[bodytext] => Misfired Patriot missile hits farm in Qatar Reuters - Tuesday, October 16, 2007 WASHINGTON - U.S. forces in Qatar accidentally fired a Patriot missile at a farm in the Gulf Arab state but caused no injuries, the Pentagon said on Tuesday. The U.S. military is investigating the missile launch, first reported by Al Jazeera television. The Patriot is an anti-missile system. 'Those things are not supposed to accidentally discharge,' said Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman. 'It was not supposed to happen.' Whitman said the missile was fired into an unpopulated farm area. Calm down folks! There’s no need for alarm! Our misguided patriot only hit a farm Yes, I know we flew a nuke across the states and in our hands lie all your fates But you know you can trust us, ‘course you can! Look at the Commander in Chief, he’s the man He may sometimes seem cock-eyed but that’s just a squint I tell you his brain is FIXED! It’s in a splint! Of course you can trust us even though we lied And I’m sure our WMD are now hog-tied! The world all hates us and Iraq is a mess But you feel safer now you have to confess You have to confess ‘cause we’ve got you on tape And if you refuse to do it we’ll accuse you of rape Come on, say it... for Big Brother, please If not we’ll blindfold you down on your knees Waterboarding’s not torture. Do you like water sports? Now say what we want, don't believe the reports! Everything’s lovely! We’re safe and secure! Now, what’s that smell...? Farmyard manure...?
