As you may have noticed, every Sunday I try to post something humorous. Its roots stem from my childhood. As a kid, every Sunday I would read the comics section of my father’s copy of the Sunday paper. A true downside of the internet is I do not read any of the Sunday papers, it’s not necessary. The plus side is I do not have to tie up bundles of paper every week for disposal. While I do not receive the Sunday papers, I still try to start my Sundays with humor. As the title of this piece informs, I decided to share some funny political quotes.

Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedies.

—Groucho Marx ”Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.”

—Mark Twain “I haven’t committed a crime. What I did was fail to comply with the law.”

—David Dinkins, New York City Mayor.

Every two years the American politics industry fills the airwaves with the most virulent, scurrilous, wall-to-wall character assassination of nearly every political practitioner in the country – and then declares itself puzzled that America has lost trust in its politicians. —Charles Krauthammer 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 It isn’t pollution that’s harming the environment. It’s the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.

—Dan Quayle

Those who are too smart to engage in politics are punished by being governed by those who are dumber. —Plato The ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen.

—Winston Churchill

On qualifications desirable for prospective politician. My choice early in life was either to be a piano-player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there’s hardly any difference.

—Harry S. Truman Too bad that all the people who really know how to run the country are busy driving taxi cabs and cutting hair.

—George Burns
