[After listening to the Presidential address last night I thought some
humorous and pithy quotations might be in order. And more valuable that
what we heard for sure.]
Politics, n: from “poly ticks”, short for “many small bloodsucking insects”.
“Congress spends a billion dollars here and a billion dollars there. Pretty
soon this adds up to real money.”
“99% of the adults in this country are decent, hard-working, honest
Americans. It’s the other lousy 1% that get all the publicity. But then —
we elected them.”
“When I die, I want to be buried in Chicago so I can still be active in
politics.”
“Every American should have above average income, and my Administration is
going to see they get it.”
“I think Congressmen should wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers so we could
identify their corporate sponsors.”
“Americans always do the right thing, once they have exhausted all other
possibilities.”
“A statesman is a dead politician. This country needs more statesmen.”
“A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support
of Paul.”
I don’t use the words “Democrat” and “Republican.” I use the words
“liberal” and “American.”
