A man on his way home from work in downtown Washington, D.C. came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this traffic seems worse than usual. Nothing's even moving."
He noticed a police officer walking back and forth between the lines of cars so he rolled down his window and asked, "Excuse me, Officer, what's the hold up?"
The Officer replied, "The President is just so depressed about the corruption scandals, Iraq, and the economy, that he stopped his limo in the middle of the freeway and he's threatening to douse himself in gasoline and set himself on fire. He says the country hates him and he can't quit because he hasn't a big enough pension to retire. I'm walking around taking up a collection for him".
"Oh really? How much have you collected so far?" "So far only about twenty gallons but I've got a lot of folks still siphoning."
