Baptism by the G.O.P.  -- a Jack Larrison tweak...

A gal I know down South sent me a postcard the other day. It showed this photo of a sign-board with another insipid slogan -- you know the kind you see all over FaceBook and Google+ ; I call them "half-assed placards" -- and this one declared:

"My therapist set a glass half full of water in front of me and asked me, "Are you an optimist or a pessimist?"  I told her, "No I am a problem solver.  Then I drank the water down."

So I mailed the Southern lady back, returning her postcard, putting a blank mailing label over her caption.  Then I wrote this new caption for the therapist:

"Better to pour that water over her head and say, "I'm a Republican.  Welcome to trickle-down economics."
