Why I'm Depressed

[High EGT]

You wanna know why I'm depressed, I'll tell ya why I'm depressed . . .

Over 5 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 promise land."

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

Today, Obama has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the
price of camels and mortgaged the Promise Land!

I was so depressed last night thinking about Health Care Plans, the
economy, the wars, lost jobs, savings, 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 . . . ?

. . . thanks Linda

I remember this from the late 70's (Of course with out the Obama and Health care reference and Pakistan)

I was a "student aid" at AIB/TSD on the base. Boy was that an awakening for a 17 year old farm girl.
