    Over five 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 Promised Land."

    Nearly 30 years ago, when Charlie Haughey increased welfare he said,

    "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land."

    Now Brian Cowan has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of Camels, and mortgaged the Promised Land!
