Some wise men once said
The problem with political jokes is they get elected.
~Henry Cate, VII
We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office.
~Aesop
If we got one-tenth of what was promised to us in these acceptance speeches, there wouldn't be any inducement to go to heaven.
~Will Rogers
Those who are too smart to engage in politics are punished by being governed by those who are dumber.
~Plato
Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river.
~Nikita Khrushchev
When I was a boy I was told that anybody could become President; I'm beginning to believe it.
~Clarence Darrow
Why pay money to have your family tree traced; go into politics and your opponents will do it for you.
~Author Unknown
Politicians are people who, when they see light at the end of the tunnel, go out and buy some more tunnel.
~John Quinton
Politics is the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich, by promising to protect each from the other.
~Oscar Ameringer
I offer my opponents a bargain: if they will stop telling lies about us, I will stop telling the truth about them.
~Adlai Stevenson, campaign speech, 1952
A politician is a fellow who will lay down your life for his country.
~Texas Guinan
Any American who is prepared to run for president should automatically, by definition, be disqualified from ever doing so.
~Gore Vidal
I have come to the conclusion that politics is too serious a matter to be left to the politicians.
~Charles de Gaulle
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.
~Ronald Reagan
Instead of giving a politician the keys to the city, it might be better to change the locks.
~Doug Larson
Don't vote, it only encourages them.
~Author Unknown
There ought to be one day - just one - when there is open season on senators.
~Will Rogers

IDEOLOGY MAKES A DIFFERENCE......who do you agree with?
“If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen,”
- Barack Obama
“Society does not consist of individuals, but expresses the sum of interrelations, the relations within which these individuals stand.” – Karl Marx
“Production itself changed from a series of individual into a series of social acts, and the products from individuals to social products. The yard, the cloth, the metals that now came out of the factory were the joint product of many workers through whose hands they had successfully to pass before they were ready. (No one person could say of them: “I made that; this is my product.”) – Fredrick Engels
“All our lives we fought against exalting the individual, against the elevation of the single person, and long ago we were over and done with the business of a hero, and here it comes up again: the glorification of one personality. This is not good at all.” – Vladimir Lenin
“Comrades, we must abolish the cult of the individual decisively, once and for all.” – Nikita Khrushchev
“We must affirm anew the discipline of the Party, namely: 1) the individual is subordinate to the organization; 2) the minority is subordinate to the majority; 3) the lower level is subordinate to the higher level; and 4) the entire membership is subordinate to the Central Committee. Whoever violates these articles of discipline disrupts Party unity.” – Mao Zedong
