Much like Haggard's "Okie from Muskogee" this song is satire. It is poking fun at the jingoistic, "patrotic" person who thinks opposition to war amounts to treason.
@bugo Wrong. Some journalist managed to get Haggard to call them "satire" at one point but that was not what he had in mind, as is immediately obvious from anything else he has said about them. This song is 100% not poking fun at patriotic people.

@bugo neither of these songs are satirical. they're genuine.
