vital
defense link, connect-
ing the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans

GIVING AWAY OUR SECURITY. . .

We built the Panama Canal to keep us safe from harm
To move our products overseas from factory and farm.

In one mad year we gave it all to Panamanian goons
Such a foreign policy will bring us down in ruins!


WE CAN'T FIX ALL THE WORLD'S MISERY. .

Sending food to starving folks - a fine and noble deed
But, it's quite impossible such miseries to feed.

Unless they practice birth control and fix their politics
They'll starve in multi-millions, in no way we can fix.


WANT SOME HARD FACTS ??
