Thumbs up Wise Old Indian

Recently someone was browsing through the 40th Anniversary
Issue of Reader's Digest (dated Feb. 1962), came across this
reprint from the Washington News, and found it quite interesting
in light of our current debates.

The quote reads:

Vice President Lyndon Johnson received the following message
from a Native American Indian Chief on a reservation:

"Be careful with your immigration laws. We were careless with ours."

I was thinking of the anti-littering campaign in the 70's with the indian on the side of the road crying looking at all the trash dumped by cars going by. I didn't know there was a painting.

Tonto replied - What you mean we white man.

Welcome rowdy! Since we are indian jokes:

Bob's flying down the highway in his Cadillac on a hot summer day in Az.,when he sees an elderly indian man walking along the road. He stops and asks the guy if he wants a ride. The old indian warily climbs into the iron horse and they take off. Bob want's to show off a bit so he runs'er up to 70. the old indian grunts and says, "Mmm, horse go too fast!". Bob tells him to calm down because it makes the car run cooler and speeds up to 90. The indian says "Mmm, too fast!" Bob tells him not to worry because it makes the car run cooler and speeds up to 100. The indian is getting pretty concerned by now and tells Bob to stop and let him out.
When he gets to his village, he borrows his brothers horse and heads out into the desert at top speed. Two hours later he walks back into town. His brother asks "where's my horse?" The old man grunts and says "Mmm, da mn horse froze to death!"
