This one isn't quite as good as the one Jay Morris came up with, but there
are certain similarities.  I confess I got a couple of phrases from him.  :)
I tried to make mine rhyme a bit, though, which was truly challenging.  It
was an interesting exercise.

Barbara and Dad adamant:
Attack, lad!
Act aghast and mad!
Amass arms and bad law!
Anthrax alarms and appals?
Allay anarchy as
fat cats stash cash!
Smash Afghans, Arabs, and Allah!
Alas, at Ramadan?
Bad karma?
Nay, say war fans.
Can ban samsara.
