Sorry, Poor Deportee, but I'm ashamed to say I don't get the pun about Out of Our Idiot. I think it's a good album title, but is it a pun on another phrase, then? Thank god I'm not the only one! I don't get the pun either. Please explain. I've lived with that title for so many years that I can't se...
