One liners in an election year
If God wanted us to vote, he would have given us candidates.
The problem with political jokes is they get elected.
We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office.
If we got one-tenth of what was promised to us in these State of the
Union speeches, there wouldn't be any inducement to go to heaven.
Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even
where there is no river.
When I was a boy I was told that anybody could become President;
I'm beginning to believe it.
Politicians are people who, when they see light at the end of the tunnel,
go out and buy some more tunnel.
Why pay money to have your family tree traced; go into politics and your
opponents will do it for you.
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.
I offer my opponents a bargain: if they will stop telling lies about us, I will stop
telling the truth about them.
A politician is a fellow who will lay down your life for his country.
I have come to the conclusion that politics is too serious a matter to be left to
the politicians.
Instead of giving a politician the keys to the city, it might be better to change the locks.
There ought to be one day -- just one -- when there is open season on Congressmen.
