Saturday Morning Ponderings II

“One thing I have found over the years is that many people have the attitude: 'Don't confuse me with the facts, my mind is made up.' Having a prolonged argument with people like that is like the fellow banging his head against a wall; he walked away with blood on his face and a headache... the wall was unfazed.”

“I’ve heard it said that politics is for the birds; a bird works from dawn to dark for its own survival – I’d say that was true of politicians, too.”

“A fellow I know compares politicians to strippers: ‘A whole lot of wiggles, winks and empty promises.’”

“They say a politician keeps his finger in the wind – lately, I’d say their fingers are firmly planted somewhere else.”

“Politics can be compared to the Animal Kingdom: Republicans are like coyotes – they run in packs chasing a solitary rabbit; making a lot of racket for a minimal gain.

Democrats are like birds – a lot of flapping and squawking just to end up pooping in their own nest.”

“It’s a sad commentary on American society that more people are interested in the next ‘American Idol’ than who’s running the country.”

“Elections nowadays seem to be based on advertisements – if you have slicker ones and more of them, you win. Somehow, selecting the leadership of our government like we select our toothpaste doesn’t make a lot of sense.”
