WHY YOU COULD BE DEPRESSED!!



Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel , "Pick up your shovels, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the
Promised Land."

Nearly 75 years ago, (when Welfare was introduced) F. D. Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land."

Today, Congress has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of Camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!

I was so depressed last night thinking about Health Care Plans, the economy, the wars, lost jobs, savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc . .. .
I called a Suicide Hotline. I had to press 1 for English.  I was connected to a call center in Pakistan. I told them I was suicidal.  They got excited and asked if I could drive a truck......

Folks, we're screwed !!

  1. Good grief! Talk about recycling: I first saw this aimed at LBJ. (It was mimeographed.) (Yes, I'm old.) (No, not old enough to have voted against FDR!)
