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.

The flood of money
that gushes into politics
today is a pollution of democracy.

Some men change their party
for the sake of their principles;
others change their principles
for the sake of their party.

I offer my opponents a bargain:
if they will stop telling lies about us,
I will stop telling the truth about them.

We have plenty of Confidence in this country,
but we are a little short of good men
to place our Confidence in. -Will
Rogers

Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has
been concerned with
right or left
instead of
right or wrong.

The word ‘politics’ is derived from the word ‘poly’,
meaning ‘many’,
and the word ‘tics’, meaning ‘blood sucking parasites’.

Politics is the art of looking for trouble,
finding it whether it exists or not,
diagnosing it incorrectly,
and applying the wrong remedy.

Bad officials
are elected
by
good citizens
who do not vote.

I don’t make jokes.
I just watch the
government
and
report the facts.
