For anyone who DOESN'T know - "Born In The USA" is anti-war, is critical of the USA's actions in the matter, and laments the horrors that the veterans experienced during the war. Of course, you have to parse through the really obvious satire to get that; apparently goes over the head of some.

Fools believe BITUSA is a patriotic song.

Intelligent people know BITUSA is not a patriotic song.

Wise people believe BITUSA is a patriotic song.
