Land of the Free? Home of the Brave?

Are imposing quarantines because we've gone insane.
Fearful of the people most deserving of our praise...
I don't think the homeland's looking very brave these days.

This is not Liberia; with many dead or dying
And it only serves to keep the help they need from flying.
We stuck one nurse in a tent out in a parking lot
Without any proof Ebola's really what she's got.

Only one man treated in America has died;
Still, our politicians feel the need to pick a side.
Never mind what experts say; when everyone's afraid
Chickens roam the land where deer and antelope once played.
