Santa Obama has arrived. He gave me an Obama phone, put me on his list for SSI, gave me food stamps, paid most of my rent, helped me get a Link card, paid for all my tattoos and made sure I get some relief money. He even offered me a job but I turned him down because he already gave me too much.

Doesn't this sound just like ol' empty suit Santa? Thank goodness for Christmas. Tis better to receive than to give. Let's tax that rich guy who in all probability worked hard to get where he or she is in society.

We have more than enough people called slackers in the Bible. Slackers in biblical times didn't get the treatment that our present-day slackers get. No work, no food was the motto there.

We are not to worry, though, because old Santa Obama will give you the coat off the rich man's back.

A Merry Christmas to all.
