A Little Political Humor...!
I figured that there must be something besides the politicians to laugh at during this election time! There is and I found a bit of it!
Let's face it! We need all the grins we can get before the elections...because we all know that the real laughs will come after the elections, when we see just what and who managed to get put into office!
Are you ready? Then here we go...!
Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly and for the same reason."
-- Author unknown
"Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy."
-- Earnest Benn
"When I was a boy, I was told that anybody could become president; I'm beginning to believe it."
-- Clarence Darrow
"Democracy is being allowed to vote for the candidate you dislike least."
-- Robert Byrne
"If you can't convince them, confuse them."
-- Harry Truman
"You can lead a man to Congress, but you can't make him think."
-- Milton Berle
"The problem with political jokes is they get elected."
-- Author unknown
"The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work and then they get elected and prove it."
-- P.J. O'Rourke
"When I was on my way to the podium, a gentleman stopped me and said I was as good a politician as I was an actor. What a cheap shot!"
-- Arnold Schwarzenegger
"The first presidential debate was down in Florida. Residents spent all day putting plywood on their televisions."
-- David Letterman
"Asking an incumbent member of Congress to vote for term limits is a bit like asking a chicken to vote for Colonel Sanders."
-- Bob Inglis
"If elected, I will win."
-- Pat Paulsen
It's a shame that the upcoming elections don't hold a promise of better leaders and a better future...but take my word for it, boys and girls, any light to speak of in our future will be furnished by us!
Don't look to any government agency, elected officials, or any one person that has the stench of politics hanging over them like a dark, foreboding cloud! Regardless of whatever promises, bribes, or rewards they may offer...all you need to do is to look back at past performance, and learn the lessons that history provides!
Those that don't learn from history, are doomed to repeat it!
Now, my friends, let's get some fresh coffee and sit outside for a bit! There's a bit of history that bears repeating, for sure!
