Is America Going Downhill in a Nosedive?

This is better than saying ‘to hell in a hand-basket,’

isn’t it?

Things have come a long ways downhill in America

today. And it’s not all the fault of lawyers.

Senator Charles Percy was once asked, “How many

people work in Washington D.C.?” His reply was,

“Oh, I’d imagine about half.” He also said, “There

are more answering machines in Washington, and

fewer answers, than anywhere else.”

Ziggy, our cartoon friend, went to see his shrink. He

said he was fearful the government was out to get

him, and that he was being followed. He said he

might have a full blown phobia.

The shrink put him at ease saying:

“Ziggy, you’re cured!

The American Psychological

Association has just declared

that fear of the government

is no longer irrational.”
