As American warplanes patrol the skies of Libya and American boots continue to keep the peace in Afghanistan, Iraq, Korea, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, Spain, Cuba, the Netherland Antilles, and more than 140 other countries, the international Interwebs recording sensation Remy unveils this timely song reminding all of us back on the home front about why they fight now.

    Remy in the front is like Obama, the guy on the drums is Biden, and the guy in the back singing is like Boehner.

    The guy in the back is like the annoying congressman who interjects with an annoying irrelevant comment. Watch my video on my channel I made about modern politics.
