These Guns For Hire Re-hiring our newest Service Branch Forget about the CIA. Our mercenaries are in trouble Unless somebody hires them back, Blackwater's lost its daily double. First Iraqis kicked them out; accused the lads of murder. But murder's still their specialty, so what could be absurder. Fortunately Hillary knows what it takes to win So some taxpayer dollars have continued rolling in.
