INTERESTING COMMENTS PERTAINING TO POLITICIANS
The oldest one I could find is from Plato.
“Those who are too smart to engage in politics punished by being governed by those who are dumber.”
Even back then we see things haven’t changed.
Carl Sandberg
“A politician should have three hats. One for throwing in the ring, one for talking through, and one for pulling rabbits out of if elected.”
Will Rogers
“With Congress every time they make a joke, it’s a law, and every time they make a law, it’s a joke.”
George O. Ludcke [an attorney]
“The candidate never wore diapers as a baby way back when: It seems that no one could ever pin him down, even then.
I particularly like this one based on the way members of the cabinet respond to questions.
H.L. Mencken
“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard.”
Does this sound familiar.
Lily Tomlin
“Ninety-eight percent of adults in this country are decent, hard-working. Honest Americans. It’s the other lousy two percent that get all the publicity. But then we elected them.”
She is very perceptive.
Harry S Truman
“My choice early in life was to either be a piano player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there’s hardly any difference.”
Mark Twain
“On a recently deceased politician—I did not attend his funeral; but I wrote a nice letter saying I approved of it.”
Mark Twain
“Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress, but I repeat myself.”
My favorite.
I found a history of quotations of all places on the internet, which did not surprise me. As time goes by, I will publish more of those that I find appropriate.
